Thought I’d re-up this PSA now that Antifa is going to be labeled a *foreign* terrorist group.

This photo going around is NOT REAL. It’s from a joke TikTok posted in January. Please PLEASE be diligent in fact checking before spreading false information, especially when it is sensational. It only damages our credibility to let rumors spread unchecked. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8A2jDq3/ #ice #chicago

Looking back, I can trace a direct line from doing pixel art to doing cross-stitch patterns. The cross-stitching took me back to my love of embroidery. And the thing that got me into doing pixel art was doing Perler beads with my daughter and wanting to explore the boundaries of a "kids" medium.
Minimalist album covers made from Perler beads: Nevermind, Cuz I Love You, Sea Change, Evil Empire, Smells Like Children, Dark Side of the Moon, London Calling, Born in the USA, Igor Perler bead design of Enoch from Over the Garden Wall, with the caption "What a Wonderful Harvest" Messy table showing an in-progress perler bead design Perler bead art of the Interceptor from Mad Max Fury Road

Pixel art of Audrey II with the caption "feed ur plants, baby" Pixel art of Leatherface with the caption "don't mess with Texas" Pixel art of Cujo with the caption "They're all good dogs, Brent" Pixel art of Norman Bates with the caption "Mama's Boy"

Good morning! I am back with some more #art --or "art" if you're a snob. For a while last year I got really into #pixelart and started on a project to render all the iconic #horror movie villains I could in a series called Bitty Baddies.

Finished piece! (exciting because I am so bad at finishing anything.) This is one of my first forays into stitching on printed fabric in harmony with the design. Embellished with metallic thread and Czech glass beads.

Just need to add a ribbon for hanging #embroidery

National Military Establishment President Truman signs the National Security Act Amendment of 1949. After the end of World War II, President Harry Truman proposed the creation of a unified department of national defense. In a special message to the Congress on 19 December 1945, the president cited wasteful military spending and interdepartmental conflicts. Deliberations in Congress went on for months focusing heavily on the role of the military in society and the threat of granting too much military power to the executive. On 26 July 1947, Truman signed the National Security Act of 1947, which established the National Military Establishment (NME) and created the National Security Council, National Security Resources Board, United States Air Force, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The NME was placed under the control of the new post of secretary of defense. The National Military Establishment formally began operations on 18 September, the day after the Senate confirmed James V. Forrestal as the first secretary of defense.[13] The National Military Establishment was renamed the "Department of Defense" on 10 August 1949, and absorbed the three cabinet-level military departments, in an amendment to the original 1947 law. The renaming is alleged to be due to the Establishment's abbreviation, NME, being pronounced "enemy."
