ELRIC AT THE FORGE OF FOREVER (2019)
Acrylic on Watercolor Board - 14 ½” x 6 ½”

When I tossed out the old container of paints used to do the cover painting for WORDS OF RADIANCE, it landed upside down in my wastebasket on a piece of paperboard I had been using as a palette for something else. 1/2

Elric stands on an outcrop of rock with skulls at his feet. He wears a black hooded cloak trimmed in gold and jeweled bracers. He cradles Stormbringer as the length of the runesword, glowing purple, extends well above his head. Below him water spills frothy onto the shore but as it stretches back, placid and glassy, it gives way to erupting vents of lava.

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.

Every ICE Agent is the worst person alive

Ashton Pittman @ashtonpittman.bsky.social · 15h

ICE left David, a 17-year-old boy, stranded on the side of Interstate 20 after pulling over his immigrant father, Hector, in Mississippi.

David began running in the scorching sun after the car and watched as it disappeared from sight—soon headed to a Louisiana ICE prison.

Here's their story.

ICE Stranded a 17-Year-Old on I-20 After Arresting His Father. The Mississippi Dad Now Faces Deportation.

A 17-year-old watched as ICE arrested his immigrant father, Hector, on I-20 in June. The family faces mounting legal fees and the risk of deportation.

the list of things that needs to be done to repair this country is extensive but high up on it is breaking the power of the tech lords

they are convinced they are untouchable feudal barons whose money allows them to dictate everyone else's life and they must be disabused of that notion

Dem Governors have more control over trade than they understand.

70% of international trade is running through the black dots. Most of the biggest sea ports, and most proximal to water.

choose from Therese's autumn fits

An artwork by Spindle of the character Therese, a trans elf woman who has cyan hair. The artwork showcases 4 different autumn outfits (from left to right):
1 - Therese's hair tid up to a circular "bun", while the rest of her hair is down to her butt. She's wearing a white turtleneck, a golden diamond-shaped necklace, and a long beige skirt with a dark leaf pattern. She's also wearing brown boots with a silver accent.

2 - Therese's hair tied up in a big bun. Wearing a white croptop under a long see-through beige cardigan. Red pants with brass-coloured accents, and red leggings that end just above the ankles, as well as red flats with swirly openings.

3 - Same hairstyle as 1 (except without the floating accessory in the hair loop), she's wearing a black scarf, a white and beige checkered shawl with a diamond shape on the front, and a black top underneath. (only the sleeves are visible). She's wearing a yellow skirt with white accents and buttons, and black open heels.

4 - Home fit, hair messy and free. Wearing a multi-coloured capelet/cardigan thing (idk what it is lmao), a black "night gown" with an opening in the front, and red pants with slits on the sides on the bottom. She's also wearing pie-shaped slippers (That Felt made for her!)

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

“Being a billionaire must be insane. You can buy new teeth, new skin. All your chairs cost 20,000 dollars and weigh 2,000 pounds. Your life is just a series of your own preferences. In terms of cognitive impairment it’s probably like being kicked in the head by a horse every day”

Dear Flowers that Bloom in Days of Yore (Ongoing)

Extremely strong start!! A series that is explicitly and heavily in modern dialogue with the history of GL literature in Japan, and also a really good story in its own right. This one's got it.
