Three panel comic. Panel 1: on the set of the Jerry Springer show, a man sits in a chair. Jerry signals off-stage and says, “we have with us: your ancestor who crawled out of the ocean 375 million years ago!” Panel 2: the live studio audience is booing. Panel 3: security attempts to break up a fight between the man on stage, and his ancestor, a tiktaalik.

Day 4. No prompt. Unfinished sketch. I hiked at the state park and got tired while drawing trees. . #drawtober #hemlock
Colored pencil sketch of a very tall and slender hemlock tree with feathery branches. In the bottom left corner is an unfinished sketch of a sapling with yellow-green leaves.

Day 3. Ravioli play . #drawtober #drawingprompt
Colored pencil drawing of a brunette white woman standing in a pile of ravioli with a 5-gallon bucket of ravioli next to her. She is wearing a blue blindfold and a clear plastic coat over a blue top and gray leggings. Her body language is one of anguish: head thrown back, hair flying, one arm raised in a gesture of surrender, the other over her heart. She is splattered with saucy ravioli as more pasta flies towards her. Also in frame is an index card with collaged words that reads, “Take a washable outfit / Now you’re ready for ravioli play”

Day 2. Step on me, horsie . #drawtober #drawingprompt
Drawing of a sleeping person lying on the floor beside a telephone. A cat is standing on their back, kneading. The person is dreaming that a horse named Dr. Honse is walking on their back, thoroughly cracking it. Also in the picture is an index card with collaged words on it that reads “I’m dreaming of a 1250-pound horse.”

I don't normally subscribe to the "German has a word for it" thing because all languages can invent and borrow new words! That said, I can't stop thinking about "hobbyless" as an insult since I saw it a few days ago, so here you go It promotes a growth mindset!! www.tumblr.com/abbiistabbii...
user abbiistabbii: 
The Germans really cooked making "Hobbyless behaviour" an insult. It is both devastating, applicable to a wide range of people and behaviours, and doesn't resort to swearing.

Man ranting on the internet about the Superbowl halftime show or complaining that something is "woke"? Hobbyless Behaviour. Girls mocking another girl for not looking right? Hobbyless Behaviour. Mindless vandalism? Hobbyless Behaviour.

It is more powerful than "get a life" or the English "You're Sad" because it gets to the central point of the matter, and that is wonderful. Danke, Deutsch.

Haha brain problems
Drawing of a woman looking at her phone, smiling, and saying “heh”Drawing of the woman’s hands typing out a comment in reaction to something on Bluesky. A spiky sound effect bubble says “Post!”The woman, holding her phone limply, is suddenly consumed with regret and shame. Her eyes are wide and staring. She’s sweating.The woman, now blobby and even more scribbly than before, her eyes mere dots, has a blank expression as she says, “I am mentally ill”

Also if anyone other than me draws a single one of these I might expire? But don’t let that stop you, I long for the void.

I can never keep up with the October drawing prompts. So I made my own deck of them, that I may more fully disappoint myself this year. If anyone wishes to join me in this #drawtober quest, here are the first seven.

Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.
A crowded broadsheet with way too many fonts. It says:
Forget ChatGPT Flyers
Say it with 
Broadsheets
Unlimited fonts
Stretch them
Or cram a really long sentence into one line for no good reason
No whitespace
Mix capital and lowercase
Pointing hands
(They're called manicules!)
Don't be left behind

In my MFA writing program I saw the students/faculty who had experienced poverty become fetishized — *if* they were deemed aesthetically acceptable. The guy who grew up along the Monongahela and bought groceries at the dollar store got the cold shoulder.

When I was in high school I was a webcomic maniac but didn’t know about RSS. So I’d navigate to each individual site, read the latest update, check the creator’s blog posts, click the links to see their friends’ comics, add a comment, etc. It was wonderful!

Strix, a mixed-media artist who may have been an eco-terrorist in her distant past. Offers instruction to one or two students per year. The first week is spent in silent meditation on the shoreline, gathering whatever washes up. Week two is spent mimicking the sounds of the birds, wind, and water.

Charlene Silvertooth (I went to high school with a Silvertooth). Works with living trees. Best known for The Hunger, a small, ring-shaped apple orchard configured so that the trees create a living fence and make it impossible for humans to harvest the entire crop.
