Some Algy design stuff - he was found in the woods wrapped in a blanket embroidered with stars, which he has now adapted into his cape. Idea being that when he goes all cosmic-horror (spoilers), his armour can fall away with the cape wrapping around him in a smoky galactic haze

The Star
Even now, I will hold hope
#fae #fairy #art

A horned blue fairy sits on the rocks in a cove, surrounded by streams of water. She is hunched protectively over daffodils and through tears, looks up with intense defiance. A bright 8-point star bursts from her chest. Below her, a cup has fallen into the water. Behind, a draining up-turned vase, with another vase and chalice upright.

I think I could accept the Bond team not going with Radiohead's Spectre for the movie theme if Sam Smith's replacement wasn't so fucking dreadful

Just a reminder that many christofascists believe that pregnant women should suffer as much as possible during pregnancy to 'atone for the original sin" and "strengthen the bond with their child"

Surely just a coincidence that Trump now wants to ban the safest pain killer for pregnant women

I think it's based on the idea that Eve sinned 'more' so was made to suffer during pregnancy, but it's not like Christianity makes much sense

Oh yes fair point!

And I think the process of creating art causes us to value things differently, possibly more on a technical/accomplishment basis

Omg I feel you, I do wonder if artists have different priorities than your average art-enjoyer

Not saying they should be (or shouldn't be), not really expressing an opinion, just making sure I don't fall foul of the rules myself if I can avoid it

Yeah quite a lot of classical art depictions of rape out there

Whether they'd be considered sexual is another thing i suppose, depends what the mods do

🦑Humansquid Normaltrousers🦑 @squiddrza.bsky.social · 19d

Oh so explicit depictions of rape and other sexual assault generally?

Trump just designated “Antifa” as a terrorist organization, on par with ISIS and Al Qaeda. As a reminder, “antifa” is short for “antifascist”.

They will use this lie to surveil, imprison, and kill Americans on the left.

This may be our Reichstag Fire moment. Wake up.

Just asked my German gf if she knew who Jeremy Corbyn was, and she said -

"oh yeah he's that chubby unfunny guy that sings in cars with celebrities"

"....no babe, that's James Corden"
