me: why is everything a franchise these days? it’s tiring. also me, after drawing almost any sketch: okay but what if it was…~a series~ #traditionalart #illustration #kidlitart #childrenillustration #gouache #stars

@curtmega.bsky.social was absolutely right and i was not ready for the magic that is the proshot! digital ticket was amazing, but the cinematography of the proshot is next level. and everyone did such stellar job! congratulations on another banger!

Every writer whose work has been stolen should be allowed to visit the Meta offices and just take whetever they want. Office supplies, computers, chairs, people’s jackets and lunches, whatever. Give it.

Hey we made this. A whole lot of people worked to make something really weird and strange and unique and surreal as we explored our own existential dread through comedy. I hope you dig it. starkid.vhx.tv/products/spa...

its year 5 of getting hate messages about my Small Knight stories having a they/them protagonist. but its also year 5 of getting messages about how helpful it’s been for parents and kids to have a character to relate to. so. even one of the latter would outweigh 100 of the former imo.

so it’s currently around -10C where i’m at, but the anticipation of spring from everyone around and last week’s warm temps are giving me a terrible case of anxiety. every year i think i can’t become more of a human snowman, but apparently here we are

any thoughts you have after 10 PM, you want to ignore. those are your night thoughts and they are whispered lies. as for your day thoughts, best to ignore those too

i think there’s no escape from my day job. the new website after some structural changes within the university doesn’t have a resignation form available. all the forms are there, for students and teachers and staff, but not this one

a quick artistic approximation
two sketches of a stick figure. the first one is standing on a platform, giving a thumbs up. the second one is balancing on a tightrope shakily
