Started this Trump Admin Fear & Hunger: Termina casualty screen expecting Kash Patels's firing two X marks ago. Added the last two to finish it today because Hegseth was in rare form.

The character roster "death" dream screen from the video game Fear & Hunger 2, retouched to alter characters to resemble members of the Trump administration. From left to right, top row: RFK Jr (and his worm), Tulsi Gabbard (crossed out, left office), Dan Scovino, Susie Wiles, Pam Bondi (crossed out, fired) , Stephen Miller, Pete Hegseth. Bottom row: Kash Patel, JD Vance, Kristi Noem (crossed out, fired) , Marco Rubio, Mike Johnson, Donald Trump, and Howard Lutnick.

At the bottom is a disclaimer, citing "NOT a call to violence. Addition to roster indicates loss of employment/removal from office. May any deceased additions be solely due to natural causes."

It turns out that raspberry flowers are nifty. I wonder if some of them will remember being flowers the way this blueberry did.

A photo of large pink hand providing focus and scale behind a tight, almost macro shot of a raspberry bush's tiny flowers. The upside-down, Hershey's kiss shaped buds of the flowers are about as big as a pinkie thumbnail, pointed downward off the stalk under their weight of containing the flowers. One bud has opened, showing a tightly bundles spray of filaments topped with the pollinating anther on the tip of the dozens of stamens inside.

A (admittedly slightly blurry) photo of a raspberry bush's flowers, about seven tightly clustered together in total, on the end of a thorny stem amid small leaves at the end of the stalk of a branch. The flowers are in different stages, with one in the center retaining its white petals, still not fully unfurled. Others are pollinated and the filaments of the stamen are collected around a growing center of a green bud just starting to turn pink.

A single, tight photo of a blueberry on a rough textured paper towel. It is dark blue-black, round and mostly perfect as a blueberry. However, the petals of the flower is used to be have stayed attached, browned and clustered together at the top, except for one large, obvious petal that lingered on the side of the berry as it grew.

Another view, top down, of the blueberry, showing more obviously what it used to look like as a flower

#terriblecomictuesday in which I hope you learn from my mistakes... 🤦

A sloppy, cartoonish comic sketched in shades of army green and gray.
Panel 1: blonde femme presenting figure viewed from behind, writing an email at her desk. A digital speech bubble for the email says "@pinupwanter@email.com, Hello! Excited to see your open call for pinups on social media. Here's some samples!" followed by a box boring the email as sent.
Panels 2-4: the caption "five hours later" spread across three vignettes of the email writer's day gardening, baking bread, and reading on a couch.
Panel 5: a continuation of the figure seated on the couch, perking up with the dreadful realization of "wait... Did they mean basic standalone character illustrations INSTEAD of spicy pictures?"
Panel 6: closeup of the subject, looking haunted as she realized she sent several spicy pinups to an open call for general all ages illustrations, crude examples of which float around her in the composition in front of the dim, bold lettering of OH NO BRO.

I was not prepared for Toshiro Mifune in "Stray Dog"

A still from the black and white film "Stray Dog", from Akira Kurosawa (1949). The background, most visible in the upper left, is the angled rafters and large arched window of a old fashioned police station. In the foreground are two men, dressed in white. The man furthest to front, on the left, is in short sleeves, seated at a desk, beside a white circular fan almost exactly center of frame. Behind the desk and fan, slightly to the right, is a classically handsome Japanese man in a white suit with a light striped tie, and a serious face with cheekbones that could cut glass.

A still from the black and white film "Stray Dog", from Akira Kurosawa (1949). The classically handsome man and his white suit are noticably more disheveled, his short black hair seated slumped, possibly on the floor of a hallway, with a wall of white tiles angling back and cornering behind him. His stubbled face is low, but his eyes look up intensely, haunted, accusatory, and generally just having a very, very bad day. Cheekbones still sharp.

Random garden pictures because them plants be planted

A photo of a second floor rooftop patio, with rough, aged wood deck floor, about 10 feet wide by 20 feet long. There is a sliding door on the left, alongside a clear plastic crate of garden supplies and an empty three tiered vertical pot garden. There is one bushy jalapeño plant alone in the middle, with some plants of similar size inside a small black net "greenhouse". On the right, along the wrought iron railing, are four large black tubs of soil with thin sunflower seedlings about a foot high.

The same second floor rooftop patio, with rough, aged wood deck floor, about 10 feet wide by 20 feet long,foir months later. There are many more plants, the ones in the photo are much bigger, and the rough wooden deck is covered by a patterned rug.

Another view of the more verdant "after" photo, with the vertical garden tower full of basil, sage, romaine, and geraniums, the large tubs on the right with a dozen sunflowers between six and three feet high, and a green mass of broccoli, potato, raspberry, zucchini, bell pepper, and coffee plants. Along the railing's corner is a trellis covered with this morning glory vines, some sneaking up onto the strings of solar lights draped along the top edge of the garden's posts

What the- these dialogue shots are so much more dynamic than the third Columbo TV movie has any right to be! Who the hell is flexing this hard on... Oh.

A blonde, nerdy bespectacled man from a 70's film. He's wearing a blue dress shirt, looking down at a coupe glass of champagne, standing in a a modern office with added ornate mahogany paneling and an oil portrait of a smiling, grandmotherly woman over his right shoulder.

