We are about to enter an era of extreme and dangerous culture war in the United States. How do we protect our communities and work toward a cultural ceasefire? In this piece I wrote a couple months ago, I offer one possible path. wapo.st/40q1BDn
Opinion | Libraries can help end the culture wars. That’s why they’re under fire.
Nothing threatens authoritarianism like a free, quiet place to absorb a full range of information.

The Hunter / The Warlock / The Battle / The Aftermath
[ #art ]
A man hunting in the snow beside a bear familiar. A warlock nervously walking through the snow at night with his crow familiar. The bear and hunter dressed as a bear hide in the back. A battle between a hunter and warlock. The aftermath of a battle. The hunter is exhausted and the warlock injured. But the warlock looks back with pity

Not sure if it's just me or if other artists feel this way too, but for those who work in a professional art field, do you also have to fight to make art on your personal time? I spend all day being creative and solving problems, and then I get home and can't work up the energy to draw or create.

Gosh, this is an oldie. But I've been on a #stardewvalley kick lately. I should really get back to illustrating the rest of Shane's heart events. I love my depressed chicken man.

Just gonna keep posting old art of my #dndcharacter. This is Faylinn, my Druid/Cleric. Great build, honestly. She could tank, damage, heal, and crowd control.

From that time I attempted to draw a #tarot card. Was supposed to be The Hermit ended up looking more like The Empress or The High Priestess. Ah well, still glad I pushed myself to experiment with different styles.

In the usual vein of me posting old commissions, here is a personal #art piece of my old #dndcharacter Enki. A Knowledge Cleric. This was one of the first highly detailed pieces I ever did. Still pretty proud of it, honestly.

Uplifting diverse opinions is vital, but let's be clear: fascists can't be reasoned with. They thrive on violence and fear—and they don't deserve safety or normalization. The only response to a fascist? Punching a fascist.
