Happy 25th anniversary to Kushiel's Legacy! This series helped shape my passion for dark elegance & subtle strength. I can finally share my tribute of a fan cover of CASSIEL'S SERVANT after spending many late nights on it. Thank you for this gift of inspiration @jacquelinecarey.bsky.social !🌹

A warrior wearing daggers at his waist and a longsword on his back crosses his forearms in a salute. His eyes are closed in a pensive pose as he stands resolute in his duty. Behind him, the woman he has sworn to protect, walks a path of broken glass into a golden window of thorny rose vines. The black tribal tattoo on her back marks her as a chosen of Kushiel. Pinpricks of red mark its blossoms.

The painting is rendered in grayscale with gold accents dotting the dust motes, floating feathers, and rose designs.

read Kushiel’s Dart by @jacquelinecarey.bsky.social when i was around 16-17. completely changed my entire concept of what relationships could be. definitely one of the reasons i figured out my bisexuality & non-monogamy at an early age.

Lol! A good reminder that there are lots of scammers out there. Unless it's a service you've contracted of your own initiative, money flows TO the writer. Anyone offering you a great opportunity FOR A FEE should be regarded with serious side-eye.

The Trump administration is warehousing pregnant child rape victims in a Texas facility, away from adequate medical care, in a state with one of the highest maternal mortality rates in the US, so that these child rape victims won’t be able to get abortions. www.throughline.news/p/the-trump-

WIP Wednesday! What are you working on artists, writers, etc? I've decided midway through painting Joscelin from @jacquelinecarey.bsky.social's "Cassiel's Servant" that I'll redo the bottom half of the hero figure of this cover. Setting myself back a few hours, but it'll be worth it! 🥲 Yes indeed.

An in-progress painting of Joscelin, the warrior monk bodyguard who is the main character of Jacqueline Carey's "Cassiel's Servant". He wears two knives at his waist and a longsword on his back, a cloak billowing behind him. He is layered in chainmail and woolen cloth, his hair bound in a leather club. Feathers float around him.

A detail shot of the in-progress painting of Joscelin with a to-do list of work that still needs to be done which reads:

TO DO:
- Redo lower half
- Balance the values
- Find more material ref
- Ever more rendering ...
The journey continues! Follow along on my Patreon www.patreon.com/angelasasser

Oh, puh-leeze. It has nothing to do with falling "out of love with liberalism," and everything to do with Rowling's transphobia. Well, and the antisemitic stereotypes. And the classism.

On a downtown street in Minneapolis, as people stream out from the massive march, Mary Tyler Moore says “fuck ice.”

A picture of the Mary Tyler Moore statue in downtown Minneapolis, depicting the iconic moment from the show where she throws her hat in the air. But the hat has been covered over with a protesters cardboard sign, reading “FUCK ICE.”

You have to go through Congress for anything resembling this type of war. Round up Massie and Paul types and have him removed. The people in this administration are on actual drugs and have insatiable bloodlust and bespoke mental illnesses. He has to go, and everybody with him.

If a news story makes you angry at a group of people with whom you have no direct experience, you're probably being manipulated. Also, you might be dumber and meaner than you knew. 😑

I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along

Trump's Truth Social posts should be widely disseminated. The average American voter has NO idea how deranged and utterly incoherent he is on that platform. Not sure what the best mechanism is to accomplish that.

Democratic politicians need to stop accepting Trump’s white nationalist premise that immigration is bad and proudly and loudly make a positive case for why America’s identity and history as a nation of immigrants is so important.

I watched a lot of B-grade 1980s post-apocalyptic films in my youth, and based on the level of violent sadism unleashed in this nation, I'd say we're a generation away from Rutger Hauer slamming a dog skull on stake.
