Artist! Quote with your art with an insanely strong silhouette!

Pierrot The Clown by GothicNarcissus Photography.

Loosely inspired by the Placebo song of the same name, the image is set in an abandoned industrial warehouse and depicts the full figure of a young man (Knajfer Wintermare) dressed in black facing left. Some kind of net-like object dangles from the ceiling almost like an hammock, and the young man sits on it like a post-industrial Pierrot on the Moon. The black and white image emphasises the dark silhouette of the young man and makeshift “moon crescent” agaist the brightly lit, crumbling industrial room.

“Oh, hey, I managed to get the excuse-plot out of the way in less than 900 words. That’s progress! Time to get those two to flirt and fuck.” Cue 1,200+ words of psychological introspection, worldbuilding and emotional vulnerability.

I’ve just found out YouTube has a blur-on blur-off tool for thumbnails of, I’m assuming, “sensitive” search results. Said “sensitive” search were skits by a drag queen who did pop diva impersonations back in the 2010s. I’m so exhausted.

Yes, it’s body shaming but I don’t give a fuck: Michael Tracey looks EXACTLY the way I expected from his disgusting victim blaming and doxxing campaign. Like, it can’t physically get any more incel-coded than that.

I’ll never not be amused by a certain acquaintance who used to be this staunch champion of queer and diverse love, making a big deal of leading by example against familial opposition, and has now got themself the most aggressively performative classic straight family to ever enter my social feed.

Happy Bisexual Visibility Day from my pretty boy vampire!

A portrait of a man whose face is partially obscured by pink, purple, and blue paint/goo, the same colors as the bisexual flag. He is looking directly at the camera.

I could (and should) be writing porn right now, instead I thought it was a nice idea to touch on politics on Instagram, and here I am, having to debunk Putin’s chief mouthpiece in Italy to one of his unwitting acolytes.

So, Francesca Albanese gets interviewed by Russia Today and two weeks later outs herself as a Russian asset making excuses for Putin’s aggression, advocating against sending weapons to Ukraine, and denying Russia’s hybrid war on Europe. Fuck her. You can’t oppose one invasion and support another.

Hey artists, share something. 💚

My Solace by GothicNarcissus Photography.

A self portrait that shows a young man dressed in black with heavy eye make up, lying on a wooden floor amidst vinyls and a headphone set (the vinyls are the double Forever Is The World LP by Theatre of Tragedy and the orange Get The Devil Out Of Me / Smalltown Boy single by Delain).

Astrophotographer Adam (AJ) Smadi caught this image a few hours ago from Washington state. A thin crescent Moon, sunlight illuminating the rugged lunar surface. And 2,400 times farther away—and on the other side of the Sun—mighty Jupiter, and its moons Io (left) and Ganymede (right).

A crescent Moon seen during the day, arcing from upper left to lower right of the frame. At lower centre is the full disk of Jupiter; the small dots to its upper left and lower right and Io and Ganymede, respectively.

In my mind I built this narrative that I lost interest in “real” sex around the time of the pandemic. But I’ve just reread lyrics I wrote through my twenties, and two thirds of them are about how much dating and hooking up bored me, and what an invariable disappointment sex and relationships were.

Flatline by the Sugababes turns 13 today. I imagine there’s some alternate timeline where it became the massive hit it deserved to be, their album got a proper, timely rollout, they kept touring and making music all through the 2010s, and the world never left its hopecore phase. 🥲

Without saying your age, what is your favorite movie that came out when you were 20 years old? Though admittedly, I remember that year for the movie I hated the most that came out when I was 20 years old (which was the “adaptation” of Dorian Gray).

Artist! Quote with your blood art! 🩸

Bloodline by GothicNarcissus Photography.

A self-portrait inspired by the White Sea song of the same name, it shows a bare-chested young man with a glowing halo around his neck, an ecstatic ezpression, and a hand grazing his lips and chin while thick red blood drips down the back of the hand and arm.

The only upside of gen AI I can think of is that it has shut up my environmental guilt over using AC and taking very long showers. If we’re so adamant about dooming our planet in exchange for slopaganda, crappy flyers and legal-washed CSAM, I might as well enjoy my little comforts on the way out.

So, writing my Greek Mythology smut I tend to leave the guys as physically nondescript as possible (aside from, you know, general smoking hotness) so the readers can picture them however they prefer. But I do obviously have my own ideal cast in mind, and I picture Ares as François Arnaud.

You know, with Rupert Grint it isn’t even about career suicide, ‘cause at this point it’s more like euthanasia. It’s about the sheer humiliation of having had to grovel before a smug, smirking, cigar-smoking Joanne, repeating after her. ‘Cause we all KNOW it happened. Can you imagine the sting?

I almost made a joke on how bold it was to cast Kit Harington in a kid’s series, where there’s no way he can show the only assets he’s really worth having on-screen for, but then I realised I sincerely have never really liked him from the neck down either.

Well, ideally I’d like Nicholas Hoult to make a sizeable donation to some trans rights association to, y’know, acknowledge and make up for his oopsie, but I’m taking whatever win we can get here. Meanwhile Kit Harington has taken the “you know nothing, Jon Snow” meme to the next level.
