Artists! Quote with your most detailed art!

Don't know if it is my *most* detailed ever, but close. It's an 'advertisement' in the style of a 1800s carnival poster, complete with the carnival proprietor's portrait in a cartouche. It was a teaser for my home group...who did indeed visit the faire...

This is sick! 😍Also, makes me wish I still had my hand drawn ship schematics from the WEG SW days!

He **loves** charismatic, powerful men. He wants to be like them, and wants to be *with* them (yes, probably exactly like you're thinking). He knows he's not one, so looks for any opportunity to ride the coattails of any who'll give him the time of day.

Hell yeah! My brother led the charge at the NY ACLU office to do the same, til they did it. Good luck!

Do it! Anything helps, and being in shape is always necessary for successful resistance, even when up against these gravy seals. All those skills are/would be very useful...like learning how to make ICE-melt by stirring styrofoam into gasoline til it gels...for educational purposes only of course.

*fyi, BS removed the gif of AJ doing this(!😑), so here it is in a still). All colonizers, imperialists, fascists and their jackbooted thugs. And frankly, to many on the 'blue' side that have let this happen while paying lip service to the cause yet calling for civility. The system is the problem.

I'm feeling the exact same way. Even with a personal safety-minded background in martial arts, I've bought more 'less lethal 'self defense devices in the past year than ever before, but I'm thinking that still might not be enough. We the people are the only thing that is going to stop this fuckery.

It's actually about 10 volumes (I've only got the first omnibus of vol 1-3 so far), and every 3 books are written by a different author, but Carpenter is always also credited. He wrote the last 3 volumes himself, iirc, and that story arc is called Old Man Jack.

And yes, it's a fun read so far!

Ahhh, yes, great casting choice! πŸ’― And it;s one of my faves...so much so that I got the graphic novel that continues the story right after the end of the movie!

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel

Just when I think I have a handle on wtf is going on in this country and this administration....this happens. Up is down, left is right, and what Twilight Zone episode am I in?

Nope. Very familiar. But I'm referring specifically to the individual cases in the series, which I'm guessing you didn't finish, and the things that can't be explained away like you seem to want to do. But again, you do you. I'm done with this conversation.

Gorgey! I especially love the goliath hunter, piece...you nailed it!

Throwing around that word verifiably like anything has been proven one way or another. It hasn't, and like I said, there's a lot more presented than just the facilitated communication aspect, but if you choose to ignore it, you do you. Not here to convince anyone.

This is a very reductionist take on it, and can't even be applied to much of the evidence presented. They also address this in the series.

One of the first things the documentarian does is start by addressing this concern. The (multiple) parents were *really* hesitant to come forward at all, fearing what people would think. It's handled very well and compassionately, imo, and it's very much worth hearing out.

This situation sucks and I'm sorry you all are going through it. Sending vibes for the best outcome. I lost one of my cat-sons to cancer a few months ago, and his bro has been beside himself with grief, to the point it started to affect his health. Love and more love has gotten him (us) though it.

Emma, have you listened to the Telepathy Tapes podcast? It's basically a ongoing docu series into kids with severe autism who apparently communicate with each other, but it evolves into so much more. It's paradigm shifting in the understanding of what autism is. Seriously fascinating stuff.

JFC, I can't even imagine. Chipped in...wish I could do more.

That fuggin head shake made me grit my teeth. Smacks of someone who doesn't have a viable argument.
