Why has every twink I've met in university been obsessed with the word "kafkaesque"?

Why has every twink I've met in university been obsessed with the word "kafkaesque"?
Kinda fucked up that I need to freeze my ass off for 2h to get to an interview to actually learn what a job that I might not even get would pay me
I love the art world
I second this. None of my characters nowadays feature more than a few layers of clothing, and I try to make it something I'd actually wear
Makes my life simple when I model my 3D refs too
The urge to adopt two dogs, one big, one small, and name them Porter and House
(House ironically being the small one by the way btw)

I had so much fun with this painting! And I love persimmons. medium: Nicker poster colour on Arches watercolour paper
Remember: it's not piracy if it's discontinued
But, I will still try and chip away at graphic novels in my free time, after university is completely settled, and I have a more long term position
Sort of slowly giving up on freelance, can't seem to clear my minimum needs of 1000 euro per month doing that
With my mortgage being 400, and me needing to eat and actually furnish my home... I can't see myself funding myself through art independently anymore, the way I thought I would as a teen.
The work has been more enjoyable, even if it's not the stuff I'm most used to, and therefore efficient at making, but I'm picking it up well enough, and the results are good
I really need something fulltime, because part time and gigging ain't cutting it
Really hard to make art that's post-worthy, or persona right now, not even getting much coms at the moment
I've been busy with graduation projects, and doing a shit ton of free labor in the hopes of getting picked up by a studio
I'm doing a week long trial, this time for my top-pick in my country-
The humble cup ramen cries.
Ian crunches it dry.

screenshot of two posts from bsky twitter account "Congrats to X for being the world’s #1 app for explaining why ephebophilia is different The fact that none of you had to look up “ephebophilia” proves our point"
lmao man who is running the bsky twitter account
I have no clue who prompted (heh) the inclusion of slop, but their position in organizing the con really ought to be re-evaluated
The alley is to support real artists and commemorate being there with souvenirs. Generative images have no place there
Hello, my name is Vladi, and I'm a (hopefully graduating soon) animation student. Life threw some stuff at me as of late, so I'm in need of more freelance/remote work to make things work...

But it's Christmas! 😭
Always satisfying to see your stuff in print 👌
Not quite my usual art style, but, I was commissioned a holiday card, and given the permission to put it up on my print store!
I think it was a cute idea, inspired by a couple of smurf panels the client liked

Tldr: I get by on physical labor and art gigs at the moment, while I wait for studio applications to go through, but I tweaked my back pretty bad at a renovation cleanup
Need the extra funds #commissions

Idk dude, if the Epic of Gilgamesh was so good, why didn't they make a sequel?
a tote bag that reads EAT MY NUTS JEFF BEZOS
Passive-aggressively bringing my inventory to this show in my own tote bags.
It's funny to me, that bar for my long hair and decent emotional maturity, I really closely follow a lot of what the bullshit idealized stereotype of a "high test male" entails...
But my views just could not even remotely align with that bozo's
I needed the free trial for an interview process that took longer than expected
I'm so glad there's a stupid loop hole, where you can swap your plan and then cancel for free...
Cheers to them getting sued over this
Adobe are bastards
Cheated me out of 26€ because the way they word their cancelation terms is ass, and was translated poorly to my native language (which I hate using for stuff like this for suh reasons)
And the fucking cancellation fee...
Purchased with birthday book tokens .....
And I used to laugh at the dead internet theorists 😭
The richest man on earth owns X.
The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.
The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.
See the problem here?
Map of the Vale. When I generated it, I thought that wiggly thing was a road, but is in fact a valley. Oh noes!
Starting running Mythic Bastionland on Tuesday, and sorting out the map. This is the player facing one. I look at this and think "Yes, this is what my mum thinks an RPG looks like."
Are we at the point where we can compare the state of the world to Idiocracy, without it sounding edgy or weirdly pretentious?
No chef with a culinary degree and 3 Michelin stars behind their belt, could ever hope to match the mekitsi of a soviet grandma who works with a stall with the square area of a bed, and closes for her afternoon nap
