As many of you may or may not know, I still own the original artwork for Pendelhaven. It’s one of the pieces from my early years working on Magic: The Gathering, and a part of MtG history. Over the years it’s become one of the more recognizable cards from the game. I’m grateful for that, and grateful to everyone who still plays it in their decks. That said, original art doesn’t do much just hanging on my wall. Lately I’ve been thinking about whether it might be time for it to move on to a collector who would really enjoy owning it. I’m not committing to anything yet, and I honestly don’t know if anyone would be willing to pay the price id want for it, or how much interest there might be. But I’m curious to hear what people think. If you’re a serious collector, or know someone who might be interested, let me know your thoughts.

Yoooooooo

If the only way you can think to compliment me is to put another woman down, you are not complimenting me, you are being a misogynist

This is why I’ve said time and time again that working in comics as a creator full time is unsustainable. My quality of life immediately improved when I got a full-time job and only took on comics/freelance projects I wanted to take on and not taking all jobs out of necessity.

Here's a draft manuscript of the Magic: The Gathering roleplaying game from 1996, and I've giving it away as a fundraiser for Planned Parenthood, with permission from the authors. Not sure how much to ask for. Vanishingly rare. $1,872 raised so far. #mtg #ttrpg

Kaleidotrope is currently open to artwork submissions.

Hear me out-- as a 90's wrestling fan:

It's the storylines. It's the characters. Heroes and villains. The athleticism on display. It's basically live stunt choreography.

Performance martial arts.

@RepOgles on X: Muslims don't belong in American society. Pluralism is a lie. 09 Mar 26

Nazis to the core

This didn't happen. The perception that it did is largely based on fictional shows that were about rich people. Much more common was a household where one person (theoretically Dad in a het household) was the higher earner and paid the housing costs and the other paid utilities & food

Roseanne was a decent representation of the common white American experience financially. Two incomes, a revolving set of debts and an expectation that everyone pitch in. Even the 50's & 60's TV shows that created this mythos were explicitly highlighting the lives of men making 5 times the average

Leave It To Beaver is probably the most common reference point for this and in the pilot they make it clear she's from Kentucky horse money. She has a trust fund. And in a time when the average white man earned 5K a year, he earned over 20K a year. That's around 200K in today's numbers.

Most common was a situation where the lower earning partner did work that wasn't recognized as work. Tutoring, sewing, laundry, domestic labor that people perceive now as worthless. It brought in 20 to 40% of the household income. And often the land or furnishings for that house came from her.

And I get why people think it happened. There was a cultural pressure to preserve egos that meant families didn't really talk about the pin money. Little House on the Prairie has an excellent scene with Mrs Oleson and Nellie about the importance of women having their own even in the 1800s.

The store is Mrs. Oleson's and Nels acts the way he does because he knows he married up. Hell Charles Ingalls is not who keeps the family afloat (in reality that man was a damned fool) it is Caroline's constant production of everything from eggs to sell to pies to sewing that keeps them alive

All still available!

I have officially graduated university! If anyone knows of any jobs in the area of (Industrial) Design or commissions to get by, please lemme know! My portfolio can be found at www.stregawolf.art

She was the first trans person I ever met. She used to come to the library I worked at when I was a teen. I deeply admired her.

Study suggests most Americans would be healthier without daylight saving time According to a new analysis by Stanford Medicine scientists, changing clocks twice a year disrupts circadian rhythms, leading to higher rates of stroke and obesity.

Yes: Permanent Standard Time will same lives and give us better health.

Like that particular horological configuration (DST), or like changing a small number of clocks twice a year?

Made enough progress on alters that I’m opening up a slot, but not just any slot, something really cool!

I picked up these 3 cards. surge foil living death, a foil panharmonicon, & a mystery foil card 👀

If you want one of these altered, it’ll be 100$ for each named one, 130$ for the mystery!

Fox’s dignified transfer footage now just completely excludes Trump

Remarkable how shook Fox is by the footage of Trump wearing a tacky campaign hat to a dignified transfer

White supremacy won’t end until white people see it for what it is: a white issue.

Instead of how we’ve been framing it— a BIPOC issue that white people should empathize with.

Until we stop coddling our egos, and deconstruct our whiteness, we’ll never make progress.

You wouldn't think something this pathetic and telling would be attempted by any news organization, not even a news organization that agreed to pay $787 million in settlement money for making shit up out of whole cloth. I'm sure that this latest will produced some chastened reflection at Fox.

The leader of the protest was pardoned J6er Jake Lang.

This quote isnt just out of touch or disappointing, its fucking dark. Gay people are not a conversation parents need to have with their kids? Knowing gay people exist doesnt require therapy??

Any parents who thinks that way needs to have their kids removed ASAP. Get in a volcano, Pete.

I need every single male artist that follows me to read this. It's not very long. You need to bear witness to this shit. You have to see it with your own eyes because you never will in your everyday life.

I'm serious, read it all please

you do realize there are SCORES of books written by neurologists and philosophers and medical ethicists on this topic, yeah?

like i'm begging you people for one time in your life to crack open a book and READ
