The thing I like to remind / ask myself, “am I trying to *prove* my abilities or *improve* my abilities?” If it’s the former, I’m focusing on the wrong things.

Currently contemplating: how this might apply to life in general It's true, I genuinely can't do ANYthing, but there's a lot I think of as beyond me that I actually could do as well as many ppl could. I can get through it. I can handle it and move past it. Some things, I can even learn to do well.
The biggest turning point in you life as an artist is when you shift gears from thinking “I can draw these things but not those things” to thinking “I can draw anything! Quality not guaranteed, but I can draw it”

Hey all, realized I never announced that I am on CARA! I'll be using it mainly as an art portfolio/sharing spot, so less conversational on there, but im less and less conversational on social media outside of one-on-one convos these days.

I will bang this drum forever: in THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE FREE: THE GERMANS, 1933-45 Milton Mayer interviewed 10 ordinary Germans after WW2 to learn how fascism took hold. There was never a moment when everyone woke up:
if you’re waiting for everyone around you to wake up, you’ll wait forever. this is how the people grinding our bones to make their bread WANT you to be. paralyzed, alienated & purposeless

Story time: Attempt #2. So, Lacey and I were in Vegas celebrating our anniversary, and this sad puddle is what was left of her iced coffee. 1/
I deleted the post about the crazy lady in Vegas because I worded it very badly. Maybe if I have some time later I’ll try to tell it again, but clearly 😂

I tried asking this on Threads & didn’t really get any replies. Maybe here? 👉Just wondering about the calls for illustration - do you mostly want styles that look realistic, highly rendered and polished (e.g like Magic the Gathering art)? #books #booksky #kidlit

“emissions pledges” ought to be “emissions regulations.” It’s a sad prospect that the lack of profitability in genAI is probably more likely to eventually reduce these numbers than regulations ever will.
Google’s emissions are up 48% in 5 years. Microsoft’s are up 30% since 2020. Those soaring figures are being driven by mass investments in data centers to power AI tools. Generative AI is a climate disaster and data center expansion must be stopped.
