Dr. Witch, not witch-doctor

You're hot as hell. Can i dm you? I'm not a fascist.

also this is part of a disturbing but sadly not uncommon attitude that progress = women (specifically women most of the time) showing more skin. because not showing skin is "following irrational religious modesty mandates" like the man on twitter says

hello! just wanted to give a little heads up that there’s a new vampire farming sim, moonlight peaks, that recently released. it has a really diverse cast of dateable characters, but, as a warning to any potential players of color, and especially Black players, they offer two styles of character portraits (one more realistic a d one more anime style) and the second anime style removes the ethnic features of the non-white dateables. the worst, by far, is elvira, the Black vampire bartender who has her wide nose changed to the typical anime point, fuller lips almost completely removed, and textured hair straightened. the devs have also come out and said they allow genAI modding in their discord (including portrait mods that either whitewash the characters or turn them into stereotypes) even encouraging and supporting some AI vibe-coders. their social media manager has also posted genAI character pictures, only removing one because it was nsfw when the ai and nsfw was pointed out. the fandom is also pretty racist, many claiming there are no attractive male dateables except for Death, the faceless grim reaper, and Ridge, the white lumberjack looking werewolf, and begging for another white character, Ridge’s brother, to be made romanceable because none of the others, noteably majority men of color, are attractive enough.

I travel to France quite often, but I have a special love for the south and its lavender fields. Whenever I think of France, those endless purple landscapes are the first thing that comes to mind. I’m sure there are lavender fields in other regions too, but it’s the ones in the south that have stayed with me the most.Three years ago, I traveled through southern France, visiting Montpellier and several beautiful towns along the coast. I also visited a monastery, wandered through the lavender fields, and came home with hundreds of photographs that I later shared on my social media.Some time later, those memories inspired this painting. Of course, I didn’t paint the scene exactly as I saw it. I made the colors richer, the sunset brighter, and the atmosphere more expressive. That’s what I love about Impressionism—it isn’t about copying reality perfectly, but about capturing an emotion. Perhaps this wasn’t the exact feeling I had at that moment, but it’s the emotion that remained with me as a beautiful memory of that journey.

the most terrifying part of wreck-it ralph was definitely the arcade owner hooking up every single machine to the same power strip
