LEGENDS: THE GUNSLINGER (1998/2000) Acrylic on Watercolor Board - 36" x 24" Stephen King doesn't describe the tower in the early books of the Dark Tower series, but many of the main characters experience dream visions of the object of their quest. 1/3

This is how you do it right! No chainmail bikinis, no boob shaped armor, just realistic armor of the type a real woman warrior in the plate armor era would have worn (and beautifully rendered at that).

Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, let’s steal some of their policies. In Denmark: - Health care and college are free. - The starting wage is $22/hr. - Paid parental leave is 1 year. - Paid vacation is 6 weeks. - All workers get pensions.

You call your movie "Bram Stoker's Dracula," the title character ought to be the monster Stoker envisioned, not a whiney Byronic hero. In the books, Frodo is middle aged. LOTR was not supposed to be a coming of age story. 1/4

Tonight an unbelievable 34,000 people gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

"AI" bros claiming it helps disabled creators reminds me of the guy in The Dead Zone using a child as a shield when the shooting starts."Don't demand to be paid for your scraped work, that would put us out of business, and you'll be hurting disabled creators!" 1/2

Posting GARY PANTER'S SKETCHBOOK TIPS to save a life -- the site that used to host these took em down years ago, and they are as useful a list about this kind of thing as you will ever find. They are like a favorite dogeared paperback to me.

It takes me like an hour to lay all this out. @gilduran.com does it here in five minutes. This is about the coup behind the coup. Once you go down this rabbit hole, a whole lot more begins to make sense. Project 2025 is just the start. This is what it paves the way for. #techfascism #networkstate

SUNFLOWER (2010) Acrylic on Panel - 12" x 18" It's her sanctuary...an echo of something I experienced when I was younger. Anyone familiar with my work will know how much I’m drawn to concrete. Images like this pop into my head at unexpected times. 1/2

This is one of my all time favorite vampire novels. One of the most original and unique takes on vampirism I've read. Honestly, I don't think it "changed vampire fiction forever," but it probably should have. Glad to see Tor giving it a new edition.

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away. They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

Banger of a thread. Ms. Saintcrow gets it exactly right. This is also the current problem with Hollywood. Execs mistake cosmetic "window dressing" aspects of a successful original film for the authentic originality that made it popular, and so imitate the surface qualities instead of the heart.

Appalling. Back in the day, Bezos swore he wouldn't interfere with the Post's content. Since the non-endorsement the mask and the gloves are off, and now the Post is just a billionaire's bullhorn. A sad, shameful, & pathetic end to the paper that once exposed Watergate.
