I don't have anyone to photograph me on my bike rides so I have to do a bit of my own.

The Halloween Symbaroum game was a success. Got enough praise for it that I'm thinking of releasing it as a one-shot, once I have time to write it up proper. #TTRPG #FreeLeague

For anyone curious as to what rustled his jimmies enough to do this.
An image displaying a social media post from "Attorney General Todd Rokita" at the top, condemning a "vile comment" made by another user, which is partially shown below under a "BALL STATE UNIVERSITY" banner on a platform resembling X or Facebook. The highlighted comment discusses the death of Charlie Kirk, stating it's a tragedy for his family but also a "reflection of the violence, fear, and hatred he sowed," while also acknowledging other victims of violence, including children. Rokita's post emphasizes opposing political violence and questioning the ability of those making such comments to hold leadership positions. The image shows engagement metrics at the bottom: 405 reactions, 946 comments, and 78 shares.

None. He is crashing out because a college staffer (not even a teacher) said Kirk's violent rhetoric created a deadly consequence.

@darthbluesky.bsky.social my state's attorney general is on a witch hunt to punish educators and school workers who may have said something he deems as inappropriate about Charlie Kirk. I'm just hoping to spread the word in hopes of creating good trouble for his snitch portal.
screenshot of a social media post from Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita about the "Eyes on Education" portal. The post urges Hoosiers to submit evidence of educators or school administrators making comments celebrating or rationalizing the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and emphasizes holding these individuals accountable. Below the main post, there is a comment from "Jill Kaye" asking where to report educators making racist and sexist comments and posts. The image also includes elements like "Liberty In Action" and the "Eyes on Education" portal logo.

@aclu.org @acluindiana.bsky.social please tell me you're aware of Indiana Attorney General's current witch hunt against educators, including the doxxing of a college staff member. He posted her info and it was pulled by Libs of TikTok.

The post asks Hoosiers to submit evidence of educators celebrating or rationalizing the assassination of Charlie Kirk, emphasizing accountability and empowering parents. Below the post, a comment from Jill Kaye asks where to report racist and sexist comments and posts made by educators. The image also includes elements of the "Eyes on Education" website interface. A screenshot of a social media post from Suzanne Swierc, Director of Health Promotion and Advocacy at Ball State University. The post, from an "X" (formerly Twitter) account, features a profile picture of Swierc, a woman with curly brown hair and a pink jacket, smiling. The text of her post discusses the death of Charlie Kirk, stating, "Let me be clear: if you think Charlie Kirk was a wonderful person, we can't be friends." She acknowledges his death as a tragedy and prays for his soul but adds, "Charlie Kirk's death is a reflection of the violence, fear, and hatred he sowed." She also mentions feeling for a college campus experiencing an active shooter situation and references other tragedies, including the deaths of children shot in Minneapolis and Colorado, concluding with, "Charlie Kirk excused the deaths of children in the name of the second amendment." The Ball State University logo is visible at the top left.

Hey Ron, I'm trying to spread the word and hope you can help spread the message. I live in Indiana and our Attorney General is currently on a witch hunt to punish teachers and school workers who might make comments he feels is insensitive to Charlie Kirk.

The attorney general of my state is going on a witch hunt to target people who work at schools if they say something bad about Charlie Kirk. I'm not saying anyone should spam it, but if you want to...

MAGA when someone says that Trump's actions are against the Constitution:
The image is a two-panel meme featuring D.W. from the animated show "Arthur." In the top panel, D.W., a young aardvark wearing a brown dress, looks thoughtfully at a yellow sign hanging on a wooden door. The sign reads "THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA". The bottom panel shows D.W. now facing away from the door, with the same sign visible in the background. Below D.W., text in white with a black outline reads, "That sign won't stop me. because I can't read!"

The nice thing about working for a university that has red as a primary color is that you're always finding nice color contrasts to capture while out doing street photography. What do you think, does the framing work here?

My fiance is one of the kindest and most creative people I know. She's a queen to me. The way she moves through life is an art form to me. I wanted to make some portraits about how I see her.

A woman split into three images, holding a camera with streaks of red light coming off of her. A woman wearing a crown with a slow shutter drag splits her portrait onto two, red and blue color fills the shadows of the shitter drag. A woman holds a Fujifilm camera in a portrait that uses slow shutter to create a vapor wave effect.

I'm convinced that my cat is somehow related to Archimedes from "The Sword in the Stone."
A two-part image shows a cat and an animated owl. The top image is a close-up of a brown tabby cat with green eyes, looking slightly down and to the left with a somewhat displeased expression. It has a tag hanging from its collar. The bottom image shows a cartoon owl with brown and tan feathers, large yellow eyes, and thick white eyebrows, also looking displeased. The owl is perched on a branch, with a purple and blue background featuring butterfly shapes.

A painted face matching a painted canvas.

This a project I worked on with the David Owlsey Museum of Art and the Ball State University College of Fine Arts where stage make-up students made "living artwork" based on pieces in the museum.

A grayscale photo shows a funnel cake stand at night. Inside, a person with their hair pulled back is visible through a large window, preparing a funnel cake. Another person in a dark shirt stands further back. In the background, people are gathered outside, facing the stand. A bright streetlight illuminates the scene, and tents are visible in the distance under a dusky sky.

The girl at Taco Bell is trying to gaslight me.

"Do you all not have the 2 chalupa combo anymore?"

"Yeah, we do, it's the number six."
The TV display of the Taco Bell menu listing the #6 meal as a chicken quesadilla, the chalupa combo is not listed on the menu.

Ally Becki was named the Mid-American Player of the Year. She is one of eight players in history to record 1,500 points, 700 rebounds, and 650 assists. She was named the MAC Tournament MVP after leading the Cardinals to a MAC Championship. Here's my portrait of her.

Overall, I would say roughly 100-125 people showed up who were not allowed in the building. Granted, I am really bad at estimating crowd sizes. Hearing the room where the townhall was held maxed out at 160 people.

Here is the woman previously mentioned who "lost her teeth."

She was originally given a ticket to get inside but was then made to leave due to Spartz team "not accounting for enough staff."

Nothing particularly newsworthy, but I legitimately enjoyed her presence.

The Victoria Spartz town hall is over, I'm not sure if the protest is still going on, as I had to leave, but it was rather lively. A few counter protestors showed up but it did not take long before they were shut down.
