its bizarre seeing him being "in on the joke" about that all the way back in 2024...genuinely yikes, if you look he's only used the word "Tactical" 3 times and only one of them isn't using it as a "joke".

me here like... why are (we all know why) Tesla drivers the chaotic evil of the Automotive world... a few weeks ago, ambulance tearing down the street at rush hour lights ablaze, everyone pulls over EXCEPT a Tesla that just turned onto the street, they floored it behind them and ran 2-3 red lights

A line of cars in the image foreground that had pulled to the side when an Ambulance came tearing down the street at Rush Hour with lights and sirens on, an opportunistic fucker in a white Tesla Model Y immediately cut in behind them and tailgated them all the way out of sight, running at least two red lights and cutting in front of 40-70 cars.

that's understandable, I've been just ick at the state of the world recently, though I've found I've felt better after walking around with my camera and just taking pictures of the beauty around us.

the way you draw thighs is always such a treat to see, looove how *powerful* they look from the graceful curve down here, love when thigh muscles have that "hanging" look like the muscles under the skin aren't content to stay close to the femur and instead just go hang out in their own muscly way.

a screencap of Crux's (Cruxbatface) art to highlight the gorgeous detail of Catra's thighs in their work, the leg is positioned in a really well-drawn balanced squat with her leg twisted out slightly to widen her balance. her black thigh-high really emphasizes the heavy muscular curve from the side to underneath her leg.
(plus the crop of the image gives a cheeky view of her gorgeously sexy abs, because Crux just draws them excellently too)

Edelweiss Airbus A350-900 landing in the same awful weather that the C-17 did, but right before the rain visible as a wall of grey in the background made landfall. Happy that in the five months I've spent planespotting it feels like I got some iconic shots!

A very striking red and white Airbus A350-900 from Edelweiss arriving on a sopping wet July day. its red cockpit section standing out against the dull greens and greys of the background and foreground. a big cloud of smoke is behind the plane from the fairly heavy impact of its landing.

just staring at this... always adore when you draw/sculp nudity for the way it just showcases all the incredible detail you put into the lil creases of muscles and skin. (especially love the shapes of her hips, I just adore how the muscles underneath look sooo pretty how they influence the skin)

also like your old Adora art, I just adooore the way you drew her skin and how especially at the edge of pectoral and shoulder how it stretches and sags from how her torso's weight is being held up by her shoulders! (also I just love how you drew her arms too, her biceps look so prettyyy)

This reminds me of the disparity in @wikipedia.org articles and the voices they give entire quotes to vs the ones they attribute vague sentiments to.... like treating extreme-right grifters Alex Jones and Ted Nugent as just your normie "Conservative commentators" and given full quotes...1/2

2 screencapped paragraphs of a Wikipedia article on the 2014 attack on the US naval yard in Washington DC. showcasing the oddly one-sided coverage as rightwing/far right groups are given full quotes without any mention of their leanings, while gun control groups are reduced to vague sentiments. full quote screencap

"The shooting sparked a discussion on the adequacy of security at U.S. military facilities. On September 18, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel ordered a review of security procedures at military facilities around the world. Foreign Policy magazine reported that virtually anyone with a Common Access Card (C.A.C.), provided to government contractors, civilian Defense Departmentemployees, and soldiers, can enter many military facilities "without being patted down or made to go through a metal detector". The shooter had a Secret-level security clearance and a C.A.C. allowing him to enter the Navy Yard. Conservative commentators including Alex Jones, Ted Nugent, and others suggested that "gun-free zones" on military bases were to blame for the massacre. On NBC's Meet the Press, National Rifle Association of America leader Wayne LaPierre said, "when the good guys with guns got there, it stopped." In the libertarian Reason magazine, J.D. Tuccille said that on domestic U.S. military bases, most soldiers are prohibited from carrying guns, and that this made the base more vulnerable to an attack.[

On September 17, gun control activists and relatives of victims of shootings that occurred at Sandy Hook Elementary School; Aurora, Colorado; and the Wisconsin Sikh temple shooting, came to Washington to protest for stricter gun control. The activists said they hoped that the Navy Yard attack's proximity to Capitol Hill would motivate lawmakers to act to impose stricter background checks and close the gun show loophole.
