Well, hello (again) everybody! Just got finished purging most of the tweets on my profile to start fresh. It's gonna be nothing but illustrations and animation projects on here. Maybe the occasional unrelated/quote tweets, but it's mostly going to be project oriented.

@jvepng Back when you actually wanted to be on Twitter and it was still fun

More welcome screens from old versions of twitter

Inspired by the way eyebrows enhance expressiveness in Peanuts and just thought it was missing from the design. Now the one without eyebrows doesn't even look normal anymore to me.

Version with eyebrows cause it's more expressive

Been a little while but just thought I'd share a new illustration! Felt like drawing Mr. Bump in Adobe Illustrator just cause he's so cute and is my fav character in Mr. Men 🤕🥰

Also I did get this from the official art for the Mr. Men Show, but I made a couple tweaks to improve the design and make it more faithful to Hargreaves's original style because I'm gonna be honest here, elements of the show's style don't lend themselves as well to his style.

@CultureCrave If you really think about it, nobody would even be a "billionaire" if we didn't live in a society built on belief.

@CultureCrave Funny how we didn't choose to be born in this cruel world and and got psychologically manipulated by a group of people to become powerful and successful and brainwashed into thinking we have to pay for things that used to come naturally

Starbucks CEO defends a $9 coffee ☕️ • Says it can be worth it for a 'premium experience' — examples include a nice place to sit and friendly baristas • He thinks some people look at it as 'really affordable' because it's 'less than $10' "In some cases, $9 does feel like you're splurging ... that means we have to make it worth your while" (via @WSJ)

@meme__jpg @ScottTheWoz Kind of as poignant of a cautionary tale as Cat's in the Cradle

@meme__jpg @ScottTheWoz In short, it's just astonishing how some YouTubers become somewhat burned out and forgo how they used to operate to expand their presence while others just become completely unrecognizable shells of their former selves

@meme__jpg @ScottTheWoz I miss Scott, I don't miss King. He was like the equivalent of a Macbeth tragedy waiting to happen.

@ProjectFantasia I bet the CEO was on a yacht drinking a glass of wine and ignoring everything cuz they don't give a shit

Such a sad thing why.....Warner Bros abandoned so many of the classic shows......it is no wonder why Tubi is slowly getting them so it can be seen. And I was watching it...but what was Cartoon Network doing while their show reached 30 years and not pay attention.

@hemendra_tri @PopBase @taylorswift13 Billionaire who only donated 5% of her net worth lifetime vs a millionaire that donated 25% of hers in a single act. Pick your poison. 🤭

@PopBase @taylorswift13 She’s literally put food on a lot of your faves’ tables, and still people stay ungrateful.

Taylor Swift’s record contract could lead to millions of dollars being paid to artists as UMG prepares to sell half of their equity stake in Spotify. When Swift signed her contract in 2018, she negotiated a clause stating that any sale of UMG’s Spotify shares would result in a distribution of money to their artists, non-recoupable. Her “non-recoupable” clause ensures that artists receive that money even if they still owe advances to the label that signed them. (billboard.com/pro/taylor-swi…)

@DexLabfan They claim they do all this because linear TV is declining, but I feel the real reason it "declines" is because you guys don't even give us anything good to watch anymore and keep making bad corporate decisions that further ruin things.

@DexLabfan Not to mention co-productions or outside programming feel like they're a thing of the past. I haven't seen anything that isn't in-house or recycled old content in over a decade. Internationally though, everything is better unsurprisingly and their programming is far more diverse.

Kind of disappointing to see honestly but unsurprisingly CN doesn't care about their older stuff pre 2008 and also they're literally in shambles......... I got to keep that in mind, but not too much where they have to banking on nostalgic 2010 show revivals

@BasicAppleGuy I’m sorry but the official one from Apple is cuter than that fan-made version 😭
