Yesterday's drawing, taken from the rat-tober prompt list by @thebeanbaguette.bsky.social.

Pencil sketch of "Mister Rat-gers Neighborhood", with a rat in a sweater standing on a chair. It's labeled "wholesome rat", which was the prompt.

Posting it a bit late, but last weekend I finally achieved a Pokemon goal several years in the making, and won my first League Cup! Here's the traditional deck list pic. VStar marker by @taterdash.bsky.social!

A Pokemon TCG deck spread out over a playmat that says "champion" in the corner. The deck is based on Dragapult cards, which coincidentally is also the Pokemon depicted on the playmat. There's also a cute watercolor painted "eevee-star" marker token in the corner.

I hate living in a state that wants to murder its citizens.

I found the saddest window in the math building.

Three windows in a row in an old building. Two of them have devices at the bottom on the frames for locking them closed. On the middle one, most of the device is missing, leaving some hardware in the shape of a frowny face.
A close up of the middle window with frowny face from the other picture. The face is made of four screws at the corners of a rectangle. The top two are the eyes, and a curved piece of metal connects the bottom two to form the frown. The window looks to be extremely sad or distressed. Also, it's nighttime, so instead of outside, the reflection of a railing behind me is visible in the window.

I don't know which "team" I'm on, but this (boundedness of elliptic curve ranks) is the rare question in math where not only do we not have a proof, not only do we not know the answer, but *people firmly believe different things*. So progress toward one or the other is really exciting!

#MathSky number theorists!! Elkies and Klagsburn have found an elliptic curve over QQ of rank 29 🤯 web.math.pmf.unizg.hr/~duje/tors/t... h/t @mathandcobb.bsky.social

I made a mini zine about how to tell my two cats, Bix and Benny, apart! This is the front and back covers; inner pages in replies. #art#zine#cats#bix#benny

The front page of a mini zine. It says "How to distinguish my two cats Bix and Benny using Silly Food Metaphors - August 2024 - Taterdash" There is an illustration of two cats that are white with black spots. The one under the word "Bix" is a bit rounder than the other, and has more black on their head.
Back cover of a mini zine. It reads: Benny + Bix are my two cow cats. They're brothers! [Illustration of a white cat with black spots that is lithe] Benny is a dextrous, calorie-seeking missile made of sinew and elbows. [Illustration of a white cat with black spots that is more round] Bix is a sturdy boy who loves solving puzzles, napping in the sun, and not jumping very often. August 2024 @taterdash

I drew a speedskating Glaceon! #art#pokemon

Digital drawing of Glaceon competing in short track speed skating. She's wearing gray skates with gold blades, and a black helmet with number 471 on it. Her ears are sticking out of holes in the helmet. The helmet also has blue diamonds painted on the front like the ones on her forehead that it's covering up. Glaceon is leaning into a left turn, her left front skate just barely going inside of the orange track marker.

A three panel illustrated comic with a cute white bunny character wearing a pink sweater. First panel: bunny is frowning in anger and putting a piece of paper with a six-fingered hand drawn on it into a wastebasket while saying "'AI art' belongs in the garbage". Second panel: bunny is looking upset and paper is crumbled in wastebasket next to them. They're saying "AI generated images use stolen artwork and data from thousands of artists without consent". Third panel: bunny is now smiling while holding a lit match, the waste basket is now on fire. They're saying "we don't have to accept this, AI is not inevitable. Fight back and support human artists!".
