Sal (Comms Open)

Average US commute is double that ~20km, but commute times are also longer ~45min

I can do 20km in about 50 minutes on my ebike.

Obviously safe infrastructure is a problem, but if you have an option, an ebike pays for itself in health benefits & is way cheaper.

Something to think about as gas prices go up.

Average commute in Canada is 10km 1 way.

Mine is 10km 1 way

Takes ~17 minutes by car, ~30 minutes on my ebike.

My Tucson gets ~450km on a tank which today is ~$75.

Ebike ~$0.10/charge so ~$2 a month.

Take 13min longer, save $73, get fit.

Mario do something. Mario.

Multiple digital drawings of Nagi Usui from Neo: The World Ends With You. The main center has Nagi standing up against a scolipede from pokemon loafing. Bottom right she has a shocked expression and her pose is defensive. Above her she makes a silly face. The the top left corner and above the scolipede's head are two chibi drawings of her. In between those is Nagi as an octoling from the splatoon series The background is purple and there are spiky pops of colors through out the background.

A flygon pokemon in a dynamic flight pose, done in the style of The World Ends With You noise. Its wings, tailtip, eye lenses, and claws are tattoo like and sharp looking.

Same image as before, but blue and orange instead of green and red.

Do you think noise pokemon would still have shinies? I remembered that shinies were a thing so made an alt this time

Green haired chibi man holds a scythe while standing in a walled garden. He gives the viewer a crooked smile.

Chibi of Simon. Ngl I've been having a hard time with his design-- but I think the current look might be okay.

Side note: Simon is the guardian of a maze-like space, and has the ability to summon a water-like scythe.

Comic depicting the ADHD Alien character holding her phone in shock. She is hunched over a mop with the floor behind her still wet. Her hair and clothing look a bit unkempt. The text says "things I should take to the grave but I'll tell you: Before meeting my boyfriend for the first time, I had to clean my place for 8 days." The phone in her hands shows her boyfriend on a call, saying "Good news! I'll arrive an hour earlier!"

Holding the illusion that I have my life together by my last nerve (he did go eat a sandwich for an hour so he wouldn't be an hour early)

goo-ing on an adventure :)

Photo of a drawing of mathematical art (descriptive geometry) next to a canvas showing the same drawing in an earlier stage (construction nearly done, no coloring yet). Both show how circles on a sphere containing the North Pole are projected onto lines. By elkement 2024/2026.

I am re-creating my 2024 drawing "Circles to Lines" on gesssoed and sanded canvas!

The construction is nearly done: Six circles on the surface of a sphere, containing the North Pole --> projected onto lines via stereographic projection.

It's more of the fact they're pushing for its usage. But you know what, sure I can write them an email to remove it as well~!

I don't use Notion heavily as my main tracking source so it's a minor switch over for me. It's meant to be a summary for clients/whoever. Thanks for letting me know!

Kan is the open source alternative to Trello. You have the option of having it on the cloud (like Notion, Trello) or you can self host it if that interests you.

I converted my current comm queue over to it & have made use of labels to add some colour and treat them as "fields". It works well enough

Sorta related to comms, but I'm trying out kanbn as a replacement for Notion as a comm work queue. I'm sick of the push of AI Agents that the latest update from Notion finally kicked looking for an alternative up into high gear. Kanbn is on the simpler end like Trello, but it'll do!

The center is a Mars (Fire) one called Shine and below them is another Mars one called Cinder. The right column are all Jupiter ones - Ether, Breeze and Puff.

Digital art sketch of my OC, Chisa, in a cell shaded style, is sitting down with her legs partially drawn up as she looks up and to the side, smiling.

Commission Update! Most comms are on now on waitlist except for the really, REALLY small ones like Surprise Me Coloured Character Sketches!

I'm hoping comms will open back up by end of April! ✨
