Hi Bluesky! I'm a freelance illustrator, currently wondering what sort of art to do next, here are a bunch of my alternative poster designs (which I'll probably add to in the future) 😁

I just don't understand how they have so completely separated what they do from what they say. Hypocrisy has been a feature for them for ages but this goes beyond even that

Neurologically speaking, there's no such thing as 'useless' subjects or 'rip-off' degrees

Insisting we should only teach useful subjects is like saying science should only do research that gives positive results

If you honestly believe that's how anything works, *your* education was the wasted one

I’m getting fed up with how many times we are seeing things we all bloody KNEW were going on, being presented as new revelations… The Entire Brexit campaign was clearly a moonshot for Putin, but the opportunity to break off a key part of the EU was irresistible.
Of COURSE he was involved.

Do they not get that this sounds like “unless you let Trump be king we will try to starve you out”? I guess optics don’t matter when you’re running a cult.

I’m a woman, and Carole Malone does not speak for me.

Carole Malone, "Youu can't say what women's rights are because you're not a woman"

Zack Polanski, "You're not trans are you. We can all say you're not that thing so you can't have an opinion" 🔥

"You can still have an opinion from listening to people"

Take a few minutes to appreciate Drew Struzan creating the original artwork for THE PHANTOM MENACE. Truly a master at work.

If you ever had any doubt that the youth wing of the GOP is fully radicalized and proudly racist these days:

With the AI Google summaries, people aren't just cherry-picking the failures. The only time it is 100% is when there is an extremely easy and well-known answer to your inquiry. If it's anything you'd actually need to dig to find, it will hallucinate a fake answer basically every time.

The fundamental divide is between…

Those who live off wages

And those who live of wealth

But those who live of wealth will do everything in their power to convince you the divide is between immigrants and non-immigrants, black and white, trans and non-trans…

… ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE REALITY.

The Middle East is being conned just like America has been conned.

None of what Trump is saying about the Israel-Gaza war being over is true.

None of the agreements he claims have been made have been made, besides a single hostage deal.

He’s lying to the world, and much of the world believes him.

Trump on Orban: "We love Viktor. You are fantastic, alright? I know a lot of people don't agree with me, but I'm the only one that matters. He's a great leader. I endorsed him the last election he had and he won by 28 points. You're gonna do even better this time when you have another election."

Had to say goodbye to my beloved boy today. 16 years old though, a good innings. Still devastated 😢
