This is an acrylic painting I started over a year ago and dithered on it for far too long, but I finally finished it tonight! No name for it yet. And no, I did not use AI! #art #painting #skeleton #goth #gothic #skull #Halloween #weird #star #tentacles #acrylic

A close up on the details of a painting of a black skull on a silver and white background. The skull is adorned with subtle, glittery, and intricate patterns painted by hand.

An image of a painting of the skull, neck and shoulders of a black skeleton looking at a black star on a silver background while the black star radiates white lines. There are also tentacles surrounding the skeleton, as well as a shimmering purple and black feathery border. The skeleton and tentacles feature intricate and subtle details in glittering patterns.

Why is fascism right-wing?

4 frame comic. a guy with a red cap asks Stephie : stop saying that
fascism is a right-
wing thing. what
about stalin or mao?
checkmate, leftist.

she replies :
authoritarianism
isn't a synonym of fascism.
fascism is ultra-nationalist,
whereas communism, with or
without the authoritarianism,
is against any form of
nationalism.

fascism is a conservative
ideology obsessed with
national purity that teams
up with big businesses to
maintain itself in power.
that's why it's considered
far-right.
but why do you care so
much? do you think fascism
would suddenly become
acceptable to left-wingers
if it had a leftist spin to it?
sounds like something that
someone who finds fascism
acceptable would think.

I guess eventually I had to talk about Star Trek's stupid space hippie episode. My video all about it is now public, please share!

The thumbnail for my video on Star Trek's "The Way to Eden." Annoying space hippies sing folk songs while Kirk screams in the foreground.

2 panel comic

Panel 1: Purple Guy dressed in a black suit giving a eulogy at a funeral. We see the coffin and flowers behind him.

Purple Guy: Sometimes when a person dies, others will say “if you can’t say something nice, don’t say nothing at all”

Panel 2: Purple Guy: But that’s bullshit and this guy was a fucking cunt

Omg I’m dying 😂😂😂…so…So Emily Austin, a right wing 'influencer' who works for Bibi and the GOP, launched 'Hot Girls for Cuomo'.

Guess who didn't bother to register the URL when she did that? What do you think Hot Girls for Cuomo dot com leads to now?... 😄 Enjoy.

It's been my experience that almost everyone who says to me "don't talk to me like that!", talks to ME like that ALL. THE. TIME.

Exododus sounds like some late 1990s point & click mystery adventure game. In fact (opens GIMP, delves into very old CGI files I made 20 years ago). You're welcome.

An image of a fake point & click adventure game. It features a strange, scifi early 2000s CGI landscape with a glittering white city, a lake, and a half-burried, mossy statue. Text at the top reads "Exododus" while text at the bottom reads "A multiversal mystery adventure game"

Behold my life size Enoch prop! I set this up for my Halloween party that I held last week. You'll also note the Pottsfieldian I also made that's sitting at Enoch's base. I have another Pottsfieldian I'm working on, but they weren't done in time. #OverTheGardenWall #Enoch #Halloween

There is so little real justice in this world. So if you can, enjoy the fact that Trump is one of the most miserable people alive.

Look at that closeup: a rictus of pain, confusion, anger, paranoia, exhaustion. Rapidly increasing illness and dementia. And it’s only gonna get worse for him.
