We need to kill this Blood-and-Soil Wokeness.

No, White people should not embrace neo-Paganism. Why should White people care what dead European shamans believed?

Your ancestry, your place of birth, your "ethnicity" -- none of that should dictate your religion or your identity.

Death to racialism.

“All Gore Goes, Too“ a Dimension 20 gore themed fanzine, headed by Yeehawpim, is out! Money go to the Canadian Blood Services.

Here is 1 of 4 I drew for it.

#d20 #dimension20 #fanzine #dropout #dropouttv #fanart #gore #twgore #cwgore #unsleepingcity
Risograh styled digital illustration of Pete Conlan from Dimension 20: The Unsleeping City season 2. Pete from the hips up is situated at the bottom of the image. He is leaning back smiling while with his left hand he pulls open his skin over his pec, the left side of his skull has fragmented and is floating away. Out of his top surgery scars and broken skull is a variety of fantastical creatures, objects, swirls, floating upward and swirling around an everything bagel.

Cloudward, Ho!
Episode 20 parody picture, The Brady Bunch.

Thank you for joining me in this artistic adventure into whatever my mind could come up with.

Dimension 20: Cloudward, Ho! fanart parodying The Brady Bunch show opening. Three x three rows of squares. In the top row is Samwell, Hatwell, and Wealwell. Middle row is Blanewell, "The Gotch Show", and Johnwell. Bottom row is Roywell, Longspot, and Maxwell. Wealwell is smirking dashingly while the others look serious and stoic. Though Hatwell is headbutting Samwell.

Yep they did. You can find more info on Wikipedia, but fun fact: I'm actually making a video about this topic that should be released later this year (once I'm done working on my keynote speech for Intelligent Speech 2026).

from the perspective of someone who might want to be president, the best time to run for the white house is now, not later. so if AOC is thinking about it — if the white house is her ambition — then her best bet is to throw her hat in the ring
You Know What? Maybe the Time Is Right for an AOC Presidential Bid
She’s only 36, and there’s a good argument that she should run for Senate and bide her time. But she also could be a formidable White House candidate.

Platner's dismissive comments about sexual assault in the military were so disgusting that a candidate who had experienced assault in the service dropped out to endorse Mills rather than risk Platner getting into the senate. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/progressiv...

You know how you'll run into people on the internet who say they're really into WH40k but if you ask them who they play they'll admit that they don't actually play the games, they just watch lore videos on youtube?

This is the politics equivalent of that

You know how the House Democrats are _that_ close to requiring ICE to follow the CONSTITUTION in getting judicial warrants for entering homes, but it's controversial? Let's both hope that Biss discovers a previously-unknown appetite for defying those holding his leash on that vote!

"For I do this as a kindness"

[OC: Nikola Graves - #FruitOfSin. #GraceHound #NewtsOCs]
Digital Illustration resembling an old, dark, grainy poster. It depicts a straw-haired figure kneeling in a darkened space, tied to a wooden beam which bears the shape of a cross. The rope is extending their arms upwards and encircling their torso as well. There are nails hammered into the rough wood as well. In the foreground, there is a figure in a hat and a long coat with hands in his pockets. The floor is painted in a large splatter of blood, some of it clinging to the figure’s arms and mouth as well. Their hair coated in the substance too. There are lifeless arms belonging to two separate people on the floor. In the left corner, there is a decorative title in red reading: Fruit of Sin. There is a border around the piece, done with a thin red line and the text, wrapping around the side of said border reads: “Those whom I love, I rebuke and discipline.” “So be earnest and repent” “That’s Revelations” “You’ll do best to remember it, Dog.” “For I do this as a kindness.”

🗺️🌍 Mittelafrika: Territorial Evolution of German Africa (1914-1925)

Rising triumphant during the Weltkrieg, the German Empire took its rightful claim over Africa after the Treaty of Versailles, and took it once more when the crimson banner flew across the British Empire.
