The Iranian Regime is going to execute rapper Toomaj Salehi for supporting protests of Jina Amini’s murder by the regime in his songs.
Iranian activist Elica Le Bon says, “Iranians in the diaspora picked up on the fact that the regime tends not to execute people who become known to the international community. We have seen many examples of prisoners that were either released on bail or had their sentences commuted through our “say their names to save their lives” campaign on social media, using hashtags to garner attention for their causes, and even before social media existed, through getting the stories of political prisoners to international media outlets. Once reported on, and once the eyes shift to the regime and the reality of its pending brutality, realizing that the action is not worth the repercussions, we have seen them back down and not execute. For that reason, this is part of an urgent campaign for readers to talk about Toomaj as much as you can, using the hashtag #FreeToomaj or #ToomajSalehi. Every comment makes a difference, and if we were wrong, what did we lose by trying?”
Before the computing era, ILM was the master of oil matte painting, making audiences believe that some of the sets in the original Star Wars and Indiana Jones trilogy were real when they weren’t. They were the work of geniuses like Chris Evans, Michael Pangrazio, Frank Ordaz, Harrison Ellenshaw and Ralph McQuarrie ! Forever thank you, to their handmade art and the work of their colleagues, that made us dream of impossible worlds and fantastic places across Earth and the Universe.
There are more background paintings on this article, featuring comments by the masters/artists themselves !
Some of the following pieces were made by other artists 2:
“nothing tastes as good as skinny feels” was like fucking detrimental to me in the early years of having an eating disorder and even now i flit back to it out of habit but you have to realize how genuinely corny and stupid that shit is. not to mention factually incorrect. MANY things taste infinitely better. have you never had warm pita
I do not anthropomorphize my robot vacuum. I’ve tried! (I’ve also tried anthropomorphizing my various cars over the years and never once has it stuck—I come up with cute names but never use them; I don’t talk to my vehicles/appliances like they were people I could encourage to do better by motivating them even though I think strategic personal superstitions can be psychologically helpful. My anthropomorphizing instincts just seem to be limited to living creatures?) But.
My GOD I love my lil robot vacuum! MVP of the household! Not because I think it’s cute—my black cat is the handsomest creature in this house; the robot vacuum is simply sleek—or because I perceive any emotion in how it operates, but rather based on the simple fact that it does 90% of my vacuuming for me, and there are no household chores I loathe more than vacuuming.
Lil robovac, I do not assign you personhood, but I love you and how much better you make my life. Hearts hearts hearts. ❤️ I hope you never break. (Not because I would feel the same way about you breaking as I did about my previous cat abruptly going into kidney failure and having a brain-damaging stroke one heart-breaking weekend a few years back, but because you are a moderately expensive piece of equipment I value highly and wish to never live without. Please live a long and fruitful life of gathering dust, my beloved.)
another thing abt me. i use the 👍 emoji very liberally. im not being sarcastic or passive aggressive im being like cool ok or thanks for the heads up or etc. to me 👍 is an innocent happy polite little emoji
