Sad news about the maestro, Drew Struzan. Back in the early '90s when I was new to the business, I had a very lucky experience visiting him in his studio in Pasadena with a group of other artists. To this day, I am amazed at the originals I got to look at that day.

RIP, sir.

Drew Struzan, the King of the Movie Poster, Has Died The beloved artist, who illustrated iconic posters for 'Star Wars', 'Indiana Jones', 'Back to the Future', and more, was 78.

Status report, "Fabuloue Stuff" dep't: This whole series of SudwestRundfunk films on handcrafts ("How to Make a [Fill In The Blank]") is terrific, but this one, on Black Forest cakes, is unusually revelatory. 😀 youtu.be/My-fVT-XOvs...

A lot of folks struggle with this idea:

If you turn some quality into an assault on people you don't like, you have communicated to the people you *do* like who have that quality that the only thing protecting them from the same treatment is that you favor them... and that's bigotry in a nutshell.

A view of the back of an1890s dress showing the bodice with clusters of oranges woven into the fabric. It has black lace on the sleeves and a high collar

Full length view of the front of the 1890s dress patterned with oranges and trimmed with black lace

It took a highly sophisticated Jacquard weave to create the incredibly detailed oranges that form the fabric of of this early 1890s dress. You can almost smell the citrusy peel. There so many details to observe here, the pattern matching, the cuff trim, the drama! #V&A #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

This thread highlights a point I have been making for many years: the logic of authoritarianism and the logic of domestic abuse are exactly the same. It is only a difference of scale.

kaiketsu zubat is the best example of a "strictly formula" show ever. every episode is exactly the same but also completely unpredictable. you gotta know what wacky duel he's getting into this time. who's gonna die in his arms???

A digital illustration of the character Moros from the video game Hades 2. The character is depicted from the waist up and from the side, staring thoughtfully towards the right side of the image. The illustration is in a painterly style but left unfinished at the bottom of the figure. The background is low contrast and depicts green branches and leaves.

Denmark wants to break the Council deadlock on the CSA Regulation, but are they genuinely trying? - European Digital Rights (EDRi) Denmark made the widely-criticised CSA Regulation a priority on the very first day of their Council presidency, but show little willingness to actually find a compromise that will break the three-year...

Wir stehen kurz vor einer erneuten Abstimmung im Rat.

And the long (German) thread on what is going on. This has been a three year uphill battle, thankful to see so much support now!
