Sketch pile commission for @snowontheradio of a whole bunch of glutton knights! The painted one is their character Augustine, and the dragon is Augustine’s totally-not-girlfrienemy Linnae. I took some artistic license with their armor, because I’ll take any excuse to draw some of that late medieval articulation. Oh baby, look at those joints.
The rest of the knights are just general fun with the concept!
So I've talked about little libraries and pantries to death but this Lil guy popped up in my area recently and it's blown my mind
So I went to the website on the door and it's basically the same thing as free little library where you can pay for a box from them to get it installed OR Build one yourself
ok so, I approached my local library with a proposal to donate a mural as a way to A: build portfolio/gain practical experience and B: give back to a beloved public institution. The director was very enthusiastic about it and i've been working on it since the beginning of March. Come with me as I endeavor to paint what is in all honesty an excessive amount of birds
I wanted the birds to look like they were actually in the space so first thing after doing the draft was to do a lighting study
after that I covered the walls in letters in lieu of a projector/vr headset bc i have neither of those :) Then i take a picture of the section of wall and superimpose the lineart over top of it so I can pencil in the lines
et voila
and that was a whole week on it's own so next comes the paintin' >:)
my chains are broken i am FREE. although i did have a great deal of fun with this, the barring on the wings itself took me like four days and i am READY to move on
this was a week and a half of continuous work so please excuse me for getting a little emotional in the bg 🙏
BIRD NUMBER 10!!! The Male Mallard Duck, Anas platyrhynchos
the male and female ones are gonna be posted separately bc they're taking a lot longer lol but yea! super happy i was able to capture the iridescent green of the head, i found metallic green and blue paint at a craft store that really made his head POP. it looks better in person i promise
ALSO!! As this is the 10th one, BIG announcement. The end is in sight!!!!! I plan to finish within the next 3 weeks and there will be a small dedication ceremony/ unveiling happening at the library to commemorate its completion on the 16th of May. If you live in the Western New York region and want to check it out for yourself shoot me a dm!
Also thank you everyone for your kind words and support throughout this whole process, it's been a genuine treat thinking there are potentially thousands of you out there cheering me on while I paint this 🥹
we're movin right along with bird numero 11!! The lady Mallard!! Anas platyrhyncos
the 16th is looming in the distance so i'm trying to get thru these as quickly as i can so i can have as much time for the GBH as possible. i still need to do the names next to all of them so i've got about a week and a half to finish everything which is GREAT because i have adhd and nothing gets my ass in gear like a fuckin deadline, let me tell you
power couple that they are, here's bird number 12 and 13,
the Northern Cardinals, Cardinalis cardinalis
and NOW that they are complete, ITS GO TIME, in the next five days (library's closed for mother's day 😭😭) i need to have the GBH fully rendered, the names of the birds vectored, weeded, masked, applied to the wall, and then painted, plus additional cattails throughout. I may be able to get away with just getting the GBH done in time for the unveiling and then just have the names and cattails added later, but i'm gonna really try to get it all done in time. BUT, i have a plan. Part of why i take so long on these is because i really am just figuring it out as I do it lmao. there have been many a time where i am sitting on top of the ladder googling "how to paint birds" but I think if i take the time tomorro to do all that figuring out how to approach it beforehand, this will go a lot faster. I may also recruit some of my artist friends to help with the placing of the names... hrmm we'll see.
Anyways, shout out to the librarian who tracked down exactly the thing i needed so i could figure out where to place the highlights in my birds eyes, ur the real mvp
thank you to everyone who reached out or got excited about this project, it genuinely gave me the fuel i needed to keep going. In total, the 480+ total hrs it took me to cover this wall pales in comparison to how long its expected to spend on there, hopefully imparting a sense of beauty and love for the natural world to the next generation and here's hoping i'm only getting started with these.

