my band put together new merch

The amount that being any kind of artist has turned into being a full time sales person of your own personality, begging people to pay you anything at all for the work they love, sucks so bad

“he worked in tech, I’m sure he could afford healthcare” oh my sweet summer child

there's also a fair number of people who think the majority of people in tech make 100k per annum lmao. I've got a tech degree, multiple certs, 5 yrs experience, and make like $32k. I'm interviewing for a network admin job that pays $55k

Luigi Mangione’s fellow prisoners yelled “Luigi’s conditions suck” and “Free Luigi” from their cells in Pennsylvania during an interview: www.newsnationnow.com/banfield/lui...

friend got me a phone handset with an XLR jack for Christmas

update: it's going okay. only smoked once since this post. sleeping is fucking harrrrd but I'm a lot more present. finished two fantasy novels in a week. have this frightening sense of vulnerability now that I can feel things more fully, and I'm more aware of others (and that they're aware of me)

post 4 of your favorite metalcore/hardcore/heavy albums, I'll go first Polaris - The Mortal Coil Knocked Loose - Laugh Tracks Invent, Animate - Heavener Sleep Token - Sundowning

I've seen so many saying they're quitting their art form bc of AI, but others using AI will never make me quit doing what I do. even if it isn't profitable, even if I never get recognition for it. I make the art I make bc I love to make art. Bc I *need* to make art. it's really as simple as that

Quote post with your Elder Scrolls art

This year I got back into reading fiction, and it's all bc of the late, great Ursula K. Le Guin. I started in January with The Dispossessed, finished The Left Hand of Darkness last month, and I'm currently almost finished with A Wizard of Earthsea, which is prob my favorite fantasy novel ever now

I stopped smoking shweed entirely on Thursday after spending the last few years smoking almost every day, and I gotta say, despite the shitass physical symptoms that come with it, I feel great. I actually want to play games again. I'm super clearheaded. My ADHD meds feel like they work better

wow sick song bro. now play it to a click

Spine of Eternity: Everybody Wants to be a Star is a Powered by the Apocalypse Tabletop RPG. In a modern fantasy setting where fame is power you play as an adventurer traveling the land to earn the strength to reach the Stars. Out now! tinyurl.com/spineofetern...

yeah when I read The Dispossessed at the start of this year, when I tell you it had me GRIPPED. I took fucking NOTES while I read y'all. it was all I could think about or do for a straight week, and then I spent another week writing about it.

SHIT

I literally only slept an hour last night and yet I feel perfectly normal today. Good, even. Take that Big Sleep

goodnight. have a dumb bee #art #sketch #bees

a digital piece I made a couple years back, inspired by "Depths III" by Silent Planet #art #metalcore

introduce yourself as an anime character

today in IT school I learned about how before CD's they used to insert floppy dicks into their computers to expand their RAM. technology has come so far

And I suppose this means I should post my most recent piece of digital #art -- This one started out as a traditional piece (it's 100% a #sketchy pen & ink recreation of The Fallen Angel if it isn't obvious lmao) but I put it into a design to use as merch for my band!

HUGE throwback #art, this is quite possibly one of the first pieces I ever did digitally, when I first got my drawing tablet all the way back in 2019. I think we were watching The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, so I wanted to draw an Aughra piece

A Vivec painting I did awhile back #art #morrowind #elderscrolls

'For I have crushed a world with my left hand,' he will say, 'but in my right hand is how it could have won against me. Love is under my will only.' #art #morrowind

Boob drawing struggle

A single, calm, quiet voice in my head this morning said "I don't feel mentally well, I'm gonna stay home" so that's what I did. Seasonal depression is kicking my ass this year, combined with burnout, not having any shows to play for the next few months, waiting to hear on job interviews, etc

Hey… #art #darkart

remember, you can't control the people who come here and what they do. sort of like real life

Regret to say that this is probably an inevitability of crowd dynamics kinda thing

kitties at the mechanic

a silt strider i drew in 2019 #art #morrowind
