God’s Beast, King’s Beast.

[hieroglyphwitch]

well, you’ll stand like you stood as a babe tugging at the house plants all on your own honest and truly

you’ll rise like land pulled up at the sound of some strange commandment a moon alight reflecting fully

and I guess it would feel like rebirth out of some kind of dying to see yourself so glowing'

I've been listening to glowing on loop a lot lately. it's been a favorite of mine since it came out. felt only right to draw my favorite little guy while listening to it on loop! you can download the zine this piece was featured in here

Been playing Triangle Agency with a few of my friends lately, so I figured I'd post some art of my latest little blorbo, Lena, who's a Gun/Struggling/Gravedigger. (Lark, on the right in the last image, belongs to @hieroglyphwitch!)

She's the Agency's #3 girlfailure. Her Gun manifests as one of those silly-looking Nerf laser tag guns. Her hobbies include aggressively shaking the vending machines at work, getting into deeply unhinged situationships with her coworkers, and great acts of self-sabotage.

Like a true Gun, she's diligent and attentive, but prideful and self-centered... and she performs most effectively under the guiding hand of a watchful General Manager. 📺

(A little more infodumping under cut.)

She was really inspired by characters like GLaDOS and Agent Black... I wanted to have a "tortured woman" character, who is definitely justified in at least some of her retaliation under an oppressive system, but who also creates a lot of her own problems.

I think she has a lot of difficulty understanding and accepting her Anomaly— she doesn't fancy herself a violent or really even aggressive person, because I figure in many ways, violence has been normalized in her life.

She's just a very tired person who wants all these horrible things she experiences to end: debt, chronic pain, suffering, addiction, and most importantly, the annoying ass pharmacist at Walgreens. And regardless of whether she ever intended on acting on them before, the Gun heard her, and gave her the power of Ending Things.

It's been really interesting watching how she chooses to use her Gun– it can't be [directly] used offensively against Anomalies (so far?), only the mundane, so I want to see how that responsibility changes her.

Maybe she'll do some introspection, and learn to stop burning every bridge that looks at her wrong.

The world’s first printed book in Hebrew was Rashi’s commentary on the Bible, printed by Abraham ben Gart in Reggio di Calabria, Italy, in 1475.

Unfortunately, very little is known about the personal life of Abraham ben Garton. Most scholars believe he was born in Spain, and emigrated to Southern Italy's Calabria prior to the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492. Many other Spanish Sephardim also emigrated to Calabria following the expulsion.

The 1475 edition Abraham Garton created and employed, for the first time, a typeface based on a Sephardic semicursive hand. It was this same style of typeface that a few years later, when commentary and text were incorporated onto one page, would be used to distinguish Rabbinic commentary from the text proper. Ultimately, this typeface would be known as Rashi script.

The song of the siren that holds your desire

But death she is cunning and clever as hell

She’ll eat you alive
