Playing around with color and techniques ended up making a new little friend!
The mini was a free one I got at nova open last year, from monument hobbies.

Group photo of Sesame Street workers holding their firsts high with graphics showing the logo of their new union and the winning vote tally, 55-19

Sesame Street is officially UNION! Workers at Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit behind Sesame Street, have voted 55-19 to join @opeiulocal153.bsky.social

Huge congrats to @sesameworkersunion.bsky.social! “We can officially say that today, May 15th, is brought to you by the letter U!”

"Masked security forces captured an opposition leader in the coastal province of New Jersey as regime officials continue their months-long crack-down against pro-democracy elements in the embattled United States. The arrest comes as the regime issued calls for summary detentions without trial."

Today is the 111th birthday of Viola Ford Fletcher, the oldest living survivor of the 1921 Tulsa race massacre

He was accompanying members of Congress in an oversight visit to a detention facility that he and they believe is being operated in violation of state & local laws (there are also potential federal legal issues—need to read up more on all the claims)

It’s not *that* unusual to have government officials symbolically get arrested for trespass as part of planned civil disobedience but Ras Baraka’s arrest wasn’t that

Under invasion? A criminal gang cannot "invade" the US, only another country can.

Just a few days after Columbia announces the Pulitzers, the university goes and suspends its own student journalists.

Van Hollen details why he thinks the government of El Salvador is making a huge mistake in turning itself into a concentration camp for Trump

"This is a lesson into the lengths that President Bukele will go to deceive people about what's going on. And it also shows the lengths Trump will go to" -- Van Hollen details how the photos appearing to show him and Abrego Garcia with margaritas were staged by the government of El Salvador

Van Hollen: This case is not just about one man. It's about protecting the Constitutional rights of everybody who resides in the United States of America.

A tweet by Max Burns (@themaxburns ) reads: "From the U.S. Holocaust Museum: 'What distinguishes a concentration camp from a prison (in the modern sense) is that it functions outside of a judicial system. The prisoners are not indicted or convicted of any crime by judicial process.' Welp."

Never forget.

Tumblr post: generative AI literally makes me feel like a boomer. people start talking about how it can be good to help you brainstorm ideas and i’m like oh you’re letting a computer do the hard work and thinking for you??? Tumblr reply: There are many difficult things that were replaced with technology, and it wasn't a bad thing. Washing machine replaces washing clothes by hand. Nothing wrong with that. Spinning wheel replaces drop spindle. Nothing wrong with that. Generative AI replaces thinking. The ability to think for yourself will always be important. People that want to control and oppress you want to limit your ability to think for yourself as much as possible, but continuing to practice it allows you to resist them.

Thank you!

10/10 would paint again #miniturepainting #lionsledbydonkeys

I can see areas I need to improve, the scarf for one, but I like the overall composition, and I am not sure I can improve on it at this time.

It also helped that the model was beautifully detailed and a joy to paint. A friend commissioned me to paint it for them, and I was happy to do so.

I'm finished with "Doug the Donkey" general from Lions led by Donkeys podcast @lionsledbydonkeys.bsky.social

Painting this model was such a stretch for me. Most of my work has been on necrons and other #warhammer minis. I am really proud of this model, and everything I learned from it.

“My detention at Guantanamo changed me. The isolation, the deprivation… it broke us down.”

Black graphic with text “You don't need a permit to protest in response to breaking news and you don't need a permit to march in the streets or along sidewalks, as long as you're not obstructing traffic or access to buildings. When you are lawfully present in any public space, you have the right to photograph anything in plain view, including federal buildings and the police.If you believe your rights have been violated, when you can, write down everything you remember, get contact information for witnesses, and take photographs of any injuries.If you get stopped by the police, ask if you're free to go. If they say yes, calmly walk away.If you get arrested, you have a right to ask why. Otherwise, say you wish to remain silent and ask for a lawyer immediately. Don't sign, say or agree to anything without a lawyer present.If you get stopped by a member of the military or any law enforcement office at a protest, you have the right to remain silent or to tell them that you’ll only answer questions in the presence of an attorney — no matter your citizenship or immigration status.”

If you’re protesting this weekend, know your rights.

One thing that the Silicon Valley tech megaminds don’t seem to have grasped, even though they are watching an example happen in real time in Elon Musk: their precious AI, their sun and stars, is rapidly getting so fash-coded that it will be permanently toxic to many people and they’re cheering it on

Seriously: arrest him. The governor should have state police arrest him and charge him with election fraud. Then immediately hold a press conference explaining you arrested someone for committing election fraud and will continue to do so. Just fucking arrest him already. You can actually do this

There are no words to describe the inhumanity of the times you and I are sharing.
