This is brilliant. I'm so grateful for this testimony. I've transcribed it to use in letters I'm writing. Sharing the full transcription here (see alt text to copy/paste it):
"I'd like to share a story from a local paper in Coldwater, Michigan dated to the 9th of April, 1945. It tells how the US Army, under General Patton--the US 3rd Army--came onto what you might call a detention center just outside the village of Ohrdruf, Germany. The US Army brought the leading citizens of Ohrdruf to tour the facility, which turned out to be part of the Buchenwald network of concentration camps. A US Army colonel told the German civilians who viewed the scenes, without muttering a word, that they were to blame. One of the Germans replied that what happened in the camp was (quote) 'done by a few people, and you cannot blame us all.' And the American, who could have been any one of our grandfathers, said, 'this was done by those that the German people chose to lead them, and all are responsible.' The morning after the tour, the Mayor of Ohrdruf killed himself. And maybe he did not know the full extent of the outrages that were committed in his community, but he knew enough. And we don't know exactly how ICE will use this warehouse. But we know enough. I ask you to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf might have thought before he died. Maybe he felt like a victim. He might have thought, 'how is this my fault? I have no jurisdiction over this.' Maybe he would have said, 'this site was not subject to local zoning, what could I do?' But I think, when he reflected on the suffering that occurred at this camp, just outside of town, that those words would have sounded hollow even to him. Because in his heart he knew--as we do--that we are all responsible for what happens in our community. I urge the council to take action to stop, or stall, or at the barest minimum to think creatively about how to exercise oversight over this proposed ICE facility. Thank you."

4 panel comic. I'm holding a piece of paper and I happily skip to a bsky user, saying, "hi, fellow artist! I drew a picture of your OCs!" and the user says "oh wow! thanks!" as soon as they touch the paper, the panel goes dark and fiery, and i open my eye to show a sinister red glow, saying, "THE PACT IS SEALED." The bsky user recoils in fear while i stare at them with flames in my eye, saying, "WE ARE NOW...... PROFESSIONAL ACQUAINTANCES"

Hey friends, my favorite content creator is fundraising for the national immigration law center. They're organizing an event called creators against 🧊

completely forgot to post her updated character sheet oops lmao
#KingsRequiem #KRart #ocsky #refsheet #Zarina
Character model sheet. Depicted is a woman with warm brown skin and short red hair swept to the side. There are four drawings of her, each showing different layers of clothes. Starting from the left, the first model shows her wearing a black and white hooded cloak over some armor. Labels show that she is 5ft 8in in comparison to her greataxe which is 5ft 4in. Her greataxe is designed to mimic a dragon, where the blade is shaped like a dragon's wing. The second model shows the same woman without the cloak, revealing plated shoulder pads, chest armor, black pants, arm guards, and armored boots. The third model shows the layer underneath all of the armor, consisting of short sleeved chainmail, and a pair of red socks peeking from under the black pants. The last model shows her final layer underneath, which is a two-piece set of brown undergarments. The top piece has long sleeves that form fingerless gloves at the ends, and the bottom piece is a set of tight pants that partially wrap around the feet at the end. This model shows off her hourglass body shape with broad shoulders and wide hips to complement a narrow waist. The sheet is decorated with imagery of dragons.

we invented pornographic art tens of thousands of years before written language.

we invented the condom before steel.

Bread is older than war. Beer is older than borders.

We're better at making good things than bad. We've had more practice.

Post a mage!
Will happily take an oppurtunity to repost my war mage
Coloured digital drawing of a sylph warmage with smoke-like hair. They are clad in armour and covered in different odd knick knacks and weaponry. Above them is a small drawing depicting them in profile in a beaklike helmet. To the left is a plaque with the text "War Mage To study the arcane is to devote oneself to the pursuit of power. As among the diverse set of magical traditions that exist it is the one that cannot heal the mind, soothe the soul or restore the body. Instead it steals the destructive powers of the elements, the pure awe of divine might, and untold secrets of the occult. Combining these spoils into a tradition of magic that demands respect and punishes any who would deny its self-acclaimed importance. Thus, those who enact the arcane are vain, prideful and powerhungry. Practicing a craft of pure power, control and ensorcellment. Still, while these may be lowly pursuits the power of the arcane is shackled and grounded by human desire and reasoning. But, place such a practitioner amongst the horrors of war, and not in the vain position of a commander, nor in the comfort of a ritualist but in the boots of a common soldier. Then watch their vanity wash away by a life in trenches, packed against dirt and corpses like a dead man in a coffin. Watch their shield of pride crumble as their spellwards against blades and arrows do nothing against the attrition of conflict. Watch their hunger for power die as their destructive spells do nothing against the arrows and blades that fell their comrades in droves. Then gaze upon the work of a practitioner void of the purpose that granted them power. Gaze upon the violence only humans can wrack but devoid of the love and passion, of the resentment and hate, of the righteous fury and deserved vengeance, of the vicious greed and the hunger for power that should guide it. Gaze upon the insatiable hunger of a beast that cannot be fed. It is an abomination. It is a war mage."

MOHO SLAPS I RECOMMEND IT
scratchyderose.bsky.social Chris DeRose @scratchyderose.bsky.social · 1d
If anyone else wants an Adobe Animate alternative, I can’t recommend Moho enough. It’s affordable, it’s efficient, it’s been used in feature films from Cartoon Saloon like Wolfwalkers, and the best part…NO Ai whatsoever.

#art #pinup #chandelle
A picture of Chandelle, a 20-something white tomboy with short black hair and amber eyes. She is holding a couple of fingers in her mouth to stop them from bleeding while sheathing a bowie knife on her belt with her other hand. Her shirt is open, and there are streaks of blood across her chest on her ouija board tattoo. She is wearing a grey vest and trousers over a white button up shirt with the sleeves rolled up past her elbows, a pair of tawny leather gloves, one of which is tucked into her gun belt which is holding a Colt revolver with antler grips in a holster as well as many cartridges for it. The bowie knife is on another belt and has a matching grip. Her vest is double breasted with large metal buttons featuring a fleur de lys symbol. It has red satin back that matches her undone necktie. A woman's pocket watch is seen dangling through its chain which is passing through a couple of button holes at waist level. Her pants have a faint plaid pattern. Her tits are there.
