My boyfriend is long term fostering his neighbor’s rabbit while they study internationally and his cat is really not sure what to do with this solid black ball of fluff. Though it’s fair to say I’d probably die for both these girls.

Digital doodle of a tortie cat and black rabbit in a very simplistic style. The cat definitely has a RBF

When you and your boyfriend and your roommate and your roommate's boyfriend go hang out with some foxes and you take over 400 pictures (these ones are just some of the quick ones I got on my phone, got way more with an actual camera)

3 individuals sitting on a stump giving a black-furred red fox seem treats. The fox is propping herself up on the middle individual's knees to get to the treat

Close up of a red fox taking a treat through the bars of their enclosure

A brown-furred red fox up on its legs leaning against the bars of their enclosure trying to get treats from their owner of the fox sanctuary

I really like how this sketch page turned out so I have to share. One ref used for the rearing pose, I really just wanted what kind of poses I could do with just my memory

Digital sketch page of unicorns and one moth. They are in all kind of poses like jumping, bucking, and laying down.

Some assorted Fox Witch doodles

Digital doodle of two siblings. The older sister is messing up her younger brothers hair, both are laughing. Their friend stands behind them judging but also confused.

Digital doodle of a fox and young girl making faces at one another

A collection of doodles of Titra, a young girl and fox witch apprentice. She is seen just doing every day things like reaching for something on the high shelf, flinching away from a potion, and trying to keep herself warm with her cloak.

✨ Centipede Knight 🌙

Artwork of a fantasy character that from the torso down is a large centipede. The character holds a shield and has a long braid, wears a fancy feathered hat, and has a bouquet of flowers at his hip and other assorted bits on his belt. The back of his blouse is open, and the start of his carapace for his lower half is visible. His ears are long and pointed, and he has long antenna flowing back and curling at the ends. His carapace and skin are shades of blue with starry accents. His hair is white, and the rest of his outfit in in various shades of the same, plus black. His blue skin is dotted with stars as well. Minimal shading and soft gradients.

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things. Here’s a blurb on what I mean:

Some thoughts:
When using GenAi as a mood board you don't get sources. This means you deprive yourself from knowledge.
You generated a location? You deprived yourself of knowing more about the interesting parts of the world and why things came to be.
Generate an armor or costume? You deprived yourself on real world techniques, function, form and history.
You generated art inspirations? You deprive yourself of learning about artists from history or lock out living ones from potentially being hired.
Ethical issues of using GenAi models aside, one ends up making visuals mood boards devoid of reality and history. With it one deprives themselves from learning about our world and who is living in it, inadvertently making your work weaker, because of how detached it is from our shared human reality and history.

I sang publicly for the first time last night and I'm so glad I recorded it for a couple reasons, but partly because I can see my partner making faces at me like this when I'm not looking 🥰 he was so hella supportive about the whole thing

This is your reminder that Asexuality is a spectrum, meaning that just because someone is Asexual doesn't mean they're a sex negative puritan, and being sex positive doesn't dismiss one's asexuality. #Asexual #PrideMonth

Sex Positive: To have a positive attitude toward sex in general. Not necessarily for yourself, but any safe sex between consenting people.

Sex Neutral: To have no opinion on sex in general, neither positive nor negative.

Sex Negative: To have a negative attitude toward sex in general. To think sex is bad/wrong, even safe, and between consenting people.

Sex Favorable: To have a positive attitude toward sex for yourself. To desire sex.

Sex Indifferent: To have no opinion on sex for yourself neither positive nor negative

Sex Averse: To have a negative attitude toward sex for yourself. To not desire sex.

Sex Repulsed: To be repulsed by the thought of sex.

This should be the easiest boycott ever and if you can’t even satisfy this baseline level of solidarity then you have no right to question why we are all now under the gun.

Continuing from that last share, I was 28 when I found out I had lost 2/3 immunities from the MMR vaccine (discovered when getting blood work done for school) so it doesn't hurt to check even before 40!

"Things might be tough but it's great for artists! They'll create more!" You might not believe me but going through a lifetime's worth of stress Every Single Week for years and years- is actually not the optimal set of circumstances that inspires artists to create
