“I told him at the time to stop working, because ICE was arresting everyone,” Sakariye’s cousin told me. But Sakariye refused. “He believed ICE was looking for criminals.”

Today is my birthday (turning 30), which is the only time each year when I ask you for a repost should you like my art. Have a good day! 🦦🌿✨️ - Simon

Andy Merrill (Brak) is an Amazon delivery driver. Carey Means (Frylock) got CHF from/exacerbated by COVID & was recently working as a restaurant dishwasher. C. Martin Croker (Zorak) died of sepsis from an infected tooth he couldn't afford to get treated. Capitalism destroys both art & artist.

Here’s a cleaner Wildwood promo pic, without all the text on it. It really gives you a sense of what the Landscapes department did. We hand made every asset you see here.

Two nights ago, I said Trump had been using our troops as pirates in Iran and a Republican got mad. Well… the president just admitted it. He literally bragged about doing piracy.

we all know I have no life, so:

We didn't deserve this day.

Hayao Miyazaki films start in his sketches—his "image boards." It’s a habit he’s kept up for 60 years. He works fast and loose, mainly in pencil and watercolor. Perfection isn't the goal. But you can trace his growth through the pictures. We explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/the-image-...

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war. The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been “inundated” with more than 110 complaints. One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…

Aliya Rahman was arrested at the State of the Union last night, and had to go to the hospital.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

There have already been 25 data center cancellations or postponements this month, according to @macroedgeres.bsky.social. That's nearly as many as the previous 6 months combined.

Now the actual military has to dress like it’s not the military cuz federal law enforcement agencies dress too much like the military

Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her.

ICE kidnap 17-year-old U.S. citizen working at Target then dump him bleeding and crying miles away in a Walmart parking lot… 🤬

“Babies Are Freezing to Death in Gaza. Israeli Policy and the World’s Inaction Are to Blame”

The CBS 60 Minutes Doc confirms what we knew: The U.S. is currently using our tax dollars to imprison brown people with no criminal record in torture camps overseas. It’s no wonder administration shill Bari Weiss pulled this off the air: www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjY7...

Uploaded both issues of A Gleaming (2018 & 2020) onto my itch for one time purchase. Still think fondly of these books and would love to one day finish this weird story. kumerish.itch.io

RIP Drew Struzan - a man whose talent and imagination etched onto so many minds throughout the last 40+ years. His art & posters are some of the first visuals I think of when I think about cinema - an invitation to watch these stories and worlds. A massive loss 💔

Animation test for "The Black Knight", an aborted animated feature film project by Genndy Tartakovsky (2019). The story of a 20 feet high Knight Armor controlled by a knight inside using ropes, pulleys, and levers. The setting is around the 14th century. instagram.com/p/DPEqSjkCXyd/

ICE has agreed to leave. The collective action worked.

For the volunteers on one boat trying to reach Gaza, crew duties and history lessons, hope and anxiety coexist.

THEY ARE BUILDING A TENT CITY FOR THE NATIONAL GUARD SO THEY HAVE SOMEWHERE TO STAY AS THEY TEAR DOWN HOMELESS PEOPLE’S TENTS FOR ONE MILLION DOLLARS A DAY

“It’s just a tool! People used to hate on photoshop too.” Take away my photoshop, take away my tablets, I can still draw. Take away your plagiarism machine and what are you gonna do? Shout prompts at me?

More than Meets the Eye🌱

Another portrait study practice! More layered textures this time.

Take a moment to give a shout out to the amazing organizations in #roc that turn to actual creators to make artwork for their projects instead of AI generation. Seneca Park Zoo hires artists & knows why it matters. RMSC supports arts in the sciences. The Little Theater! Please add to this list!

Our feature artist/ref today is on FORESHORTENING ARMS by @ruchikapose! The MID-POINT of the arm ( here marked with WHITE bands) SHIFTS BACK VISUALLY when foreshortening - combined with the OVERLAP caused by the WIDTH of the upper forearm, we see VERY LITTLE of the UPPER ARM!

This week, ICE illegally denied me entry into a processing facility in my district, and today, they released a statement saying I “[gave] the appearance of a political stunt intended to generate publicity rather than pursue genuine oversight.” I have some thoughts.🧵
