I’ve been reading more, collecting new friends because my family shrunk, buying books I’m pretty sure will be illegal to publish soon, and volunteering to transcribe at-risk archives collections so there is a digital copy. Does anyone have anything to add to the list of stuff to do to feel better?

The most challenging part of cooking is calculating the number of people I am.

We should be able to charge our bodies with usb-c cables by now.

I want to remind everyone that your local library is both physical AND digital. You hate streaming everything because the price is ridiculous? Library. You hate ads because they're every 3 mins or less? Library. You want to reduce your digital footprint? Library. You want sourced info? Library.

Yup…

The snow was a pretty surprise this morning

Reminder- using reference for art is NOT cheating. Depending on what type of artist you are, you should absolutely be using it. All highly skilled pro artists I know use it. Art isn't a party trick, we don't have to be in the business of impressing ppl with the process. Don't hold yourself back.

I'M ALIVE!!! Fuck you, Schrödinger!

First snow of the year ❄️

I think most of my professional development has been by accident or against my will.

I’m at the #ILFAnnualConference2024 and boy do librarians love tote bags 📚 Tote bags & intellectual freedom 👍🏻 Censorship 👎🏻

Time to talk and learn about library stuff!

Consider the power of drawing daily for 30 minutes: - 30 minutes of drawing a day = 15 hours a month - 15 hours of drawing a month = 1 full illustration - 1 full illustration monthly = 12 illustrations a year Your portfolio is going to start filling up pretty quickly.
