truly, if the people you're around think america is irredeemably conservative they probably just assume that "america" meaningfully only means the views of white americans

the other thing i’ll say here is i am a bit frustrated with the narrative of online radicalization that treats it as akin to brainwashing. it lets individuals, families and communities off the hook for the choices they make and the environments they foster
this also drives me insane, this idea that it is the most normal thing in the world for a young (white) man to have a nazi curious phase. it isn’t!
one of my favorite background running gags of the majority of my life is "Warner Bros Tries, and Fails, To Figure it Out"
Breaking News: Warner Bros. Discovery, the owner of HBO, CNN and the Warner Bros. studio, is considering a whole or partial sale of the company.
Warner Bros. Discovery Says It Is Considering a Sale
The owner of CNN, HBO and the Warner Bros. movie studio revealed that it has received acquisition interest from multiple suitors.

If you picture in your mind what "Quirky French detective who investigates high-profile art theft" looks like you'll be pleased to know that you got it EXACTLY correct.

we've reached a saturation point where furry art is so ubiquitous and so popular that it's created a sort of stylistic inbreeding. the thing I'd like to see more of is artists who are looking at stuff outside the bounds of the typical interests of the fandom - stuff outside of even my own interests

ok.
art in the fandom can be incredibly inward-facing. artists can, and often do, have all the technical skills of a pro illustrator, but are incredibly limited thematically and stylistically by a clear aversion to drawing on artistic influences outside the fandom/contemporary media (anime, etc).
What is your biggest furry art gripe?

And let's get the biggest one out of the way:

Here's a gift link to the New York Times' coverage of the initial Tea Party rallies in April 2009 which inspired the media to treat it like a massive movement.

Check out how tiny the crowds were:

Philly: 200
DC: "several hundred"
Boston: 500
Austin: 1,000
Houston: 2,000

"are there any parades that don't exist that you think should?" is a real question asked of the men seeking to run New York City and the responses represent a real missed opportunity

"New Far Side comics" was definitely not on my bingo card for this week. They're not bad!

in 1968 sottsass designed the prettiest manual typewriter ever released (imo), the Olivetti Valentine. this is one of my holy grail things to get someday.

(for his part, sottsass later disliked the valentine and said it was a failure bc he wanted it to be cheap and disposable, not just art)
hell yeah! theo put some Statement LEDs in your old bedroom and it looks really sharp.

biggest thing i can suggest to improve the space beyond that is a tad annoying to do but really helps more than youd think: put up curtains and use them instead of vertical blinds. makes the place look 'spensive
