Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest.

There’s been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day.

What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that we’re actually not that afraid.

It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as “war-torn,” it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and it’s, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.

Be safe, and don't you dare go hollow.

4 panel comic, une bunny and a witch cat are sitting around the fire, preparing dinner.
Dialogue goes :
"So, you're a Brush bearer, an Artist"
"Are you still painting?"
"I am"
"Hah! No way ! with the world on the verge of collapse and hoe fading day by day, you think art still matters?"
"Now more than ever..."

I hate AI with a passion.
It’s a culmination of so much that is wrong with the world. A theft-machine that puts profit and product over people.
It turns out… I can hate it more.

It's very weird thinking about slick government thrillers full of competent characters and cutting-edge technology still being made during a time when technology increasingly sucks shit and the government is barely being held together with duct tape

I'm a ride or die Kathryn Bigelow stan, but I'm not sure I've got the stomach for a straight-faced reboot of Whoops Apocalypse! where a pack of ineffectual dipshits impotently flap around as Chicago gets nuked by who-knows? for no reason. #FilmSky #MovieSky

A House of Dynamite review – Kathryn Bigelow’s nuclear endgame thriller is a terrifying, white-knuckle comeback

Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson and Tracy Letts star in this immaculately constructed nightmare procedural that ticks down the minutes from an atomic bomb’s launch to its detonation

Makes me think of some birdwatching advice I once got: If it's a bird? It's a crow. If it's a beak with a bird attached? It's a raven.

Two things can be true at once:
1). Payment processors bear more responsibility for this than the sites they're pressuring
2). Itch's complete radio silence on this is grotesquely inadequate and irresponsible, and there is no amount of smol-beaning that papers that over

As of this moment, the only statement itch has issued regarding delisting and purging content as well as denying creators the ability to get payouts that as little as 12 hours ago were perfectly within site policy is Leaf Corcoran (the site creator) posting a salute emoji in a discord server

It's my birthday, which is the one day of the year I get to be selfish. The nicest thing you could do is check out my art, maybe even leave a reply. I'm firmly in old man territory now but I'll keep doing art as long as I'm allowed.
