Happy Summer Solstice Again haven’t had the chance to draw something new for the Summer Solstice :(

cruelty is so easy. youre not special for choosing it

"The trouble is that we have a bad habit, encouraged by pedants and sophisticates, of considering happiness as something rather stupid. Only pain is intellectual, only evil interesting. This is the treason of the artist; a refusal to admit the banality of evil and the terrible boredom of pain."

-Ursula K. LeGuin, The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas

"Evil is boring. Right? I kinda believe in the banality and mundaneness of evil. Evil is just selfish impulses, which at the end of the day are really easy to understand. It’s easy to understand why people do bad things. It’s like “yeah, ok, you’re selfish and scared and cruel, I get it”. Being good is complex and beautiful and hard." - Brennan Lee Mulligan

“Imaginary evil is romantic and varied; real evil is gloomy, monotonous, barren, boring. Imaginary good is boring; real good is always new, marvelous, intoxicating.”

- Simone Weil

support ALL fat women, not just the ones with hourglass figures and smooth skin. support fat women with apron bellies, with small boobs, with flat butts, with visible rolls, with arm flaps, with thick necks, with no jawline, with “multiple” chins. support fat women with big shoulders, fat women who’s waists don’t go in, who have stretch marks on their armpits and arms and stomach, not just on their chest and thighs or butts or “attractive” places.

support disabled fat women. support fat women of color. support fat trans women. support fat women when they wear crop tops and low rise jeans and bikinis and support fat women when they wear hijab and abayas. support fat women who are advocates and support fat women who are just trying to live their lives in peace

not just the women you’re attracted to. not just the ones you find “palatable”, not just the ones who are “thick”. all of us.

breaking news we have discovered the demiurge. Turns out it was a little bug on the ground. it had no idea it even had a job

PLEASE. CONSIDER CHECKING IT OUT.... IT'S ABOUT MAKING A LIFE WORTH LIVING EVEN IN DIRE CIRCUMSTANCES. IT'S ABOUT COPING WITH BEING PAINFULLY OTHERED. IT'S ABOUT LOVE & PEACE...

...AND IT IS MY PERSONAL FAVORITE OF THE 3 VERSIONS OF TRIGUN THAT EXIST BY FAR...

-despite everything, there is still love

enough about the eroticism of cannibalism what about the eroticism of parasitism. this is our body because i live in you.
