White supremacist cops take a minority citizen, drive him out to the woods as a threat, and leave him there. No, it's not Mississippi in the 1930s, why do you ask?

Oh my heart is so full reading about this. The US Colored Troops were huge in the story of emancipation and in the human dignity of enslaved Black people. For the first time they had weapons and uniforms, just like white men.

I was raped at a frat party. It’s a shockingly common experience and preventative interventions in college are way too late.

A good fresh Star Trek take on those fake isekai title jokes

A tumblr screenshot showing a post and two reblog responses, reading:
1. "star trek would be the ideal fictional universe to get trapped in because you'd explain your situation and they'd be like yeah makes sense. no further questions. fortunately we can use the mysterious warp signature emitting from this system's icy moon to counterface with the solar radiation and slingshot you back home"
2. "I'm from a universe where your world is all a work of fiction." Benjamin Sisko, nodding. "That happened to me once."
3. "I Got Isekaid Into The Star Trek Universe And They Quickly Understood What Was Happening"

finally fixed the plot hole, which wasn't too difficult to fix but did a lot to put me back in the writing groove. what makes writing and arting simultaneously so hard is they demand different things and i have to push and pull on so many levers switching between these modes.

Busan has a new resident named Bukangi, a shark who started chilling in the canals near the train station a couple weeks ago. The city has been trying all sorts of schemes to gently lead her back to the ocean but she foils every attempt and swims back and forth being admired by crowds of fans.

This 33-year-old nurse told the FBI she knew she was “going to set him free” after border patrol agents brought in a man whose face was bloodied and seriously injured. She treated him and helped him escape, and she faces charges now. He got away, and they never relocated him.

I really do think tech crossed a line at some point between "helping you do the things you want to do" on the one hand, and "helping you do the things tech wants you to do" on the other. At this point, we're all contorting ourselves to live how the tech industry thinks we should be living.

fucked up again and committed to the Eyvind Earle background study and gave myself a new laptop wallpaper while I'm at it. now I need to commit to the "finish writing THEN do more art" challenge. good fucking luck to me. #tolkienarting

Digital painting of LOTR's Ithilien in Eyvind Earle's Sleeping Beauty style which is heavily inspired by medieval tapestry and art. The scene includes Disneyfied versions of the movie trilogy's Faramir and Aragorn, with Faramir wavering and looking back at Aragorn while following his fellow Rangers back into the woods.

Y'all I've done fucked up again and committed to yet another crazy project. Goddammit.

fun fact: one of the things that made me decide "no, I will get an actual diagnosis", rather than just assuming, was the subtitle of a thread about ADHD on the SomethingAwful forums because it hit so hard it hurt it was along the lines of "if you were lazy, you would be having fun"
