I dig how the visualizer looks now, more reactive too. Maybe too much? lol I’m enjoying playing with this. Oh yeah, music. Atari Strikes Back! (The Relaxatron EP) youtu.be/9TQ00vms1tQ?...

TOMORROW- Friday, February 28th is BLACKOUT FRIDAY! If you believe we are in danger of losing our Democracy forever, FIGHT BACK! Let's make our voices heard in numbers too big to ignore. JOIN US if you've had it with Comrade Krasnov. 🤬 🇷🇺 #24HourEconomicBlackout

‪ Aight, here's my bid for the art vs. artist trend--I gotta say, I actually drew a lot more this year--I had a bit of trouble picking out my pieces this time around! 😅 My digital art definitely improved as a result of trying out different techniques. c: #artvsartist2024 #myart #fanart

I plan to go through this game and finish it this time around. Been waiting for this!

Still working on getting my visualizer to a place I like it, and getting back up to snuff with After Effects in general. I've had my inspiration boosted lately and I'm drawing and animating again. And also posting music I never got around to posting lol: youtu.be/qM0vIuKQPtE?...

Man. The gawddamn truth.

So here's the thing. I love ya. I appreciate all the support and jokes and corrections and knowledge and friendship and everything else I get out of our weird social media relationship. You don't even have to post, if you've followed me or read my books or laughed at some goofy thing, thank you.

our hextech dream 🦋⚙️ #jayvik

5 years of progress!

I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths

This cartoon by @mluckovich.bsky.social is getting banned on Twitter. Because of course it is.

People want stories. We are drawn to the story in art. We pause and spend time with a painting until we find the joy in each brushstroke. In that moment we see the artist and storyteller like a wizard behind the curtain. That is absent in gen ai. Go be that storyteller. Go be human and create.

Lofi track I now use on my stream intro/outro. Made this a year or two ago... More importantly, I now have a visualizer template to use for future vids (refreshing my After Effects skills!) youtu.be/ge2WX-aVMqk

Slowly but surely getting my drawing groove back Also Molly’s design here is clearly getting hit by SF6 Kimberly’s influence on me lol

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”

✨10K Special Artshare!✨ Happy Valentine’s & thank you so much for all the support these last few months, now I wanna give back to the BlueSky art community! 🫶 So any artists UNDER 10K please introduce yourselves & showcase your best artworks! I’ll retweet as much I can! 🦋 NO AI/NSFW

My grandparents made sure I was aware of this one.

They bombed the Black communities we created. We were all in one place and they took the land and built highways, railroads and airports over it, whenever we began to thrive.

Twitter deactivated for good this time.

Been a long year already. I have several goals and I feel like I know what I want to do from here on... but doing it and being sure of it, and myself, has been a challenge. Nvm work becoming extra stressful lately. I'm burned out and it's mid-February.

One of my older pieces I got back to finally. I released a version years ago, it always felt kinda unfinished. This past weekend I got around to finishing it, along with EQ fixes and getting rid of the ducking fx (aka fake side-chain) I was hella overusing lol: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PB58...

ARTISTS! Let’s do an art share! There are now nearly 31 MILLION Bluesky accounts! In a world that feels particularly chaotic, let’s take a moment to find each other and celebrate one another. Spread the post to reach the most! 💙

Excellent post

A while back I asked folks why they’re joining Bluesky and the most common response I saw was, “I just want a good place to get my news” and, yall, no. Bad. GET YOUR NEWS FROM THE NEWS PBS Newshour is FREE FOR EVERYONE. youtu.be/PMOYN8JWdUk?...

I'm doing my best~ ✌😔

"Things might be tough but it's great for artists! They'll create more!" You might not believe me but going through a lifetime's worth of stress Every Single Week for years and years- is actually not the optimal set of circumstances that inspires artists to create

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

Fuck this, fuck the news, fuck everything, I’m gonna draw sexy art and eat chicken nuggies.

Big thanks to everyone who came out to stream tonight! ...I wasn't kidding about the Sonic pose :3 Also I miss my OCs I'm gonna draw more of them ;3;

This is the GOP’s long con on full display.

Mai costume is confusing to Mika

Not everything is made for you, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t enjoyable for someone else. If you don’t like something just move on and let others enjoy it (even if in the past you might have enjoyed similar things). It’s ok to not let out every negative thought you have.

hi, cis folks! meet S.9. it's the senate sports ban for trans athletes that matches what passed the house & they'd love a bill for trump to sign day one. short call scripts for democratic & GOP senators follow. if you said you'd stand with trans folks, it's time.🧵

Man maybe it’s just me bust most of the music I make, I listen to on a regular basis. I just love making and listening to music. Same with my writing and designs. I want to write (or something creative) as my career, sure. But why tf would I do it if I didn’t enjoy the process?
