Ultimately one of the sad basic facts of being marginalized is that there will be people from your group allied to folks who hate you, and working hard to make sure you stay second class citizens at best.

You have no idea what these guys stand to get out of it other'n maybe tax cuts and their Republican friends won't call them slurs to their face, but "opposed to you" and "opposed to just letting people be" are the same regardless of ethnicity, gender or orientation.

Made it out. Nearly home, buying aloe to put on my neck

I probably should have firmly set a time that I’d leave and insist on that.

They’re just starting to cook dinner now.

Gonna get out of here eventually, then head home and have a beer and an edible.

Here’s a hummingbird from today’s walk! And some swift nests under the I-5 bridge!

I’m really glad now I had lunch. If I were doing this on less blood sugar I’d be miserable rn rather than “kinda cranky.”

You might not believe it but it was assumed I’d do dinner here. Also I really like finishing sentences, and usually don’t notice that part.

I'd like to dedicate this to the fucking earth rapist, theocratic bigot war criminal book-banning traitors who held my country for ransom and were willing to negotiate for perks like, oh, making poor people have to jump through more hoops to get food stamps.

re explosions

why is it that "Baywatch" has nothing to do with Michael Bay?

I mean he could direct a Baywatch movie and they could even have bagels as a tie in

oh I love trash!
Anything dirty or dingy or dusty
anything ragged or rotten or rusty
yes I love trash!

oh will you look at this egregious bullshit?

I have here a newspaper 13 months old
I wrap fish inside it it's smelly and cold
but I wouldn't trade it for a big pot of gold!
I love it because it's trash!

classical Greece; came up with the muscled cuirass

classical Greece; also, had Diogenes living out of a barrel while claiming he was an oWo doggo.

therefore; if you showed a fursuit to someone from 5th century Athens, not only would they not have culture shock, they'd want one.

colored a couple of #drawings today. An old attempt to be Wayne Reynolds, fire elemental mounted on hellhound and elemental lord. And a more recent ant-gnoll from Pathfinder. Eye contact, macabre imagery.

Today was a good day. *coughs up blood* A good day. Go.

... err sorry wrong movie.

okay, somehow I went from the mideastern leitmotifs in The Thirteenth Warrior to listening to Niyaz.

This is going to end with me getting stuff to make sabih or something

oh YEAAAH it's time for the Thirteenth Warrior soundtrack again!

My name is Ahmed ibn-Fadlan, ibn-Hamid, ibn-Rashid, ibn-Alabas. And things were not always thus.

Okay, so I may have mentioned this before.

Back when I was a fairly little coyote, there was this show, The Electric Company - it was supposed to be Sesame Street for slightly older kids, fun but educational TV. I have no clue how something so focused on Black people and NYC got air time in rural Georgia public broadcasting but it was a brilliant show.

A LOT of the educational parts were cartoons which taught you about bits of written English - for instance Tom Lehrer contributed songs which got cartoons, about the -ly suffix or silent e. Some cartoons repeated a theme inspired by 2001, which was still pretty recent at that point. There'd be a 2001 style monolith and to the tune of Also Sprach Zarathustra, it'd crumble to reveal a syllable, like OO or AWK, which they'd repeat several times so you'd know how to pronounce it in the future.

So you can imagine how surprised I was when I finally was old enough to watch 2001... and there were monoliths... which didn't crumble at all!

*clicks on image* Okay, it's time for the furry cockworship theme tune again.
