Media literacy ain't dead, it was just heavily mangled in a collision with a '98 Subaru. Check out my website for a little bit of everything: Catch me live on YouTube...sometimes:

So funny enough I haven't seen 'Them!' but I have seen a sci fi movie about killer ants from the 70s directed by Saul Bass, you know, the credits guy. The main difference between these movies: regular sized ants. The threat is regular sized ants.

The beauty, the grace, the aura, it's awe inspiring.

Friend made a better observation about the Platner situation than I ever could

Screenshot of discord chat. Text at top reads "This is what's happening to platner supporters on bluesky today"
In the center there is a clip of Diary of Wimpy Kid where the mom stands over roderick. The text on the image reads "do you have anything you want to say to women? I'm sorry women."
There are 3 100 react emojis

So alas, while it's one of the best psychological triller/horrors ever made, the fact remains that whenever Bill's on screen it just feels like this:

In Lex's defense for the whole Rouge thing, he does seem to have a general weakness to furries

3 panels from a comic book. Lex Luther, clad in sci fi armor, is attacked by an antropomorphic butch bear woman brandishing a blood laden bowie knife and a sadistic grin. The bear woman is Sam, the protagonist of the comic Beneath the Trees where Nobody Sees. She is an experienced serial killer who has been operating for multiple decades.

Well that's not the issue. The issue is that in the later half of the 20th century, the US didn't want to pay for a dedicated passenger rail network. Service was massively cut back and to save costs, they made deals with freight railroads to use their tracks...

At no point in this film does anyone 1. Go to Brazil 2. Mention Brazil 3. Reveal their from Brazil 4. Engage in actions or imagery evocative of Brazil 5. Do or say anything whatsoever related to Brazil

I say this as a child of the suburbs: just don't. #urbanism

For pictures of peak American suburbia. Huge mcmansions on broad streets with little to no trees. They are captioned as such:
1. Turn back
2. This is no place of honor
3. No esteemed deed is commemorated here
4. What is here is dangerous and repulsive to us

Alright! I officially have a page for my webcomic up on my site. embeds don't work great so for now you'll still see comics here as they're posted, with a link provided to the full collection on my site. ccsynan.com/red-research...

a four panel webcomic. A woman with horns (Taurus) talks to a frowning clown (Sergent Chuckles)
Panel 1:
Chuckles: Welcome to Relic. All of us found our way here one way or the other. No one knows what this place is, no one knows their way out.
Taurus: What?
Panel 2:
A massive cloud appears with stars shooting out.
Unseen cloud entity: Chuckles you simply -must- tell me when a newbie arrives. Your intro is SO dull
Panel 3:
A woman in clubbing attire (CL.IO) appears out of the cloud.
CL.IO: welcome to RELIC darling. Your premier destination for being nowhere at all! I'm CL.IO your-
Taurus: SHUT THE FUCK UP PIXIE STIXS
Panel 4:
CL.IO: well that's just rude-
Taurus (to Chuckles): What do you mean no one knows the way out?!
Chuckles: Please don't shake me it's demeaning

RED number 4, only 18 weeks after I said I'd start doing it weekly. Winter was rough okay? Anyway I'm gonna keep trucking on this cause I really wanna explore this setting with all ~8 of you. Get ready for a massive style change though. I'm not even using the same drawing software anymore.

Another thing I've started work on is a series of videos for the CCS YouTube channel. I'm only in the scripting phase and not sure how far I'll get, but I've got the premise down. Review the #engineering and #history of every single bridge in the city of Philadelphia.

Anyone remember the Last Unicorn? I researched it recently and I was just in awe of how bizarre this 50 year old children's fantasy movie is. Especially given the cast. Jeff Bridges sings folks. He sings. He is not good at it #70cinema #animation

Movie poster of the Last Unicorn. It depicts artwork of a thin and delicate unicorn taking on a huge, flaming red bull.

Another #drawing done in #krita. Overall happy with the lines and design but might do another version adjusting the color. Contrast didn't come out quite like I hoped #OC #art #characterart

It's been a long time since I've posted any #drawing that I've done. Part of the reason is that I've been updating my process, which includes buying a new tablet and learning #krita with any luck you'll be seeing a lot of this in the near future. #art #characterart #OC

Somber piece of #characterart I did a while back with no particular time or place in mind for inspiration or commentary. Unfortunately the relevance of the subject matter is ever green.

A woman in a slender bullet proof vest stands with a somber expression. Behind her, a flight of bombers pass behind her. They launch flares with huge trails of smoke. The flares illuminate the scene.

This is one of my personal favorite pieces of #characterart. I drew this shortly after seeing the trailers for Death Stranding, a game I am very fond of, and tried to capture that same feeling of setting out in a beautiful but hostile wilderness.

A woman stands before a vista of a boreal forest. She wears hiking clothes and is kitted out with gear, pouches, tools and weapons. She wields a strange gun with a large rectangular break on the front.

Thank you to everyone that has followed my page so far. I've got so many projects in the pipeline that I'm eager to show people in the future. I'd also like to announce a new goal for this account. If I get to 250 followers, I'm going to set up public discord for art and gaming.

A thin woman in glasses and a sweater wraps a coat around herself while brandishing a pistol. Her sleeves are rolled up and there are strange tattoos on her wrist. Behind her, helicopters circle and enormous tentacles rise over the horizon.

A woman stands in front of a city park at dusk. The light is pink in hue. The light reflects in her sunglasses. She wears a luxurious red silk coat and ultra wide jeans, and green vest and gauntlets. She carries a Zweihander with a wavy blade in a leather sling. She wears sunglasses and smiles, the pink light reflects in her sunglasses.

Illustration of a woman. She wears flowing red and green robes and a massive red and green fan. We can see her bare thighs and her chest, where there are numerous tattoos. Some are classic prison tattoos, some are Christian Religious tattoos. Her head is turned to one side, on the back of her head she wears a gold and white mask. The mask wears a sly expression, she wears a pained expression.

A woman playfully holds the skirt of her long Edwardian dress. She wears a brimmed hat and carries a parisol. She does not appear to be human. She has large eyes and a huge mouth full of long sharp teeth. She has a cheerful disposition Behind her is a vignette of the sea, a distant cloud grows over the horizon. A sailboat skirts by in the middle distance.
