2025 lunar psychosis wrapped

u were diminished by the waning moon 107 times!

u were emboldened by the waxing moon 87 times!

u spent 53.9% of the year in lunar synchronization. that puts u in the top 95% of terrestrial conduits!

[yourlocalnautilus]

the fact that generative A.I. has created a completely new fundamental doubt in reality (checking to see if an artwork we see is manmade or not) and doubt in the instinct of enjoying art is unforgivable. its sickeningly tragic, and i mean it. NOTHING is worth this price and i hope that everyone will one day realize this.

yes

For anyone who doesn’t know, we grew up living off of Brian Jacque’s Redwall series, which we remember most prominently for 1) its depictions of hope in impossible circumstances, and 2) its vivid and enviable descriptions of the food served at feasts. Well, today, 10-15 years after consuming this entire saga, guess what I found at the library.

It has recipes for everything I ever wanted. Strawberry fizz, Blackberry and Apple Cake, classic Redwall scones. And as if that’s not enough, a note from the author himself:

With all the love in my heart,

Two Women Teaching a Child to walk by Rembrandt.

Circa 1640, sketch

British Museum, London

[carpe-mamilia]

There’s a drawing by Rembrandt, I think it’s the greatest drawing ever done. It’s in the British Museum and it’s of a family teaching a child to walk, so it’s a universal thing, everybody has experienced this or seen it happen. Everybody. I used to print out Rembrandt drawings big and give them to people and say: “If you find a better drawing send it to me. But if you find a better one it will be by Goya or Michelangelo perhaps.” But I don’t think there is one actually. It’s a magnificent drawing, magnificent.

(David Hockney)

[ocelotonatrain]

The head donut is the baby proofing. We put rubber over sharp corners, they put a donut on the baby’s head.

The one below is from the Met and is from the early 19th century. As you can see in the drawing, the design didn’t change much from Rembrandt’s time. According to the Met, they were called bumpers or pudding caps.

Do you want to see the oats I have in my pocket? Let me show you-

(oats blow away in the wind)

[beguilingcorpse]

the thing about labubus to me is that i genuinely do think the design is appealing and i love things that are uglycute and if they were lowkey or more niche i think it would be super cute to have one. but the fact that they are mainstream and trendy sucks all of the fun out of it for me

[beguilingcorpse]

this isn’t just “durr hburr mainstream thing Bad i need to feel Cool” it’s just that like. collecting ANYTHING popular is such a slog to me. i love pokemon cards and i love collecting them and i love playing the tcg and i’ve been into pokemon cards for like 15 years and i think they are fun. but the recent wave of “buy them, invest in them, flip them, resell them, snatch up a whole store’s stock” is soooo exhausting. because you literally cannot avoid it as part of the hobby. it is an awful time to try to get into pokemon cards or tcg because you cannot physically get your hands on new cards. and the ppl paying hundreds to thousands of dollars to buy up new releases and restocks are not into pokemon cards for the cards - they want the monetary or social capital that comes with either (a) having extremely rare graded chase cards or (b) ‘investing’ in unopened packs that will purposefully sit in storage for the next fifteen years until they balloon in value. it’s not about pokemon it’s about profit. it’s not about the thing it’s about how to harness the idea of the thing for personal gain. you can’t engage with the Idea without necessarily inviting the Meta Idea.

going back to labubus. no one is actually into labubus. very few people care about the design or the character or the artist or any of it. labubus aren’t cool but HAVING a labubu is cool. it doesn’t matter what your opinion is about labubus but everyone has an opinion about having an opinion on labubus. if you like them you’re vapid and following a craze and trying to fit in. if you hate them you’re trying too hard to be contrarian and you hate fun and you’re being silly because it’s just a toy. you cannot win except by purchasing the thing that everybody can’t stop talking about talking about. and then you get articles like this:

and it’s like ohhh. okay. it was never about a hobby or the doll or even about the trend. it has always been about money. ok got it. thank you.

i’m so tired.

Hello everyone,

It's been a whole year since I first made this art for my dear friend, Mohammed Ayesh @/blackeagleplog , who is still suffering from the same dangers since the very start of this genocide. These days, I still talk to him daily via WhatsApp and he remains steadfast & positive in the face of all his troubles.

I cannot understate how deserving he is of help.

For a long time, he has put aside promoting his own campaign in favour of helping others:

Vetting campaigns on the ground to assure everyone of legitimacy

Creating the Ihyaa Society @ihyaasociety which provides a space for students to continue their education online despite the genocide

It is very important that he himself is supported, given how much he has done for others. Please consider donating to him today. Any amount, no matter how small, will help him.

As of July 9th 2025:

£4,477 / £15,000

Donate to Help Ayesh family, organized by Shelley Gordon

Hi my name is Shelley and I am fundraising on behalf of the Ayesh family. Here is their story My … Shelley Gordon needs your support for

[gaza-evacuation-funds]

Don't stop supporting the Palestinians

I hope that the donations are as tiring as in this art
