AI company made stuff up? You don't say.

That's quality art/humor right there.

I moved to a bike-friendly town recently and got an ebike and now most of my quick errands around town are bike errands. I can run out and grab a bag or two of groceries, breakfast, drop off packages at the post-office, etc.

So many little car trips all replaced with bike trips.

I love it.

Market Cap chart showing the value of Allbirds falling from 4 billion USD to 22 million USD over the course of 4 years. The falloff is dramatic, losing 3/4 of the value in the first 6 months and declining ever since.

If you've got a highly varied art style - or even if you think you don't - you might ask client what from your portfolio drew them to you.

Vance thinks Trump is infallible but the Pope needs his input.

Welp.

While we're playing that game, there's a lot of books we could pull over from the non-fiction section into fantasy as well.

This piece is great.

The little cat poking their head up from behind is lovely. The reflections, the colors, it's shiny/shimmery goodness.

I miss flipping through a dead-tree edition of a book to find a favourite passage.

It's one of my least favourite parts of audiobooks (which I love and use) and digital editions (which I use less but appreciate the value of).

Searching a digital file is faster, but less satisfying.

You flew in fashionably late tho. Pretty!

A silly frog like creature with sharp teeth on a blue background. Watercolor.

Really enjoying these. Did one that was slightly more intentional than my last one.

A bunch of people have liked my post, which was literally just a green smear of paint with eyes and a smile drawn on it.

I believe in you, random Internet stranger.

This one is excellent.

I happened to have a green smear from using a sketchbook as a place to rest some things I've been painting. It looked vaguely wrongfroggish so here ya go.
