There’s a lot at stake in this video…

This video was actually a request from a Patron

was talking to a coworker and realised i could not for the life of me remember his name but i was too embarrassed to ask because we've spoken multiple times so mid-conversation i started concocting a plan to nudge the conversation towards the ID photos on our building passes so that i could be like oh my ID photo is awful haha the camera they use to take these has a real talent for making me look as unphotogenic as possible and then he would say oh yes me too haha everyone says that (because they do) and then i would be able to say well let me see yours it can't be as bad as mine! and he would show me his ID because we are coworkers and why wouldn't he and this would allow me to see his building pass which of course would have his name on it and then i would be able to say well yours is perfectly nice it must be me that's the problem! and then we would have a polite chuckle about it and i would have his name without needing to ask for it and he would be none the wiser and all would be well but then before i could execute this fine plan a little voice in my head went "so this is some light yagami bull shit you are about to pull" which was such a violent reality check it shocked me completely out of my embarrassment and i went "hey im so sorry your name has slipped my mind could you remind me" and he did and it was fine.

As a society we have benefited so much from successful public health measures that we now have the privilege of declaring that we must not need them anymore

Bitch before enriched flour, neural tube defects like spina bifida were far more common. Even now, spina bifida clinicians and researchers are begging to have salt and maize fortified to reach groups that don’t use as much flour. Before iodized salt, the United States had a fucking GOITER BELT. Eleven years after the introduction of fluoridated water, a city in Michigan found the rate of dental caries among school children dropped a staggering 60%— in an era where tooth decay regularly fucking killed people

I’m literally not even going to start on vaccines, which are among the most successful and robustly studied public health measures in world history

You might say “oh well today we all have access to vitamins and toothpastes and dentists so we don’t need those things in our food supplies” and boy do white people on social media loooove to fucking say that. But here’s the thing: no, people don’t all have easy access to those things. That’s privilege talking yet again

wolves, eh?

tumblr, I have to apologize. somehow in 2019 I really just wasn't posting regularly and thus I failed to share something huge and significant with you - something fanged and furred and wild and haunted and free -- something lupine and transformative - Wolfspell.

Wolfspell is a tabletop rpg by Epidiah Ravachol, that I had the honour of illustrating in this most inspired of formats, the trifold LP case. (no LP included - please add your own soundtrack fo choice at the table!)

Who is Epidiah? You might know him from the epic storytelling game Swords Without Master, or the Jenga-powered horror game Dread.

But back to the wolves:

Epidiah’s Wolfspell is a game where you tell the stories of rogues, adventurers, warriors and travelers who have been turned into wolves and must achieve their vengeance, source their treasure, or escape their fate as wolves before they can return to their human forms.

As a player in Wolfspell, you are torn between your wolf side and your human side, pitting a wolf die against a blood die on every roll. Working as a pack will keep you safest; a lone wolf might not survive to tell their tale.

As the GM in Wolfspell you are called Winter, and you bring your wrath down on those who have earned it through failed rolls and dangerous choices, while you add challenges, magic and snow to your players’ story.

This game feels epic and haunting to play; communicating through the language and senses of wolves adds a flavour of strangeness and surprise to already solid sword and sorcery tales.

If you seek to feel the wind in your fur, to wrestle with your human and animal instincts - and to find where both, at their core, are the same - to see wonders, embark on quests, solve mysteries, and vanquish foes, all while wrestling against the cruel strength of winter's wrath - this is the game for you.

Painting this is one of my proudest projects and I don't know HOW i failed to share it here on Tumblr before, but, hey! if you like wolves, better late than never!

I’m watching the final hour of the episode and like, as someone with a pretty strong taste for gallows humor I’m now imagining Trent Ikithon’s powerpoint presentation, I Should Get To Torture Gifted Zemnian Teenagers, For Nationalism Reasons

If you had an identical twin that you get along with, you could probably have a lot of fun by getting to know other sets of identical twins and then pulling pranks with them.

Like seeing two people who look exactly the same close proximity to each other? Yeah that's totally twins. But imagine being in an art gallery where there's a group of five people on the 1st floor, and you go up the stairs and ???? the exact same group of five people is also there?? And you didn't see them pass you at the stairs?

We go forward.
