Close-up of a graphite drawing in progress. An artist’s hand uses a mechanical pencil to refine a tall, detailed tower surrounded by dense, layered architecture. The structure rises from a fragmented landscape with floating rock formations, suggesting a surreal, unstable world. Fine textures of graphite and paper are visible, highlighting the precision and depth of the work.

Mapping the edges.

Some towers don’t belong to the center…
but they still hold something.

Coachella is trying to wipe all of the footage of The Strokes protest set so I’m gonna post it here. The last images on the screen made me cry.

♥️ the "Drawing Latin America Stories" Q&A at #SABF!
Moderator Xavier Garza led a deep dive with @johnpicacio.bsky.social and Frederick Luis Aldama on how visual storytelling captures the Latinx diaspora—from the grief in The Invisible Parade to the culture in From Cocinas to Lucha Libre Ringsides.

Wolves over Nuggets in 7 is bold. If it happens, my compliments. Would be good for my Spurs. Hope it doesn’t take them 6 to beat the Blazers, but I think Portland is a tougher matchup than people realize.

If the Suns aren’t shooting lights out from three, they’re dead. No big man presence whatsoever. No way a team can sustain that kind of shooting across a 7-game series.

Hornets vs. Magic is unwatchable basketball right now. Back to deadline.

If Pistons and Cavs make it to the 2nd round, that should be a heckuva series.

Alright, I’m headed back to cover deadline now. Will be interesting tomorrow night, especially GSW vs. PHX. 🙌🏽

You got me switched around talking Wolves and Knicks at the same time. Plus I’m working on cover deadline right now. :) Yup, Sochan is Knicks. Randle, Wolves. Joker is voodoo. You almost have to let him get his, but shut down everyone else. Especially Murray, who is streaky.

I forgot that you all now have Sochan. I could see him playing some junkyard dog minutes defending Jokic, if Randle and others get in foul trouble. Offensively, whole other story though.

So true. #1 seed and yet once Tatum came back, everyone picked Boston. If I was the Pistons, I’d be OK with that. Good bulletin board material.

I figured! 😂 Is everyone on that squad relatively healthy at this point? Cade?

Knicks, huh? I think they’ve got a good shot in the East. Heavyweight fight with Boston in the Conference semis if they both pass the 1st round. I really hope the Wolves can somehow pull it out vs. Denver, but that’s gonna be a beast.

So besides @itsamia.bsky.social and @tyschalter.com — who are the other cool people in my feed who have an eye on the upcoming NBA Playoffs? And who’s your team, if so?

Tingus Pingus lives to play another day, thanks to Zombie Al Horford and Psycho Draymond. If Warriors play like that vs. PHX, they’re playing OKC this weekend. Enjoyed it with you, Mia. 🙌🏽

Absolutely. I’m here for it 24/7. Al Horford has apparently decided to rise from the dead.

The kids know. Warriors are the kings of the illegal moving screen. Let’s see if the refs will ignore enough of them that this game gets close.
