This panel didn't call for food inserts in the script. I absolutely, as an artist, did this to myself. #comics

Anyway, a good guideline is if you see a swastika and it's in a cultural context that is NOT European or European colonialist, seems religious, or is before 1930s, it's probably not a nazi symbol. Also, just generally they really love that black swastika on white & red; pretty easy to spot.

Here's an example from my old neighborhood Logan Square of the pre-nazi swastika, a popular symbol for good luck in those years. It's such a strange feeling to randomly see buildings like these, reminding you just how recent and total the demeaning of this symbol was.

Repeating & "windmill" patterns are often swastika like, it's just a matter of the simplicity & usefulness of the design: you can't get away from it anymore than you can crosses, triangles, or any other basic shape. So you take care to keep it at a suitable level, so it won't look like nazi shit.

Okay, I'm going to subthread in on this post, and hopefully that will help with the hierarchy of this massive thread.

Let's talk about swastikas! Before the rise of the nazis, they were for thousands of years used as religious/magic symbols around the world (& remain *carefully* used as such today)

Two of these will get you in trouble. Not only are the Hell's Angels litigious (lol), but at least back in the day, you'd get your ass kicked for having an MC tat w/o being in the MC. The Willie G is copyrighted by Harley and will get you sued!

The Jolly Roger is one of many pirate flag designs.

The "Totenkopf" or SS Death's Head, etc: similar to German Empire skulls. A very specific design marked by a 3/4 positioning of the skull with the leg bones tucked behind it. Not all nazi skulls look like this, but the 3/4 pos. is notable, addl symbols are often used with a plain skull (ss, knives).

SKULLS

You should never get a skull anything without knowing its origins. The more it's NOT a standard halloween skull, the more chance it has specific symbolism. Images below: Totemkopf, Hell's Angels, Willie G, Jolly Roger

lets do some breakdowns:

I have no idea how obscure this is, other than when I say it I usually have to explain :3
October 1, 2025 at 10:13 PM
Can't remember why I did this,either,lol
September 23, 2025 at 12:35 AM
I still can't remember why I made this.

We need to shun using AI for "resist slop." 1: it's a theft machine that wrecks the environment, 2: it doesn't have the juice of a shitty drawing or hasty photomanip, example: this was so much petty fun & the tiny Eric was pure happy accident. Haterade you don't make yourself isn't even anything.

Their habits are the colors of the eggs because that would be gross, they are also wet, also because gross.
