They're also working as an accountant so they can pay their bills and don't have the time to pump out piece after piece so if you want more "renaissance-level art" pay up like the Medici you think you are.
"people with renaissance-level art skills don't exist anymore" yes they do their username is something like 03748218_ and they spend all their time drawing pornography so deranged it'd kill hugh hefner a second time

Ol' Salty, Pirate Saltasaurus. A bit of silliness which became a personal favourite.

Existing disability services are deeply underfunded, aggressively audited, means-tested constantly, and can be labyrinthine to even access or maintain without assistance. As someone who spent two decades as a cog in that system, concerns about fraud are overblown compared to the real existing need.
Balancing "no person with a disability should be denied accommodations" with "it's important to discourage non-disabled people from pretending to be disabled to take advantage of these accommodations" is really difficult and I don't have a great answer for what anyone should do about it.

Slimer probably had the crazy fucking plugs while Ms. Piggy and the Looney Tunes had the 90s club shit

The Turtles definitely got the munchies with Garfield so he was both their pizza and Lasagna hookup for sure and gave them a discount

Alf is a straight freak. I have no idea what he took.
You just know it was snowing backstage during the filming of Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue.

LRT--that's why I don't compare shitty people to supervillains and consider "reality" a lot more simple than what makes a good plot.

the hardest part of writing politically charged fiction is that a good villain needs to be complex, cool and about as right as the protagonist; while evil people in real life are lame, cruel, childish morons motivated by greed or not wanting to look at minorities

Hey, look at this weird gargoyle from my town, isn't it neat? Supposedly it depicts a monkey that rescued a baby from a burning building, or so the stories go. I love this little guy.
