The parts of Bad Bunny's halftime show that depicted two men dancing with each other the way a man and woman would typically dance are so important to me.

[spacedoutsnail]

Pedro Pascal, Cardi B, Jessica Alba, Karol G and more were on stage during Bad Bunny's halftime performances at the Superbowl

[out-loud]

“The only thing more powerful than hate is love” appearing on a billboard behind Bad Bunny as he’s performing is absolutely perfect.

hello fellow artists. google has fallen. pinterest/duckduckgo AI filters don't work. do not despair; here is a list i made of places to find reference images without having to sift through piles of worthless garbage. (for future editing convenience i am just linking my blog post on dreamwidth.)

✨ good places to find art reference that are not full of AI trash 🌈

This Black History Month, reflect for a moment on the fact that George Washington Carver, famously "the inventor of peanut butter and more than 100 industrial uses for peanuts" wasn't, like, Doc Brown fucking around in his garage because he really liked peanuts but was specifically trying to introduce larger use of a nitrogen fixing legume into crop rotations against cotton monoculture which was destroying yields, livelihoods and the biosphere, and how most agribusiness farming now just destroys that topsoil on purpose and continues to grow a cotton monoculture (or soy or corn or whichever local monoculture is profitable) using petrochemical derived fertilizer, which is one element driving climate change

Daniel Hale Williams performed the first successful heart surgery. He also founded the first nonsegregated hospital in America because he was keenly aware of disparate health outcomes by race which is still a problem today.

WEB Dubois was a part of the delegations for the birth of the UN. His proposal to include in the charter that "the colonial system of government … is undemocratic, socially dangerous and a main cause of wars" was not adapted for the final draft. We might see inaction against colonial violence to this day as part of the failure of others to heed his warnings there.

I feel like so often when we look at Black History Month so much of it is driven by factoids but when taken as history in context its about a direct line from decades and centuries to what is happening right now.

A lot of people seem to mix up ‘community’ with ‘friend group’ so when they read ‘no one should be abandoned by the community. No matter what they did’ they think it means ‘you have to be friends with abusers’. When in reality it means ‘no matter what someone does they shouldnt be left to go homeless and be denied financial, housing, medical, etc aid’

You don’t have to be friends with these people, no one is saying that. It’s just saying that you should support rehabilitative justice, support programs that help homeless people, support funding for free medical services, and make sure they don’t turn away anyone who needs help.

I just had to share this cursed object that the internet dared to market to me as a valentines day gift, anniversary present, or WEDDING BAND.

I mean there’s just no way this thing doesn’t steal souls, right?

[realmarysue]

Oh, damnit, I am going to need to dive into the Jewelry Box of Doom and find this ring, because I bought (a bad knockoff of) it on one of my late night WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?!? jewelry binges.

[realmarysue]

OKAY. I FOUND IT.

First, the image of what I bought. Yes I paid under $5. That is important later.

Now, I did silversmithing for a while so I know that there are unscrupulous people who take images of very painstakingly detailed jewelry, and use those images to 3D print wax casts to make fakes.

The problem is the resolution on those aren’t great.

So.

You get.

Uh.

Cc: @leebrontide as I think you should see what fresh hell you dodged.

[leebrontide]

WOW YES THIS IS WORSE ACTUALLY

[gwydionmisha]

We should throw this into Mt. Doom just in case.

So the banner ad didn’t scale down for the mobile browser and it took me multiple minutes to realize that this stock photo of people in business suits was not, in fact, an illustration of what oathbreaker paladins in service to an evil power are supposed to look like

[wizardshark]

business majors as soon as they're done with that pesky "ethics" class they have to take to get their degree
