a donkey crucified

the earliest depiction of Christ’s crucifixion is among the ruins of a Roman palace turned messenger boy’s school - a student mocking one of his Christian classmates with a doodle of a boy praying to a donkey-headed figure on a cross captioned β€œAlexamenos worshipping his God”

I'm looking to speak to voice actors/voice directors for a feature I'm working on. If you're an actor/director interested in chatting about your work, or a PR with an opportunity to talk to some actors, get in touch at rick@ricklane.co.uk. Reposts appreciated.

Do I know artists who work in an 18th century style of illustration who might take on a modest proposal (so to speak)?

(would love to see portfolios)

Today in Blades in the Dark: the Leech was AWOL, the Slide made a tentative deal with a demon, and went to Bazso Baz to find out more, and maybe make a deal to kill Lysa. The Lurk tried to reconnect with an old friend hurt in the fire, and make a deal with an old aunt about their vampire problem.

PANEL 1: A cat in smoking in bed with an ashtray on its chest. CAT: "We tell kids 'Be Yourself' but what we mean is 'Be a You that is a Self I Will Like'"

PANEL 2: The cat is now bundled up and walking outside. CAT: "This country loves individuality when it means I won't vote or join a union. Less so when it means I need a special diet, I get tired easy, or I refuse my role in a genocide."

PANEL 3: The cat is now eating a burger. CAT: "We have enough Rome in us that a child is PRIVATE PROPERTY of the father here. And here THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT. EVERYTHING is on the table for you to bend and break a child to your vision. The parent as first consumer."

PANEL 4: The cat is lighting another cigarette. CAT: "'Be yourself' more like a wish than a commandment, then. 'I want to seem like the kind of person who's accepting of your messy self, but let's still have service with a smile, kiddo.' That's how I learned it, anyway."
