Here, my personal "how to make digital art with no drawing tablet" starter pack A USB image scanner goes for like $50-$80 on Amazon. Printer paper is like $10. Pencils are like $3. Paint .net is free, use the beizer curve tool to its max. These were my tools when I started digital art. #AntiAI

Sincerity is a precious resource The people providing it are just as valuable It would be far better to leave the world behind having reinforced the values you lived by and actually standing for something, than to spend your life painting over everything meaningful with irony and indifference.

Bluesky rolled out rules against dog-piling but I think we all understood that they meant dogpiling *by* trans people; dogpiling *on* trans people is still allowed and even encouraged.

A digital drawing of Asgore and Flowery on a long horizontal canvas. Flowery is on the far right, looking very happy. He holds his coat over one shoulder, while his other hand holds Asgore's. Asgore, in his Dark World appearance, looks distressed. He's dragged along by Flowery, while reaching behind him towards many papers, notes, and red string. Pink petals surround the two. The background is pink and yellow on the right, which fades to light gray on the left

As someone who has written for multiple of what people label as "the big indie animated shows", it's truly frustrating to only ever see the same few popular cartoons be discussed. There are so many different animated projects made by a vast sea of creators to explore. They deserve your attention!

We’ve got a great thing going with indie animation - but there’s a lot of incredible lesser-known talents out there, outside of your Glitch and Spindlehorse shows. The cool thing about indie stuff is it can come from anyone and anywhere; you just gotta look for it and share what you love.

This is the list of all the counties the mobile zoos went to in North Carolina! Again, rabies is serious and action must be taken quickly!

Some people might not be aware, but it is entirely possible that without Dolly Parton we wouldn’t have had a COVID vaccine. She partly funded Moderna’s research and gave the largest individual contribution to make it all happen. Just gives you an idea of the kind of person she was.

#deltarunespoilers Long comic! I wanted to make a joke about Flowery using best friend in a romantic way because Asgore always talked about Rudy like that and then it just got sadder the more I thought about it. Asgorudy but it's also meant to be Asgowery at the end! 4/19

Hello, my little ones! I hope you all have been growing well today. I've had a busy day myself... I went to visit Rudy to see how he's doing.

I brought him another bouquet, some of my best roses. He always laughs when he sees them... I made sure to bring a glass case to keep them fresh, just like with all of you.

...I told him how worried I was about him, how I pray for him... he didn't really want to hear it, I think. He just laughs and tells me things will be okay, and I don't need to worry so much, or bring him such expensive flowers...

but I think a gift is more important than some money, especially considering...
...You know... I've known Rudy for a long time. Did I tell you that? I might have, it's been a long time that we've all known each other! I'm sure I've told you all many things over the years... it has been so many years now, hasn't it?

Art tip: don't share everything you draw. Draw things you never intend to show anyone. Your brain needs time to just exist in a state that's not about performing for strangers. This used to be the normal way to exist before social media poisoned us.

I always thought I aligned with the Kindness soul. As an adult I've been questioning that, that thinking I am is pretentious, and that I'm probably Integrity or Justice. But this feels really validating, especially the section about Integrous Kindness

The results of my test answers.

"Soul Virtues Extractor

KINDNESS
GREEN SOUL
No matter how many times I got hurt, I never let that make me cruel.

Kindness - 78%
Integrity - 51%
Justice - 38%
Determination - 35%
Bravery - 33%
Patience - 29%
Perseverance - 23%"

"What is kindness?

Kindness is not niceness. The latter is pleasant and cheap, only offered by those who are unable or unwilling to tell people what they actually need to hear. Kindness is frequently inconvenient, and it might even hurt at first, but it's aimed at providing the best possible outcome for those who wouldn't be able to help themselves.

You are probably the person people tell things to. You often find yourself feeling someone's discomfort and wanting to figure out how to fix things almost out of instinct."

"The shadow of one's soul

Kindness defends everyone except the person holding it, and will call that a virtue. The Kind who don't set healthy boundaries more often than not find themselves spent for someone else's sake, even though not everyone might deserve it.

It also hides. Kindness is a very comfortable place to put avoidance: an unhealthy Kind will often disregard their own needs, being willing to take on the pain for everyone else, as if martyrdom were something to aspire to."

"Your secondary virtue

Your second-strongest virtue is INTEGRITY, at 51%.

Thanks to INTEGRITY's strong morals and internal set of rules, the integrous Kind is always ready to help, but can direct this motion towards causes they especially believe in. These people will often fight for social causes and concern themselves with what is good for society, rather than for individuals.

On the other hand, the integrous Kind can end up taking too much pride in their Kindness, to the point where they might feel superior to the people they help, or keep count of their good deeds to bring up later at their convenience.

Your lowest virtue is perseverance (23%). Of course, no one can be perfect at everything."
