Screaming, crying, throwing up

LO Hades and Persephone are like Elon Musk and Grimes, they're a vapid pair of narcissists whose only interest in one another is sex and power and they both pride themselves on being smarter than they actually are 🥴

it's a rite of passage for many artists who grew up on how-to-draw books, esp in the mid 2000's 😌💓

(real ones know the sequel was even better tho 🤙)

Nurses and doctors across America will beg and plead with you to get your flu shot “early” so you can build up immunity to the known mass serial killer called influenza. Yet, most people who die from the flu didn’t really. They died from pneumonia, MRSA superbugs and a crippled immune system caused by the very institution that gave them the flu shot in the first place.

First off, you can’t “build immunity” by injecting mercury into your muscle tissue. Second, the flu that spreads around America can be one or more of a dozen strains, on up to twenty. The influenza vaccine is just a “shot in the dark” (pun intended). The CDC has no idea which strains to include, and they most often guess completely wrong, then admit it, while telling you to get the shot anyway, “just to be safe.”

The flu shot is a junk science scheme that gives you a bad version of genetically modified influenza

What a hoax and a Ponzi scheme. You invest in “free medicine” and you get deathly sick. Why would the CDC and the vaccine industry want to get the strains correct anyway, when they profit more off chronic sick care? The US government is actually seizing control of every American’s immune system with the dreaded flu shot. Wake up.

Sometimes even way cuter like this stud muffin here

But it turns out that these guys here are way more bird-like than the original chocobo design. The chocobo first appeared in Final Fantasy II (1988) on the NES. Its original render looked like this:

That's the world map. Originally, the idea was that the whole party of four would ride on the back of one chocobo (unlike the later chocobos designed to be ridden by a single rider). And so Yoshitaka Amano designed for the official artwork gigantic two-legged reptilian bird that could travel around the world with multiple riders. The first official chocobo artwork looked nothing like the chicken-thing we now know:

Fucking awesome right? One more thing: it was possible to summon a chocobo into battle in Final Fantasy III using "Chocobo Rage." The game manual featured artwork for moves and items and featured this one for Chocobo Rage:

This interpretation of a chocobo quickly fell out of fashion. The concept art for Final Fantasy IV (1991) had already moved on to the chicken design we're more familiar with:
