Honey Bear is too close. He is Beach People Dog. We must persevere against the Beach People.

Couple more Bloodborne OC pics to go with the last one! Lots of character design concept work, including a picture of him as an asylum patient prior to his partial transformation.

Bloodborne OC art! The lyrics in the picture are from an old English folk song and carol called "Down in yon Forest."

This is unfortunate as FIYAH is one of the best to do it. And a stark reminder to writers out there that the majority of mags operate on passion—Anathema never made a cent, and whatever we made from crowdfunding went to the writers and artists alone. Operating costs were ours to shoulder.

Can't wait for this scene in the new movie

Museum practices of fetishisation, exotification, dispossession and display have led me to reflect on the role of a museum in society. If we are to decolonise (refuse dehumanisation), what part of these new worlds will the museum play? Can the museum be decolonised? folukeafrica.com/reflections-...

No take backs applies even to knighthoods—Page Artist @endrae.bsky.social tells us she was knighted by accident, but we think her moody, atmospheric pieces would have earned her one anyway!

Two officers who defended the Capitol against the Jan 6 rioters just sued to block Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund. Check out their standing argument, it's pretty interesting:

Memphis is “under full-blown occupation” by ICE. Here’s why you may not know that.

congratulations, graduates. i'm honored to speak at your commencement. this is a proud moment for you, your family, and your friends. the future is in your hands. and the most important task of the future is to feed the Gaping Maw (students start booing, one student yells "fuck the gaping maw")

A step-by-step guide for scientists who hate conference networking idp.nature.com/authorize?re... If the thought of ‘working’ a room packed with strangers fills you with dread, academic careers coach Caroline Dunne has some advice.

Going to be tough to incentivize people to buy your consoles to play your new, fancy single-player games when one now costs $650

it is possible to not have to entirely rely on excess capital of the idle rich and begging them for scraps to make art, though of course theres nothing against anyone who has to do that!

soooo much of the art you love exists because someone somewhere convinced one of the most abhorrent rich people on the planet to invest money into something that ideologically denies their worldview. that's the lot of commercial art!

I don’t know what to tell you, man. I’m a medieval historian, and, in my field, if you don’t check your sources (and your sources’ sources) you are just asking to be taken for a ride by some bored 19th C. aristocratic English antiquarian with a penchant for inventing history.

Just a little PSA- Neil Gaiman has reactivated his Bluesky account. Because he deactivated before a lot of people could unfollow him, and/or because Bluesky doesn’t remove you from a person’s followers when you block them, a LOT of you are still publicly listed as following him. You should check.

Did you feed your soul & go block Neil Gaiman's reactivated account on here since he has the nerve to show his face as a disgusting rapist so craven & devoid of morals he's demanding a literal half a billion from his rape victim now? I just did. It nourished me like yoga.

And how did I deal with the problem of one of the sources being in Greek (which I don't speak) and the other in Sanskrit (of which my knowledge is only moderate)? Colleagues and other experts. That's how. I asked other experts.

I'm sorry, what? In writing my first monograph, I spent six weeks trying to track down a citation in TWO languages I didn't know. And good thing too, because the citation was wrong. That's scholarship. That's research. You know, the thing we're trained to do?!?

A surprising amount of what made the USA a functional country was put into place during the very brief period where white southerners didn't have the ability to veto it

Worth noting that most of the people who say Bluesky is dead or useless are journalists, not organizers. Bluesky has been OUTSTANDING for me as an organizer. I've raised THOUSANDS of dollars here, gotten HUNDREDS of people to actual events, gotten LOADS of people to DO POLITICAL THINGS.

Also from 3/4 months ago, my art block has been so annoying but I’m happy with this one I started after my undead ranger visited their body’s old room, inherited her jewelry, and then almost got kidnapped :-) #thehotmesses #dndart #dnd #art #ocsky #elfenjoyers

Academic departments deserve to be saved, supported, resourced, allowed to grow even if they're not "best in the country," "first in the REF," "top-ranked," "at a Russell Group uni," or whatever other austerity-brained nonsense senior managers have been using to flimflam you out of solidarity

Sometimes I wake up knowing I’m going to get kicked in the face, but I get up and go anyway, because other people are counting on me and the course of their lives depends on it. “Public Defense Is Basically Like Being At War” is both my most unpopular and also most true opinion.

i'm not sure how to reconcile the fact that posts on the website i primarily use to post about video game yaoi also apparently have a responsibility to maintain a certain standard of political discourse lest the country fall to ruin from inadequate posting
