Duke of Hell vs adventurer. #dnd #drawing

More #dnd themed #drawings - I started the dragon turtle picture up in Seattle and finally tightened the last bit today! The red wizard and pinup drow are from Sunday, just didn’t post them. CW some nudity.

Furryish #pinup #drawings finished today. The more humany types are #dnd hybrids, dire/winter wolf and lizard folk respectively. CW for nudity.

NORSE PAGAN FOLK MUSIC WHATEVER minor key, darkly thematic use of galdr style chants, lur, talharpa etc. I'm such a sucker for this.

WHAT I SUSPECT EARLY MEDIEVAL SCANDINAVIANS LISTENED TO stupidly upbeat fast paced, simple fiddle melodies. Really pointless work songs about sheep-sheering.

It doesn't help with me that a lot of the WASTE OF MONEY types mention OH THE POOR HOME OWNERS BEING SOAKED FOR PROPERTY TAXES. Being well off enough to own a house is increasingly rare, but especially where I'm currently trapped or am likely to move. It's like asking me to feel sympathy for people who drank from the Holy Grail.

It pisses me off when rich assholes diss public libraries. The community utility libraries provide include;

1) Outside of our society's constant grinding class war, y'know who else might not have money available for books or coffee whenever they want hangout space? Children, teenagers, senior citizens.

2) Having a place to go that's NOT your "home" is incredibly useful for anyone. Libraries also have A/C which works - a lot of houses and apartments don't.

But I have to give you credit for my start
And your tattoos on the outside
For just like you I make myself a work of art
I'll never hide. I can't! I'm too SHINY!
Watch me dazzle like a diamond in the rough,
Strut my stuff, my stuff is so SHINY!

Die Antwoort, the musical equivalent of Chef Boyardee ravioli. I fess up to getting into them specifically thanks to the hyenas appearing in the video for Fatty Boom Boom.

when I'm on the mike it's like MURDER MURDER MURDER
KILL KILL KILL
welcome to South Africa,
suck my fuckin' pil!

And this shitty ride is going to get worse, because now the enemy has a chance of losing power. They're going to ram through any horrible bullcrap they can, they're going to tamper with (especially Black) ability to vote if they can, and that THING is going to get a lot more pushy about possible war to come across as Strong Leader Who Takes No Bullshit™️​ and to use the don't-swap-governments-in-mid-war thing.

I feel crummy so here’s an awesome mural in Oakland and some painted sidewalk right next to it!

And interview done. I’d like this job, even if it means staying near Oakland, but interviews aren’t a thing I feel optimistic about no matter how they go (and I didn’t get a clear read from the manager either way). I feel kinda wrecked.

'Amazing Dragon' Fossil Upends Origins of World's Largest Dinosaurs https://on.natgeo.com/2JQPINr via @NatGeoScience

so cool. It's all there - the idea that the lineage started out bipedal (which explains the trackways with young animals running on hindlegs!), the bone reabsorbtion/redistribution.

Have I mentioned just how awesome dinosaurs are?

Commence primary ignition! Standby for "Name The System" with your host, Wilhuff Tarkin!

You would prefer another target, a military target? Then...

NAME!

THAT!

SYSTEM!

doo doo doot, it's TMITuesday! Gonna pop onto Twitter and ask if people wanna see photos of my boybits!

* pops onto Twitter *

oh my god, everyone hates everybody else, I'm completely horrible already, and the world is on fire.

* closes Twitter *

since my art-for-bucks email address doubles as my political-action email address, I emailed customers then left voice mails and emailed comments for senators, left protest VM for the Israeli consulate, and signed some petitions.

All three recorded phone assessments now completed. That was nervewracking in a new and different way, but now I'm almost done for the day unless I want to hit more job boards.
