Yooooo look! Listen!

Y’all don’t know how cool this is gonna be!!

Fun fact: if you're buying from a creator on etsy, you can reduce their etsy selling fees from 6.5% to 2.5% by ordering via 'shopname.etsy.com' instead of 'etsy.com/shopname' or searching from the main site. It costs you the same but the creator makes more

Huh. Never thought to ask if my parents had a TV when they were living in Cambodia. Dad did, mom didn’t.

Your "dumb little projects" are so important during this harrowing time. Don't forget that. Your creativity has value, for yourself and for the world.

Asking for a friend! If one were visiting Portland, OR because they’re shopping for a new life, what neighborhoods should they check out? Walkable to things you’d need for the everyday: grocery, bank, cafe/restaurants, parks!

The way J. Michael Tatum says “I love you too” in this scene has been haunting me for DAYS. So tender and bittersweet. One of those acting moments that just kamehameha’s right through your heart.

I nearly stepped into the path of a moving pick up truck because I was making eye contact with a lively white husky hanging out of a parked car’s window, and he was beckoning to me. My own sweet panting siren, calling to me across the asphalt, inviting me to rest my weary soul and sleep…

Last RP: Man, I miss working in stop motion. Sometimes when I see folks do CG “stop motion,” I feel like they’re missing a fundamental reason to make something in stop motion: the undeniably human touch. I love the entire aesthetic of stop motion.

There’s a great interview with Nick Park about Wallace And Gromit in last month’s Empire, and this bit in particular stood out. It sums up what artists have been trying to say about AI. The mistakes and the learning aren’t things to be bypassed, but a vital part of the process 🤟

HOLY BUTTS I GOT OFF THE WAITLIST FOR ANIME EXPO ARTIST ALLEY Oh god I’m so scared what do you want from me what is an anime my tastes are like, almost 10 years behind can I just make you all some sweet romance anime stuff that’s all I watch what are a Dan da Dan

Re: last repost The ice breaker question in my welcome meeting was “what is your guilty pleasure movie?” and they perplexed when I said I didn’t have an answer because I don’t see why I should feel shame or guilt for what I like to watch.

Once saw a theory floated that the live-action remakes continue to be profitable because a significantly-large-enough percentage of Disney's audience like their cartoons, but feel foolish for liking them. Been thinking about that for weeks.

The most terrible thing about my very fancy new-to-me ergonomic chair is that the wheels are clean and can actually roll now and are constantly reminding me that my floors are sloped as I fight to stay at my desk.

For Zelda’s 39th anniversary, my Stardew farmer is a Link that ran away from his life at Joja’s corporate headquarters in Hyrule to avoid having to be the hero of the company, and is now in love with Sebastian, with Elliott pining from afar.

Not where I want to be yet, but I'm still growin'! Looking forward to when I can have one of those monster displays that look like a whole traveling storefront!

I started playing Stardew Valley as a chill way to unwind from the past month but here I am at the shelter because a bunch of people evacuated from a highly unprecedented weather phenomena. How do I make out with my crush tho

This isn’t the most eloquent way to express it, but thank fuck for the arts Thank fuck for books Thank fuck for drawing and painting Thank fuck for movies Thank fuck for video games Thank fuck for all the creatives out there who will help us cope the next 4 years whether by escapism or a rally cry
