#I WANT 11 OF THEM

[biggest-gaudiest-patronuses]

Of the 19 hijackers who carried out the Sept 11 attacks:

15 were from Saudi Arabia (a powerful/oil-rich country the U.S. works hard to maintain diplomatic relations with)

2 were from the United Arab Emirates (also a powerful/oil-rich country the U.S. works hard to maintain diplomatic relations with)

1 was from Egypt, 1 from Lebanon.

None of the hijackers were from Iraq.

None of the Sept 11 hijackers were Iraqi.

None of the 9/11 hijackers were from Iraq.

#9/11 #serious post #not a shitpost #this should be one of the first things kids learn when they learn about the 9/11 attacks #politics #this is just...it's such an essential and brazen fact and i rarely see basic outrage over it #i want outrage. i want fury. i want disgust over the way fundamental facts are disguised and discarded and downplayed #because there are things we should KNOW. basic fact we should ALL KNOW. and they are tucked away in the footnotes. #and no this is NOT to put the blame on other middle eastern countries #we know this was carried out by a specific terrorist organization not a national government #but King George the Second decided (and was encouraged by his cabinet!) to invade a nation! #a nation that was not at all related or responsible!!! #a dictatorship to be sure--but a dictatorship that King George the First had been happy to support #so what changed? why did we go in guns blazing to DEMOLISH a country *we had NO PLANS OF REPAIRING*??? #well. because they wanted a villain didn't they. a nice clean war. clarity of purpose. us the heroes against them the villains #and when you're in that mindframe--truth is irrelevant. you can pick your villain (your victim) by rolling a roulette wheel #truth is irrelevant #worse: to the people in charge #truth is a HINDRANCE #'Alternative facts' existed long before it became a catchphrase #facts don't matter. truth doesn't matter. the impulses of a handful of volatile & rich & power-high people--that's History. congratulations

can you even call it a warm up if I'm going to bed without drawing anything big

and a sketch I made while sitting in the park today

#sketch #my art #bnha #shigaraki tomura #tenko shimura #all for one #midoriya izuku #bnha manga spoilers #only after I finished basically polishing this sketch did I notice how it's basically dark and light mode #also the first one is basically a redraw of illustration from vol 11 #I know that translation of Tenko's words is different in official but eh #fanart #I've kind of recovered from recent chapters #and I was analysing those chapters all morning #I'm still thinking but otherwise the chapters are so good #also did you notice that AFO actually talked about how his other him didn't use that 'last thing' yet and that was in ch 410 #and in ch 419 he did so it's real and it's still sad #but still AFO was never hiding it enough #from Tomura maybe but we as readers actually saw his plans play out #in any case I'm still just sitting with those two Izuku and Tenko interaction chapters #I waited long enough #and if you don't count AFO's return Izuku DID save Tenko and it's so interesting #since he now has to save his OTHER origin that was in ch 237 taught to kill whatever he wants #Tenko and Tomura both had 'origins' chapters and for now we only worked with 235 and 236 #and even if Izuku helped with the start of 237 there's still AFO #in any case it was a hard week #also the second thing actually had them holding hands #and then I was like 'but at that point Izuku's hands are gone oh no' #and it was just Tenko holding air where the hand was destroyed #in any case that scene.

robin (2021) #5

something i just realized about the “you were my robin” / “we were the best” little moments between dick and damian is that damian’s already fourteen by this point, it’s been so long since they had their batman-and-robin dynamic, but it was still such an important time in their lives!!! they keep bringing it up and i love it!!

#like what was it? a year? that bruce was gone?? #damian was 10 to 11 when dick was his caretaker and then it was him and bruce for the rest of the time #but damian still care about dick differently than anyone else #and dick admits to wanting to adopt damian during that time #and thinks of raising damian when he and shawn think about having their baby #i just love them a lot <3 #ggw liveblog #robin 2021 #damian wayne #dick grayson

Blake dreams of a carousel. 

Animals dance around her with painted wings and fantastic golden saddles. She stands among them – watching them go by. Such an elegant contraption decorated with jewels and lights. A skin of paint meant to disguise a skeletal contraption of iron poles and chain-work shackles. It creaks and groans as the gears twist and turn, moving it round and round and round. It doesn't sleep. It never stops. It just keeps turning, and turning, and turning, playing the same lively tune as animals leap and pounce over and under, over and under, over and under.

From upcoming chapter 18 - Moment of Peace, dropping this week!

Read Midnight Menagerie on AO3!

#midnightbeesfic #rwby #bumbleby #blake belladonna #There are at least 11 details on this that are direct symbolism #see if you can spot them all :D #*slaps the top of the horse* this baby can hold so much symbolism in it #Everything down to the color of the horse #Sawrin come get your food pspspsps #God I've been wanting to draw a carousel horse with Blake for ages #I FORGOT TO RENDER THE FUCKASS HAIR

It's 1 AM. Tumblr scrapped its own content and is negotiating selling it to OpenAI.

The world is truly closing in on artists, which is less to say that I'll ever stop making art bc making art means life to me, but what part of that is going to be shared? I don't know. I seriously don't know...

It's the main reason I left twitter.

I am already sharing less than half of what I make here on tumblr nowadays, not because I don't want to, but what's the point.

I have so many horses; AI can't do horses and it sure as hell won't learn of the back of my work.

I have suggestive fanart that has no nudity in it whatsoever and i am so happy with; following the CEP thing even that has a chance to get flagged bc i've seen it be done to other artists.

I have 10 years worth of work here, i don't want to move. But half of my art got flagged all the way in 2018 and i didn't have the energy to appeal it.

Discord already is selling everything you send through it to OpenAI. Private discord server for art sharing just doesn't work.

So what's the point?

I'm tired...

#i want people to gawk at my weird horses #they're my pride and joy and i love it when people talk about them and do the silly memes or talk educational content #losing twitter has been very hard #if this is how it's gonna be maybe i should just head back there like nothing ever happened and start posting again #if we're all gonna be fodder to skynet anyway #are they gonna start scrapping stuff from our folders next? bc windows 11 is already so internetized and cloud-based? #who am I to say #gonna move back to freaking gouache and start posting my weird horses in galleries #maybe some ken will adopt me into the patriarchy

For 11/11 you get Jane & Roxy because I never draw them and they deserve some love <3

#Oh look I didn’t forget 11/11 was a thing #alpha kids day but you only get half of them #and maybe you'll get the other half next year who knows #i do want to draw dirk and jake before that though #I was actually planning to render this but I like the simple look better this time #especially since I feel like it's a little bit more cartoony that what I usually do #homestuck #homestuck fanart #hs fanart #roxy lalonde #jane crocker #alpha kids #my art

so I was very sad about how the internet has a lot of fake tweet generators but no fake twitter profile generators for some reason? and then I remembered that there's usually illustrator file mockups of that sort of thing for graphic designers so I went and downloaded one (...probably I should have thought of that earlier...) but anyway here's what Laurence's profile looks like in the twitter AU a year or three into retirement:

and then later, around the time people really start following him without knowing who he is already:

#the temeraire twitter AU #temeraire #bringing back this very silly AU for a bit because I wanted to do profiles from the start #professional graphic designer who uses mockups for work constantly forgets they exist when she needs them for fun more at 11 #the kitten rambles #temeraire spoilers
