I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Cape Lifehack: In mosquito country a cape is GREAT at keeping them off without chemicals. Just don’t stand completely still — sway a bit to keep it swishing around your ankles. Spoken as someone who is a living mosquito magnet who got invited to an outdoor lakefront party one summer evening.

Still looking for ways to color my sketches that don't rely on over-rendering things. 13th century inspired again, but definitely not historical.

Y'all, this? This isn't the way. It's one thing to part ways, even acrimonious, w/an editor you don't agree with. It is an entirely different thing to try to tear them down because of it. This is bullying. Do better. #WritingCommunity

this is true in the sense that anyone who goes into something as complex as a prestige TV series saying "I want to make left wing (or right wing) art" is going to make something that sucks 9 times out of 10 people with political views can make great art, but the focus has to be on the art.

Not all pre-modern monarchies are absolute monarchies! Western European medieval monarchies, so far as I know, were not. Hellenistic monarchy arguably was. Traditional Argead Macedonian monarchy, I'd argue, probably wasn't. Most Bronze Age monarchy was. The Roman Emperor pre-235 mostly wasn't.
