Jim Wallis is an anti-racist Protestant theologian. He thinks that Trump's Bible grift is just one of the Orange One's religious issues.
Donald Trump has gone from using the Bible as a prop to turning our Holy Scriptures into a commodity. Words no longer suffice for the things he says and does with the most common word for his personal, political, and presidential behavior being unprecedented. But I have some better words—religious words. I and many other faith leaders are willing to accuse Donald Trump of two more things. The first is idolatry—false worship. The White Christian Nationalism that Trump proclaims, directly names the problem. First, the most inclusive and welcoming message of the gospel of Jesus Christ is made white by the marketer-in-chief of racial grievance. Second, the word Christian is distorted beyond recognition. Service, sacrifice, and love are replaced with control and domination with Trump’s religious disciples unapologetically aiming for control in their “Seven Mountain Strategy”—with right-wing Christians ruling government, business, media, education, family, arts/entertainment, and, of course, religion. And in direct contradiction to Jesus' instruction to his followers to make disciples in every nation, Trump’s faith will be nationalism, not just positively loving your own country, but asserting the power of one nation over others. [ ... ] The second word is heresy, which means drawing Christians and others away from Christ. Donald Trump and his MAGA movement deny the truest and deepest teaching of Jesus in places like his Sermon on the Mount. Trump’s worship of wealth and utter disregard for the poorest and most vulnerable brings the judgment of Jesus in Matthew’s gospel Chapter 25, “As you have done to the least of these you have done to me.” And the life of lies that Donald Trump has led and deliberately spread to the damage of our nation completely contradicts Jesus’ words in the Gospel of John: “You will know the truth and the truth will make you free.”
Here's the burn.
To invoke God, Mr. Trump, in the making and selling of your Bible is a very dangerous thing—not only for the soul of the nation but also for yours. You once said that you never have felt the need to ask God for forgiveness in your life. You might want to reconsider that now.

The art vs the reference (it’s still so crazy to me that I just walked into something I used as a reference for one of my most popular pieces)

So several thoughts about the Nightwing #105 Pride Variant Cover (art by Nick Robles):
Tim
Tim why are you exploiting your big brother's ass for TikTok views
Babs put it best
Who in their right mind painted the gym pink
Wallace West for the love of God-
'Robb1nHearts' is a cute username but honey you can petition TikTok for the @ if it's your own name/brand (Karen Gillian did it)
What's on the front of Dick's crop top
We love supportive bf Bernard
I agree with Jackson what is Nightwing's max
This better be Dick's coming out issue cause there is no way that man is straight
Did Tim straight up ask Dick to work out in his domino so he could film a TikTok of him flexing that is so Gen Z of him
I love that all the current Nightwing comics reference that perfect peach he's got

My favorite genre is ensemble cast in a small town solving mysteries/fighting bad guys and navigating complex family/romantic relationships, with a healthy dose of the supernatural and a heavy sprinkle of unavoidable, profound tragedy. Yes please give me a group of weirdo kids or teens caught in the middle of a homicide investigation. Please, let every single character be funny and sad. Give me a sheriff. And a frazzled mother-figure. And an edgy high-schooler with too much eyeliner and daddy issues. Heck, a himbo, too. And the deepest, most profound friendships. Give me a baller soundtrack. Throw "I know the end" in there. Go crazy with it, add a moody cover of an 80s song. I want drama, I want comedy, I want Vibes, I want complicated relationships. I want kids riding bikes down decrepit suburban streets and fighting monsters with garden tools. I want nasty outdated high-schools that house half the narrative of the story. I want them to be doomed from the start. I wanna bawl my eyes out about it.

Sexy Puppet Tournament Round 1 DIGIT vs WALLY DARLING
Digit (The Jim Henson Hour)
Technical director, keyboardist, "semi-robotic person", based off of David Byrne. What more could you ask for? Apparently a lot more, because Digit had an extremely limited run as a character. Perhaps too freaky-looking for the Muppets... perhaps his autism swagger was simply too much to handle. But we can handle him.

"When I die I'm going to leave my body to science... fiction!"
Wally Darling (Welcome Home)
A relative newcomer to the sexyman scene, Wally Darling is the star of 2023 horror ARG Welcome Home and, within the series fiction, the 70s children's show of the same name. His fashion and suave demeanor have won the hearts of thousands... but there seems to be something darker lurking under the surface. Does he have what it takes to make it to the second round?
(note: for consistency, we are focusing on the physical puppet version of this character, and not the cartoon)

Summary:
In one night six year old Dick Grayson loses everything. In the audience Bruce Wayne feels something he hasn't in a long time and he knows he just can't standby and watch.
Bruce takes in Dick and soon the kid is an integral part of the Justice League's world and all of the heroes. Robin becomes a staple as the first kid sidekick but that doesn't mean Batman doesn't have more.
This is a prequel to Young Justice in a universe where the Batfamily is already all together. Their family grows from Dick, Bruce and Alfred to add Barbara, a flying alien Uncle, a snarky former thief, a kid genius and a little ninja girl among others.
Second in A Flying Robin series.

Gotham and Hannibal inspire some of the crime au?? :) Feels right, its also gritty and interesting. Any specific things you wanted to apply to your own canon?
Yup! Frank is a mash of Harvey Bullock and Hannibal mostly, only way less drunk. Barnaby is heavily inspired by Jack Crawford which is why I mentioned that scene
Generally speaking though it’s very much inspired by both shows and the characters in theme. I’m hoping soon to get Howdy into crime because I want him to go absolutely feral 😂
I haven’t watched other show in a hot sec so I’m not sure what specific elements I wanted to use besides overall dark and gritty themes, murder, and detective stuff. I will say though the uh. The owl mask people in Gotham- the one council thing? Home is inspired by that particular concept. He leads a cult that Wally’s also a part of!
