I drew Nicky Wire from the Manic Street Preachers to celebrate his 57th birthday. His grin was a challenge, especially with vine charcoal.
A charcoal drawing of Nicky Wire’s head, cropped close in, referenced from a photo c1991. He is tilting his head and smiling. The drawing pad is on a black background and the drawing is framed by a piece of vine charcoal, a blending stump and a magic eraser.

I find this utterly thrilling and could watch on repeat. How I would love to scream it out. From Masses Against the Classes by Manic Street Preachers.

Well, thank you for writing it! It added so much context for me, and I loved getting a sense of your personality in it as well. I found out that you wrote Curepedia as well (which we sometimes have at the book/record shop where I work), so looking forward to reading that too :)

Hi, it me. Fuck fascists. I have been doing diy t shirts.
A head and shoulders pic of me with a David Bowie shirt made by Acid Rags. My hair is getting longer and, if I may be so bold, very rock n roll. A head and shoulders pic of me with a black shirt that I spray painted with hot pink so that you can see black text that says: “cuLTuRe ALieNatiOn BoRedOM & dEsPAir” 
My hair a rocky shaggy thing and I am wearing a subtle version of Nicky Wire blue eyeshadow and black eyeliner. Another black tee with pink spray paint that says I [Heart] Hoovering in a nod to the hoovering housewife Nicky Wire.

Just finished this incredible book by @simonprice.bsky.social about Manics. They are such an underrated band in America. They have been fueling my rebellion since I rediscovered them. I only ever knew the song “If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next” but they are that and so much more.
My hand holding a paberback copy of Everything by Simon Price. There are a few records in the background (Antidepressants by Suede and Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust by David Bowie).

Hello. It’s been a while. I drew this picture of Placebo from 1998. Since I was last here I have become very interested in Placebo, Shudder to Think, and Manic Street Preachers.
A marker style drawing of the band Placebo around 1998. Steve Hewitt, Brian Molko, and Stefan Olsdal sitting on a red couch. Brian is leaning his head on Steve’s shoulder and is holding his arm. Steve and Stefan wear black and Brian wears a dark red button up shirt.

My copy is a 1987 Canadian reissue. I dig the update, it feels respectful to the original design but fresh. Btw, this reminds me of the time about 10 years ago when I discovered I owned 4 copies of Mellow Yellow.

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖
A pride flag with every color band represented by a NASA image. White is Earth clouds, pink is aurora, blue is the Sun in a specific wavelength, brown is Jupiter clouds, black is the Hubble deep field, red is the top of sprites, orange is a Mars crater, yellow is the surface of Io, green is a lake with algae, blue is Neptune, and purple is the Crab Nebula in a specific wavelength.

Now listening to Te Whare Tiwekaweka by Marlon Williams
A photo of the album cover for Te Whare Tiwekaweka by Marlong Williams (Navy record cover with white text and a white and navy drawing of a figure in a tall hat and dark clothes walking along a path toward a house) with my record player below. It is surrounded by music memorabilia and 45s and tapes.

It’s probably for the same reason that young folks are obsessed with shitty digital cameras that put out images at 600x900 pixels? Everything old is new again.

Worth sharing with alt text. Brian Eno's response to the Quaker arrests.
Brian Eno 2h. On the Arrest of Young People at a Quaker Meeting House Last night, six young people were arrested by police during a peaceful gathering at a Quaker Meeting House. They had assembled to talk, reflect, and organise around two issues of overwhelming moral gravity: the climate emergency, and the continuing destruction in Gaza. That the police chose to forcibly enter a Quaker space-a site known throughout history for its deep commitment to peace and nonviolence—is both alarming and telling. These young people were not disrupting the peace. They were enacting it. We live in a time where the greatest threats to our future go unchallenged by those in power, while those who speak out are increasingly met with suspicion, hostility, and force. When the state begins to treat moral concern as criminal intent, we should all be paying close attention. The people arrested last night were not extremists. They were citizens who care-young people who see the interconnected crises of climate collapse and human suffering and refuse to turn away. They gathered not in violent defiance, but in peaceful conscience. I stand with them. I believe their voices are not only valid, but vital. If the institutions meant to protect us cannot bear to hear these voices, then it is not the protesters who are disrupting order—it is the silence of those who look away. - Brian Eno

Caroline Kingsbury at Club Dada, Dallas TX
A photo of Caroline Kingsbury on stage. She is singing into a microphone and she has her hand lifted above her head, creating a heart shape. There is a blue shadow across her eyes and the lighting is pink and warm. She is wearing a black body suit with dimensional fabric roses and leafy vines and a wide hot pink belt.

A lot of my pop culture drawings happen because I will randomly think of a moment from a movie or tv show and feel compelled. Nicole Kidman is so powerful in Eyes Wide Shut.
A drawing of Nicole Kidman in Eyes Wide Shut, waist up, wearing a white skintight tank top and looking severe and powerful. There is text at the bottom that says “if you men only knew” in a font that looks like old fashioned label tape in a lilac with black background. My website is on the side, brookeopiecreative.com

It’s #MaxFunDrive and I’m still thinking about this jingle a listener sent in to @jordanjessego.bsky.social some years ago. Did you know Walton Goggins has a vodka? Anyway, you should become a Max Fun Member because the world sucks right now and we need little bits of joy to keep us going.

I need y'all to sit with this headline and understand what is being done to our community. They're trying to criminalize our very existence. This is a campaign of eradication. www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/rcna...
"A screenshot of an NBC News article headline. The headline reads: 'Texas bill would make identifying as transgender a felony punishable by jail.' Below the headline, a subtext states: 'The bill, while unlikely to pass, highlights the increasing extremism of legislation targeting trans people, especially in Texas, in recent years.' The NBC News logo is visible at the top, along with a navigation bar that includes a 'WATCH' button and a user profile icon."
