For the record, I am not calling for violence against Bill Lee, simply saying that if anyone in power actually cared about crime, they’d be looking at Tennessee first and foremost because Memphis has the highest crime rate in the country.

If Trump and Vance think Pritzker should be in jail for the Illinois crime rate, they ought to be baying for TN gov. Bill Lee to be flat out executed over the crime rate in Memphis alone. But they never will because Bill Lee is a Republican in a red state.

I never even hear the word “mixtape” anymore unless it’s referring to some rapper’s demo CD, so it feels like a step up to me that at least this is referencing actual mixtapes.

Anyway, we’re going to see it today, and I fully expect to be miserable.

The protagonist is a fucking tech CEO who teams up with a 3D printed ChatGPT battle droid, what the fuck am I supposed to do with that as a Tron fan? Tron’s not even in it, but pedophile cult leader Jared Leto is? The Grid is barely in it? “Pro-corporate, pro-AI content slop” seems to be the vibe.

Nothing I’ve seen or heard about Ares makes me want to see it. This is not a Tron movie, this is an anti-Tron movie. The soundtrack doesn’t even live up to the rest of Reznor’s discography, half of it feeling extremely generic. I hate almost everything I know about this movie.

This was a genuine question. I keep seeing people saying we should have more costumes at protests like the Portland frog man, but like… how do we do that? Literally, how? I can’t figure it out on my own.

Eerie Emilie, the spookiest gay in the village @eerieemilie.bsky.social · 21h

Just out of logistical curiosity, how would one get to a protest with an inflatable frog costume? It seems like transportation would be difficult without putting it on once you’re there, but then how/where would you do that either?

Well I can’t seem to sleep well and I’m swinging between hot and cold. Probably means it’s time for a T break.

Fashion for magic practitioners. I had talks recently how wizard outfits in media mostly jump from traditional robe to a boring suit, so I doodled some self indulgent alternative that would incorporate my fav XIX century elements with some traditional wizard aesthethic and whimsy
#conceptart #art

Concept sketches for wizard outfits that mash up traditional wizard elements like big rimmed hats or big sleeves with XIX century waistcoats and cravats. All sprinkled with assymmetry and some bold patterns like stripes and celestial maps.

Aside from the topic of JKR's bigotry I had these talks recently that HP movies did one thing great (creatures) and one thing terribly - wizard clothes. Jason Isaacs had to ask for a cape and cane for his aristocratic character to not get put in a suit. I wanted some fun asymmetrical outfits.

Everyone working for ICE in any capacity needs to be ostracised, as do their spouses, their kids and their extended families.
If your job is to not show compassion for others and their families, then the same apples to you and yours, even if you're "just following orders".
No pasaràn.

Also: if you work for ICE, even if you’re not one of the ones arresting citizens or tackling 15-year-olds or zip-tying kids together and segregating them by race, you’re part of the mechanism making it happen, and you should suffer long-term social and post-regime-change consequences.

Some weirdo on Twitter has been absolutely melting down for like 36 straight hours because I posted:

When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.

October! Spooky fundraiser!

As we made last month's extreme goal (thank you, thank you,) we're caught up on bills and fees!

That means we can set a slightly more reasonable goal: 2500!

Art theme: Abstract Animals!

Paypal in bio, if you're European: bank info in the DMs!