in the beginning, the trump assassination attempts were spaced by twenty four weeks. then twelve, then six, then every two weeks. the last one, at the white house, was a week. in four days we could be seeing a trump assassination attempt every eight hours until they are coming every four minutes. we should witness a double event within seven days,
Two new large-scale data centres are set to break ground in Vancouver this year.
May 13, 2026
Two new large-scale data centres are set to break ground in Vancouver this year.
There are 16 data centres already dotted around Vancouver, with a majority located in the downtown core and Mount Pleasant. They have various purposes, with some serving as colocation centers—where retail customers can rent equipment and bandwidth—and others purpose-built for AI.
The two new data centres coming to Vancouver, a joint project between telecommunications giant Telus and the federal government, are meant to improve and increase the scale of Canada’s sovereign AI infrastructure, Telus said Monday. The project was proposed under the federal government’s AI initiatives introduced in 2025 that support the development of these large-scale data centres.
These centres have been quietly popping up across Vancouver for a number of years, occupying hundreds of thousands of square feet in unassuming buildings. These tech towers have been storing cloud data and hosting website domains for over a decade in the city. Their existence is not necessarily benign, though.
...Many data centres use evaporative cooling methods to keep their computers at functioning temperatures. These cooling methods have become a primary critique of the massive centres, as they require the use of freshwater. According to the Environmental and Energy Study Institute, large data centres can use up to 19 million litres of water every day, and since nearly 80 per cent of that water evaporates, it can’t be reused.
Telus said these new centres will use a different method for cooling called a closed-loop cooling system that will reduce their water usage by up to 80 per cent.
Still, the amount of water needed for these AI data centres is a big concern among community members, especially given the state of B.C.’s water resources. On May 1, Vancouver activated Stage 2 water restrictions to help conserve drinking water in anticipation of a hot, dry summer with low snowpack.
“Metro Vancouver is running out of water. I’ve heard that they’re going to do their best, they’re going to try and use recycled water and it’s going to be a closed loop. But I still have concerns about how much water these are going to use,” Coun. Sean Orr said.
...In recent years, B.C. has seen an increase in extreme heat events throughout the summer months, with more on the horizon. The heat dome that came to the province in 2021 saw over 600 heat-related deaths, and even more adverse health effects, with temperatures in the Lower Mainland breaking previous temperature records by 5 degrees or more.
“Where does this fit into building a city that is actually working to protect disabled life, and life in general,” Gabrielle Peters, disabled writer and policy analyst said. A majority of the people who died during the 2021 heat dome also had pre-existing chronic conditions and limited mobility.
The federal government says that extreme heat is the leading cause of illness and death from weather-related hazards in Canada. Peters argued the city remains ill-prepared for serious heat events, and expressed concern about the impact the data centres could have on temperatures.
hey, here's a link to look up your local MP's email to let them know that 1. we want to see the environmental assessment 2. no more data centres until regulatory law catches up.

Serve Warm. wouldnt wanna get too wild with it. truly this is the spirit of cornflakes
people have this tendency to believe that fandom discourse exists because people in fandoms are Stupid Nerdy Losers, but in fact fandom discourse exists because anytime you get a group of more than 100 people together, they will start creating interpersonal bullshit. fandom is not special in this regard
There is sports discourse. There is yarn discourse. There is food discourse. There is academic discourse (dear sweet god is there academic discourse). If there are people out there collecting brass buttons specifically from 1921, they are going to have discourse about which buttons are trash and whether Person A cheated person B. To be human is to engage in pointless wankery sometimes.
The artist's full name is Horace Mitchell! I just learned a lot more about him in a fascinating article that came out today - How a Houston company got its art on the walls of stoners across America.
Here's the section that talks about this artist and poster:
Horace Mitchell was an undergraduate student at Rice University in 1968. Though he was studying physics, he was an amateur artist who loved science fiction novels and comic books. After reading about the Houston Blacklight in a local paper, Mitchell went to downtown Houston, sketchbook in tow. He sold his sketches to Jones, which would become the basis of four posters the company would publish: "The Trip," "Hassles," "Saturn" and "Chess." Mitchell was inspired by the work of the legendary Marvel Comics artists Jim Steranko and Jack Kirby, whose covers depicted towering characters set against psychedelic space-age landscapes.
"I had always sketched and drawn even as a kid," Mitchell remembered. "I got this bug that I would try to draw some big things."
The posters that went to market are different from what Mitchell drew. Some were resized, and colors were changed to be trippier under a black light. But for Mitchell, it was an exercise in representing abstract emotions and thoughts—ideas like space and time, optimism about the future—in accessible ways.
"It was sort of groundbreaking, the kinds of things they put in the posters that then wound up hanging in students' rooms because they represented ideas that really resonated with the students," Mitchell said.
That experience would serve him well in a much different role. After he finished his master's and PhD, Mitchell went on to work at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, running the agency's Scientific Visualization Studio in 1991, making hundreds of videos explaining everything from Mars' magnetic fields to hurricane animations. His work has been on news channels around the nation and even appeared in Leonardo DiCaprio's 2016 documentary Before the Flood. But he has always seen his work for the Houston Blacklight as the foundation of his career.
"I always had a joke: people would ask, 'Well, are you a real artist?' And I'll say, yes, I am. I'm published, but only because of those four things that got printed," Mitchell joked.
Here's the full collection of Houston Blacklight posters, from University of Houton's digital collections.

No I won't stop making monster couples its how I express my love.
Anywho meet Charlotte and Antonne, long story short he moved into an old house after the previous owners were driven off (may or may not have been Charlotte♥) and since he can't afford to move again he just deals with her and along the way they get friendly and shit.
I love the concept of elf-sleep and true-sleep. What if elves just fuckin………conk out for 18 hours and wake up forgetting what year it is when they true-sleep
@what-your-elf-eyes-see Not only am I into this, I’m obsessed with this. What if the reason why elves don’t really like to true-sleep is because they’re basically comatose and it makes them super vulnerable?
It takes him a minute to get started back up again, he’ll get there.
