Day 229, and we've started on full-body shading! Which I will probably scrap tomorrow and redo from scratch with more deliberation, I just wanted to get something visible done tonight since the majority of my art time was spent with ProCreate's equivalent of the lasso select tool XD
Or maybe I will keep it, who knows, not me! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

NO VACANCY
“Dragons of the prime, / That tare each other in their slime” —Alfred Tennyson
This is an overview of the world of USA socio-economic politics. It’s an overt statement of the way things are. Such statements, the actual display of a “no” sign, are never this overt out there, our socio-economic-political leaders string us along as it’s to their advantage for the rest of us to be optimistic, but in…

Ose tuer les enfants de la Liberté
Ose et regarde sa colère montée
Cacher derrière l'uniforme, ses couleurs,
Ose donc, puisque tu abhorres ses valeurs.
Quand tu rencontreras le peuple dans la rue
Quand tu critiqueras son choix, sa violence
Rapelle-toi du sang que tu as répandu
La mort que tu as donné avec nonchalance
Oh Marianne, Liberté, Mère de tous,
Ont-Ils oubliés notre histoire, ta naissance
Va, méprise le peuple avec ton insolence
Or notre réponse ne sera jamais douce
~
Marianne est le nom donné à l'allégorie de la Liberté créée par le peintre Delacroix dans son tableau "La Liberté guidant le peuple". Nous sommes en 1830, et l'artiste représente le peuple français se levant contre le gouvernement. Ce sont des manifestants, des émeutiers, qui cassent et utilisent le mobilier urbain pour créer des barricades contre les forces de l'ordre, les troupes de Charles X. Marianne sera aussi représentée, plus tard, allaitant des nourrissons, des allégories du peuple. Marianne nourrit la soif de liberté du peuple et le guide vers celle-ci. Accaparée par l'État, elle devient allégorie de la République, mais ceci est une utilisation politique, tout comme les autres valeurs françaises. Mais, Marianne est la Liberté, et elle se bat au côté du peuple avant tout.
Depuis la Révolution française, notre pays a connu de nombreux régimes, mais un regard sur son histoire démontre que les stratégies politiques restent les mêmes. En juin 1848, durant la seconde République, les ouvriers de Paris revendiquent de meilleures conditions de vie. Le gouvernement veut ramener "l'ordre" à Paris, et ses membres de l'Assemblée (dont Victor Hugo, le mec est loin d'être un ange) écrivent des textes qui sont envoyés dans tout le pays, des textes décrivant les manifestants, les émeutiers, comme "des criminels, des voleurs, des tueurs, des violeurs", ce que l'on sait avec le recul être des mensonges. Le but est de rallier les gardes nationaux, républicains (la police) et les militaires du pays à venir à Paris pour "maintenir l'ordre", car la police parisienne ne suffit pas. C'est un massacre, avec entre 3000 et 5000 insurgés tués, 1500 exécutés sans jugement et une dizaine de milliers condamnés à la prison ou la déportation. Il a beaucoup d'autres exemples pour quand le gouvernement français, qu'importe le régime, parle de "maintenir l'ordre", il fait référence à faire taire les démunis et les contestataires par la violence (ceci est toujours vu comme autoritaire par les historiens), mais je vous parle aujourd'hui de la 2de République pour une bonne raison. Celle-ci se termine par un coup d'État de son président qui s'est vu refuser un nouveau mandat, car ce serait contraire à la constitution. Beaucoup d'ennemis potentiels sont arrêtés avant les faits, et le jour de la chute de la République, l'Assemblée appelle à l'aide la population qu'elle a malmenée. Le peuple parisien n'a rien à gagner à sauver la République qui les a massacrés, la différence avec un Empire est inexistante à leurs yeux.
Une nation existe par son peuple, et non par son gouvernement. L'histoire étudie les événements avec recul, et le bilan est toujours le même. La vérité, même si vous la refusez, sera reconnue, et une fois de plus, le gouvernement français est coupable de violence et de mensonges au nom de l'ordre.

