My real name is not what it says on the government documents.
My real name is what the villagers refuse to say out loud because they're afraid it will summon me.

Yeah, I like metal music.
*pulls out a glockenspiel, a triangle, a tin whistle, and various other metallic instruments*
Dromaeosaurids are so heckin' pretty.
Dogma is such a fun word for such an unfun thing.
Wish it had more to do with dogs.

Sometimes I sit down to write in my notebook and this is what happens.
I'm running out of time this morning for art, so this bust may be the only bit of the ref sheet that's completely finished before work today. Still got the white feathers on four other illustrations to go.

Cheap ceramic cocarina holders came in the mail. Now I can show off my favorites.
An old piece of traditional media art.
What if I were fluffy and pettable though?
technically a maw shot
Clearly the only way to fight AI is to make pictures that are somehow undesirable to be copied and used to train the models.
I propose several layers of jpeg compression.

And here's my favorite sketch of Yoshi I've done, plus a more finished digital painting where I was trying a style with brighter values than I normally use.
Oh no.
Having the thoughts after having sent a message of "What if the response I get is bad and I'm awful and unwanted."
Which is a weird thing to worry about with a professional transaction.
If you’re a creature, nobody can make you wear pants.

@Bwee@meow.social What if I reciprocated?
Could you outlast me in a cute staring contest?
A quickly arranged fan-favorite track from Final Fantasy 7 on a four-string bass.
I have barely practiced this piece, so it's really rough around the edges.
Anyway, here's Wonderwall. I mean, uh, Cosmo Canyon.
I don’t think the obsession is gonna leave easily this time.
Was working on a project and I ended up drawing a mostly unrelated pic. Oops.
Oh well, it's pretty cool.

When you befriend me and pet me:
What if I gave her the generic animated movie bean mouth?
One's on the bottom, strong is he!
Two's in the middle, carrying Three!
Three's pretending not to be
Three kobolds in a trenchcoat!

“Are you a man or are you a mouse?!”
Y’know, given the choice…
Rawr!
That’s dragon for “Sometimes I need to be petted and told that everything is going to be okay, and I’m valued and worthwhile.”
Rawr can mean a lot of things.
Imagine if “goated” meant “suddenly transformed into a goat.”

My first thought was a Bob Dylan that this very nearly fits.
Oh they creatures they are a-fluffy! 🎶
It bothers me when ads and shows and modern renditions of Beethoven's 9th Symphony just have the choir singing "aah aah aah aah."
I wanna hear "Freude schoener Goetterfunken, Tochter aus Elysium."
Or however it's spelled.
What’s up, dawgs, dergs, and otherwise inhuman entities?

@anthropy@mastodon.derg.nz Heck. I hope I’m not up before 6:00, because that’s only six hours and four minutes from now.
I should learn to speak like Mojo Jojo. To repeat everything I say in different words. To reiterate, to reword, to emphasize with different verbiage!
I'm inclined to say something flew by my head when I was outside with the dog, tonight. I didn't see anything, but I heard and felt the pressure change on my right side.
Thinkin’ about solar halos and parhelia.
They’re super neat, but it’s very rare you see more than a sundog here.

Thinkin' about the least weasel.
You can't have a smaller amount of weasel and still have weasel.

One of my first thoughts today:
awaken bacon.
Look, I didn't say it was a high quality thought.
