Watching any green or blue-green mineral being ground to make pigment in these, praying it's just rough glass or some shit and not any of the almost always notably poisonous green minerals:

Always a good time to burn down yet another village!

"Pretty Pretty Please I Don't Want to be a Magical Girl" is a series that follows Aika, a reluctant magical girl, her new friend, Zira and magical mascot, Hoshi. These days, all Aika wants is to be a normal girl but with her "nemesis" Eclipse and the all powerful Lady DeVoid causing trouble, that dream seems to be unlikely.

More under the cut!

This is Where the Future Bleeds is a fantasy set in a vividly imagined land, where two women (who happen to kiss) are the key to healing the broken sky.

Ask yourself, how does this piece make you feel? (No wrong answers)

Look for an artist statement nearby. What does it say about the artist and their relationship to their work? What does the artist say that they are trying to convey with their art? What contextual clues can you pick up from what they say about their background, or what they omit?

Look at the title of the piece. What is the artist saying about their work by naming it that, either explicitly or implicitly?

Look at the medium. Is there anything about the piece that stands out to you, knowing what it's made of?

Look at the year it was made. What cultural events might have been happening around this time? Was this piece part of a particular art movement? What was the purpose of that art movement, and what was it trying to say?

you can and Should engage for a moment with a piece! actually look at it! give it some thought!

art is a two-way conversation between the dumb shit i drew and your thoughts in your head!!!!! that's the whole point !!!!!!!!!!

2026 - 2025 - 2024 - 2023

in spite of it all, happy 2026 pride.

you can download current and past hi-res versions of these over at my ko-fi (ok to print for personal use): https://ko-fi.com/mxmorgan/shop/freedownloads

you can also snag shirts here which go to various orgs: https://mxmorgan.threadless.com/collections/pride

these get reposted a whole lot from here to reddit to twitter to tiktok and on and on, and i don't personally care whether or not i'm credited. i made these for everyone to use, enjoy, and find meaning in them. i appreciate folks who do credit me, but if able, please at least link to the threadless shop in the previous post - folks can get an official shirt where 90% of earnings go to trans led orgs focused on mental health (which is an important matter in general, but very personal to me) and not from a scam bot site selling AI-churned maga garbage where you probably won't get one anyway. i also suggest downloading the files from my ko-fi - they are free/PWYW and you can use them to make your own shirt, patch, embroidery project, whatever. tips are always nice, cuz i do like a pizza now and then, but never required for download.

Greece and Cyprus have been stated to be a target for Israeli "investors" and settlers, as a part of the EU it is a safe retreat from counterstrikes onto Israel from the countries it bombs. About 60% of all land and property purchases from foreigners in Greece are done by Israelis.

And on top of that recently massive amounts of public land/beaches in Vlore was sold to Israel by Albanian president Edi Rama. Barbwire fences have been put up around the beaches and land and have been closed down to the public, including one of the very few islands that Albania has.

Said island also has one of the last deltas in Europe, which is considered a reserve due to its importance for the local environment/ecosystem. And development on it has already begun, without announcement. Many trees on the fenced out land have been cut. Locals aren't allowed to go past the fence, many of whom also own property behind it and are being cut off of their land.

There has been protests, the fences were taken down once but they were reinstalled and are now being patrolled by Albania's own police.

Edit: it turns out I was wrong about a few things, first, the Israeli investors in Greece account for 40-50% of foreign land purchases, with the highest estimate I could find saying 57%
