I hate to be a history lesson but ai generation is not a neutral thing, and polluters hit impoverished black and brown communities first. it is threaded into white supremacy, using it threads you in too
actually quite sad that alison bechdel used ai to make a comic with no consequences from the comics community at large. accountability works in all directions.
Evening refinery from NORCO in Aseprite.

they should never have let an irishman play orpheus in hadestown because no one else can top the desperation & longing & grief & deep, unwavering love & broken trust etc.
you need to get awkwarder pets. they're funny and you don't know what to do with them ever.
one pic of johnny that comes to mind is a time he reached out (awkwardly) & clawed onto my friend's foot. ???
"awkward pics of your pets only" some of you do not have awkward pets
i only tweet about music on here lately. it's because I like to do that
I hate sharing a moon sign with mitski.
OW!
SOPHIE is eternal. listen to do it yves remix 2 minutes and 35 seconds in ok?
megan thee stallion released my favorite album of 2022 after being fucking shot. I think i can get up from what ails me, probably whatever ails me
ICE is on bluesky now so I might shit all of my thoughts into a diary and leave this place
graphic design has ruined comics for me. I use rulers now
are you out in these 22° streets in a tshirt only
Nancy Drew on the case (she's in the public domain now!)
it's a payment beer it's a shower plan
using my eyeglass repair kit to repair my eyeglasses instead of breaking into my 3DS to add a .cia file
anyway, if you wanted to analyze the mitski video yourself there's so many directions you could take that. I'm a textile freak so what stood out to me was the Victorian costuming. the architecture too. women have phones now, but they don't make em like they used to. really makes u think!
I wish I could instill in the COVID K-12 generation the glint of truth I've dedicated my life to chasing, which is that no analysis of something cooked up by someone else is any better than what you can do. and it's a skill you can improve at just like anything else
a pertinent/ironic set of lyrics is embedded in the song: "I keep thinking 'surely somebody will save me' / at every turn, I learn that no one will" I'm serious, apply this logic to your research and you will go far!!! I promise!! don't be intimidated!
analysis can GET deep but it doesn't need to start deep. what the fuck is it saying TO YOU? start there.
bleak comment on mitski's recent: "I need someone to make an analysis of this mv" YOU. you are someone. fuck. shit.
I didn't even watch for kendrick lol
what happens when your best friend is puerto rican is that you resign yourself to watching the super bowl halftime performance this year & crying
last year marked 10 years of a lifelong obsession with the mountain goats & this year marks 10 years of a lifelong obsession with carly rae jepsen. pretty cool of me to start liking these things 10 to 11 years ago
god I went to high school with some chuds. if I had to walk into a hs reunion & had to hear whatever they thought about a mother being shot in the face & a 6 month old baby being flashbanged both by ICE I might ███████████
If a man speaks the language of brute force, you can't come to him with peace. Why, good night! He'll break you in two, as he has been doing all along. If a man speaks French, you can't speak to him in German. If he speaks Swahili, you can't communicate with him in Chinese. You have to find out what this man speaks. And once you know his language, learn how to speak his language, and he'll get the point. There'll be some dialogue. You know the language the Klan speaks. It is a duty, it's your and my duty as human beings, it is our duty to our people, to organise ourselves and let the government know that if they don't stop that Klan, we'll stop it ourselves. So I don't believe in violence - that's why I want to stop it. And you can't stop it with love. So, we only mean vigorous action in self-defence and that vigorous action we feel we're justified in initiating by any means necessary. The press call us racist and people who are "violent in reverse." This is how they psycho you. They make you think that if you try to stop the Klan from lynching you, you're practising "violence in reverse."
Thinking of a few Malcolm x speeches as they tell people getting kidnapped in the streets by masked thugs to ‘remain calm’
