Found when sorting an old drive. I still, very occasionally, say 'not many badgers in the House of Lords' and this is why:
Letter to the Guardian. The protection of badgers has a long pedigree (Report, 29 August). Arthur Gore, known as "Boofy", the eighth Earl of Arran, was a fanatical defender of them. He was also a tireless campaigner for the rights of homosexuals. In 1967 he managed to push through a law in the Lords that decriminalised homosexuality but failed to pass a bill to outlaw the cruel hunting of badgers. When asked why he had not received enough support for his badger bill, he replied: "Not many badgers in the House of Lords." Tony Lywood Keswick, Cumbria

Skips have that perfect combination of plenty of flavour AND a meaty texture.

Okay I have one more.
A POV shot of a pair of feet standing on the shore of a lake. On the water's surface: a night-time reflection of mountains and a starry sky.

I always had a soft spot for characters that ended up as a footnote.
Here is Tindómiel daughter of Elros. Who's name means "Morningstar"
Do you think Elrond named his daughter "Eveningstar" to remember that part of family that went beyond his reach?

Moth Melian.
Do you people headcanon her as a maia of Yavanna, Vána, or Estë? Or all or two of them? Sometimes she is said to be of Yavanna, who she is compared to, other times Vána and Estë.

#tolkien #silmarillion #jrrtolkien #melian #maiar #tolkienart #silmart #tolkienfanart #silmfanart #fantasy
Melian has four arms and long dark hair that is braided in two braids, one follows down her front, the other her back. She has pale grey skin with a pink tint on her hands and purple on her forehead. She is wearing a light green dress with long open sleeves and slight floral embroidery, and darker, tight sleeves under that. Hooves can be seen just where the dress ends at her feet. She is wearing a seethroguth shawl shaped like wings. From her back, lunar moth wings are folded downwards. She is holding flowers in her right upper arm.

if you're one person making a comic by yourself, don't treat yourself like you should function on the same level as comics that have multiple people working on them. your backgrounds can be squiggles and colors.

allow yourself room to be abstract with details and give yourself some grace

"small business" is such a funny term bc in it you have like a bunch of little gremlin artists fighting over a dollar and then also a guy who owns every tire store in a tri-city area and they are both like "im a small business"

Was in the mood to make a dungeon synth album cover.
First person view of Frodo Baggins wielding a sword. He is in a barrow and his three unconscious Hobbit friends are superimposed over the background, dressed in white with a sword laid over their necks. An arm of a wight is visible on the right, as is Tom Bombadil's boot. The writing reads "Mathom - Fog on the Barrow-downs".

i know WHY this is but that just makes it even more of a kick in the pants lmao
screenshot of a tumblr post from user “wildmansters” The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist. But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building. I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

There was only one bed trope, but we skip straight to the reality scenario.

A digital sketch of Conan and Elric. They're sharing a bed, with Conan taking over half of it, with his limbs outstretched. Elric is curled up under the blankets, sobbing.
