My cat is staging a full blown mutiny. No toys will settle her, no treats will satiate her. She is shredding my walls and carpet in protest because I…
*checks notes*
Didn’t let her onto my balcony to murder the giant squirrel eating nuts….
She is claiming abuse.

I LOVE THE WAY YOU DRAW SHANE.
It really inspired my own design of him. (Ive been stalking your tumblr for a while)
A tortie calico cat is lying across my arm with her paw gripping my fingers. My fingers are on a keyboard.
I guess I need to stop working now?
tank enjoyer @paradoomer gotta believe another world is possible. aint no fucking way billions of years of evolution culminating in this historical moment will end with us languishing on this spinning rock in space only to oppress ourselves forever. it would be an incredible waste. i refuse to believe it
moon mission got me feeling some such way
Artemis II Return NASA's Orion spacecraft carrying Artemis II Commander Reid Wiseman, Pilot Victor Glover, and Mission Specialist Christina Koch from NASA, along with Mission Specialist Jeremy Hansen from the CSA (Canadian Space Agency), splashes down in the Pacific Ocean near San Diego, California, at 5:07 p.m. PDT, (8:07 p.m. EDT) on Friday, April 10, 2026. The Artemis II test flight launched on Wednesday, April 1, from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida to begin its 10-day journey around the Moon for scientific discovery, economic benefits, and to build on our foundation for the first crewed missions to Mars. NASA’s Landing and Recovery team and the U.S. military are coordinating efforts to extract the Artemis II crew from the Orion spacecraft. Credit: NASA/Josh Valcarcel
What a great photo just added on the NASA Johnson Flickr page www.flickr.com/photos/nasa2...
Digital Circus could open a lot of doors for other shows, but it doesn’t mean that everyone is seeing the level of success they need to survive. Not in the way studio supported shows could support their artists.
I hope things continue to change.
This is great news. In glad this is the case.
But how well other indie animation projects are faring? Are they also able to make a profit? Can they keep their artists employed beyond the production of one episode?
What about Far-Fetched, Dungeon Flippers, and I Don’t Want to Be a Magical Girl?
The late great Bob McKnight's legacy and animation history is in danger of being seized and destroyed. Help donate. gofund.me/ae656c68a
i see adobe is back on their bullshit again and i am once again imploring well-meaning nerds to not suggest professional digital artists "just" switch to GIMP. you are not helping when you say this. comments off because i'm right, sorry 😔
Lute and Adam from Hazbin Hotel as birds. The top right has lute perched on Adam who’s perched on a branched on a branch with his wings spread. The middle bottom has Adam looming over Lute while she glowers up at him. The top left has Lute posing on top of Adam with her wings spread. Adam is looking up at her from a roosting position. The bottom left has Adam and Lute chest to chest and beak to beak looking at each other lovingly
Hazbin Hotel fan-birds!
Adam is serving Bird-of-Paradise. Lute is DEFINITELY an Australian magpie.

I can't believe the "New Yorker" REJECTED this cartoon!
I can’t believe I didn’t think to use my inhale ability.

I got banned from twitter in 2023 for this drawing. They called it "violent speech". It had over 40K likes and too many comments for me to read before my ban, but I still see it floating around here and there. Save a copy, and use it freely. No attribution needed. Love u

Shane from Stardew Valley is pulling a pare of very tight jeans up his legs while talking to the farmer. The farmer is standing right behind him biting her lip and both hands on his shoulder. Two chickens observe them. One from the floor, a blue chicken. The other from the bed, a cream-colored one.
Oh Stardew. You’ve invaded my brain. Shane has one pare of tight pants. He’ll break them out on special occasions.

I’m sorry you’re being harassed for that. Bojack is one of the best pieces of adult animation to come out on the last decade. It inspired me to.
What you said: “Bojack’s insight into the human condition an human suffering through a comedic lens really inspired me.”
What they heard: “I’m trying to make my show exactly like Bojack Horseman. Even though the premise and the characters have little in common outside of general human struggles.”
I still miss this little guy every day. I miss cooking breakfast with one arm because he insists on being held. I miss watching him sun himself on the patio. I miss his tiny paw resting on my arm while I work.
He was a very good boy.
The internet likes to lie to us with these giant global issues. Yes things are bad, but you can make a difference! You can affect more change by volunteering in your local community.
Meet and support your neighbors. You don’t have to be best friends but you should have a relationship with them.
On a completely unrelated note- I got really into baroque music performed on a Lute. For reference!
I’ve now started enjoying it regularly- JOIN ME!

This was actually cited as a great way to subvert Nazis back in WW2 by multiple field guides distributed by the US military.
EXACTLY!
(It’s also a way for the man to save money by not staffing the production properly. All while tricking artists into being okay with this by making them feel important)
TV animation seems to be the most guilty of this, but it’s happening across the industry.
bootstraps-capitalist ideology sells itself back to us.
The reality is each department adds to the collective vision. Each person’s input is important. Animation is, at its core, a collective art-form.
Let the editors and revisionists cook! Their input will help your art shine.
Everyone would love to have their creative input valued a lot. Everyone wants to feel like a bit of a star sometimes.
But editors and revisionists are valuable positions the way animation, fx, an comp are. The straight-to-animatic mentality feels like another way that the hyper-individualist…
… both back to the director, and to the other artists further down the pipeline.
The point of boards, is to help create a cohesive visual plan for the rest of the production. And while that does give you a lot of creative input. It’s not YOUR VISION. It’s a collective.
It’s fueled by this weird public perception that creative artists working on any production have a significant amount of creative power. The reality is that it’s more complicated than that.
It’s not about your vision. It’s about your ability to correctly communicate a vision…🧵
Lute and Adam from Hazbin Hotel are under a tree. Adam is laying down, with his upper back against the tree. Lute is sitting on top of him. Adam is playing a lute (the instrument) and smiling up at Lute. There’s a deep sunset behind them.
Headcanon: Adam is highly proficient with all stringed instruments. An idiot-savant of sorts.
“Obviously the guitar is king, but you wouldn’t believe how much chicks would cream over this lame-shit.”
*plays Bach flawlessly*
