È proprio così. A meno che non pensiate sul serio che sia stata ingravidata per virtù dallo spirito santo. Se non vi è chiara la faccenda pensate ad Alien o a Divina Invasione (di Philip K Dick). Solo una narrazione maschilista e patriarcale ha potuto narrare come nobilitante il fatto di usare l’utero di una donna senza chiedere il suo consenso.

Do you have any tips for drawing body horror/ horror in general?
ooh ooh imma put this one under a cut cuz it’s gonna be long
anyways, for body horror, most commonly you just kinda mess around with it, put stuff where’s it’s not supposed to be, extra limbs, extra everything, open the body up a bit, basically divide it up and put it in a blender with a bunch of extra parts, like when you’re making something out of lego and you have stuff left over, so you just stick it on wherever
and make it look all weird and shit and of course, body horror only looks better when it’s more realistic. and has got dark shading.
more shading more weirdness. also white on black is a thing that’s used a lot to make stuff look creepy, and it works well with eyes and teeth
but hey simple stuff can be used for horror too
best things for this kinda stuff (in my opinion) are mouths and eyes, and if you add a lil of red to them it looks better. also put a bunch of holes together for a lil’ of trypophobia-stuff.
what you can do is get a simple cartoony style and just emphasise on one thing like eyes or mouth or something and make only THAT detailed and it looks weird
bonus points for up close and personal
bonus points for… this?
make it weird! make it surreal! (use insects those are great) put stuff where it aint supposed to be and make it bloodddyyyy
for extra surreal points: use contrast! light on dark, dark on light
and make it all gross too thats always good
here’s another example: https://brightsketch.deviantart.com/art/Odium-1-722575524
Step 1: Draw the sketch of the hair using a darker version of the color you want it to be. Remeber to keep the flow of it. Don’t draw idividual strands, draw clumps at a time that dirrect the flow. Each clump of hair should have one focal point.
Step 2. Make a new layer and pull it under the sketch layer. On this layer, use a lighter version of the sketch color and fill in the hair area to make sort of a “base” color. Then go to your sketch layer and merge the layer down in to your color layer.
Step 3: Using the eyedropper tool select the color of the original sketch. With this color, start suggestiong the apperace of hair. To do this, start your bush at the focal point of each clump and swish it down half way trough the clump. This part is all about pressure. As you reach the center, ease up on the pen in one swishing motion. Fallow the flow of the hair.
Step 5. : Now find the highlight color. the easiest way to do this is select the original base color and make it a bit lighter. Now with light pen pressure, swish this over the parts where the base color is still showing. Flick your pen upwards at the part where the highlight meets the shadow.
5. Now it’s time to add the reflected light. Reflected light is usually pretty subtle unless the subject is standing dirrectly infront of a light source. The color of the reflected light depends on the color of the light source. I like to use a light yellow if it’s sun light or a light bulb and aqua blue if it’s some kind of digital tech. Remember the color you choose sets the mood of the painting, so choose carefully. To apply reflected light, use the tinest bit of pressure you can and run it over the edge of the side of the hair that the light is hitting. Then slowly run it over the edges of the highlights. At this point you can darken any shadows that are below the front of the hair. Remeber while hair is thin, clumps can cast shadows just as well as an apple can.
6. This is your last chance to darken shadows so take a good look and darken anything not dark enough. Finally add some finishing touches. Open a new layer and using white or an ultra light vrsion of the reflected light color, add tiny lines that fallow the flow of the hair. make rows of thease lines occasionaly trough out the hair. this will give it that shiny ‘polished’ look. Finally fly away strands. I typcially do fly away strands in two colors. One set I do in the reflected light color on the side the light source is. Another set, I do in shadow colors on the side facing away from the hair. Now I know this part is really fun but don’t go too crazy or else the subject will look like they have bed head!
And that’s my hair tutorial. Remember there are lots of diffrent ways to do things and this is just one of them! What works for me, may not work for you so explore your options!
Qualche anno fa minimum fax pubblicò un libro radicale, Aboliamo le prigioni? di Angela Davis, che faceva piazza pulita di tutta una serie di luoghi comuni sulle carceri. Su Minima&Moralia ne hanno ripubblicato un estratto, che prendiamo in prestito.

Sgomberare bambini coi libri e occultare notizie sui fascisti armati

Due notizie che dovrebbero far riflettere su quello che è lo stato delle cose. Dal un lato lo sgombero di Primavalle. Famiglie con bambini che altro non hanno da portare via con se se non i libri. Pericolosi, vero?
Dall’altro ci sono dei fascisti che nascondevano una quantità enorme di armi e perfino un missile terra aria. Si stavano preparando…
