yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket

Thomas Lecaque @tlecaque.bsky.social · 3h

Christopher Columbus was dragged back to Spain in chains by a crusading knight, convicted of tyranny and immeasurable cruelty, pardoned by Isabella but banned from returning to Hispaniola.

Fuck Columbus.

Yoda, YouTube quick sketch.

Back home in Maryland.

New York was a blast, but it feels nice to be back home, again.

Here’s a Yoda quick sketch for you to enjoy while I unpack and get comfortable.

Gosh I always forget how fun yet absolutely challenging it is to draw Samus.

But I wouldn't say I... dread it. Heh...

Mechanical pencil sketch of Samus from Metroid Prime. She is crouching while her beam emits vapor and energy.

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.

Dr. Damien P. Williams Wants A Better Sociotechnical Paradigm @wolvendamien.bsky.social · 16h

The villains in The Addams Family movies aren’t “Normal” people. They’re disingenuous ppl [hiding] the truth of themselves. …that that kind of behaviour gets equated w/ “normalcy” is [part] of the commentary. Tully AND Debbie would’ve been welcome, if they’d just been honest with & About themselves.

Dr. Damien P. Williams Wants A Better Sociotechnical Paradigm @wolvendamien.bsky.social · 16h

Back on tumblr I wrote a whole thing about both Tully and Debbie would've been welcomed into the family if they'd only be truly, honestly, and completely themselves.

The Seagull, the Dog and the Cockle: A Hidden Scene in the Bayeux Tapestry - Medievalists.net

One interpretation of a curious scene in the Bayeux Tapestry suggests a seagull using a dog to open a cockle—offering a rare glimpse of everyday life on the Norman beaches before the 1066 invasion.
