to add: it speaks also to how the aesthetics of fascism are always stolen or appropriated. the swastika is from euroasian religions like hinduism or buddhism. the fedora was originally women's fashion. gAI being popular among fascists makes sense when its entire function is to steal aesthetics

chira 🎋 @artofchira.bsky.social · 1d

idk if it's overly reductive but I'm convinced fascism is born out of creative envy. every far right character is a failed or obsolete writer/comedian/actor/artist/etc

which is so annoying since these are losers who made their rainbow drawing not being good enough for the fridge society's problem

I know its not more Hello Sunshine praise to fill the bar but it was also so well done that I ended up recommending Hello Sunshine to folks I met a my friend's birthday celebration this weekend cuz it was on my mind!

Im so sorry Keezy! I hope you get warm back inside. Side note, I read my copy of Sunflowers that you signed. It was a gorgeous and helped me understand a lot more about your experience. I loved seeing the art and how it grew into Hello Sunshine. Seriously great work that was very eye opening

finding yourself wanting to use "psychotic" to describe horrible people, governments, or events? can I present to you: the thesaurus

Sadistic, inhumane, cruel, barbaric, heartless, perverse, vile, so many more accurate and less offensive descriptors to use in this situation!

Taking pictures of what I've painted:

This pair of Dungeon Meshi anime figures probably come in at the 2nd and 3rd largest miniatures that I've painted. I really am proud of the look of the food as well as my metallic armor (with no metallic pigmented paint) and the texture I brought into it all

Painted anime figures of the dwarf Senshi and the human Laios from Delicious in Dungeon. Both with pots of food made of monsters and shiny armor

The side view of Laios and Senshi showing off the non optimal angles of the models but still cool imho

The backs of the dwarf and human one showing the color I painted into the dwarf Senshi's hair and the other of Laios' armor

I think you are exactly the type of wonderful person we need more of in the world rn. So you should take credit and be recognized for being the coolest Keezy around 👌 I know she appreciated it and it'll have good ripples going forward
