Artwork Revenge for Gryphon982 during Art Fight 2024. Shows a gryphon with taloned front and back feet. They are a mixture of paler brown and dark brown with banded and tiger like stripes with larger dark bands on the wings, head and tail, red feathering on cheeks, down the neck and along the tail until the red tuft and white underside. They have a yellow beak and green eyes. On the right is a Bumble Cat. They are persian like in fluffiness matching a bees yellow and black striping and a white tail tip. They have antaee, two sets of visible paws and wings. They are tapping a feather toy being held for them. Background is a pale of light green ovals on a plain olive green background. Artwork Revenge for Acrobetia during Art Fight 2023. Artwork depicts a four-horned black wool, long tailed sheep centaur with white ears in a half standing half hovering position on her rearmost legs. She is wearing various golden ribbons and beads including three sets of bells over her wool and plain green dress that drapes down her back. On the right of her is an image of a old style wheel crossed with a ship's wheel. On the left is the life cycle of a rabbit going from newly born to adult to skeleton and then a green ghost shape held between her hooved hands. This image features a bird like skull with higher nasal ridges, a double pointed crown and an additional four eye like shapes above the brow and the forehead. From the upper left and right sprout two wooden antlers covered in moss which have a pair of leaves in between. In the middle below the wooden pair is another set which are bone like and covered in thin rope. Below reflected on both sides is two shards of ice and three black feathers. The image shows a chimera made of multiple elements called a Notalope. He has a crocodile head with boar tusks, blue eyes, white rabbit ears and roe deer antlers. His head and neck are covered in brown giraffe like patterning over yellow and his neck has a yellow scruff mane like a giraffe. The forearms are structured for walking on down to three toes at the end with feathers that are clearly not designed for flight. The body is an orange base with brown tiger stripes and white stomach. The hind legs being deer like in structure and at the ankle the patterning changes to yellow instead of orange ending with yellow hooves. There is a running tuft of fur going down the hips into a yellow and browned striped tail than is reminiscent of a ring-tailed lemur with more of a point at the end.

Steve isn’t here anymore, but he always posted this picture on Hanukkah so I thought we could carry on his tradition and remember him.

Happy Hanukkah to our friends who celebrate. Rachel Posner, a rabbi’s wife in Kiel, Germany, took this photograph in 1931 -- a potent reminder that fascism must be fought in every generation, even if it's wrapped in an American flag and a red hat.

He’s also responsible for helping to overturn Prop 8 in CA, teeing up the original marriage equality cases that led to Obergefell, helping start First 5, getting smoking banned in CA bars, and dozens of other causes. The world lost a truly remarkable person.

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.

All from his movies.

Time to break this old thing out I guess.

Same toad now in hoose form.
Old digital artwork of a black heavy horse with white flash down his nose. He has pink socks on his ears and a guinea pig directing him in between. This made sense at the time.

my favorite thing about the benoit blanc movies is that they aren't really about benoit blanc. he is not grappling with demons from his past. we are not getting flashbacks to the husband whose murder he never solved. he just shows up and does his job like mary poppins for homicides

In my fandom hole currently:

Tales of Arcadia (I run @toa-archive.bsky.social tho currently on festive break)
Justice League: Gods and Monsters
The non edgy version of the Crime Syndicate, particularly Owlman

I never seem to end up liking the currently popular shit, only niche.

I will also go off about DCAU at any given opportunity but that should be expected. Fantastic storytelling and horrific body horror that reshaped my brain permanently and actually got a physical release unlike the also fantastic Gargoyles. Not seen the latter since the 90s because of it.

DC could make a killing re-releasing things that never got a physical UK release like say Static Shock but nooo easy money scary.

Extraordinary courage from Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim, 43-year-old father of two, who bravely risked his life to save his neighbors celebrating Hanukkah.

Praying for his full & speedy recovery.

And so deeply inspired by his example.
