Similar to my post about "liberation means even for that annoying guy you hate" - weird art includes art you personally don't get, don't like, wouldn't spend money on, find unsettling. Games you wouldn't play. Books you wouldn't read. Decommercialise your preconceptions of what art deserves to exist

Everyone saying "make weird art!" you better fucking mean it. There better not be an unspoken "but not too weird" tacked on at the end.

First day at work
#Trigun

Meryl, fists on her hips and chin high, is gently scolding a bashful Milly, who’s wearing a tight blazer, shirt ready to pop out, pencil skirt and pointy high heels.
“ “Milly”, that’s right?”
“Yes Ma’am!”
“You know we’re on the field and not the office, right?”
“Yes Ma’am!”
“And you like wearing those heels?”
“No Ma’am!”
“Then tomorrow, wear clothes you’re comfortable in, ok?”
“Yes Ma’am!”
“And please, call me Meryl!”
“Yes Ma’am!”

Milly in a looser white shirt and red tie, smiling confidently with her stun-gun on her shoulder. One of her sleeves is rolled up to reveal a muscular forearm.

I found a 19th century Cat Villain!

A huge chonk of a fluffy cat sitting on a table near an open fire. The cat is cream and grey and appears to be shaped like a barrel in a fur coat. They are scowling fiercely with their moustache and bewhiskered ears apparently flowing back into the cold wind. There's a definite vibe that this villainous cat twirls their moustache as they evict orphans into the aforementioned blizzard and think Scrooge was an easy-going lightweight. They are magnificent.

Yeah, I think Toei and Bandai know exactly what it is they're cooking with Wolvermon.

Wolvermon, from the anime Digimon: Beatbreak, performing an attack titled "Tomboy Blaze"

Wolvermon with her eyes half-lidded and a sly smirk on her face as she says "So, who wants to burn next?"

This week in 1988: 1,000+ ACT UP demonstrators shut down the FDA headquarters, demanding (and eventually winning) action on developing HIV/AIDS treatments. ACT UP's militant and creative actions always included powerful visual artwork, and paved the way for movements in the decades to come.

A photograph from the 1988 ACT UP demonstration outside the FDA. Many people are participating in a die-in on the front steps, holding mock tombstones with messages like "RIP - killed by the FDA" and "Dead from lack of drugs." A line of police officers (some with classic 80s mustaches) wearing riot helmets stands between them and the building; one cop wearing white gloves is walking through the demonstrators. Affixed to the 2nd story windows of the building is a series of posters and a large blank banner reading Silence = Death.

My friend Sascha is a professional musician and he's lost a viola bow on the way to Heathrow. Please signal boost to help him get it back.

Lost viola bow on the way from Honor Oak Station to Heathrow Terminal 2. The bow slid from its bow case somewhere along the way, possibly on the train. TFL contacted already.
It weighs 68.2 grams and has got a stamped DODD next to the frog. If any info on this, please pm me.

I think more dogs should be deified. I have no interest in Catholicism but the folk saint Guinefort always meant something to me considering shit I dealt with as a kid WRT being believed to be innocent of wrongdoing

Rainbow, maid of clay @golemgirlgoop.bsky.social · 1d

of course I still grew up in a racist society and am to this day working on unlearning shit (because that is the labor of a lifetime, and a necessary one) so I don't presume my own understanding of the problems was perfect

having started out watching/reading Ranma as the teenage daughter of an immigrant for whom English was a _fifth_ language, I definitely had some barriers to enjoying all the 'hulkspeak' translations

wow, there's really going to be a generation of English-speaking Ranma fans who never had to deal with the racist old translations of Shampoo's speech
