Nonbinary illustrator in nyc - I love colors, horror, trying to find beauty in the strange & unsettling and vice versa 💖

www.skullingway.com

Illustration of a ghostly white arm covered in flowers, butterflies, candy, peppers and sparkles. Unclear if these things are growing out of it or being pushed in

Illustration of the movie the substance. Sue & Elizabeth are naked, facing away & holding hands. Surrounding them are sparkles, eyes, flesh, teeth? Beer, a vial of green stuff, eggs, and strange hand, stars, a tv with a close up of sues lips, and they are sharing a blood transfusion

Illustration of the movie I saw the tv glow. The two main characters are floating on opposite sides of each other on the image, separated by fog, an ice cream truck and the villain ‘mister melancholy’ in a 90’s tv set. There’s two black coffins on each side of the tv

Illustration is the cover for the game ‘the time we have’. The top is a strange cluster of flower growths that also look like fungi. There’s a for separating down the middle with two boys sitting on either side. The one on the left is glowing and has similar growths on him. The one on the right is holding a flashlight

It feels crazy to say thank you to a politician for even acknowledging we exist, let alone expressing concrete goals to help us. But. Thank you Big Z

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

One thing I love about cons is there will always be someone doing a cute pyramid head cosplay. This time I saw one with a bunch of pink flowers glued on the helmet

Tapling: Queer Zines 🏳️‍🌈 @taplingzines.bsky.social · 1d

Only one week left! We've already received a lot of wonderful applications, but we're still eager to see what else you all have to show us!

We've Always Been Here is a queer historical zine, aiming to show that LGBTQ+ people have always existed, and always will.

Apply:

Not looking forward to the game play, but who has ever said they did about a silent hill game

Ripley 👽💖 @skullingway.bsky.social · 22h

Everything I hear ppl like about about silent hill f sounds like what I’ve always thought, which is that sh needed more protagonists who aren’t Cis Man With Issue and I’m excited to play it when I get a chance (probably in 5 years idk)

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.
