I am positively Jah-awful at drawing and always have been, but my kids have asked me to do enough of it lately that I’ve improved marginally (by realizing that the legs kinda go in front of the body. To reward myself, here are two dinosaurs I did tonight.
A pencil drawing of a homalocephale, a beaked, plant-eating dinosaur with a domed head, stubby little arms and a chonky body. A hastily drawn Tyrannosaurus Rex, done in pencil. Upright, very much on tiptoe and leaning forward, with a huge head, lots of teeth and teensy arms. A child has labeled the drawing and started coloring it red.

The perfect album from the year I turned 16 (I was on a break from them at the time and got into it later)
The cover of Beastie Boys’ album “Hello Nasty,” which features Ad-Rock, Mike D and MCA lying down in a partially opened sardine tin against a yellow, cell- or sun-like object with light yellow emanations over a black background.

If you think about it, the Titanic’s original trip was unfortunately “an immersive voyage” …
An email promotion for Fever Events’ “Titanic: An Immersive Voyage.” The art depicts the ship right next to a giant iceberg. The email text reads “Step aboard the Titanic and relive the legend like never before! Join us on a once-in-a-lifetime expedition to the depths of the Titanic, the most luxurious ship to ever set sail. From its creation to its dramatic final moments, you'll relive every aspect of its story in unparalleled immersive storytelling and state-of-the-art technology. Don’t miss this opportunity: get priority access to tickets by joining the waitlist!”

A screenshot of Graham Platner’s Wikipedia entry. It reads, “Platner was born on September 1, 1984, in Blue Hill, Maine. He was raised in Sullivan, a coastal town near Acadia National Park, and in Ellsworth. He is the elder of two sons born to restaurant owner Leslie Harlow and lawyer Bronson Platner. His grandfather was the modernist architect Warren Platner. Platner attended the private Hotchkiss School in Lakeville, Connecticut, and private John Bapst Memorial High School in Bangor, Maine.”

I don't know why it took me until now to think of this 🤣

Folks-
An AI-generated image of a uniformed white firefighter (who looks vaguely but justifiably anguished) dunking a basketball on a vaguely and unjustifiably happy uniformed white beat cop. It is all very ugly and bad. At least the cop hasn’t drawn his weapon.

We’re getting closer and closer…
A still from 30 Rock. Jack Donaghy (Alec Baldwin), a white man in a suit, is holding up a red and yellow pie chart titled “Programming Priorities Breakdown.” More than 80% of the chart, in red, is labeled “The Biggest Loser.” Most of the rest, in yellow, is labeled “Make It 1997 Again Through Science or Magic.” There is also a tiny green slice labeled “Everything Else.”

So cute! A week ago we caught a feral kitten in our back yard. We couldn’t keep her but she’s beautiful and sweet, and on her way to a good home.
A small dark gray kitten with copper colored eyes, wrapped in a light gray blanket.

A screenshot from Walter Hickey’s Numlock newsletter. The text reads, “…streaming platforms to block Pakistan-originated content on May 8, demand for the virtual private networks jumped 72 percent. Obtaining a reliable VPN, perhaps something like Private Internet Access (but as long as they don’t keep logs, most brands will do), can be important for anyone in a country undergoing rapidly disintegrating constitutional speech protections and ramped-up government censorship of media.” [article attribution] Quratulain Rehbar, Nikkei Asia

I made a bunch of frantic calls and eventually found a friend who is experienced in caring for animals. She agreed to take it, make sure it’s healthy, and find someone who can keep it. The cat is maybe 10 weeks old and a real love bug!
A photo of dark gray kitten with orange-y eyes, wrapped in a light gray towel after a bath. The same dark gray kitten with green-ish or orange-ish eyes, looking directly into the camera and being stroked as it is perched on a person’s shoulder.

This is unambiguously the most Der Stürmer-ish thing I’ve ever seen in a major American media outlet.
A screenshot of a New York Post skeet linking to one of their articles. The text reads “Charlie Kirk assassination latest shooting committed by trans people and advocates.”

That’s a good theory. It had “TRN” and some arrows stamped on it and I think some dipshit interpreted them as the side of a Pride flag, or decided they could pass it off as one. Totally useless people.
An LGBTQIA pride flag

So someone saw some arrows and assumed it was supposed to be a Pride flag? (Or pretended that was what they thought?)

A screenshot of a Facebook post by the official page of the New York Yankees. The text reads “Before tonight’s game we held a moment of silence in memoriam of Charlie Kirk. Kirk founded the youth activist group “Turning Point USA” and became a fixture on college campuses. Charlie Kirk, a husband and father of two children, was 31 years old.

A screenshot from The Simpsons. Marge has just been handcuffed by police officers Eddie and Lou. She says "I thought you said the law was powerless?" Chief Wiggum, who is smiling and eating an ice cream cone with three scoops, says "Powerless to help you, not punish you."

A screenshot from the 1960s “Batman” series. The Penguin (played by Burgess Meredith, wearing a purple top hat and smoking a cigarette in a long holder) looks shocked. Behind him are three men wearing black outfits with “Henchman” printed across them in white lettering. Another photo from the “Batman” series. Five men are gathered around a table, with two standing, two sitting, and one with his leg on a chair. They are wearing all black, with “G.O.O.N.” printed across their shirts. It stood for “Grand Order of Occidental Nightgawks,” but…

Which is how you get crap like this.
Democratic leaders (with former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi in the foreground) kneel while wearing Ghanaian kente cloth, as a protest of the murder of George Floyd). It is deeply out of touch and embarrassing.
