the poster that this incredible illustration is based on is extremely striking. but while searching for it, I also found earlier posters for conveying this message along with a corresponding one for summer, and I fucking love them. absolutely lovely graphic design work. (both are from 1924, artist is Austin Cooper)

the one I was looking for originally also has a summer variant. (artist is Frederick Charles Herrick: 'it is warmer below' is from 1927, 'it is cooler below' is 1926)

I love these posters. Do you know what I also love? Every person from London who's ever taken the Underground in a heatwave* in the notes currently going 'it's cooler below MY ARSE'.

(*or in summer, or even when it's just mildly sunny outside)

Young Ladies Rage At Fighting Games

[demilypyro]

i’m sorry people keep calling you instant loss girl they simply do not understand your appeal. your indomitable spirit cannot be satisfyingly broken off screen anyways, like why would you skip over seeing the fire burning in your eyes when you’re overpowered and the way it goes from unwavering determination to indignant resentment to a resigned and simmering anger. you’re so proud and so strong, watching you loose slowly, watching you be forced to come to terms with how out of control you are in a situation, watching your resistance become more angry before you start giving up, it’s the fun part.

can you post more of your fighting game losses?

.... There is a perverse energy coming off this question.

Why does staff still allow people funnier than you to leave tags on your posts. They should have fixed that by now

Ugandan General Muhoozi Kainerugaba, the son of President Yoweri Museveni and Uganda’s Chief of Defence Forces, has sparked widespread attention after posting a series of messages on calling on rapper Jay-Z to “surrender” his wife, Beyoncé.

In the posts, Muhoozi gave Jay-Z one week to hand over Beyoncé, saying that if it didn’t happen, he would take the matter to the United Nations or even stage a one-man “I’m Here, Beyoncé” protest.

He also challenged Jay-Z to a duel at dawn, declaring, “Jay-Z can do whatever he wants to me, but I’m taking Beyoncé.”

The general went on to boast about owning thousands of Ankole cattle, claiming Jay-Z was “poor” by Ugandan standards because he does not own the highly valued cattle, which are considered a symbol of wealth and prestige.

Saw this on Twitter and I obligatory need to share it

[crazy-pages]

So she actually said that she does not see the appeal in Senshi at all and that the panty shots weren't intended to be horny - she just has a neighbor who looks kind of like him and does laundry in his underwear. Which she finds kind of weird and offputting, and put into his character to be funny.

But that's the thing. She doesn't exaggerate or grotesqueify or alter people's bodies to fit some standard. (Except insofar as she draws different species differently, and those are exquisitely practiced to ensure they have the same diversity of appearances that humans do.) She just presents people exactly as they are, complexities and oddities and all.

It just so happens that when you present people exactly as they are, what you present will be beautiful and alluring to many. Even the things you yourself might find weird and offputting. Honestly I think it's a touching example of how you don't have to see the beauty in everyone for the beauty to be there, simple honesty is enough to let the wonder of people's humanity shine through.

#i think we should put this post next to the interview where she said she doesn't want to eat the food in the series cuz she's a picky eater#and file them both under 'you don't know an artist from their work'#and maybe you don't need to!#maybe all you need to know is that ryoko kui is Good At What She Does#idk I don't like the implication that artists (and women especially?) can only create from personal life and feelings#some people have imagination and craft#kind of a tangent but. there you go.

no but you're very correct
