a legendary artist. wrote the book on the way posters are done to this day but his specific handmade touch will be sorely missed in an era of photoshopped floating heads and half-assed AI imitations

RIP Drew Struzan - a man whose talent and imagination etched onto so many minds throughout the last 40+ years.

His art & posters are some of the first visuals I think of when I think about cinema - an invitation to watch these stories and worlds.

A massive loss 💔

Trump hates the picture “Times” chose for their front page. Let’s save it and spread it on different platforms like a wildfire.

I'm dying lmao

low angle picture of trump, apparently attempting to make him look triumphant. his dodgy translucent comb over is barely visible and revealing his bald head. his sagging neck waddle looks pretty yonic from this angle.

Sad news everyone, I’m officially pulling the plug on Brightsiders, my super fan podcast for the 2017 movie Bright. I still feel like there were many interesting topics left to discuss but after 7 years of weekly episodes I’ve learned that no one has ever listened to the show.

The extreme left would be fine if he got Kirked what are you talking about

The extreme left’s weird soft treatment of Nick Fuentes is a reminder that if you go far enough in either direction, you loop back around

A Halloween-themed Gasoline Alley Sunday strip by Frank King from 1923.

Lilith sketching 🙏

A sketch of Lilith Aensland standing on one leg, the other raised and bent, whilst she stretches her arms above her head. It's an impossible pose, due to the amount of core strength and balance it would require, not to mention the impossible arch of her back. But it's a drawing, so who cares?

I already posted this earlier but then I deleted it because I wanted to fix a couple of things. Don't hold it against me.

This is a great time to remind everyone that you should in fact, still be calling MasterCard, Visa, Stripe, and other payment processors to annoy the shit out of them.

Manga series Golden Kamuy has passed 30 million copies in circulation.

I think it’s safe to say it’s responsible for the recent spread of Ainu culture among the public that’s come with cultural revival and promotion.

Like everything it has things you can criticise but probably a net positive.

The cover of the 31st volume of the Golden Kamuy manga. The cover features a character dressed like a soldier from the Russo-Japanese war.
