I don't think we appreciate enough how easy it is to use a mouse while holding a pencil in the same hand. Not only is it useful, but it's also such a goddamn aesthetic

Something I'd love to see studied but definitely hasn't been is how humans arrange themselves while waiting in groups in spaces. Empty rooms, tables but no chairs, tables and chairs, random objects, etc. I have a ton of meetings at work and watching the way people filter into rooms is fascinating

The thing is, it's not really the map that Jerry has designed here. Not quite. Instead, his art has been directed by a magnificent deck of cards of his own creation, filled with different rules that he's constantly tweaking and updating.

The chipmunks, too, are visited by angels: spirits which share their morphology, except that they have millions of cheeks, stuffed with millions of seeds. Cheeks like undulations of divine fire, tiling reality

Yet another new project lol. This time it's a monster tamer that takes place inside a giant evil tower that's locked in time stasis. Here's some of the NPCs, the Architect and Codicier.

Hey all! My partner is hosting a #gamejam based around games like Zoo Tycoon! 🦒 It's running from tomorrow until May 13th, so if you like animals or game dev (or animal game dev), you should totally come check it out and participate! itch.io/jam/lets-go-...

itch.ioLet's Go To The Zoo Jam!!A game jam from 2026-04-13 to 2026-05-14 hosted by Echinobeast. This is my first game jam!! I've thought about hosting for awhile and decided to bite the bullet and finally put one together! Gone are ...

Lexically, parentheses and quotation marks are super interesting. Very few written symbols depend on another symbol later in the script to provide meaning. I think more conlangs should use contextually defined symbols like that, even just for standard sound glyphs

My experience with Highguard: I wanted to try it out before it shut down. So, I downloaded it, booted it up... and then spent twenty minutes troubleshooting so many errors that I gave up. Man, I *like* hero shooters and wanted to give it a fair shake, but it literally didn't even let me. RIP.

What’s a number (or set of numbers) in your field or hobby that might seem unrelated but anyone else in that group would recognise in an instant? 221 255 260 289 302 351

Some more of my OCs! A group of sillies that are best friends despite their differences. From left to right: Miki, a chef and the heart of the group Hayley, the American exchange student Pirona, a quiet and shy clown girl Meiru, a sci-fi loving cosplay dweeb

Elenora comic! I've always loved comics, so I want to get back into drawing them. This is a quick one-page test for a sort of warm-up while I tinker with something long-form. Meet Elenora's friends: Hattie the flatwoods monster, Cameron the bat boy, and Kelly the (???)! [ #oc #mythoverse ]

IT'S STILL #YEAROFTHESNAKE, BABY! Elenora is a fusion of three gorgon sisters, and splits up under stress: El, oldest and most level-headed (also a huge bookworm and nerd); Nora, a meathead jock with a short temper; and Lea, the youngest, silliest, and most social of the three. [ #oc #mythoverse ]

this is probably my favorite out of all the memes i drew for nonog. Twoj is the Stillborn God among its other titles, and I've just always wanted to do a loss edit [ #nonog #worldbuilding ]

moooooore memes :3 I always feel like death is such a complex topic that there should be more than just one "dEaTh gOd" doing it all. Ghatura can see the spirits of the dead, but it's not a psychopomp or anything. [ #nonog #worldbuilding ]

It's my banner but I never actually posted it here! One of the wild encounters in the Shaped Lands is a samorah, a local morphovore. They tend to ignore little creatures like chimeras, as long as they don't look too... shapey. [ #nonog #fantasyart ]

despite being considered a god of healing, buvpitap is simply the god of growth, and its ultimate plan is just to consume the entire world. the worldflesh is a remnant of its first attempt to do so [ #nonog #worldbuilding ]

Might as well post more critters from my #Nonog #ttrpg project. Here are some Iridini, mountain-born tanks made from crystal and stone. They can breathe beams of pure light like a dragon and have magnetized brains!

Sparan arrives at the town-grave of Twoj, the Stillborn God. After a long and grueling journey through the Undying Steppe, it's little comfort to see the Divine Corpse, but hopefully she can still get a hot meal and a proper bed in this morbid place. [ #oc #nonog ]
