I can never go back to the pre-covid no mask way of living bc i woked in a shop through the pandemic and developed the most grotesque, exaggerated way of smiling to offset my angry eyebrows that is so obviously not my natural smile and if i do that without my mask its kinda evil looking but is necessary so old people dont tell me to cheer up
A bad artists rendition with + without the mask neutral ft The Grimace
Probably the worst sketch ive ever done but sue me im not doing a full drawing for this
as much as the concept of Jesus being a fairly normal lad has its charms, im personally very intrigued by the idea of him being just⦠extremely weird. not even in a mysticalĀ sense, justā¦ā¦.staggeringly BIZZARRE.Ā
you go to the well to get some water, and hereāsĀ Miriamās boy, staring at the sky, completely still. his expression is unreadable. you hazard a hello and ask how heās doing, and he slowly, unblinkingly, lowers his gaze on you (heās 8 and is missing his frontal teeth, not that this is making you any less uncomfortable) and saysĀ āI cannot speak of the state of my being, Nathan son of Saul, my brother, but rejoice for the water you shall take today will be as pure as the soul of the children of Heavenā
ā¦you start sweating
normal person in 1st century Nazareth: making my way downtown, walking fast
*sees J boy, 8 yo, staring at you from across the street*
normal person: walking fasterĀ
even funnier, the only person 100% on board with his Prophetic Kid Talk is his mother Miriam, an otherwise placid, absolutely normal woman around 25 or so
kid JC, coming home at twilight, a single white dove following him and chirping with weirdly human-like precision:

her husband Yosef, a carpenter who only marginally got signed up for this:Ā
This post is so Christian, but itās the spicy kind of Christian that gets you murdered by other Christians for heresy, so Iām torn.
literally biggest form of compliment iāve ever gotten
that means the angels are babysitters then
here have more
You guys really need to read Christopher Mooreās Lamb, if you havenāt.
Always reblog Cryptid Jesus
I made more. cause itās fun
I love that you guys used their actual names
I did not consider Eldritch Baby Jesus.
God I know you have a sense of humor because otherwise thereās no explanation for the platypus and I hope it extends to comics about baby cryptid Jesus
Peak character design is a dark gradient on the limbs or fingers
Manchin is 72 years old. His actions are disgusting.
Context: 12 months paid leave in Canada.
Americans are so gaslit to believe they don't deserve family leave.
Context 2:
Yeah, we need to hold Sinema and Manchin accountable, but let's not forget the 50% of the Senate that's decided to not vote in favor of anything, anything at all, as long as the "other side" is in control
The 50 GOP senators would vote against their own paychecks if they thought it would hurt Democrats

No Noise November. everyone shut up
if i hear a single sound
what was that?
Robot dogs have been met with equal parts fascination and fear by the public, but their utility for military applications is becoming undeniable.
if you see one of these things take one for the team and light it on fire
oh god. in a very serious way that makes them much harder to fight. previous quadrofracts could be dealt with by use of a hammer to the mid-section. im assuming a well placed .45 round might do the trick now, but that means not getting noticed by fidobot. lets hope it has bad eyesight.
This is always where these damn thing were going and when we said it people would always say we were being killjoys and why couldnāt we ājust enjoy the dancing Robots?ā I guarantee these things will be deployed for āriot suppressionā in only a few years.
THIS THING SHOOTS 6.5mm CREEDMOOR WHAT THE FUCK. FOR REFERENCE, THIS IS WHAT THAT ROUND LOOKS LIKE COMPARED TO A 9mm
GOOD TIME TO SHARE THE BATTERY INFO AGAIN SO YOU CAN SHUT THESE DUDES DONE
[image: first tweet in a thread by Dr. Sarah Taber, who is quote-tweeting The Vergeās tweet that reads āTheyāre putting guns on robot dogs nowā and depicts the said robot dog. Dr. Taberās full thread is quoted below:]
PSA for anyone who might be dealing with robot gun dogs, from a farm robot specialist who wasnāt really looking at robot wrangling from the public safety standpoint but here we are.
I havenāt worked w police/military robotics so I canāt speak to exactly how these are built.
But I can tell you, IME roboticists can be really naive about environmental conditions: making robots sturdy enough to handle rain, dirt, & other outdoor realities.
For example! Iāve worked w a couple startups that do fruit picking robots. They build the thing, *then* call me in to figure out how to clean it.
And half the time you canāt. Bc the picking arm has all these delicate cameras & servos that canāt get wet.
Folks who build robots at this time tend to be focused on making it do cool things like see, jump, run, & somersault. So they can release teaser videos that make everybody go āwow what a fancy robotā
They tend to be less focused on actual service performance: DURABILITY.
Whatās this mean?
The joints, motors, cameras, & other sensors are more exposed than they should be.
Itās easy for water, road salt, grit, etc to get in there and cripple the robot.
I mean look at this thing. That housingās got more nooks & crannies than a dang English muffin. You think thatās watertight?
For robots that work outside, not even watertight is good enough.
Farms add surfactants (like dish soap) to sprays. They make the sprays stick to leaves & get into all the nooks & crannies of the plant.
So farm robots need surfactant-proof seals. Not just waterproof.
Otherwise after a few hours in the field, you have a mix of dew, mud, soil & grit, and whatever surfactants you put in your last pesticide
mixing together & working their way into all the robotās delicate parts. Scratching up the cameras. Jamming up the joints & motor.
If thereās any salt or acid in the mix, itās even worse!
Some soils have a lil salt in them, or an acidic pH. Itās actually pretty common!
The salts or H+ ions work their way into the machine & corrode the shit out of EVERYTHING.
Bye-bye expensive farm robot!
Now letās apply this to street settings.
Water. Dirt & grit. Road salt.
Just a little salt destroys metal! Even faster if itās mixed with water, acids, surfactants, &/or grit.
And again, dirt & grit destroy joints.
They scratch up camera lenses & otherwise interfere with sensors.
They also scratch up any corrosion-proof coatings the engineers may have put on there, & expose the metals to water, salt, & acid.
These robots look super-vulnerable to normal wear & tear.
They look even more vulnerable to a super-soaker filled with common household items like salt, vinegar, & just a lil dish soap. Maybe with a lil diatomaceous earth to bump up the scrubbing power.
If they donāt go belly-up from short circuits immediately, theyāre still looking at either an expensive tear-town, clean, & rebuild (takes the robot off the street for a few days)
or itāll go belly-up within a week or two.
Both options are REALLY expensive & frustrating for own
Especially if they get hit with water/salt/acid/grit/soaps ASAP the moment they hit the street again.
Then the robots wind up spending more time in the shop on life support than actually doing their job.
Thatās actually a pretty common outcome for automation!
Everyone gets excited about this fancy new machine thatās going to replace people. Then in real life it turns out to be broken all the time, canāt do shit, itās a giant money pit, & eventually the sponsors give up.
idk just some thoughts on outdoor automation from someone who buries the corpses of failed robots for a living
itās just really funny to me that these are supposed to be scary but probably canāt stand up to a water balloon full of pickle juice
uh⦠if you like āagricultural technology & the public goodā you will love my book, for which there is a fundraiser with just a few days left [as of 2021 October 17] & itās really close to the goal already š»
Crowdfunding production costs to finish the damn book | Check out 'Finish The Damn Book, Taber' on Indiegogo.
Important safety tip. Do not expose robots to dish soap, vinegar, or salt. That would be bad for the robot.
Thereās a lot of Scooby Doo stuff on Netflix

