Makes me think of this Dustin Hoffman interview on the events leading up to making Tootsie...

The contrast between spending nearly 3 hours doing my taxes and the five MINUTES it takes for the federal government’s system to approve them on a Sunday afternoon is asinine. YOU KNEW THE NUMBER THE WHOLE TIME, JUST SEND ME THE GODDAMNED REFUND
*sigh*
If your Kickstarter video/image is AI, I won't back it.
If your book has an AI cover, I won't read it.
If you're a public supporter of AI use for creative work, I will unfollow you.
I cannot stress enough how offensive I find AI use in the arts. It is outright theft, it is lazy, it is gross.
✨ Digital art, gentle magic, soft vengeance.
Pastel cloaks, strong coffee, and a side of quiet rebellion.

Comms closed—but if you linger, expect a hex or a hug. Maybe both.
As a millennial, there is no greater insult than being demoted from a ❤️ to a 👍
trans buds I know it's been rough but you're gonna make it to better times I know it
Here is today's try at making a sale on Etsy. Yesterday's didn't work. Or the day before that. Or the day before that, or the day before that. Most of the things that I try to do fail. It's a legacy. People liked the yarn bowls so I made more. Brambledragon.etsy.com #ceramics #pottery #art
Thank you! It is a lot but I know it’s only temporary, and completely worth it!!
The only challenge about going back to school as a full-time working adult is that everyone assumes I’m ONLY in school.
No, Barbara, I can’t attend your midday Wednesday major-specific networking event because I’m busy already WORKING in my field 😮💨
Remind anyone who tries to use the phrase "separate the art from the artist" that it was originally coined for academic/critical practice in order to analyze the work. Not to cling onto stuff that actively harms people just because you like it a lot.
A black and white sketch of my character Vane in my upcoming WIP, a man looking to the left with glowing blue eyes and weeping darkness
the same character with a rough sketch of bones showing through his flesh (not anatomically accurate)
Chokehold. #monsterromance #MMFromance
See, I needed this because now I’m doing pRoDuCTiVe tHiNgs with my tImE (disrespectfully)

I appreciate the sympathy! I’ve got a new (refurbished) one coming Monday or Tuesday but it was just such a bummer lol
This next one is going to have a military grade case I’m not taking any risks
My phone finally committed suicide today by leaping out of my pocket and onto concrete. It’s been trying for weeks now and has only just succeeded when my guard was down 😩
A digital drawing of a dark elf and a redheaded woman. The dark elf has claws he draws across her skin, leaving lines, and she’s ruddy with her eyes closed, looking withdrawn as he leans into her. Outside the frame, she’s sitting on his lap.
The same image, with them sitting on a bed beneath a canopy. She’s arched towards him and getting onto his lap as he reclines, leaning his forehead against her temple, staring intently at her
#monsteromance a little tlc after everything she’s been through. His nickname for her is ‘moonfire’ but she only gets red under special circumstances
Twin scimitars? Drizzt
I’m in editing mode with my WIP and I’m pleased to discover I have a more complete story than I thought 🥲
teewatterss on Threads: “losing an hour on international women's day feeling very 75 cents on the dollar”
10/10 take. no notes
I dunno, we had plenty of absurdist things we thought were funny. Like ‘the game’ (by the way, you just lost). It’s okay to let them have the things that will define their generation.
It was 5318008 back in my day 👵🏻
Back in the day, I was told to “prove it” by sending them pictures of myself (and other things) or I was lying. Women in “men’s” spaces are only good for one thing to them.
Oof that’s a great point. I’ll have to rewatch it because I think I mostly struggled with how badly he treated Millie when she was finally in the spotlight, so it was hard for me to watch his ‘shadow self’ run amok of the situation and lose sight of the goal when he’s always so committed
Could history just ease on the brakes a bit? This millennial needs a nap 😮💨
With the exception of the summer camp episode, I resonate so much with him, being bi and ADHD. I felt so represented when he showed up on screen and it’s a rare feeling. It’s sad so many people whittle him down to ‘annoying’, but I can empathize with that too
A digital drawing of a redheaded woman and a dark elf with red eyes. They’re turned away from the viewer, with the woman looking pensive and the dark elf shooting an accusatory glance over his shoulder at the viewer. They are in a blue hall lit by magical sconces.

I repainted two photos for the background. Credit will be in the alt text #monsterromance #sizedifference
Maybe I missed something but they lost 10k and he made 40k, so if he’d just bought them, he’d be up 400%* and wouldn’t be facing charges (*it is proven I don’t know maths). Unless they’re talking about the wholesale price?
