Finished coloring a #drawing today - wizard faces off against an abyssal dragon. Clip Studio cut-and-grad colors.

the playlist of Zeppelin + Silvestri scores has moved on to the Avengers score, and it's really kinda weird remembering how really excited I was about the Marvel movies at that time.

Listening to "When the Levee Breaks" and remembering @egypturnash talking about working on art in a local (NOLA) cafe when it came on the speakers, and people *booing*.

oh no, it's BONGOS! Alan Silvestri is trying to warn me that we're being hunted, RIGHT NOW!

It occurs to me that opposing actions is a lot more focused/accurate/compassionate than opposing people. You're not opposing some archetypical racist, you're opposing a specific bit of harm that is being pushed on people. I don't know the full story, and personally come from being trained to believe in or be susceptible to belief in a lot of terrible things, so presumably the other side is hugely made up of very well trained people responding in the way they were trained. And surely there are a lot of situations in life and everyone's had their turn as the bad guy?

Etc etc. But of course the problem is it gets nigh impossible to untangle "oppose those doing points of harm" from "monolithic evil entity." It's real easy to look at terrible childhood assumptions and go "what did this person actually do wrong, looking different or speaking a different language doesn't count" and much harder to do that with more philosophical abstracts (money/profession/politics).

Guess if this were easy to figure out I'd be, and I'd be surrounded by, boddhisatvas.

switched to Skald just to see how that feels and it feels

I fear that thought will not return
but I fear more for memory

holy shit Our Mother Electricity is such a good album

I've been listening to it for the last eight hours now and I'm still only 25 minutes in

ohhh shit, I was listening to Queens of the Stone Age but swapped out to Toto's soundtrack for Dune, so you can probably guess what I'm thinking about doing

send a third stage guild navigator to planet Kaitain

the spice must flow

Worked on a couple of #drawings today. A cat fight between two sphinxes, and between djinn; a marid intercedes to save a human from an efreet.

Waiting. Waiting. Waiting. Will kvetch about it later. Waiting.

Damnit I think my eyesight is deteriorating again. Or improving, since I just pulled off my glasses to get this text in focus.

“HE CLAIMS TO BELONG TO AN OBI WAN KENOBI. WONDER IF HE MEANS OLD BEN?”
“THAT WIZARD’S JUST A CRAZY OLD MAN!”
“OKAY, BUT COULD YOU PLEASE PASS THE BLUE MILK?”
“SORRY I MISSED WHAT YOU SAID, COULD YOU SPEAK UP?”

following up Boney M's "Rasputin" with the part of Hellboy where what he does cannot be undone, and he opens a portal and awakens the Ogdru Jahad, the seven gods of chaos
