Ô Alemanha, é assim que faz ó: #IrritatorBelongstoBR

it appears plagiorizer William Toosey tries his shit again, that's my Propalorchestes in his "Journey through the Cenozoic". I suspect this is just the tip of it. Many of these are just other people's work with a new texture slapped on top. Lots of JRC art here.

I have come to the idea that we have to collectively, brutally, ritualistically kill Target just to show capital that we truly aren’t fucking around.

Fun fact, a lot of wonderful scientific illustrations you see in the 19th century natural science publications, were done by women, usually spouses of the researchers as uncredited free labour. The famous finches, came from John Gould, his wife, Elizabeth, illustrated his ornithology books.

Damien Hirst's giant Verity sculpture (20.2 m tall, 25 tonnes) at Ilfracombe in north Devon was installed in 2012. Verity is flensed on one side, her organs and unborn child exposed. She stands on a pile of books and holds a sword aloft. A thrill to see in person, which we did in 2023.
