You’ve got to respect the commitment of this window display at Tre Mari Bakery

A white fondant cake covered with red fondant blood with a large black handled knife violently stuck on it. This is surrounded by fourteen white seance candles and a hand reaching for the cake. On the left side of the frame there is a ouija board and skeleton cookies

Bumble shark with bonus wooden standee 🐝 #art

An illustration of a bumble shark (bumblebee-shark hybrid), a creature that has the fuzziness of a bumblebee while retaining the body shape of a shark. It has six fins, a brown-and-yellow striped body, antennae, and wings. She is flying happily in front of lots of flowers pollinators love: sunflowers, lavender, carnations and daisies, in a little scene reminiscent of spring. Some colourful petals have fallen to the ground, and some very tiny bumblebees are also pollinating the flowers.

The same artwork made into a wooden standee.

With Halloween coming up, it's time for the reminder to avoid buying/using fake spiderwebs. They can entangle and entrap birds. There's some good alternative ideas on this web page ... birdlife.org.au/news/bird-sa...

Hey, I’m just asking questions. Ignorant questions, bigoted questions, questions that have been repeatedly answered for many years. Sorry, but I’m not listening to answers right now; I’m far too busy asking questions. It’s called being intellectually curious.

Instead of saying "I'm hungover" or "all the spicy peppers I ate last night are shredding my asshole apart" say this: "the sins of my past.... are catching up with me." Sounds way more ominous and badass

Original roughs for @magicwhistle.bsky.social's brilliant thought metaphor run. The capper on this hits like the first time EVERY time.

Three rough storyboard panels in graphite on yellow post-it.

PANEL 1: A Manager SpongeBob in a visor shouts at a harried Worker SpongeBob going through a file cabinet.
MANAGER: Hurry up! What do you think I'm PAYING you for?!
WORKER: You don't pay me! We don't even exist!

PANEL 2: Managerlooks shocked while Worker explains:
WORKER: We're just a clever visual metaphor used to personify the abstract concept of thought!

PANEL 3: Miffed Manager thumbs over his shoulder while Worker screams back, distressed.
MANAGER: One more crack like that and you're outta here!
WORKER: No! Please! I have three kids!

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:

Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads:

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

Friday at work

A comic made of four post it notes about people asking me if I'm afraid I'll be replaced by AI. The first panel asks "aren't you afraid AI will replace you at your job?". In the second panel I start thinking about a skull on a pedestal I saw yesterday. In the third panel me and my colleague are standing in front of it. My colleague asks "whose skull is that???" As I say "do we have a skull cleaning kit?". In the fourth panel I'm back to the present conversation and answer "I mean bitch can try."

Just off the coast of Deer Island, New Brunswick is Old Sow. The largest whirlpool in the Western Hemisphere, it is the size of a football field and has existed for hundreds of years. It also has quite an interesting history. This is the story. 📸 Walter Baxter 🧵 1/6
