well now I feel obligated to include like hardcore vore or sadomasochism or something in my next project, on principle, because that’s just goofy

It’s a vampire. Whose character model has like permanent blood stains up to the elbows. And a minor god of “fuck you”. If we’re not allowed to make THOSE two do mean, fucked-up stuff, who CAN we?

Too soon to tell what the root situation down there is like, but on the surface the beets are looking pretty dang good

Alternate of my art for Blight's 2024 single, Behexen. The final art went a different way with the logo treatment and deep red color palette, and I love how it all came out, but I'm still quite fond of this version.

A sitting and a standing ceramic female figure, they are both turquoise and have half their heads anatomised.  The standing figure has their abdomen opened and has their hand outstretched holding an apple

Fell a bit in love with Serena Korda’s Wild Apples in the Wellcome Collection today. It uses the bodies of perimenopausal, menopausal and post-menopausal women to respond to the wax Anatomical Venuses I’ve talked about here in the past.

bsky employee with a fancy title decided to mass block like 300k users of the platform he’s supposed to be developing because you get better market research results if you proactively exclude everyone who thinks you personally are a ding-dong

Knowing how the sausage is made at tech companies just makes this stuff even more hilarious when I get to watch it from the outside

Also, and I mention this for no particular reason, but “Technical Advisor” is the job title you give to someone you pay a lot of money to but who produces nothing. They do no work & one wonders if they even CAN but they keep getting paid for political reasons.

Can you even imagine the experience you’d have on here if you blocked 300k+ users on an “Anti-AI Users” list? Your feed would become devastated. Desolate. No artists, no writers, basically no creatives of any type.

Did you talk with any of them about it and hear them explain how they resolve the, uh, cognitive dissonance of using these tools?

The Chariot of Octopolis. A starry night octopus sits within the shape of a giant 'paper nautilus', an egg casing of an argonaut octopus. She holds a golden sponge, wears a skirt of chiton armor and a crab helm. The nautilus chariot is pulled forward by two yellowfin tuna lashed to a yoke. An iridescent banner streams behind the chariot.  In the background rise archways and towers of a coral city.

I’m inclined to cite chittlins but I’ve also been informed that my family‘s cornbread stuffing recipe, which involves tipping a few cans of oysters into the casserole dish along with the usual corn meal & herbs, is considered an abomination by outsiders

I’ve probably photographed this exact same series of radish prep images every year since I started the vegetable garden.
