Pebble & Snug!

I have to go with all the sculptors' and vase painters' fave, Dionysus. I kinda love that guy, but who is your favorite? Did I miss them? Is it Vesta? Tell me in the tags who it is, and I'm sorry I couldn't fit everyone in.

And while you are here, reblog and donate if you can to help a woman widowed by genocide and her young son and daughter. They should be safe and learning to read at school, not living in a cold tent on the beach in winter subject to rain and poisonous bugs. The prices in Gaza continue to soar as well, so please help in any way you can.

if you don't do anything else today,

Please have a moment of silence for the people who were killed instead of freed when news of emancipation finally reached the furthest corners of the american south.

have another moment for the ledgers, catalogs, and records that were burned and the homes that were destroyed to hide the presence of very much alive and still enslaved people on dozens of plantations and homesteads across the south for decades after emancipation.

and have a third moment for those who were hunted and killed while fleeing the south to find safety across the border, overseas, in the north and to the west.

black people. light a candle, write a note to those who have passed telling them what you have achieved in spite of the racist and intolerant conditions of this world, feel the warmth of the flame under your hand, say a prayer of rememberance if you are religious, place the note under the candle, and then blow it out.

if you have children, sit them down and tell them anything you know about the life of oldest black person you've ever met. it doesn't have to be your own family. tell them what you know about what life was like for us in the days, years, decades after emancipation. if you don't know much, look it up and learn about it together.

This is Juneteenth.

white people CAN interact with this post. share it, spread it.

Pep talk.

I had an idea for a while of redrawing Desuhiko’s sprites.

Especially his…hornier sprites.

For those, I want to raise the creep factor to the tens.

And then someone in a Discord server requested me to draw him even creepier.

Yeah, I tried way too hard on this one.

Maaloul is a Palestinian village in Galilee. In 1948, it was destroyed by the Israeli armed forces and its people were expelled, so they headed either to Lebanon or to the neighboring town of Nazareth. Since then, the former residents of Maaloul were only allowed to visit it once a year on the anniversary of the occupation, so it became a tradition to organize a picnic in the same place on that day.

The people of Maaloul village fled from it under the fire of Zionist gangs in 1948. This is a wound that will not heal. The people of the wound cling to it because it may one day chart the way back. The villagers visit the ruins of their village once a year to celebrate over them. It is an amazing insistence on clinging to the land and its memory. We were able to carry our wounds in our bags because the wound prevents forgetting. That memory, which was written in blood, is more lasting than all the ruins and all the artificial countries.

Something I doodled randomly.

I was there too.

I have not had time to draw anything for the RainCode anniversary, so please accept this doodle I did of the NDA all as worms when me and a few fellow RainCoders drew together!

ISRAEL HAVE STARTED BOMBING RAFAH! THE PLACE THEY INSISTED WAS A SAFE REFUGE FOR THE PEOPLE OF GAZA! ALL EYES ON RAFAH!
