Really thankfull to amazingly talented @lurnoise.bsky.social for adding my fav page of her comic—Ekphrasis—to her store, so that I could get it to hang on my wall 💖

The caption is "I know from experience and for a fact that in the past I've hurt myself following those desires, and that in the future I'll do so again."

In Daoist astrology, autumn is the time of the White Tiger of the West and the element of metal. It represents a movement inward, a time to reflect, to grieve, and to celebrate the good things life brings, in preparation for the harsh truths of winter. #WyrdWednesday

Probably because of this particular moment in my life, I have been struck by this image about 9/11. I was a trenager when it happened and I indeed was being raised like History has ended and the future would have been a peacefull and radiant time, founded on democracy and freedom. What an irony.

Mages Unite ✨ Tee version will be available very soon👀 ⟡ #finalfantasy ⟡ #art ⟡ #illustration
Image shows four different types of mages that  are walking in a row, surrounded by nature, a river and starry sky. The river is reflecting what the sky shows.

First we see a Red mage with a ranger hat with a feather, long white hair and wearing a red coat with cloak. He is holding a rapier with his right hand

Behind him is the White mage wearing a big white cloak with red triangle/way patterns, she is blonde with braided hair, and  holding her staff.

After her is the Black Mage, wearing a big blue cloak with a pointy wizard hat. They're holding a rod with their hand.

and for last: we see the Summoner wearing a red headband with a horn attached to it. He is wearing a big yellowish cloak with a big yellow ribbon on top.

War as a moral metaphor is limited, limiting, and dangerous. By reducing the choices of action to “a war against” whatever-it-is, you divide the world into Me or Us (good) and Them or It (bad) and reduce the ethical complexity and moral richness of our life to Yes/No, On/Off.

Adagio of Life and Death (from the soundtrack of the same name by Joe Hisaishi) 240x420 pixel, 32 colors Celebrating Princess Mononoke's return in italian movie theatres (not my usual) #pixelart #studioghibli #princessmononoke
An illustration of a flooded forest with rich, lush vegetation from the movie Princess Mononoke, by Hayao Miyazaki. In a clearing between trees,  shrouded by warm light, the silhouette of the Forest God, looking directyl at the viewer.
Scattered across the fern leaves, the tree bark and grass, many kodama spirits can be seen.

Reflected in the lake below, the warm light dims into a nocturnal sky, as the deer god reflection takes the shape of the starlit Nightwalker.

This painting by Iranian artist Mostafa Sarabi depicts a dense red forest under a night sky, with a full and crescent moon, and three small figures walking. Sarabi is known for dreamy, surreal landscapes with vibrant colors and flattened perspectives.
Mostafa Sarabi's work often explores themes of memory, nature, and the subconscious. His style has been compared to folk art and naive art, characterized by vibrant color palettes and a bold use of primary and secondary colors, as seen in the striking reds and blues of this painting. Surreal elements include the simultaneous presence of multiple lunar phases, a hallmark of his dreamlike imagery. Flattened perspective is a technique that emphasizes patterns and shapes over traditional three-dimensional realism.

my latest books cartoon for @theguardian.com
Two hooded figures with lamps approach a moonlit, isolated cottage.
A woman answers the door.
We have come for the child, says the hooded figure
So soon? she asks
It is time, says the hooded figure.
The woman is distraught. We should never have got him a library card!
What is done cannot be undone, says the hooded figure
We couldn’t see the harm! We just wanted him to enjoy reading! 
For most, it ends there, says the hooded figure, turning away and walking into the wilderness
Oh lord, What have I done! says the woman,
the child walks past her and out into the darkness with them.
Do not cry mother. 
I am a writer now.

Rewatching my favourite film—LadyHawke—with my fianceé tonight, with some home made popcorn and the cats purring on our laps. An happy moment in such grim times.
The british quad poster for the film "LadyHawke": a boy in a white robe with a flying eagle on the left panel; a knight in a black armor embracing a girl in a red robe in the middle one; the same knight with the face of a beautiful pale woman over him on the right side.

Singular Delight

I confess—there is in me a delight most singular,
Born not of joy, but of sensation itself—
The solemn veiling,
The slow unveiling,
Of what once was innocent,
And now returns, transfigured, to mock its own past form.

It tears me—yes, it tears me entirely—
This frail and trembling ruin that I inhabit;
This wounded heart, toiling and laboring within my breast,
A restless engine of insatiable longing,
Half-starved, and never given to rest.

And yet—I am not blind to my own affliction.
I know all too well the architecture of my suffering.
For within me rises a vast and stormy sea,
Whose tides rise unbidden,
Whose waves break with pitiless violence
On the fragile shores of reason.
Such storms—
Make men unfit for tenderness,
And cruel in their desire.

So I am condemned—
To wander in a restless exile of the soul,
Between burning passion and slow, corrosive envy—
Of a sincere warmth,
Of a weightless beauty,
Of that ineffable grace you possess
Without knowing its tyranny.

And so I retreat—
Not into peace, but into creation.
There I roam the harsh, sterile fields of thought,
Draging crude, shapeless meanings to light,
As if a sharp, merciless instrument
Could still carve from the abyss of silence
A music profoundly sad—
And otherworldly.

-Lente Scura

Grigori Kozintsev’s Hamlet (1964) boasts the greatest depiction of the Ghost I’ve seen, on screen or stage. A disembodied suit of armor moving like slow-motion clockwork, billowing cape rolling and rippling like the black ocean or the rumbling storm clouds overhead, wheezing with a dead whisper.

ink drawing- a golden apple is passed between two angelic figures. On the left, one has her hands hovering above the apple and her wings are unfurled, leaving her face exposed. On the right another figure holds her hands outstretched below the apple. Her wings are covering her face. The apple is shining and gold.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue is watching Green leave for a costume party, all donned up in a suit and a mask.
Blue: Have fun at the party!
Green: I will! See you tomorrow!

Now alone, Blue looks around himself.
Blue, thinking: Huh. I've got the whole place all to myself. I can do whatever I want.

Blue proceeds to sit on his computer, quietly playing videogames, and then going to bed at 9 pm.
