    The protests against the Iraq war were massive and yet completely ignored in favour of lies, millions of pointless deaths, and a fuck ton of very profitable resources to extract.

    The Iraq war protests happened when I was a young teen and it broke my belief in the power of showing up and protesting being able to change anything.

    Corruption isn’t swayed by protests, only by money. If you can’t buy government backing for your cause, it’s dead in the water. Protesting against corruption is just going to get you arrested and/or put on a list of dissidents.

    Nah the logical conclusion is to assume the person who likes cheese also likes that billions of cows are being raped and forcibly separated from their calves, so the milk they produce can be mechanically extracted and sold for human consumption.

    You like cheese? Wow bro, that’s fucked up.

    Brody is a pedo who all the church ladies love to the point of turning against their kids if they say anything against him.

    Billy Bob is a deeeeply closeted homosexual who fantasises about murdering rent boys and actually might have, depending on where he was in the 70’s.

    Susan is just kinda stupid and annoying, but she does good charity work for people who actually need it and she really doesn’t want to hurt anyone, so she should get to live.

    Nah, my mother loved spiders and we somehow regularly had fucking massive house spiders crawling around on the ceiling of the house when I was growing up. I swear she must have been bringing them into the house at one point or something, we definitely had a well above average amount of spiders for a good few years there.

    There was only ever one at a time though, that I ever saw anyway, but they were those really big, hairy bastards that you can count the legs off from across the room and don’t look like they’re supposed to live in England.

    Fast too, so fast, and eerily silent as they skittered, with too many angles protruding from their fat bodies. If you couldn’t see them so starkly outlined against the white ceiling, you’d never even know they were up there, and they’d cross the room in less time than it took you to walk there yourself.

    My mum thought they were cool though and called them all Boris and she’d talk to them like they were bloody cats. Mad woman.

    I am (thank fuck) not my mother and shit scared of most spiders*. My mothers’ behaviour did not impact my perfectly rational fear of potentially dangerous creatures crawling around my house. I know giant house spiders aren’t dangerous to humans, but plenty of other big spiders around the world are and I don’t think it’s wise to try desensitise human children to this, especially as more and more species now will be migrating due to climate change.

    *Jumping spiders are cool, I like those ones. They’re surprusingly smart, and cute, and they’ve even evolved a vegetarian amongst them.



  • That’s a good challenge! I do this when I’ve mixed too much paint and am done on the og, as I have a few pieces going at the same time. Being able to see which era my stuff is from because they share paints is kinda cool.

    Acrylic, plus a few coats of different “finishing” paints/modpodge/glow/glitter stuff.

    Mixed into paints or just as top coats?

    Mixing things into funky coloured art potions is so much fun, a good portion of my art process is just playing with glitter and mica and glowy stuff, ha ha.

    Pva glue gets some really cool textures going when used over or under certain finishes, what were you using it for?


  • This is cool! What type of paint is there here? It looks like acrylic, and is the matte stuff poster paint or a matte mix in medium? I’m hella curious to see how this would rock tumble.

    My art style doesn’t really permit this sort of thing as I mix my own paints (pigments and binders) to my preferred quite runny consistency, and tend to work with a single colour at a time for each section, so palettes are kinda impractical for my purpose.
