Starting Rumi. Also trying a technique where I apply a thin layer of Elmer's to the face as a makeup primer 😜 so then I can paint literal acrylic on my girls and really peel it off later.
Selfie of myself holding a bottle of Elmer's and a spongy brush. there's a skeleton with a purple string wig and tape on its head between me and the camera

Make Sh*T Monday: Poster edition 10 years of #MENSLIES on #itsnicethat 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻
#MENSLIES 'CRRDR'
This abstract poster uses muted, grays, reds, and greens to depict a lifted monster truck and the name of the gig, location, as well as some whimsical cartoon characters. 
In contrast, there's saturated orange and hot pink accenting the date, the DJ, and really electrifying the image#MENSLIES Zhao Dai Matisa
Black background with pink sans-serif type in dual columns at the top. A large moss green scribble of a car(?) on top of a giant orange and gray globe(?). Dual columns of pale mint green type at the bottom.

My jaw dropped multiple times, and then I rolled my eyes at my own ⚪️ ignorance We all need to do better, for all these kids.
Excerpt from the article: "I thought of all the times I had witnessed students in segregated schools make similar calculations, including one whip-smart, funny ninth grader I followed for several months some years ago in Detroit named Aabiana. The day of the state tests, I met up with Aabiana after school to see how she felt she did. She just rolled her eyes and laughed, telling me she had randomly filled in the bubbles. The test for her was a setup. In 10 years of public education, she had never attended a school that had not been labeled failing by the state. She'd gone her entire freshman year without a math teacher but now was being tested to prove that her math acumen was on par with other ninth graders. Aabiana refused to participate in a state test that did not take into account the substandard education that same state had allowed her to receive. She could not be labeled a failure if she did not try. It was hard to deny Aabiana's logic.
Somehow, she was expected to value an education for herself when it was clear no one else did."

Ahh!! I'm glad I went to Reddit because THIS, on the other hand, SLAPS by comparison. www.reddit.com/r/TheBlackKe...
In the reddit convo someone shared that they do city-specific posters and the one for Florida does more to make use of the varying typefaces. It's still something I'd try more iterations of...there's odd balance between "THE" and HOLLYWOOD FL at the top. But wholly more original.

typography rant for the day: Black Keys... y'all have fallen so far... Maybe DO NOT combine as many title faces as possible so it *SCREAMS* "We're For Old People Now" ...You do NOT look vintage if you t r a c k e v e r y t h i n g t o d e a t h FOLX: Hire me to do your type. More in the alt
Shit brown background with four typefaces. Cream-colored type with a pop of RED and BLUE in their name for *americana*. "Peaches 'n Kream World Tour '26" in a script, tilted typeface that's tracked like 300%. Tarantino font at the bottom because we wish we were cool like Leon Bridges but we are WHITE.

Ok, but at least Graeber’s framework for “Bullshit Jobs” is about workers feeling their particular job doesn’t need to be done—I could see folks feeling that way across many fields …
Screenshot excerpt ‘On the Phenomenon of Bullshit Jobs’ by David Graeber (2013)
text: “This article was originally published in Strike! magazine on
August 17, 2013.
In the year 1930, John Maynard Keynes predicted that, by century's end, technology would have advanced sufficiently that countries like Great Britain or the United States would have achieved a 15-hour work week.
There's every reason to believe he was right.
In technological terms, we are quite capable of this.
And yet it didn't happen. Instead, technology has been marshaled, if anything, to figure out ways to make us all work more. In order to achieve this, jobs have had to be created that are, effectively, pointless. Huge swathes of people, in Europe and North America in particular, spend their entire working lives performing tasks they secretly believe do not really need to be performed. The moral and spiritual damage that comes from this situation is profound. It is a scar across our collective soul.
Yet virtually no one talks about it.
Why did Keynes' promised utopia-still being
eagerly awaited in the '60s—never materialise?
The standard line today is that he didn't figure in the massive increase in consumerism. Given the choice between fewer hours and more toys and pleasures, we've collectively chosen the latter. This presents a nice morality tale, but even a moment's reflection shows it can't really be true.”
