Unfortunately this one can't be made into prints for blatant violence (my work usually skirts it; not today), but I can likely get them made elsewhere if there's demand.

Did you know lionesses will sometimes take out their males when the pride is under intense pressure? That's pretty cool. #art

Digital artwork with a square aspect ratio. It features six highly stylized lionesses in a pride circling a slain male lion. The male is shown from top-down view while the females are shown from a side view. The lionesses have mandala patterns in their fur. The dead male lion appears skinny and old. The style is similar to a vintage print on textured paper. The color themes are gold and red. The bottom right contains the artist's signature and the the word "yong-gi" which is a Korean word for courage.

we are a country rounding up pro-Palestine protesters because we're "rooting out antisemitism" and also a country normalizing Nazi salutes and totenkopf tattoos

I do not have a creatively punchy way to say that, I'm just losing my mind about it

the president has destroyed the east wing of the white house without so much as a word of input from anyone else to build a royal ballroom paid for with bribes

NEW: After The Washington Post reported Monday on the demolition of the "East Wing facade," a new picture obtained by Law Dork that was taken on Tuesday shows that a substantial portion of the entirety of the East Wing has been demolished.

the symbolism of “Trump destroying the White House for a overpriced luxury vanity project, during a government shut down, days after a historically-large mass demonstration against his regime called “No Kings”’ would be rightly viewed as laying it on a little thick if it was in a work of fiction

we have like 35 years of direct historical evidence of what happens to the US when you slash income tax and replace it with excise and consumption tax, not gonna check but I'm pretty sure everything was fine and everyone was happy

it's weird how rich guys will happily pour billions into argentina bailouts and white house ballrooms and all kinds of government priorities but if you suggest that they should be taxed more that's violence

American Fascism is so fucking lame, bro. Mussolini called back to Rome. Nazis made up this whole batshit aryan mythology to paper over Germany’s actual history as backwater barbarians. MAGA’s just like “remember when ads were full of white people and cars didn’t have pussy liberal crumple zones?”

A drawing of Mob from Mob Psycho 100. He is much larger than his surroundings. He is standing behind a utility pole. He is colored in pink shades and so is the sky behind him.