fat bodies, fat anatomy, and how body fat tends to work should be taught as standardly as skinny anatomy and how muscles work in art courses. fat bodies are not an outlier. fat bodies are not a minority and theyre not abnormal or wrong. fat bodies are normal and they belong in art teaching spaces as commonly as other anatomy, because fat bodies ARE normal anatomy. people have diverse bodies and there will never be a single body type that encompasses the "normal body type"
tldr; fat anatomy should be taught as a staple in art courses just like any other anatomy. this is fact <3
ive gathered various links to refs so that people who see this can actually access helpful info on how to draw fat people. first and foremost though, using references will always be the biggest help :)

the more i think about mcu spider-man the more i donāt like mcu spider-man
like mcu twink peter will never have the depth of our friendly neighborhood spider-man. literally any time they try and make spider-man super cool with access to a ton of sick tech and everything i start to really lose interest. the appeal of spider-man to me is that heās like just some guy who happens to have super powers. like you could just hang out with this dude. the ābiggerā they make him the more he loses that.
actually iām gonna elaborate on this further because spider-verse did this but they did it well and with purpose.
the peter from milesā dimension was super over the top, kinda larger than life. as pointed out by peter b. several times. however unlike other times theyāve done this it wasnāt just to try and make spider-man look cool, it was all a part of milesā narrative. miles was given huge shoes to fill and they used this as a tool to portray how small miles felt compared to peter.
but the difference between miles and mcu peter is that miles didnāt need any of that to become the spider-man he is today. one of his main role models in the film is peter b. whoās broke and off his game, but still manages to do amazing things.
thatās the appeal of spider-man. is that anyone can make a difference, no matter where youāre at in your life you can still be incredible.
Good comment via the person I reblogged from.
I think itās interesting that the scene from the end of The Amazing Spider-Man with the eggs is being put forward as the pinnacle of Spider-Man cinema ā and I agree, for the record ā because I donāt think people know how hard that scene got dragged when Homecoming was released. Iām fairly sure one of Homecomingās six screenwriters said something negative about it, although I canāt currently find the article where I saw it, but if you check out this review of Spider-Man Homecoming youāll see something along the same lines: āNo one wants to watch May chide Peter for forgetting the eggs when thereās way more interesting superhero stuff to get to.ā
Right, except I do, because the eggs in The Amazing Spider-Man were always there to remind the audience that Peterās great responsibility exists outside of his identity as Spider-Man as well as within it ā he has a responsibility to his aunt! Even over something as simple as bringing home the eggs heād previously forgotten to get! Itās meaningful because it shows us that responsibility is a multi-layered, multifaceted aspect of both Peter Parker and Spider-Man and something that is baked into the character, not just the costume. That he shows up beaten to hell, having played a large part in keeping New York from becoming lizard people, with his girlfriendās fatherās blood probably still on him, and that he pulls the worldās most busted package of like 100% broken eggs out of his backpack because he promised his aunt he would pick up eggs and that she embraces him is so important! And it got mercilessly dragged as not being exciting or cool enough! Not being enough of a superhero scene! TASMās Aunt May of the absolutely incredible āYouāre my boy and I wonāt hurt youā scene got called dowdy and not fun and pathetic because she was ājust waiting at home for the eggsā! And it drove me absolutely crazy! Justice for Peter treating May like sheās his mom and the most important person in the world to him and knowing he has a responsibility to her! Justice for the little humanizing elements that make Spider-Man ultimately a relatable story! Justice for the eggs scene!
One of the larger than life things that MCU Spider-Man badly remade is Peterās identity getting revealed.
This was one of the best scenes in the movieās franchise history:
Peter passes out after stopping the train and saving everyone in it, and gets carried by the passengers inside.
The juxtaposition of the superhero being saved by the people he almost died to help and repaying his kindness with a promise that his secret is safe. Thatās the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man the MCU could never conceive.
