On the right arm, a kinfisher, and on the top of the head of the octopus, a round duck. The base is burn, on that angle it is not really obvious but is water with a slight wave form arround the octopus. On the background, an old door with old white paint. Top right : Woodcarved creature (Siren Head) with very long skeletal arms and legs, also too many ribs. Its head is a pole with two speakers and wires. Those speakers have teeth. On the highest speaker, a nest with a pigeon. Siren Head is extending its left arm, point a finger forward. A pigeon sits on its index. Caption says "Based on Siren Head by Trevor Henderson" Bottom left : Woodcarved humanoid goose wearing plate armour. She's holding a shield and a flanged mace. On the handle of the mace, a red robin landed. The eyes of the goose are made of glass. The feet and the beak are painted in burnt yellow, as the breast of the red robin. The upper part of the robin is painted in brown/grey and its eyes and beak in black. Bottom right : Woodcarved humanoid crow wearing a hooded cloak, shoulder armor. It has its right hand on a sword. A squirrel is climbing its left arm. On the base, a cat is resting.

In Newton Solney, on the floodplane, there’s an apple tree that has arched back into the ground in a way that’s impossible to tell where it started

A 1944 map by geologist Harold Fisk charts a 40-mile stretch of the Mississippi River from Friars Point to Gunnison, Mississippi. Fisk used aerial photos and maps to estimate the past and then-present channels.

People are so obsessed with attacking the fallout instead of the source. No matter the cause. It's so infuriating. Like I get it, it's a low hanging and easily accessible fruit. But do better. Be better.

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

the war is not "aimless." It is corrupt, unjust and immoral.

Happy Pokemon day! It's 30 years since the first game launched in Japan and I’ve been pretty much obsessed ever since. Here’s so of my Pokemon sculpts to celebrate ✨

Now that's the sort of thing I like to see

A digital drawing of author Maia Kobabe, a white nonbinary person with short brown hair wearing a patterned blue shirt, who scowls while holding up a copy of eir book GENDER QUEER: A MEMOIR. Maia is saying: H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban my books, and any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps and say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

I've read a lot of infuriating things over the past year or so, but this lede is up there. This man spent a year being abused and tortured before being killed by this government. Totally unconscionable.

Tatjana Wood has apparently passed away at age 99. Her father was Jewish so during WW2 her parents sent her to the Netherlands, then NY. She studied as a dressmaker, met/married Wallace Wood and began assisting him, then pivoted to becoming one of the best colorists in comics.

Every time someone posts about being disappointed that a game or app has AI code in it there are comments to the effect of “yea that’s unfortunate but everything will at this point” and like

No? It won’t if people actually push back? The fuck is with all the advanced compliance lmao

Found these AMAZING paintings ...at an estate auction of all places! The artist is Lars Knudsen. It seems like he worked mainly during the 80s/90s, and these are originals for a series of bird posters he produced in collaboration with some zoos around Australia.

Completely handmade picture replete with whimsy, mistakes and a pig bat creature. Best defence against AI slop.

yeah man i LOVE technology*

“why do you hate technology” as though “technology” were some discrete entity divorced entirely from the context of what it does and what it creates, rather than a category so broad as to constitute reality itself
