I'd add that if whatever you're drawing doesn't look exact, it's ok! Sometimes you may need to flip it upside down & fool your brain from filling in details your eyes may fixate on. Whatever works for you!

I periodically see people worrying over using references to draw. USE THEM! I use photos, take them myself when I can, and go scrounging around if I have something handy. Like last night, I started thinking about looking up owl talons, then remembered I have a pendant cast from an actual owl talon.

Can't help but think of Fort Pitt, PA. British gave Shawnee blankets in 1763. We're not fixing this in a few election cycles.

Same issue to overcome. Will we as people grow apathetic, or take responsibility; even if it wasn't our doing?

We need Christians to step up now and oppose the Christian Nationalists, and do so in the name of their Christ.

But do not fight them with the words of "they are not true Christians!"; do not fight them with gotchas of God or Gospel.

Fight them with sincerity proved by action and suffering.

Growing up in evangelical churches in West Texas, it was taken as a given that the End Times would involve agents of the federal government hunting and rounding up Christians, brutalizing them, and humiliating them publicly before tossing them into concentration camps, or elsewise disappearing them.

I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that all these data centers are going into communities that have been historically targeted for exploitation and have the least amount of civic power wielded by the people living there.

The "kill, steal, and destroy" is a nod to the Christian Nationalists. These groups are being declared in league with the devil.

Robert Downen @robertdownen.bsky.social · 1d

Citing the “martyrdom” of Charlie Kirk, Texas AG Ken Paxton says his office is pursuing sweeping undercover investigations into “leftist” groups. “To those demented souls who seek to kill, steal, and destroy our country, know this: you cannot hide, you cannot escape, and justice is coming."

"Leftist political terrorism is a clear and present danger. Corrupted ideologies like transgenderism and Antifa are a cancer on our culture and have unleashed their deranged and drugged-up foot soldiers on the American people," said Attorney General Paxton. "The martyrdom of Charlie Kirk marks a turning point in America.
There can be no compromise with those who want us dead. To that end, I have directed my office to continue its efforts to identify, investigate, and infiltrate these leftist terror cells. To those demented souls who seek to kill, steal, and destroy our country, know this: you cannot hide, you cannot escape, and justice is coming."
The radical Left has incubated an environment where political violence is not only justified but celebrated and praised. In July, nearly two dozen armed leftists connected to various Texas-based Antifa-like groups ambushed an Immigration and Customs Enforcement ("ICE") facility in Alvarado, Texas. On September 10, 2025, a leftist assassin connected to the radical transgender movement murdered Charlie Kirk because of Kirk's bold support for truth, love of country, and unshakable faith. Two weeks later, another deranged leftist opened fire at an ICE facility in Dallas.
President Donald Trump has officially designated Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization and instructed his administration to "utilize all applicable authorities to investigate, disrupt, and dismantle any and all illegal operations — especially those involving terrorist actions — conducted by Antifa." Building on President Trump's bold actions, Attorney General Paxton has instructed his office to initiate sweeping investigations into radical leftist organizations engaged in or providing support to those performing political violence.
