A work in progress painting of a tree with polypore mushrooms serving as the stoop where three mushroom characters mill about. A king oyster in a velvet blue vest stands near the door while a chanterelle sits kicking its feet at the edge and a bare bummed botlet looks off into the distance.

"If you're not paying for a service, you're the product" used to be a reasonable mental model but now even the people who pay money to these platforms don't get treated like customers. There are no customers any more, it's just Money Guys jerking each other off, forever.

Makes my blood boil that they use bullshit lines to avoid accountability. "Fair" Trial is showing the proof of the moment. If cops are too fucking scared to do their jobs without murder then they don't fucking deserve to serve. PERIOD.

Apparently there’s grocery inflation discourse again, but as I’ve been buying groceries for other families during this crisis, often under duress, it’s brought me out of my own optimized grocery spending habits, which rely heavily on Costco. And damn, there is a huge price to pay for being poor.

What’s so weird about men in power is how when they face scandal and should step down the world acts like no one else can do their jobs. Bottstein, Wasserman, these aren’t irreplaceable men! Stop with this delusion.

"He's on the list but dont worry we didnt fire him, he left on his own and is living his best life" vibes....

No one wants him at another job we all want him and everyone on the list in jail (at minimum).

Its like watching churches shuffle staff to avoid accountability

Question Ive been asking myself lately: am I polyamorous or just incapable of community building with people who dont want to fuck me?

Which is a whole kettle of bears

I love poly, I experience so much compersion... but I DO also think Im really bad at community building...

"We should learn to speak in a language that rich people who don't dream can't comprehend"

This is one of the absolute best reasons I've heard to encourage folks to learn their native languages and learn to dream beyond colonial bounds.

I see a number of plants with hebrew names labelled as "endangered" ... we all know who made them endangered. If they would stop scorched earth policy maybe there would be more of an ecosystem left.

The loss of land, habitat, and bio-diversity is fucking heartbreaking. As if it wasn't bad enough.

Wild edible plants of Israel and Palestine - Wikipedia

Today I went to look up native plants in Palestine for a painting I'd like to do.... Wikipedia fucking disgusts me.

There were multiple attempts to remove the settler colonial state of isntreal from the listing yet they still allow citing biblical bullshit as real valid citation for changes.

Week one: Decay
Read the alt text for my description and vibe details.

Im going to just post it while I still enjoy it.

I do like how the mycillium turned out tho.

Zero AI used. Just my lame human meathooks, some wood sticks with little hairs on the end, and some colourful goo.

Jerry Lawson, the inventor of the video game cartridge.

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm.

The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him.

Happy Black History Month.

The answer imo: I know it doesnt feel okay, but we will get through this together, and im here for you for as long as it keeps not feeling okay. You dont have to carry it alone.

It doesnt fix it, some things cant be; But at least there is comfort, community, and knowing your feelings are safe.

Doodles using water colour pencil and no water.
Many wavy lines and spirals. There is a field of grass and blue demon stuffy with a beak and horns near a hippo with a pompadour blowing smoke.
There are many flowers.
