"political art doesn't do anything" is such a sophistic, navel-gazing take that makes me think you've never witnessed a real protest.

Woke up in the middle of the night anxious abt climate change. We have had Days of 1.5 C already. What a wretched truth. There’s so much going unnoticed.

Art majors need a required art history course from BEFORE “modernism and after” understanding the reformation & counterreformation, neoclassicism vs romanticism are incredibly useful in terms of understanding cultural swings

Almost done watching HBO's Hacks and I love the way climate is brought into multiple episodes, and that Ava changes Deborah's mind about the Climate Crisis. We need more stories that aren't explicitly about climate that acknowledge our reality like this.

Btw you can't hate visual AI "art" but then turn around and consume AI voice over videos, books and music. That's art too. Don't let it be excusable because it's not your work that's being attacked in the moment.

The fertility rate going down is good because it means fewer teens are having kids, people are thinking hard about how many kids they can actually afford, and fewer women who don't want kids aren't being forced to have them.

This work is made by the renowned Ukrainian artist Ivan Marchuk, who invented the unique painting style called "plyontanism" (from the Ukrainian word plyontaty, meaning "to braid"). This technique consists of hundreds of fine, intertwined lines that create depth and an almost textile-like texture.

The painting "Night in the Steppe" shows a vast plain under a bright full moon, the light being distributed over the landscape and the water in an almost magical way.

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads:

The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.

And our governments are very much the same...

- Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

ICYMI! Reading 2025 fiction? Try the short story "Brooklyn Beijing" by Hannah Yang @hannahyangwrites.bsky.social! You can read it here! buff.ly/vmg76Do

The cover for Uncanny Magazine Issue 66, “Listen To Me And I'll Tell You A Story" by Ejiwa "Edge" Ebenebe: In the depths of the sea a little girl sits on what looks to be a giant pink/green octopus tentacle. Several other tentacles extend in the background, curling in the depths. Towards the front and surrounding the little girl is a school of pink fish, some of them stop to listen as she holds one finger up. She looks like she is about to start telling a story. On the lower right corner, another school of fish is making its way over the tentacles, towards the edge of the cover. The quote reads: "When Beijing appeared on the other side of the East River, you turned off your phone. Your friends had hoped for Paris, or Rome, or Santorini, so in the soft fog of their collective disappointment you knew you would be afraid to voice how you really felt..."

This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.
