And you definitely don't want to use a high-powered 532nm green laser, because it can permanently burn and disable digital camera CMOS or CCD sensors. Green light is absorbed at a very high efficiency by these electronic sensors, meaning concentrated beams easily melt or overload the pixel array.

Here’s the thing about Christ’s return. Christ said specifically that he would return as the naked, the hungry, the thirsty, the prisoner, the immigrant. Jesus has never stopped coming back. American Christians have never stopped killing him.

Amazing to see how storyboard artists are being eliminated in favor of AI when studios and producers often avoided paying us for our work anyway.

Made a digital color study of Dragonbat Personcat, based on the original marker drawing a I did a few weeks ago. I’m thinking of putting this onto an 18”x24” canvas in oils, though I might try a gel pen drawing first. Any suggestions? #art #artistsofbluesky #popsurrealism

This is literally what they do whenever a Black person is killed by police. No matter how solid the evidence is, they will keep pushing that lie, not just to poison the conversation and make sure the killer walks free, but to reassert the political idea that these people deserve to be killed.

A painfully long legacy legacy of imperialism in South America. Today has been another reminder that no country is safe and 'independence' is just an illusion.

A long history of US intervention in Latin America
US strikes on Venezuela under President Donald Trump reflect a long history of US intervention across Latin America, particularly during the Cold War. Here’s a closer look:

Guatemala – 1954: The CIA backed a coup that overthrew elected President Jacobo Arbenz Guzman after he pursued land reforms affecting US corporate interests, ushering in decades of instability and military rule.
Cuba – 1959–1961: After Fidel Castro overthrew strongman Fulgencio Batista in 1959, the US sought to remove him, culminating in the failed CIA-backed Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961.
Brazil – 1964: The US supported anti-communist forces and pro-US politicians, helping pave the way for a military coup that removed President Joao Goulart and installed a repressive government that lasted until 1985.
Dominican Republic – 1965: US troops invaded to prevent the return of leftist President Juan Bosch, citing fears of a “second Cuba,” and helped install a US-aligned government.
Ecuador – 1961–1963: US-backed anti-communist efforts coincided with political turmoil that ended with a military coup, severing ties with Cuba and aligning the country more closely with Washington.

Bolivia – 1964–1970s: The CIA supported coups against elected leaders, including Víctor Paz Estenssoro, and later worked to undermine President Juan Jose Torres after he nationalised US companies.
Uruguay – 1960s–1973: US security assistance and intelligence cooperation supported repression of left-wing groups before the asset of a military government.
Chile – 1970–1973: The CIA funded opposition efforts against President Salvador Allende, leading up to the 1973 military coup by Augusto Pinochet and a 17-year US-backed brutal government.
Argentina – 1976: The US supported the military government that seized power, backing a regime responsible for widespread torture and disappearances during the “Dirty War”.
El Salvador – 1980s: The US massively increased military aid during the civil war, backing forces responsible for atrocities such as the 1981 El Mozote massacre.
Nicaragua – 1980s: The US backed Contra rebels fighting the Sandinista government, including through the covert Iran-Contra operation.
Grenada – 1983: The US invaded after internal unrest, citing concerns over Marxist governance and Cuban influence, and replaced the government with a US-aligned administration.
Panama – 1989: US forces invaded Panama to remove military ruler Manuel Noriega, ending his oppressive government and reasserting US influence over the Panama Canal zone.

A little reminder that England's 17thC Taliban - the people who were later kicked out to become the 'pilgrims fleeing persecution' in the US - were so batshit that they declared Christmas 'Satanic'

"Public notice, the observation of Christmas has been deem sacrilege, the exchanging of gifts and greetings, dressing in fine clothing, feasting and similar satanical practices are hereby forbidden with the offender liable to a fine of five shillings."

People in the US won't believe this, but a society requiring people to own a motor vehicle to get anywhere actually gives you LESS freedom than a society where you can safely walk, bike, or feasibly opt to take mass transit. If you're a slave to your car, you're also a slave to your job.
