It's so heartening to see that, despite the school aggressively pushing AI onto all of us, literally every member of my cohort is adamant about not using it.

Looking for an *L.A. based* artist who (against all odds) has time for a poster gig before the end of the year.

It's for a science + art event.

We can offer $500 for the gig.

Dreadfully sorry about the timeline. Link a portfolio if you're interested, I'll delete this post when we found someone.

Cute!!

Love when a book has been copyright stricken from Internet Archive so that the only version available is a non-circulating copy from the archives of a fine art museum in a city a 3 hour drive from me.

Digital illustration of a lily of the valley against a hazy green, yellow, and pinkish orange background, but its flowers are all Mr. Saturns from the 1994 video game Earthbound / Mother 2. Each Mr. Saturn is a round whitish tan little creature with a large round nose and little round eyebrows. They each have a green stem on the top of their heads that attaches them to the plant instead of their usual black antenna, and little red leaves swirl around the stems and tie into little red bows. The lowest Mr Saturn has detached from the rest of the plant fully formed and is jumping down to a nearby leaf.

Museum of Jurassic Technology: After Wechler The marvellous Museum of Jurassic Technology in LA has been badly affected by fire. Luckily, most of the building and collection are safe, but they need support to recover. If you can donate, or buy s...

Three years ago, I found myself in LA at the Museum of Jurassic Technology, a strange and wonderful place. The museum needs support after a fire a few weeks ago.

To inspire you, here's the piece I wrote fresh from my encounter with its strange collections. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

YOU - I am a detective.

INSULINDIAN PHASMID - So am I. I was born to detect sucrose rewards and semiochemicals. What were you born to detect?

These envelopes cut from an old Thomas Guide I found were super fun to make. Now I just need a reason to write letters to people...

Why am I being bombarded with this "Christmas in July" stuff? It's not enough that we start seeing Xmas junk out for sale in October, we have to invade the height of summer as well? Will it never end?

My favorite, my vampire queen and her herd of pet bards. Her entrancement works better on some of them than others.

Using a woman as your steed into battle doesn't often end well, but we lucked out this time.

V:tDA is a game of tragic romance and chivalry. We definitely did not spend a session trying and failing to spot a messenger pigeon and harassing an NPC named Fancy Gil.

I swear this is a devastatingly sad story about the loss of identity in the face of war.

I love making shitty mspaint art of dumb things that happen in my Vampire: The Dark Ages campaign. I posted these on the bird site as the events were unfolding, but I wanted to share them here, too, so you get them all in one big lump.

Leaf blowers are among the worst inventions of humankind, outside of actual weapons.

I love it when I get a call from someone who's just like "Hello Miss MmmMm?" and I gotta fill in my last name for them. Like they just don't even try to pronounce it. Give it a shot, bro, I believe in you.

A crudely stitched doll made of white fabric and black thread. It has a silver heart-shaped charm on its chest and a keychain loop coming out of its head.

I made another awful little doll. This one's a keychain!

Pretty!

At a panel discussion at a convention. The moderator, Alegg, speaks into a microphone: ALEGG: ...All right, now we'll do some Q+A. Anyone have a question for Herr Doktor? (Sitting next to him is Wondermark's supervillain character, Herr Doktor.) An audience member, Auddy, takes the mic to address the panel. AUDDY: Not a question, more of a COMMENT... Your discussion about apples reminded me of the time I attended a CIDER-BATHING CAMP in-- DOKTOR (cutting him off): WAIT wait wait wait wait wait wait wait HOLD up DOKTOR: THIS is time during which there are to be QUESTIONS and those questions are to be ANSWERED. If YOU wish to make a statement, then I, ze other party in this exchange, must provide ze QUESTION! These are ze RULES! DOKTOR: HERE IS MY QUESTION FOR YOU! You heard Alegg announce "Now is ze time for questions" and interpreted that to MEAN "This is my chance to waste everyone's time by sharing my irrelevant opinion"! WHAT IS WRONG with you that you MADE that decision and then ACTED on it? AUDDY: Now, I don't think you're being fair to the spirit of-- DOKTOR: ANSWER ZE QUESTION

has there ever been a worse harbinger of doom than the phrase "not a question, more of a comment..."
