Bob McCall’s promo art for 1968’s 2001: A Space Odyssey is a wonder in itself. This example was printed in Italy as an oversized lobby card. I do wish I had a copy myself.

I feel like Los Angeles is a place where people expect ICE to happen because the kidnappings have been happening to my home city for decades, so there’s less media attention to it now. and I want folks to see that in LA, Latine students are organizing major protests & the police are attacking them
LAPD Charges at Hundreds of High School Students in Peaceful Walkout Protest at MDC ~ L.A. TACO
LAPD arrested at least two teenagers protesting ICE raids in Los Angeles yesterday. They were also seen corresponding with ICE agents on Alameda Street during the demonstrations.

Oh wow this is incredible interesting - I had no idea this was a thing.
The story goes like this, in 1967 a little girl called Takara’s customer service number, and asked to speak to Licca-chan.

Not wanting to crush a little kid’s dreams, the operator quickly replied “Hello, this is Licca-chan!”

Very cute, totally harmless. …right?

Commission from 10+ years ago of Liege Maximo.
At the time, only the G2 version existed, and his face, if he had one, was always shrouded in black shadow, so I had to make a lot of the details up.

Thought it worth sharing, since the new toy has similarly filled out the face.

This was the shot that inspired my interpretation of this theme, and something I just stumbled across as I was heading to the tube station. I'm glad I always carry my camera around my neck.

It’s cameo o’clock, comics community! I’m working on something BIG, and I’d be honored to feature your indie comics character in a small cameo! Also, really looking to diversify the set list of creators! All you need is:
- a previously published indie super character
- you owning 100% of the rights

Here's the first 2 things I ever posted online on DeviantArt waaaaay back in the ass-end of 2004, made 3D model mockups as a base in 3D studio Max and then did all the actual lines and colours in MACROMEDIA (lol) Flash.

I'm so old, lol.

ABOLISH LEGAL GENDER ENTIRELY

We can still have social gender but legal gender only serves to enable discrimination and should be done away with like we did away with legal race for the same reason.
NO GENDER MARKERS ON GOVERNMENT ID, NOW
An extreme Kansas bill will invalidate the drivers license of every trans person in the state. It was passed alongside a particularly extreme bathroom bill, meaning that the implications of every trans Kansan losing legal ID overnight has largely been missed.
