The mapping and subsequent simulations of a fly brain raises some very heady questions about the nature of consciousness.

If Dolly was our constant reminder that it was Good to be Good, Tim Curry was our reminder that it was Good to be Weird. Embrace your strangeness, sing with Muppets, wear your lingerie with a leather jacket, and fuck with uptight people who hate anything that makes them remotely uncomfortable.

Thumbnailing a new piece. I figured it couldn’t hurt to try planning my drawings before drawing them. If you recognize this devil-summoning sorceress, you’re cool people.

I’m not saying his movies aren’t good, but if a female director acted exactly like Christopher Nolan, the criticism and vilification would be loud and nonstop.

I wanted to do one more drawing for #artfight2026, but unexpected events and mental health issues have hindered me from making art this last week. So only 6 attacks this year, but one of them had 2 characters, so in a way I tied last year’s output.

I’ve been laid up sick for a few days and didn’t realize that #artfight2026 is mere hours away! There were a lot of new characters I wanted to add and didn’t get around to, but at least I got a couple good ones ready in time. artfight.net/character/89... artfight.net/character/85...

Happy Pride to this Caravaggio self-portrait that made one man so gay he had to go to the hospital
Caravaggio's Baccus painting, featuring a lush fruity spread and leaves bedecking a pasty twink who only works out his armsArticle screenshot that says:

The most extreme examples of
Stendhal syndrome share a sensation of
self-fragmentation. Magherini
describes the case of a 53-year-old
German man who was hospitalized
after repeatedly viewing Caravaggio's
Bacchus at Uffizi Gallery. The patient
felt "an attraction closer and closer to
an intimate sexual arousal of
ambiguous nature that invaded him
and made him feel good and bad."
Unmoored and distressed, he sought
medical attention. After treating the
subject's initial episode, Magherini
writes that he came to recognize his
latent homosexuality. Another case...
