Came across one of my favourite ads on the back of a comic book today and flashed back to 1998 so hard that I may still be in it.

(Got Milk ft. Sarah Michelle Gellar)
A GOT MILK? ad from 1998, featuring Sarah Michelle Gellar in a black coat with a lacy corseted top peeking through. The text reads, "Revealing outfits and the undead. What else can't most young guys get enough of? Calcium. But there is a mouth-watering solution. Milk. It can help provide the calcium growing bones need to stay strong. A real must. Especially if you plan on sticking your neck out. MILK Where's your mustache?"

The positions were due to be phased out since 2018, when the library decided to no longer hire part-time librarians.

I thought just reading the headlines was bad but ai has invented a totally new level of bad.
The article is about the effects of politically motivated cuts to colleges and research programs.
It's about cuts to cancer research & how that funding gap cannot be filled.

Ai summary of an article wrongly stating that Harvard professors agree with Trump that colleges are a liberal mess. Summary implies Dr. Liu (pictured) said this but it is an unrelated quote from Steven Pinker. Steven Pinker is quoted as saying defunding colleges is a mistake.

An illustration from the children's book series Brambly Hedge by Jill Barklem. It features a mouse-like character holding a pair of green, wing-like garments on hangers. The character is standing in a room with a wooden door and two framed pictures, and a large, bat-like shadow is cast on the wall behind it.

QUEEN OF SWORDS #tarot
-watercolor and ink on paper
QUEEN OF SWORDS #tarot -watercolor and ink on paper 63rd tarot from the 78 card square-o tarot deck i made 5 years ago for my 20202020 ( @floatingworld.bsky.social ) daily drawing book where all cards first appeared in https://floatingworldcomics.com/shop/art-books/20202020-by-farel-dalrymple Based off the old Pamela Colman Smith card: a woman in blue wearing a crown, and holding a sword in her right hand, her whole body is emerging from clouds. from the wikipedia: * The Queen of Swords traditionally corresponds to the roles of widow, crone, and divorcée. She is seen to have very high standards and can be highly critical of herself and others * The contemporary Queen of Swords may represent positive feminist traits such as self-sufficiency, independence, and intelligence. * The position of the Queen of Swords in a reading is relevant to the card's interpretation. If the card appears in a future position, the queen could be "showing you the way," wrote Mary K. Greer, author of "21 Ways to Read a Tarot Card" (Llewellyn, 2008) and other Tarot-related books. Greer encourages divinatory tarot practitioners to avoid fixating on gender roles matching biological sex; a queen might represent the querent's father, for example. * The Queen of Swords is extending her hand, perhaps to reach for another; but she also holds her sword firmly before her, perhaps as a warning, a self-protection or a test for another. The Pictorial Key to the Tarot, or PKT notes that she is familiar with sorrow. * Some interpret the queen's hand held out in front as a signifier of putting thoughts into action. All the sword cards represent the mind and the element of air all the skyscapes will indicate the "emotion" of the card. The clouds low on the horizon in this card can be read as suggesting new ideas or a new enterprise.

Please admire this Ghüs I adopted ages ago from @leiladelduca.bsky.social!
Framed original watercolour painting of the character Ghüs from the comic series “Saga”! He’s a white bipedal seal wearing yellow overalls, looking joyfully into the distance!

Goodnight.
🖼️ Francisco Fonseca
Sleepless Nights by Francisco Fonseca. Painting depicts a dense, winding town at night, with most of the houses dark. A single window in the centre of the image is brightly illuminated, suggesting one person is awake while the rest of the town is asleep.

Goodnight. Sweet dreams.
🖼️ The Dream, Fritz Schwimbeck, 1909.
An illustration by Fritz Schwimbeck (1889-1972) which depicts a dark, arched stone hallway or corridor, rendered in a detailed, scratchy, black-and-white style. A hunched figure, holding a dagger-like object, is shown in silhouette, moving toward a brightly lit, open doorway at the end of the hall. The figure casts a large, distorted shadow on the wall to the right.

NINE OF SWORDS #tarot
NINE OF SWORDS #tarot -watercolor and ink on paper 59th tarot from the 78 card square-o tarot deck i made 5 years ago for my 20202020 ( @floatingworld.bsky.social ) daily drawing book where all cards first appeared in https://floatingworldcomics.com/shop/art-books/20202020-by-farel-dalrymple Based off the old Pamela Smith card. The Nine of Swords is a Minor Arcana tarot card, also known as the Lord of Cruelty. This card often shows a figure sitting up in bed. The illustration represents pain from within resulting from worry, guilt, and pure anguish. Divination usage If this card is shown in an upright position, it can mean deception, premonitions and bad dreams, suffering and depression, cruelty, disappointment, violence, loss and scandal. However, all of these may be overcome through faith and calculated inaction. This is the card of the martyr and with it comes new life out of suffering. This card can represent being plagued by fear, guilt, doubt, and worries that are to a large extent, unfounded. Chances are the person in question is dealing with a problematic situation or a difficult decision, but his or her worst fear is unlikely to materialize. If the card is shown in an ill-dignified or reversed manner then it has a different meaning. When turned this way it means distrust, suspicion, despair, misery or malice. Total isolation away from comfort and help: institutionalization, suicide, imprisonment and isolation. However, in a generally positive spread, the reversed meaning of this card can also indicate that the nightmare may be ending. The nine of swords reversed can actually be a hopeful card, counselling faith in the future and the promise of better days ahead.
