Sometimes I draw things. Mostly I just think about drawing things. "Essentially normal", "Unexpectedly rugged." ORIGINAL CHARACTER DO NOT STEAL

There's been a thing at the back of my mind about how AI content vibes with industrialised TV, stations cranking out factory-stamped shows to fill airtime to sell advertising rather than to Make Good Art. Not that they're directly comparable apart from the mindset behind the execs at the top...

The digital photography doesn't quite capture the difference in colour here. SS86 (non-MTMTE) Rod isn't quite the magenta of the movie, but he's definitely a shade closer towards it than MPG-20's bold red, and the shins are slightly more mauve. Overall MPG-20 looks kinda like Rodimus Prime

in my talk today, as an example of the strange things you can do in comics given their sequential but also spatial/simultaneous nature, I included this gonzo panel from 1950s Batman, which I just love in all its weirdness! Yes, I have more intentionally clever examples, but something about this...
part of a page from a batman comic. In one panel, batman leaps from off panel onto a diving board, the motion lines of his rebound travel across to another panel, where we see him finish his leap and crash into the crooks to save the day

T-Rex: Man, I had SUCH PLANS for my midlife crisis too. I was gonna buy a motorcycle, then marry the motorcycle, and then try to convince my ex-spouse from before the motorcycle to be in a poly relationship with the motorcycle.
Utahraptor: It's never too late!T-Rex: It IS: I missed the middle of my life, so now any crisis I have must be a POST-MIDLIFE crisis!

T-Rex: NOBODY HAS, because they're not a thing!!

What a fucking world where I find myself writing letters like this to my MP.
Letter to my MP:

Dear Fleur Anderson,

I am writing regarding the shocking scenes of masked far-right thugs blocking ports in Dover and, somehow more shockingly, forcing a Portsmouth RNLI station to close.

These scenes are horrific. Equally horrific is the rhetoric from some MPs and the press that these people have "reasonable concerns".

Just Stop Oil protestors have been swiftly stopped and arrested. The crux of their campaign is to ensure that the planet remains in a condition that is livable for humans. The existential threat of climate change is one of the most reasonable concerns one can imagine. Yet they were arrested and decried in the press.

Protestors opposing the genocide in Gaza have been equally swiftly arrested, with some even being proscribed as terrorist organisations. For opposing an ongoing genocide that has killed over 69,000 people - including 17,000 children - according to The British Red Cross. Stopping this appalling violence is another incredibly reasonable concern. Yet they are arrested and decried in the press, while others are proscribed as terrorists.

Preventing saving the lives of desperate people fleeing unsafe conditions is in no way a reasonable concern, yet MPs and the press talk about these masked thugs, preventing lives from being saved and swarming areas of key infrastructure, as having reasonable concerns. This is a shocking stain on this country.

Continued in next imageLetter continues: Migration is a net good for the country, even before you take into account the ageing workforce. The anti-migrant rhetoric comes from dangerous and violent men, and is spurred on by a press that thrives on outrage.

All human lives have equal value. Anyone preventing a lifeboat station - a lifeboat station! - from operating and saving human lives should be arrested and charged far more quickly than an elderly vicar sitting quietly and holding a sign.

I urge you to use your power as an MP to speak out on this. To call these balaclava-wearing men what they are: violent, masked thugs who speak only for a tiny, hateful minority. These are not reasonable concerns of patriots. These are the words and deeds of vicious people who want to fracture this country.

By way of reply, please confirm that you will raise this issue in parliament, and use your power to speak out against this disturbing rise of fascist violence.

Yours sincerely,

Guy Kelly

We did an X-Men LARP recently and we had to figure out "but what subjects would each of the faculty actually TEACH?" Obviously Hank does science. Scott was team-based sports, strategy and tactics. Remy just played card games and would improvise a justification if anyone called him out on it

While I agree with the stance of the post - these things were brought in to save money long term - kiosks in fast food places have been a godsend for me as a disabled person. I lived just a couple minutes walk from a 24 hour McDs for 16 years, so I'd visit a few times a month...

Today is apparently the official/observed Transformers Day, because September 17 was the day the cartoon pilot aired, but it SHOULD be May 8, which is the day the first comic book released, and i think we should have a Nicine Council about it

Oof. Modiphus.net (UK) are having a warehouse clearing sale, a bunch of physical things dropped to £5 (some of them super expensive, like Dune Collector's Editions down from £95). There's plenty that I ... "want" is a strong word. Covet? But I am aware that I will simply never play or read them

Side note: a random priest was once like "You have friends who aren't Christians, what'd you say if they asked you "who is this Jesus guy?"" And I had to be like "dude, weird evangelism implications aside, nobody in twenty first century England has ever asked that question. What is wrong with you?"
