Thanks for the nice surprise today.
I was listening to a lot of Doomtree. Before I was politically conscious I was still in love with the theme of prey animals defeating the predators.
Graphic artist Adam Garcia did the sick lettering on the EP:
Mixed media: graphite and digital. watermark says JONATHANVAIR.COM Two vertical images split hot-dog style. Both are sepia and featuring anthro art. Left: portrait of an anthropomorphic rabbit with cracks in their face, green spraypaint on their right eye, and stylized marks around the paint disrupting the continuity of the surrounding fur and whiskers. Right: Waist-up of two characters. A wolf man in a leather jacket and shirt looks directly ahead at the viewer. In his shadow is a gazelle woman with cracks in her face stylized to match fur patterns, with subtle disruptive marks cracking and almost dripping onto her dark sweatshirt. She has pink spraypaint on her face. The two characters' bodies merge together in a tangent, as if their relationship to each other is uncomfortably and impossibly enmeshed.

stress how this is hurting your opinion of these brands, and making you consider dropping them/ getting a different card
Both Visa and Mastercard are really going to push the idea that "they dont restrict any legal transactions" when you call
you need to call out how paypros restrictions arent on the transaction, but on the way they are pressuring platforms to drop/censor content that they have decided is verboten

If someone told you, "The things I love from (your favorite printmaker) I also love in your work," you would still feel insulted?

Other times the comparison is so shallow, like, "This character is green and so is this shirt I'm wearing now."
To which I'll respond, "You are correct. :)"

"Your artwork reminds me of _________" is a compliment if the artist loves _________ and likely an insult if the artist doesn't like _________.
It's polite to know in advance whether or not the artist would enjoy that comparison. If you don't know, just compliment the art on its own merit.
Digital painting, an anthro wolf has some gender. They're standing attentively, palms pressed together and tail and ears lifted, looking off to the right. Surrounding them are many rich textures, splatters, and abstract shapes, including a planet-like circle behind the head.

You actually checked! That's so considerate. People can share my work as long as the more sensitive stuff isn't separated from their respective artist statements.
I am bad at uploading my own art because of how much I hate social media.
Thanks for sharing the art and context with everyone, T! This illustration means a lot to me, too.

It depicts an anthropomorphic creature in a bit of a fetal position with flames, to me it symbolizes rebirth. The illustration itself has stunning and bold strokes and colors, the figure is mainly orioles and cyans with the flame light touching certain parts and the rest of the piece is yellow and orange hues
The power is out
And I was staring at the art pieces I have in my home
I am lucky enough to have a beautiful large metal print of this illustration: Temple

This is maybe my favorite contemporary piece by one of my favorite contemporary artists
Thank you
I have found Youtube's "Watch Later" feature useful too. Thanks for getting in on your to-do pile. <3

Let's internalize these issues and build a fandom beyond audism! (auditory-based discrimination)
I know it's easier to reblog a "N@zifurs Fck Off" post than watch and learn from a video. But I really can't stress enough how the content in this video will give you an exit from doomscrolling AND help you avoid wasting time around politics in general. Peace to y'all.ποΈ
