Wanderer of foggy towns, haunted halls and pixelated galleries, where paintings whisper secrets and mind shadows linger like memories we can’t forget. If it’s eerie, atmospheric and vaguely cursed, I probably called it beautiful.

Your art history post for today: by Rigoberto A. González (born 1973), Refugees Crossing the Border Wall into South Texas (The Flight Into Egypt), 2020, oil on linen, private collection. #painting #oilpainting #immigration #Refugees #Christmas
From The National Portrait Gallery, Washington, DC: “Despite the ever-present news stories about the Mexico-U.S. border, as Rigoberto Gonzalez contends, the region itself remains nebulous. It feels like a space that is transnational, one that is both inclusive and exclusionary. This painting monumentalizes the very act of crossing this threshold with its allusions to seventeenth-century Baroque art. Each figure emerges out of darkness, light accentuating their worried expressions. Their arms and hands touch, forming an almost continuous line from mother to older child, connecting the group. The mother holds a rosary while carrying a diaper-clad child and tenuously grips the edge of a ladder that leans against the looming steel fence. And just below this ladder, at the bottom left, a medical mask and a newspaper provide temporal specificity to this often repeated, perilous scene.”

The White House has launched a webpage to report "media bias" tips. It would be a pity if it were flooded with tips about every show on Fox News.

The Trumpetfish is such a ridiculous looking creature, they always make me smile. They are masters of color change as well, shading from brown, reddish, orange, and bright yellow. They often drift head-down like this, especially when hanging out in clumps of soft coral. 🦑 #scuba #diving #oceans

Thanksgiving in America by Ron Cobb, 1967
Political cartoon by artist Ron Cobb, created in 1967. It offers a critical perspective on the American Thanksgiving holiday by contrasting a contemporary family dinner with the historical reality of Native American genocide. The top panel depicts a typical American family enjoying a Thanksgiving feast. The bottom panel, located directly beneath the floorboards, reveals a mass of skeletons and skulls, including some adorned with traditional Native American headpieces. The cartoon highlights the myth versus the reality of the holiday's origins, which often obscures the violent history and displacement of Indigenous peoples.

Excited for the Neuromancer adaptation! It's the cornerstone of cyberpunk. As Gibson said, "The future is already here—it's just not very evenly distributed." 🪐📚 What are your favorite cyberpunk elements? #Neurom

Apple TV's upcoming adaptation of Neuromancer

Based on the 1984 novel by William Gibson, Neuromancer is a sci-fi epic on par with Dune and The Expanse. The story blends elements of cyberpunk and science fiction.

In Slavic lore, villagers left bread and milk at forest shrines so the Leshy would not steal their children. Every offering was a bargaining chip with terror. #WyrdWednesday

New fossils from Ethiopia reveal that Australopithecus deyiremeda lived beside Lucy’s species while walking, climbing, and eating in different ways. Early hominin evolution was a branching landscape, not a single path. #Paleoanthropology #HumanOrigins #Fossils #Evolution

Irish selkies answered riddles only when in human form. Fail, and they returned to the sea. For wave-tossed storytelling, try Tidal Blades. #FolkyFriday
