This one hurts bad.

I wanted to make some art after the news of Anthony Head’s passing earlier this week, but I was imminently going travelling so I couldn’t find the time, until now.

Anthony’s work has been so core to my life, in my childhood as Uther Pendragon in Merlin, Mr Finch in the School Reunion episode of Doctor Who, and taking me up to last year, when I watched Buffy the Vampire Slayer for the first time. Giles became my favourite on the second episode. My friends noted that they’d never seen me fall in love with a character that fast.

It’s such a terrible heartache on the world to lose him, in not just himself and his artistic work, but also in his advocacy work and allyship of the trans community. He was vocally supportive of numerous causes and it seems people only have wonderful things to say about him. He’ll be sorely missed.

Rest in peace, legend 👑📚🦇

On this day, 15 June 1990, the Battle of Century City took place, as police in Los Angeles attacked striking janitors and their supporters during a peaceful Service Employees International Union demonstration. Janitors in the Century City office complex, most of whom were employed by cleaning contractor ISS, had gone out on strike on May 29 demanding improvements to pay and conditions. On the June 15 protest, LAPD officers brutally attacked the workers and their supporters, leaving several people seriously injured, including one pregnant woman who miscarried as a result. Rather than deter the workers, the violence caused mass outrage. And ISS subsequently agreed to recognise the workers’ union, provide for family health coverage and pay a living wage. The event also began to be commemorated with the creation of an annual June 15 Justice for Janitors Day. * If you value our work researching and promoting people’s history like this, please consider supporting us on patreon, where you can also get exclusive content and benefits: https://patreon.com/workingclasshistory https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=644834894356396&set=a.602588028581083&type=3

On this day, 15 June 1974, Kevin Gately, a twenty-year-old Warwick University student, was killed during a demonstration against the fascist National Front in Red Lion Square, London. The NF had planned a meeting in Conway Hall with the title “Stop immigration – start repatriation”. There was a large counter-demonstration, as well as a smaller contingent of anti-fascists who blocked the doors of the hall in an attempt to prevent the meeting from taking place. Anti-racist protesters were then attacked by police, including the notoriously violent Special Patrol Group. After 15 minutes of clashes Gately, a mathematics student of Irish descent, was found prone on the ground and taken to hospital. Police claimed that he had no physical injuries, but an inquest determined his death was caused by a cerebral haemorrhage following a blow to the head from a blunt instrument. Fellow protesters accused the police of murder, and several newspapers alleged that his death was most likely the result of a blow from a baton wielded by mounted police. An official enquiry into Gately’s death by Lord Scarman completely exonerated police and instead primarily blamed the deaths on a left-wing organisation, the International Marxist Group, which led the blockade of Conway Hall. The attempted blockade was also condemned by the Communist Party of Great Britain, which criticised the “adventurist tactics of a minority”. In the wake of the death, the first on a protest in mainland Britain since 1919, support for militant antifascism grew. * Facebook has informed WCH that they have restricted our page and it is at risk of being unpublished due to our posting about anti-fascism.

and there’s a pair of barn swallows that just hatched four babies. both parents are working Very Hard to feed them and whenever one comes back with a bug, all four babies reach their heads up in perfect sync

one Great Blue Heron (iconic) and one Great Egret, both very fond of standing in water. apparently there are also “Little” and “Intermediate” egrets

His review of this mess of a story is still one of my faves of his all this time later XD

I love that he made Batman's War on Rock And Roll a running gag on his show after this too :D

Okay, so... You just need these shapes drawn more precisely? W-With better balance, if possible... Drawing aside, I'm good at seeing the balance in things. It's what I do all the time. Hey. This sign here... Instead of just top and bottom, could I draw it on the sides, too? A three-dimensional object needs to be shaped from all angles. With the spell as it is, it's probably losing information and failing to form right. So... I mean, sorry. I didn't mean to alter your spell for you. No, that's okay. It's a basic spell. And... If you adjust a spell in a way that makes it work, it becomes your spell, Tartah. Try it. Sure. I'll try.

Family Watch International denies any involvement.

Christianity is a disease that has brought nothing but misery and suffering to the entire world

And the horrifying damage that this plague has done to Africa since the day racist colonisers introduced it to the continent as means of brainwashing, controlling and enslaving the indigenous population is a prime example of that

Of all the diseases white people have brought to Africa, christianity is most definitely the WORST one
