The characters over the garden wall, meet the characters from the last unicorn

In the shadow of the forest, though she may be old and worn,
They will stare unbelieving
At the last unicorn 🦄 🎼

Japan's "Mundane Halloween" costume contest is back!

Each year website DailyPortalZ holds a contest where people dress up as something super duper ordinary.

Here's a thread of some of my favorites from the 2025 contest!

Great job, everyone, we did it again

No thought November

A woman in a long black dress stands in front of a stone pillar and greenery. Her hair is down to her shoulders and it is red and orange. She wears purple Converse with bedazzled toes.

One of my oldest dearest friends had an incredible Hallowedding, I loved being her MOH, and like yeah she was cute and all but look at ME for a second!!

A pale woman with long flowing black hair frames her as she holds a skull with a kiss mark.

A woman holds three girls in her hand and she cradles them with a gentle smile. She wears a dark gown and has a veil over her face. Her hair is done up in beads and a braided bun.

Two elves posing near each other intimately. the pink elf has a cigarette in her hand.

Leora in her void form is grabbing a star that emits orange flame. The text reads: star catcher.

Back in my day, AI used to stand for Adobe Illustrator! And we hated that, too!

Yes yes yes. A reminder that it is normal and expected to have periods of growth, periods of rest, and periods of doubt.

Not the cadmium orange!

ok i still like this possession sketch i did years ago

The original Far Side Cow Tools Cartoon by Gary Larson. A cow stands on its hind legs behind a table, staring blankly at the viewer from behind its heavy brow ridge. On the table are four crudely made tools: a lump, a lump with an offset crooked handle, a long stick with hooked prongs at the end, and a crude handsaw with irregular teeth. In the background a barn sits on a hill. Caption reads, "Cow tools."

43 years ago today, readers the world over opened their newspapers and gazed upon cow tools for the first time. happy birthday cow tools. you look great.

Marc Lobliner post on X: "Why the hell are we giving food stamps to 40 million people? Does anyone work anymore?"

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps:

* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages

Onion on the decking with crusty eyes, waiting for a treat

Onion zoning out in the herb patch, looking like a scared kitten

Onion with his back to me, looking up into the hedge

Good morning except to Onion, who refused my offer of shelter from the icy rain and insisted on a garden tour complete with big leaps over the herb patch, running away from my cough like a scared kitten and hiding in his Trauma Hedge™. What a doofus 😭 #chonktent

An autumnal scene in a graveyard. There’s an avenue of trees and stone memorials. The ground is carpeted with autumn leaves.

An autumnal scene in a graveyard. There are trees in autumn colours. There is a sunburst at the top of one of the memorials.

An autumnal scene in a graveyard. There is a tree in the distance with autumn colours. In the foreground are memorials with a sunburst at the top of the nearest one.

A photo of a simple wooden cross in a graveyard with a poppy near the base. The photo is monochrome, except for the poppy which is red.

I took my DSLR for a walk round the very peaceful Dean Cemetery yesterday. The autumn colours were fabulous. I was touched by the wee wooden cross with the poppy between all the stone monuments.

To say I was OBSESSED with this fella growing up is an understatement. Dread and fascination to the max.

A painting of the gate from a decaying village. Pumpkins are growing in front of the gate's walls, a woman is carrying a lamp waiting at the door. A character with a top at in the foreground is still, watching at the gate. The mood is orange, moody, atmospheric and a bit eery, mysterious.

Waiting at the gate

The only truly ethical response that a self-described artist can make. Anything else is a betrayal of one's colleagues.