The zoomer anon, you know that official works with the malice part remind how I got into comics
“Man I love this complex character I sure do-aaaand the next writer character assassinate the living fuck out of them because of personal bias or editorial mandates”
I could work at the marvel and dc comic divisions, I would either murder about 50% of my coworkers or burn down the HQs
Actually both most likely sorry with modern “takes” on Tony stark, Damian Wayne, and dear LORD what they did to Starfire and Barbra Gordan
I often wonder
“How the FUCK did these writers went with such interpretations?!”
Welcome to the pain of being a long time comic reader, my friend.
I've said a few times that I gave up on Marvel with Civil War, but what made me give up on mainstream comics as a whole was twofold. One, I hated the New 52 reboot. It ripped everything up everything I liked about DC and replaced it with cheap knockoffs and diversity hires. But after Rebirth, I started to soften a bit on DC. I read a few of the Scott Snyder Batman comics and didn't hate them. But the thing that really intrigued me was Peter Tomasi's Super Sons. I discovered it late into the run through image sets and meta a mutual from my old, non-politcs blog posted and it looked like a lot of fun. I heard the book was ending and I decided to wait until it was done to start reading it properly, so I could have a nice contained story to read and maybe use as a jumping on point to dip my toes back into DC full time. Maybe I'd even finally get into Superman, which I've tried a few times over the years, but he'd never really caught on with me the way Batman did.
Then I heard what Bendis did to Jon Kent, and I realized there was no point in ever getting invested in any of the Big Two ever again. Anything you like will inevitably be changed, and changed in a big, negative way. Editorial mandates and writers with a grudge against a character will always find a way to mess up anything that manages to somehow be good. Mainstream comics is a fully compromised art form. The days of Denny O'Neil, Chuck Dixon, Greg Rucka, Chris Claremont and the like were well and truly dead. The days of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby seem like a fever dream, because how could comics ever actually be that good?
Honestly, the best thing that could happen to our favorite characters is entering the public domain. The horrible takes will multiply, but there will at least be a non-zero chance of seeing a long running story with those characters done right for the first time in years, if not decades.
Until then, if that ever happens, we either reread the books we used to love and ignore the rest, or we try to find new voices outside of mainstream comics. For the latter, I can't recommend Eric July's Rippaverse enough. They even have Chuck Dixon writing for them now, and his first book, Alphacore, was great.

Wille’s privilege?
So we all remember the Queen's famous words about how being royal is not a punishment but a privilege.
And in many ways he is super privileged. But in otherways he's really not.
And being the Crown prince actually limits some of his human rights and freedoms compared to his mates. And as someone who has studied human rights law I find it pretty interesting to think about.
Now I just want to start off by saying that Wilhelm is still very much privileged when it comes to human rights. He doesn't have to live in fear of persecution or death for anything. He has rights other people around the world does not.
But this is about something else and I just want to talk about the rights and freedoms that are more limited in different ways. And in this case it's mostly rights that the royal family has sacrificed themselves. Again, we are not talking human rights that are limited, deprived or breached by the government. I just want to underline some ways in which Wilhelm and the rest of the royal family are very limited.
Right to privacy: Everyone has the right to respect for his private and family life, his home and his correspondence article 8,1 ECHR
Yeah, pretty self explantory. The royal family does not enjoy alot of privacy. Pretty much everything seems to be fair game when it comes to sharing and digging into their lives.
Right to freedom of religion: Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief, in worship, teaching, practice and observance. Art 9 ECHR
The royal family has to be raised Lutheran. Or to be more specific the person in direct line to the throne has to be, according to the law of succession.
So here we actually have a law that limits Wilhelm’s freedom of religion. We don't know however how religious the family actually is apart from cultural and ceremonial purposes. He does wear his cross necklace almost all the time so.
And Simon is still free to choose his even if they marry. Their children- not so much.
Right to freedom of expression: Everyone has the right to freedom of expression. This right shall include freedom to hold opinions and to receive and impart information and ideas without interference by public authority and regardless of frontiers. This Article shall not prevent States from requiring the licensing of broadcasting, television or cinema enterprises. Art 10 ECHR
This is an article that already has limitations that applies to everyone but the royal family has limited it for themselves even more. They are not supposed to speak on politcal matters and keep a neutral stance on politics.
They are allowed to vote but have chosen not to to keep their neutrality.
You can always argue though that the work they do and the topics they choose to engage in are infact political statements, for instance engaging in environmental issues and participating in the QX gala but they are still far more limited than the rest of the population in Sweden.
If we take Simon for example, nothing stops him from speaking up in the classroom when the discussion comes up in class whearas Wille has ti stay silent. Simon even questions him about it and demands answers to why Wille never spoke up. It doesn't even cross his mind that Wille isn't allowed until Wille says it.
To a lesser extent it's also highlighted when they are in Wille's room before Wille's interview and Simon says "they can't make you..."
Because in the end they kinda can make Wille say or not say anything depending on their agenda.
So while these might not be the most serious limitations on human rights, especially not in the bigger picture I still think it's worth remembering that with every privilege that Wille enjoys there's also a downside. And it's pretty sad.
