#nihitober Day 2: Defect First of many Murderbot artworks this month will have #tmbd #murderbot #art #nihitober26

A traditional ink artwork showing the head and shoulders of Murderbot in its armour with the helmet sealed. There is a crack in the faceplate, spidering out through the right side. The left, unbroken side of the faceplate is coloured a solid dark blue. On the left side, each shattered piece of the faceplate shows an eye with a different expression. The bottom of the artwork is signed nihidea '26, at the top is handwritten 2 Defect.

#nihitober Day 1: Spiral jumping right in the deep end this year #art #bodyhorror #nihitober26

A square traditional ink artwork of a person tilting their head to the side and resting it in their hand. There are three spiral shaped protrusions on their head, one on the forehead, one on the cheek twisting up half of their lips, and one bulging out their left eye. There are also various spiral shaped protrusions and holes in their hand, neck and shoulder. The piece is black and white except for the person's eyes, which are bright blue, and a bright blue spiral in the background behind them. The piece is signed "nihidea '26" at the bottom, at the top is handwritten "1 Spiral".

A ringed gas giant and 2 rocky planets dominate the foreground. In the background are a field of stars surrounding a nebula where a new star has just been born.

Decided to paint a realistic Murderbot to help me figure out its face. Took me only 12h and 43 minutes and it still doesn't look quite right... 🫠 it does look good though! #tmbd #themurderbotdiaries #murderbot #art

A digital painting of Murderbot lounging deep in a soft blue chair. It has short, shaggy black hair, dark eyes and light brown skin shaded with harsh white lights. There is a light blue faintly glowing line running down its forehead, through its right eye and down the cheek to its jaw. Its expression is serious but neutral. It's wearing a black tank top and dark baggy pants. Its right arm is lying across its stomach, the left hanging over the armrest of the chair. In both its forearms closed gunports are visible, surrounded by a light blue faintly glowing border. In the background is a deep red panelled wall with the edge of a door just visible.

I finally finished my Yuri!!! on Ice art wall (3 years after moving in 😂). Most is @quelmdn.bsky.social art, with a hefty chunk of @nihidea.bsky.social, official art, and the rest is miscellaneous zine art and gifts.

friend and I were trying to figure out how exactly Three carries Murderbot at the end of Network Effect and suddenly this happened #tmbd #themurderbotdiaries #art

a black and white digital drawing of Three and Murderbot in the manner of the "woman holding man" meme, with Three in armor holding Murderbot perched on its hips with Murderbot's arms wrapped around its shoulders, and Three pointing warningly at an indistinct dark TargetContact figure. On Three's visor "ART sent me" is written in bright green letters. Murderbot has several projectile holes and is stained with blood and fluid.

I am here for you. Prints Licensing: xeniflowers@gmail Details in reply #art #DarkArt #B&WArt

digital black and white ink illustration, title at bottom: I Am Here For You. in the center is one hand from below grasping one above it by the wrist and pulling down. the top hand is coming out of an upside down dripping pit of black sludge. the bottom hand becomes a writhing, twisting mass of roots which are burrowing into the hand's wrist and wherever its arm would be. the entire piece is shaded with extremely fine contour hatching.

From Eldritch Elrics! haaa I wanna start posting this one so bad... #wordgamewednesday #fma

“Is that the kid?”, Havoc hissed next to him and Roy nodded absently, unable to tear himself away from that piercing stare.

“That’s him”, he muttered. He should say something. Greet him, walk down the stairs. Reluctance pinned him in place.

“What’s wrong with him?”

Havoc’s whispered words were unexpected enough to snap him out of it, turning his head to look at him with furrowed brows.

After a beat, Havoc’s eyes widened. “I don’t know why I just said that.”

Roy cleared his throat. “Maybe leave the talking to me”, he said, but he couldn’t quite ignore the voice that whispered at the back of his mind, that Havoc’s words hadn’t surprised him because they were inappropriate, but because he’d been thinking the exact same thing.

My most millennial gripe is the way fandoms and interest groups have moved into closed discord servers now. The children yearn for the forums, webrings, and livejournals of their ancestors.

time for my new favorite tumblr post

A tumblr text post by user nitewrighter, set up as a dialogue.

Me: I don't get it. I thought I was doing a lot better than I was a few years ago. I'm like 10 times more on top of things than I used to be. How does everything feel terrible now?

The Tiny Me in OSHA-approved Hi-Vis Gear Who lives in my brain and pulls all the levers: Boss, it's the fascism. You're completely gunked up with cortisol due to the fact that your entire daily life is now underscored with a haunting awareness of the rapid erosion of your rights, dignity, and any and all social safety nets, and you're also bearing witness to the most vulnerable people immediately being persecuted. This creates a natural stress response that basically means you're going to continue having memory and organizational problems, as well as emotional imbalances.

Me: BUT I HAVE A BULLET JOURNAL AND I MEDITATE NOW.

Tiny OSHA Me: BOSS, THE FASCISM.
