"No man, Greek or Persian, threatens a messenger. Is this the Krusty Krab?"
"No, this is PATROKLOS!"

aaand I waited too long to eat and consequently am hungry, maltheistic and out of spoons, so really how smart am I?

uspol, abusers 

The other thing is; they pulled this horror during Pride Month. Divide and conquer (don’t think about X, you must worry about Y), keep your victim exhausted, don’t give them anything that feels like accomplishment, try to control all access to information. Whether it’s children behind chain link partitions, conversion therapy or what they’re doing to us now, it’s a consistently abusive attitude.

the discourse 

A stressed animal will run, fight, or go to ground; helplessness overlaps conserving energy.

We, right now, have very limited means to “fight” and fewer to “run.” I don’t want to condemn myself for not fighting, not fighting enough, I don’t like feeling censured and I don’t have the heart to condemn others for “going to ground.”

If you gotta withdraw, DO IT, there’s enough going on your voice will be crucial whenever you feel like you can cope again.

Outside of anthropogenic climate change, environmental concerns are through what I too consider necessity, bumped from priority to fifth rate issues by constant vicious class warfare and bigoted horrors.

If you fight a war on multiple fronts you’re bound to lose somewhere, and biodiversity or conservation are real low priorities, it feels like talking about them is almost privilege. How much will be gone forever by the time there’s resources to look that way again?

Ty for reading.

So, drew someone’s furry character and am trying to crack on this PTSD workbook but my motivation is kinda bad today and anything D&D is a lot more interesting.

So Therezinosaurs have no teeth and weak jaws so whatever they are isn't a normal meat-eater.

They show up near flooded areas, which makes digging for invertebrates an option. But, I'd wonder whether they were also insectivores; that's a very insectivore looking pair of forelimbs and weak jaw and as far as I know big African style ant mounds don't fossilize.

Okay, the political action, shaving and clearing an email box was a pretty decent start to the morning. Going to grab a short nap, then shower, head south, see about doing more with my day.

uspol activity 

Called Contra County Supervisor offices and ask them to break contracts with ICE and close a facility, talked to people at 3, left message on one, chickened out on calling the last since cold-calling is never easy.

Called about a state thing, wrote into EPA, called Senators to request EPA Administrator's removal from office, ran out of steam again. Clearly stating my name or location of course makes me paranoid, and of course nothing changes through legal channels.

Done for now.

like the world's teetering towards mass extinction and I'm currently aging and unemployed in a country which is becoming one of the less nice parts of the third world, so I have things to worry about other than developing art; the world's also full of amazing artists and I never know who's gonna completely blow me away next; and here *I* am, apparently trying to become some weird hybrid of Iain McCaig, Claire Wendling, Edouard Guiton, Mike Ploog and a batch of other influences.

There are all these really awesome painters out there and meanwhile I seem to be going towards some weird cross of really drawing based artists I like, which is great, but I'm not sure I can go anywhere with it.

being Not Angry Right Now is such a nice emotional state of itself.

uspol, more anger 

by the way, Hilary Clinton is still a fucking collaborator, a fucking hypocritical class warrior, and I'm not interested in anything she has to fucking say.

If it were November 2016 I'd vote for her again, and I'd still loathe myself for having to do so.

and fuck bringing up ANYTHING a Bush has to say anything. If you're a fucking Bush, you relinquish your right to pretend to be the good guy about anything, FUCK THAT NOISE!

uspol 

FUCK YES!

and of course the fucking intestinal nematode claims its eeeeevil competitors, but fuck it, I don't care, anything that hurts that evil man's profit margin and breaks his non union company is great in my book. I can remember when I was the sort of liberal who would never say shit like that. 2015 was an okay year, really.

then she came up with "Eva Lasting Gopstopper" which imho is the best one of the lot.