An alternate view of the modern office, this time from an even lower camera angle, looking up at a man in a tan suit and red shirt, holding his coupe glass of champagne up in a toast. He stands before a shelved row of thick detective novels, in front of a very large plate glass window

Ope, got into the metallic again

Two photos collage together side by side. The left image is a colored pencil sketch of an owl seated on a branch in front of a decorative ly graphic moon/circle as a frame. The owl sketch is lightly inked with a thin black pen. The paper itself is on lined planner with the date Monday, July 13.
The right photo is the same sketch after more time, showing the entire image has been filled with black, except for the owl and branches being filled dark gray, leaving only the owl's eyes white. The circle/moon is filled with metallic gold ink, added in the black negative space as dots of stars throughout.

Good news: introduced myself to new neighbors and gave them some of the many strawberries of picked this weekend. Bad news: forgot I was wearing my MOST HEINOUS meme shirt as I did so.

Photo of a woman a black dress and large black sun hat obscuring her face as she kneels in to Harvest from a field of leafy greens. In the distant backgriwis a blue Adirondack chair and a very old stone wall.

A photo of a rectangular pallet of vividly red fresh strawberries in the foreground, with the background being a vista of verdant crop fields under a blue sky, with several people wandering dirt paths among the rows of plants to Harvest their own berries.

A photo of a chagrined middle aged woman holding her forehead, wearing a baggy black T shirt stating the phrase "HEALTHY LITTER OF PUPPIES" over a dozen times behind an image of a shocked and horrified face of a cartoon man.

A very old Garfield comic strip. Panel 1: Jon, pale brown haired male in turquoise shirt, regards a mug on the table next to his titular orange cat being checked by a vet, a vampy woman with short black hair. He says "'Have a cup of coffee, Jon' Why thanks, don't mind if I do"
Panel 2: Jon takes a single dramatic swig of the contents of the mug. The nurse says "Congratulations, Mr. Arbuckle."
Panel 3: the woman continues her sentence, stating "you are going to give birth to a healthy litter of puppies. Jon makes the shocked, horrified face, his mouth full, same as the shirt echoing that phrase.

Really neat clarity on just how maple trees sprout out of each whirly little key seed.

A trio of photos collaged together, each depicting a hand holding a different sprouted maple key in its palm. The pale brown paddle shaped winged seed pods are split open into a pointed void of bright green, feeding the new plant from the top of the lower quarter of the new infant trees. The rest of the bottom quarter is a small tangle of white roots, joining the seed pod with a flush of pink. Most of the plant is the upper 3/4,most of which is a long straight green shoot, culminating at a cluster of 4-5 small newborn maple leaves.

Happy pride! Please enjoy another life from antiquity that historians tie themselves in linguistic knots describing. It turns out leading the assassination of Rasputin was one of the least interesting things Prince Felix Felixovich Yusupov did in life.

"Felix led a flamboyant life. As a young man, he cross-dressed, which he later recalled to get into cabarets, which denied entrance to those in school uniforms. His brother's mistress Polya had helped him out by giving him her clothes which were a perfect fit. He had ceased doing that one night when he impersonated a singer at a club when a member of the audience spotted the family jewelry. Yusupov made a quick exit by smashing a champagne bottle over the nightclub's power box to cause a temporary winter's night."

"and a housekeeper, and spent much of his time partying. He owned three horses, a macaw, and a bulldog called Punch. He smoked hashish, danced the tango, and became friendly with Luigi Franchetti, a piano player, and Jacques de Beistegui, who both moved in. At some time Yusupov became acquainted with Albert Stopford and Oswald Rayner, a classmate. He rented an apartment in Curzon Street, Mayfair, and met several times with the ballerina Anna Pavlova, who lived in Hampstead."

I'd like to know what discussions were had planning this string performance that put the soloist in a kicky rainbow cocktail number while everyone else got Yeezy prison chic

Seven string instrument performers, six seated and one standing, on a white, geometric raised platform inside a very large, high ceiling greenhouse, with a wide landscape of Welsh scrub brush behind them. The seated performers (five on the left, one on the right) are playing violins in pale neutral gray/khaki sweatsuits with solid black shoes, while the lead violinist standing in the center is wearing a knee length cocktail dress comprised of many inches-large sequined rectangles in a rainbow of colors, accented with silver high heeled sandals and a neon green ribbon holding her high blonde ponytail.

I'm the first to admit that courtroom sketch artistry is incredibly difficult, based on unique, arcane creative skillsets... but this man is being done consistently dirty

His face has more chin and less nose than expected for a human face.

Throwback to when a random pair of Mugler boots bullied me into drawing fanart of Joker's new girlfriend, Punchline. I definitely like the preliminary stages more than the overworked final, but this was back before I could commit to hard shadows. Eh, it's good to get carried away sometimes 💜

A pinup drawing of a dark haired woman in Gothic clothing, reclining in a feminine pose on a grid of pale gray broken tiles, on a medium gray flat background. The woman, a DC character named Punchline, has very long dark hair pulled up in a high ponytail, tied back with pink and blue pompoms, the blue matching a streak in her blunt bangs.she has dramatic winged eyeliner and blue eyes, with small clown-coded dots beneath the makeup. Her top is mostly sheer purple mesh, with a black high collar and, arm bands on her lower and upper arms, as well as a tank top. She wears a shiny blue-black latex/leather miniskirt, and thigh high boots from Mugler, with cartoonish candy swirls vertically up her legs. She is leaning back on one hand, with her other hand clutching a gas mask with purple lenses.

The same image as before, rendered in a softer, more painterly style. The background is extended to reveal a warped medical/hospital coded hallway, with gray and white linoleum tiles and white tiled walls covered in ominous, scratchy graffiti of smiles and the word "ha ha ha" repeated st random. Some of the graffiti is red, implied to be blood, matching the splatter beneath the hand holding the woman's wait in her reclined pose. On the fringes of the frame, green, sickly gas rings the pinup figure.
