Imagine you can't afford basic electricity and no longer have a readily available source of drinkable water because some cretin needs constant validation from an LLM Jesus LARP.
A screenshot of the iTunes app store, of the app "Talk with Jesus", with a white background, a square cartoonish portrait of Jesus with a chat bubble from his mouth on the left. With the title to the right of that as "Text with Jesus", under that is gray text saying "AI-Powered Devine Chats". Under that is the blue circular Get icon, noting next to it that there are In-App Purchases.

A custom Mamdani campaign sign. Yellowish text with an orange emphasis on a blue background that says "Guillotines" on the first line. And then below it. "For" in stylized text. And to the right of that "Billionaires" in a normal serif text.

An impoverished man behind bars, reaching out from between them with a stick. In front of him are a loaf of bread and a key (to his cell). He is reaching for the bread with the stick. Below that is the text: "IF YOU KEEP THEM BUSY WITH BASIC NEEDS, THEY WILL FORGET ABOUT THE FREEDOM THEY LOST."

Went to the closest one to my house. At 11:30am there were already hundreds lined up at the cross streets and extending down several blocks. I didn't stay very long since I'm sick right now, but it was nice to see everyone coming out. Lots of different people. My signs were less cuddly than others.
Cross streets with a slight crowd in the near and middle distance, holding signs, and on the far side of the street, there are dozens of people holding signs and flags. A shot down the street, showing dozens of people holding signs and flags on each side. One of my signs. A white foam board on a wood floor, with black text written on it. The text says "All monarchs are usurpers and descendants of usurpers." One of my signs. A white foam board on a wood floor, with black text written on it. The text says "Awareness of fascism without action is acceptance of fascism."

A child Bruce Wayne kneeling before the bodies of his slain parents. Which is the joke.

Watching the crowd in professional sports have given me the insight that evidently:

Men stress out Women stress out
Like this. Like this
A man stressing out with downcast face, closed eyes, and tented hands over his nose. A woman with hopeful up cast face, with mouth open, and hands clasped in front of her chest in prayer like fashion.

Can't stop, won't stop
(Not what that says)
A sign in an elevator which says in Japanese "この階には止まりません。" Or "Kono kai ni ha tomarimasen". In English below it, it says "This floor can't stop." Which is incorrect. It should (obviously) say "This doesn't stop on this floor" or "No stopping on this floor."

Thanks, Amazon. I forgot to reorder the outdoor vegetable soup mix.
The very helpful screen in the Amazon app where it asks you to buy things again that you've previously purchased. In the section for Sports and Outdoors, it lists inline wheels, softballs, softball socks, hockey stick blade covers, and...... a box of vegetable soup mix.

You say that like all furbys aren't cursed, Eldritch happenings from beyond our understanding. (I've realized almost all of my comments on your stuff have been furby jokes and I honestly don't know why, because I've never owned one. I think it's funny though so why stop now. Your art is great btw)
A white furby in repose, its antlers resplendent, as it reclines its long body on a green chair. Its horrible legs crossed in leisure before its clawed hands.

Oh look, these hanging Space Bags come with their own Harry Potter spell.
A shot of the corner of a transparent garment bag with labels on it saying "Suit Hanging" and then below it "Costumes Suspendus" (French Translation). Which is the joke.

If I thought Republicans could read, I'd think he might've just finished Cage of Souls - which takes place in a prison/asylum so deep in a deadly unearthly jungle that it doesn't even need that many actual guards, because you will be killed inside or nature will kill you if you attempt escape.
Cover of Adrian Tchaikovsky's novel Cage of Souls.

A 50's era depiction of a white young man and woman on a hill in front of a land covered in factories pouring smoke into the sky, with a predator drone flying above shooting missiles, below the text "BOMBING POOR BROWN PEOPLE IN THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES TO PROTECT OUR WAR INDUSTRY! PROFITS OVER PEOPLE! IT'S THE AMERICAN WAY YOU COMMIE!"

Something must be done. About vengeance, a badge and a gun.

DO NOT do this to stop police violence. 1. Do not buy party balloons from a supermarket 2. Do not mix paint with water 3. Do not attend marches for peace with party balloons and a paint-water mixture 4. Do not fill party balloons with this mixture 5. Do not throw paint-filled balloons at the police to disable their vision, particularly targeting their visors, shields and vehicle windscreens Do not use this five-step method to seriously disable the police's ability to beat you and inflict grievous bodily harm on you for standing against a genocide. And DO NOT spread this message to protestors attending marches or college campuses where police are known to use disproportionate violence in the name of empire
