I've been watching bits and pieces of the Sifl and Olly Show again (this short lived show from the late 90s on MTV hosted by two sock puppets - yeah really, look it up it's rlly funny) and it has the song United States of Whatever by Liam Lynch (who also co-created the show and was the voice/puppeteer for Olly) which is this really funny minute and a half long punk song that I love the vibe of. You can listen to it here, or if you wanna see the clip of the show with the song, you can check that out here [warning for flashing lights and images in the background]
But anyways, I'm SUPER happy with this piece!! I made it as a sort of companion piece to my Hit In The USA post from yesterday, though tweaked a couple things about it that I like better here. Mainly, made it so none of the text was blocked, making it easier to read. I also LOVE how the pose came out!! I used a reference for it and it really came through! Oddly enough, I'm especially proud of the hands here lmao.
Oh and don't worry, Shep's not smashing his main guitar, maybe this is an old, broken one or something haha. It's more abt the vibe lol
hey everyone! i got inspired by some really successful donation matches by @parrot-parent, @ibtisams, and @thehappysmiler, so i decided to do a similar one! i will be matching donations to UNRWA up to 500 usd until the end of february.
if you donate, please send me proof via a dm or ask (which i'll answer privately). just send me a screenshot of the receipt email in which the amount you donated is visible, and feel free to redact/crop out your name. i'll upload proof of my own donation, as well as the sum of how much we raised collectively, on the first of march!
if you're thinking "but i can only donate a little bit," fear not! every single little bit counts, so please consider donating that little bit if you can. we can accomplish a lot when we do it together ❤️🖤🤍💚
For real tho health freaks who scream about how sugar and salt will kill us all and try to push for restrictions on things like candy and chips for SNAP recipients or politicians who try from time to time to replace food stamps all together and give out Government Approved Staples like bread and peanut butter and Government Cheese are gonna kill a whole lotta sick and disabled people like
Diabetics
POTS sufferers
Hypotensives
People with peanut allergies
People with celiac disease or wheat allergies
The lactose intolerant
People who can't eat solid food
People who are undernourished for any reason and need all the calories they can pack on
So-called "picky eaters" who can't tolerate certain tastes and textures without getting violently ill
A myriad of other human conditions that cannot be neatly tallied into categories because the human body and human experience is vast and infinitely variable
But I don't think ableds really care about us and our health like they like to claim so they can harass us about it, do you?
i just had a moment where i realized that the new episode is on a friday and it made me remember this one song called run rabbit that i think was even used for a fan animation a few years back
Martin was humming that song to himself during one of the twitter spaces last month, actually.
