This is why I truly believe researching, checking and evaluating sources, branching out into teaching yourself about mundane and complex things is so important

They have such little else to take from us, they’re trying to make using your own intelligence harder and behind a paywall

Don’t let them

Blue tiefling female with a black dress and gold trim holding a long staff with a death-mask face leaking ichor. Her right arm and head are dropped with gold, her right hand is mechanical and made from it. Yellow butterflies hover around her open palm. Her skull is cracked at the side to reveal pomegranate seeds. She is a warlock whose patron is the god of decay.

Reference sheet of a pink skinned, purple haired tiefling girl doing a peace sign towards the viewer. She wears a frilly white skirt, an off-the-shoulder blue blouse and brown leather heeled boots with purple bows. Her tail has a frilly white sleeve on the end, which is spade-shaped and pierced. She has crescent shaped horns and wears a star shaped pin in her hair. There is a separate call out of her smiling with sharp teeth and a side view showing how her horns connect.

It has vibrant pink gills around its gaping jaw, which has lots of sharp teeth. It has piercing luminous green eyes and large green fins that run down its back and on its tail. On its forehead it has a glowing green lure.

Portrait illustration of a purple-skinned elven woman with blue eyes and white hair formed into locs. She has crystalline horns coming from the base of her neck and wrapped around her front like tusks with large golden earrings. Her face has golden lines in the stripes down the front and she wears a nose ring. She's wearing a high-necked robe with no sleeves.

A rare post from me to flail about how excited I am to have sent my first donation of $445 to the Immigrant Defense Network through sales of my piece Minnesota Spite! You may have seen a similar AI-generated piece floating around on shady popup sites, but only the original supports local causes.

Achilles and Patroclos, standing next to each other in front of a raging fire. Achilles is outfitted for battle and looks wistfully into the distance, while Patroclos ties some laces of his armor, also looking sad. Behind them and above there's the mosaic of a warrior in his chariot.

My assignment for Winona Nelson's SmArtschool class: Choose a favorite book and illustrate a cover for it.

I picked "The Song of Achilles" by Madeline Miller, and my goal was to capture a similar bittersweet tone as the novel has.

Ignis and Gladiolus as members of King Noctis's high council. Did these as a part of the FFXV playing card deck I made a few years ago and still really like them.

They will call it soft.
They will call it indulgent.
They will say now is not the time
as if time has ever been gentle enough
to wait.
Writersβ€”
you are not decorating the wreckage.
You are naming it
so it cannot pretend to be natural.
Poetsβ€”
your metaphors are not escapes;
they are contraband.
You smuggle truth past numbness
in the lining of a line break.
Artistsβ€”
you are not making things β€œbeautiful.”
You are making things visible
when power prefers a blur.
In crisis, language fractures.
When systems fail,
art becomes the nervous system
a way to feel when feeling is dangerous,
a way to remember when forgetting is convenient.
Make the poem that trembles.
Paint the image that refuses closure.
Write the sentence that leaves fingerprints
on the reader’s throat.
Because in the long emergency,
art is not commentary
it is infrastructure.
Keep making.
Not because it will save us
but because without it,
we won’t even know
what we are trying to save.

Thank you artists poets and writers of Bluesky this is for youβ€” Prue.
May 2026 be kinder and May you keep creating.
