“Alt-Right Satanist”—oh no, we won’t be tolerating that fucking nonsense around here.

This is not a safe space for you.

Hi yes hello,

November is here and you gotta know that Vegas Vacation is still the best Vacation movie.

This has been a public service announcement.
a man is sitting in a car with the word vegas on the screen
Alt: Clark W. Griswold is in the backseat of limo with the window open. They are driving through Las Vegas and he is saying, "Vegas. Vegas. VEGAS." Really, you can hear it in your head.

We only rate dogs. This is spaghetti con salsiccia. Obviously has the noodles and the sausage, but is notably missing sauce. Please only send dogs. Thank you… 13/10 (IG: futrinka_tacsko)

Posting something a little different today, but another favourite of mine. I really want to get back into practicing studio portraiture. Lighting and directing people on how to pose has always been one of my shortcomings and improving on that is a goal for 2026

This is one of my favourite images because
a)Silver Surfer is one of my favourite comic book characters
b)The effect was created in camera and came out exactly how I envisioned it The only edits were removing the wire that was holding the fig up and level adjustments

Hasbro's GIJoe Classified Series Legacy Action Police Officer is an incredibly versatile figure that you can plug in to just about any action figure display.

One of the first photos I ever took and said to myself "damn,I took a nice photo". It was also the first photo I ever sold a print of. In a couple weeks I'm making my first attempt at selling prints at an art market, and even though it's my oldest piece it needed to be included

Something I enjoyed about Cuba was how brightly coloured the vehicles were. Clearly they are painted to hide years of wear and rust. But as a tourist, spotting all the unique vehicles was one of my favourite parts of the taking in the island.

If you're following me you probably already know that "antifa" is a boogey man manufactured by the administration as a catch-all for protestors. Please take a few minutes to read Sarah's insight into what that could mean for the future based on what it has meant in the past.
Before the Trump administration invented "Antifa", the government of Uzbekistan invented "Akromiya": sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/inventing-...

This is a series I'm working on as I gather appropriate figures. Simple portraits of classic toys on an 11x14 print. TMNT was the first one that I created. They will be available for purchase at the Things I'd Kill For art market on Nov 8th.
