Like a lot of other fairly neutral things, Portfolio Day becomes something I beat myself up with.

Seriously tempted to go to the taqueria for lunch. Currently angry and want to go elsewhere and draw for a bit.

Transphobes fuck off and die.

Re last boost Ash is good people and did one hell of a job, give it a watch?

went straight from "hey, Who Framed Roger Rabbit is free on YouTube" to The Cheap Detective soundtrack, started Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid but went into the Double Indemnity soundtrack instead, then The Big Sleep and Bladerunner.

#drawings from yesterday and today. A party of adventurers runs afoul of undead dwarves. The return of the small D&D characters with bonus friend’s rogue PC. A pack of Black Furies attacks beneath Luna (includes my WtA character in Crinos). Dwarf cleric and human wizard face a… um… refractive cat, in its den.

Ah seen them down by the crick, AN AH SEEN WHAT THEY BROUGHT WITH THEM. Heh heh, ever hear tell of a SHOGGOTH? #hooey #MightyFineNoodlin

I'm old, okay? If I'd had kids, they'd be what, in their teens now, maybe 20 somethings. And I feel like, when you're in your teens and 20s, you're GOING to do dumbshit stuff, because you're figuring out more about life, and that's not great, but it's sort of a thing that happens, you know?

And some of the dumbshit stuff you could do is gonna be about crusading zeal. I've been there. Fine.

BUT.

You start talking about "degenerates" and about killing and making Nazi ass references, you are NO LONGER A KID IN MY BOOKS. Gloves are fucking off, you're a fucking Nazi. And like any other fucking Nazi you need to be kicked out of communities and silenced, preferably in a polite, legal and nonviolent fashion.

sorry my dude, I just can't in good conscience follow someone making that much use of Midjourney. Even if it's just for fun, not for sale.

I’m outside Barnes and Noble drawing (this dude coughing inside made me paranoid but I was really in a groove), and two high schoolers come up; one has an assignment, ask folks to read his story, critique it, his friend grabs a photo as proof. I don’t think he expected technical suggestions about breaking out dialogue and making it stand out. I try to say encouraging stuff because, y’know, that’s the age MY kids might be. I think I was so relieved this wasn’t a churchy thing that sure, I’d help.

Listening to “Two coffins” on repeat, clearly a sign of good mental hygiene

Aww man listening to Smashing Pumpkins makes me miss the 90s AND the Bay Area! I mean it is the Pumpkins though. It’s supposed to make me feel sad.

I need the money and therefore can’t take the day off for “gender feels,” “lost a day of weekend to family” or “drawing feels good.”

Just add or replace the initial consonant with a J to create a denim version of your fursona!

*Cate Blanchett voice*
The world has changed. I feel it in the water. I feel it in the earth. Much that once was, isn't. And much that is, wasn't. It began with the forging of the great rings. Three were given to the elves, gracile twinks. Seven to the dwarves, great bears and leathermen. And nine to mortal men, who above all desire dominance and submission. But they were all of them deceived.

years and years ago, I was in a relationship. The relationship came with two cats. Pepper adored chicken, enough that you couldn't cook it without her showing up to yell at you to give you some. You couldn't even SAY "chicken" or she'd come running and yell at you; we started saying "poultry" or "bird."

She was kinda picky about food she thought was weird.

Me and the ex bought a cornish game hen to give her. Our opinions were evenly split whether faced with apparently an entire chicken all her own, Pepper would be utterly blissed out, or whether she'd turn her nose up and yell at us about giving her whatever it was that smelled like chicken.

But then life happened, and we never got around to cooking her cornish game hen as an experiment before she lost her eyesight thanks to age.

time is my friend
till it AIN'T and runs out
and that is all that I have till I'm gone
try to build a home, bones of birds
singing in the cold and fall to earth
hey
sometimes
she won't cry
when the smallest one is drowned
too weak to survive, too weak to survive.
Probably. Maybe.

I think the added paintings and dialogue at the beginning could have been rolled into Princess Irulan's opening monologue. Romance is definitely the weak point of this movie, where Duke Leto's love for Lady Jessica shows through mostly in pillow talk where she insists they're destined to get it on and get knocked up this particular evening, and Paul's love for Chani is mostly another predestined thing.
