Owl.

- 8x10, ink, coloured pencils, acrylic ink, inktense pencil, on tan stock.
A drawing of a stylized owl, who looks like he'd rather you NOT hang about. There are fall leaves, pumpkins, a dying picket fence and some spooky trees in the moonlit background.

After much pressure from the peanut gallery I have agreed to draw an owl, in a slightly Hallowe'en scene.

A Boo Who, if you will.

Coloured pencil to follow black ink.
A WIP ink drawing of an owl against a night sky, in a fall/somewhat spoopy background.

Drood this during my stream a while ago.
A portrait of a dragon. There's a diagonal bar across the image. Everything inside the bar is fully rendered in burgundy/blue/green while everything outside the bar is just an ink outline.

It may be my new meds talking, but I keep asking myself what would happen if you asked an AI program to generate itself an ass and shove itself up it?

We will have to agree to disagree.

Time will prove who's right.

For the sake of everyone in the US, I hope Im wrong.

It's the party that qualifies as a terrorists.

If they BELONG to a party that qualifies? legally they are.

It's like saying there were good people who belonged to the WW2 Nazi party. "Just following orders" didn't work at Nuremberg.

Every Reb voter isn't a terrorist but they aided and abetted.

From www.fbi.gov/investigate/...

Domestic terrorism: Violent, criminal acts committed by individuals and/or groups to further ideological goals stemming from domestic influences, such as those of a political, religious, social, racial, or environmental nature

They are by their own rules.

I don't think you get my meaning.

This shutdown is to weed out anyone disloyal to Trump.

Money, high prices, fear of loosing housing...
Those take fence sitters and force them to choose. Many will choose money.

It will get worse.
MAGA are just dillusional people.
Republicans are terrorists.

The latest stats estimate that Canadian cross-border visits to the US is down approx 35%.

That's a low-ball loss estimate of about 35 billion dollars.

This is good but we can do better. 50% at LEAST.

Fun thought:
- have baby in the US
- 3 to 5 years later kid diagnosed with autism
- can you PROVE you never took tylenol during your pregnancy?!?
- state accuses you of "causing harm to a fetus"
- go to jail and become slave to clothing manufacturer

- kid goes on to get PhD/job/family/is happy

Guess what else tylenol is recommended for?

PERIOD CRAMPS!

But any lady who has a period COULD get pregnant...so, in Dumpys own words, " tough it out"

Thanks to him, I need 2 tylenol now.

Prediction for getting autism support services in the US in 10 months:

Want a diagnosis? Take leucovorin first.

No change? You never were autistic.

We see a change, however small, then you're cured. You don't need support.

It's like dunking a suspected witch. No matter the outcome, she looses.

Also: Dumpy and his crew say Tylenol could make your kid autistic "when they're little".

But chemotherapy-recovery-levels of folic acid will fix it.

And your kid could die from a fever caused by a vaccine.

Which could be solved by Tylenol.

Dumpy just said that hepatitis B is sexually transmitted, so you don't have to give a kid a shot until they're 12.

Guess he knows a lot of sexually active 12 year olds ...

US Ladies: buy your Tylenol NOW.

10 bucks says it will soon be illegal in the US for a woman "of childbearing age" to take it because they could potentially pregnan.
