lil evening drawing… sleepy Sweet Pea

[c-rowlesdraws]

it’s been a minute, but I’m finally opening again for personal commissions! Please see examples of what to expect below, and write to crowles90 at gmail.com if you’d like some artwork! Reference images for characters, costuming, etc are a huge help, but I can work with a written description, too— and if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask them!

Design Commission for SnoweyStorm! 🐇

[gurlu]

When I was in my teens, I used to make an entire magic system with 360+ unique spells, ordered in magic schools and categories, and it boggles my mind that I basically reinvented DnD mechanics, even down to metamagic.

I wanted to make a wiki about it but I don't have time for it.

The point was to try to encompass every "superpower" I could think of into a magic system.

I even got lore related to it all, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna simply reuse it all for OC worldbuilding. Ngl the fun part was naming all the spells, symbols and coming up with the logic of it all.

Important addition

[unichrome]

The higgs boson discovery was made possible by AI sifting through data that was estimated to take humans 500 years to go through and with less accuracy.

AI/ML is a tool like any other. It's not a miracle fix for everything, just like how it isn't an evil entity

[fieldbears]

Getting my big font because I've said this before and I'm getting angy about it:

You need to stop saying "AI" when you mean "generative AI".

You need to stop inferring "generative AI" when you just see "AI".

You are throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

learning that addiction is a progressive narrowing of the range of things that make one happy was kinda life changing for me. i apply it to everything not even just addiction i am always checking to ask if i am narrowing my range of happiness or widening it

[dragongirlsweetie]

i'm gonna be honest i don't get why they say everypony instead of everybody in mlp. it's not like the word everybody is human-specific. the ponies have bodies. the word everypony, however, is pony-specific in a world where ponies are not the only people in their society, which means it would be more accurate and inclusive to use everybody instead of everypony. it all makes no sense to me

maybe they all hate spike..?

watching gen z and millennials make fun of gen alpha has been torturous. "But they're actually stupid" 1. theyre middle schoolers 2. isn't that what older gens said about us? don't you remember being 11?

it truly is just "impulse reaction to cringe <- has not yet unlearned shame"

the cycle continues let me out of here

guys. guys I think we should kill cringe culture

[draculasstrawhat]

My kids and their friends are Gen Alpha, and they are sweet, sweet kids living though appalling times.

They grew up with the most rigidly binary models of childhood that have existed in my lifetime (girl-glue, anyone?) and been viewed as their earning potential since before they could walk. They have been exploited and abandoned on the internet by their parents, have been exploited on the internet by the algorithm when they were too young to understand it. They are the first large generation of the children of Mommy bloggers, anti-vaxxers, trad wives, and quiverful types.

They’ve survived a pandemic, and had it cut through their schooling in a way that has been enormously traumatic. They have the smallest outdoor range of any generation to date. In their lifetime, climate change has become violently real, socioeconomic disparity has only increased, reactionary movements have increased, and rights that we’ve taken for granted have been rolled back. They are the generation of British trans kids taking their lives on the now-static youth GIC waiting lists. The American trans kids who are watching their very existence become illegal. They are the generation of creative kids whose arts and humanities funding has been cut to the bone. A generation who have grown up watching soft-lit, queer friendly cartoons, walking out in to a world of violent trans and homophobia.

They are depressed, anxious, afraid. Their aspirations are low, their hopes for the future fragile.

They are clever, and creative, and charming, and brave. And they are KIDS.

Be nice to them, they’re dealing with a lot.

I'm convinced an alarming number people really have genuinely forgotten what it was like to be 11. The same people don't really remember 16 or 20 or 25 very well either. It's a phenomenon I genuinely don't understand. Maybe I was just so thoroughly traumatized growing up that those eras are burned eternally in my memory. Dear other adults: I am thirty to forty years old. PLEASE ffs remember what it was like to be a kid. Remember what it was like when your parents were invalidating, embarrassed of you, thought your interests and concerns were stupid, and were more concerned with their experience than yours. Remember how much that sucked and try to do a little better. Also remember...they grow up. They become adults. And if they're like me they finally reach that mystical "older" where adults used to say "you'll understand when you're older". And figure out you were an asshole, an idiot, selfish, ignorant, full of it, or worse the whole time. Time won't vindicate you being a jerk to kids.

If I had a nickle for every friend I met through MLP:FiM that realized they were transgender within the past decade, I'd have nearly 50 cents.

A handful of commissions I've finished recently! owo Thank you all so much for the support ;w; I've been mighty pleased with how my commissions have been coming out recently; I dunno, just feels like my skill level has increased a small bit as of late. :)
