Hey, let's have a #portfolioday with #art that's like... less than 5 years old, for once!

My name is Luís, I'm an illustrator from Lisbon.
Commissions not open (hopefully for a good reason - new personal work brewing), mostly looking for connections and followers!

Israel Blocked Humanitarian Aid To Gaza, Two Government Bodies Concluded. Anthony Blinken Rejected Them.

Blinken’s own experts at the State Department repeatedly told him that Israel was violating US and international law, and he ignored those reports and lied to Congress about it.

Blinken’s maneuvers to get weapons to Israel, in violation of US law, make him complicit in genocide.

Anyway, I appreciate you taking the time to think about this.

“Good” and “bad” are shorthand. You can’t easily debate when one or the other should be used because everyone has a different standard for when they use them. If everyone suddenly agreed with you, what would that change, in the world of actions? Would the harm actually being done disappear?

I don’t think you’re getting my point. “Good” and “bad” are just words. Splitting hairs over them is a rhetorical exercise. It doesn’t change anything. People make choices and those choices have consequences. The consequences are what matter.

This very quickly became one of the most important legal cases in transgender rights

As people are being threatened with prison for using the restroom, having their licenses pulled and are being forcefully detransitioned we are well past engaging in the intentionally myopic rhetorical opining that has led us directly to this point.

If you did this to my face we might be fighting.

This. TBC, the reason my family won't support anything HP-related is NOT because I have some grand moral view that it's only acceptable to support work created by good people. It's because she is literally, publicly using the $ from her books/show/games/etc to do bad things that hurt people I love.

all cities are either atlanta or nashville
NYC - Nashville
LA - Atlanta
Chicago - Atlanta
Seattle - Nashville
SF - Atlanta
Charlotte - Nashville
DC - Atlanta
Miami - Atlanta
Atlanta - interestingly, Nashville

We only want to separate the art & artist when the artist is Hannibal Lecter.

The artist clubs twenty baby seals & then makes a suit out of their dermises and all we want to discuss is the tailorship. We don't wanna discuss the seal clubbing addiction. We just wanna admire the suit judgement-free.

i like big butts and i cannot die

“So y’all hate Black people who are ICE agents?”

she's literally funneling the cash from all her various media ventures into a money gun and pointing it directly at whichever institution promises to hurt trans people the most. she's not even lying about it. she's just telling you that's what she's going to do if you give her more money

The first and last thing I’ll say about this whole HP series thing is that the best way to choke out an evil that still breathes is to deprive it of oxygen.

Don’t hate-watch it. Not even the trailer. Not even clips that pop up on TikTok. Don’t post about it.

Starve it. Make it irrelevant.

People smarter than me have said all that needs to be said about Harry Potter, but I want to note how irritating it has been to live in a world where billionaires purchase artificial popularity to try to prevent works of art from naturally falling off due to being out of tune with the culture.

This is a red herring. We are our actions. Privileged people are so concerned with being “good” or “bad”, as if what someone is called transforms what they are actively doing with their limited time on Earth. What are you choosing to do with your time?

US has caused $10tn worth of climate damage since 1990, research finds US, top carbon emitter in history, has ‘a lot of responsibility’ for causing ‘substantial’ harm globally, scientist says

im grabbing your hand to tell you. it’s not too late to start wearing a mask again. it’s better to wear a mask 1/4 of the time (or whatever your percent looks like) than not at all. there’s no shame in starting to be covid safe again even if you havent been for a long time. its okay

Once you’ve entered into an argument about, say, ethnic or religious cleansing, you’ve essentially legitimised the idea of somebody’s right to continue to exist is up for debate and that cleansing all the minorities and cleansing nobody at all are equally extreme or valid points of view.

you dont have to argue with everyone who tries to start an argument this isnt debate club you can jsut say "lmao no" adn go back to waht you were doing

It delights a fascist to advocate for incredible violence and, instead of being told to fuck off, hear people who have been successfully fooled into thinking they are actually having a civil debate.

Him: I am literally going to kill you
You, not telling him to fuck off: by that logic, it's-

The fascist isn't actually arguing, he's getting you to *think that you are in an argument*, an interaction where you admit the possibility that he may be right.

He's getting you used to playing along with his game, instead of you going "fuck you get the fuck out of here shithead"

“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

Seeing as there is an influx of people having bigoted Warhammer opinions recently, you should always remember this Sartre quote.

It was made about antisemites but it applies to pretty much every reactionary you will encounter online. They know they're being absurd, it's part of their tactic.

One reason not to argue with fascist incel losers is that you get really good at arguing with fascist incel losers.

Like any skill, less thought is now required.

After arguing all day long with fascist incel losers, you've trained yourself to be unable to have conversations with normal people.

The more you argue with fascists, the more used you get to acting as if you might change your mind on whether certain people are people.

And you are what you pretend to be.

Someone who argues all the time with fascists is not really arguing, the fascist is acting in bad faith. He's not arguing, he's getting you to act as if there's even a chance you might go "you're right, genocide is a cool idea"

A good rule of thumb is don't argue online about stuff you're not willing to change your own mind on.

Someone advocating eugenics, genocide? Unless you're willing to have your mind changed on them, it's completely fucking useless.

It's also why fascists love to argue shit.

every single app now is like “pay for our subscription or we’re giving your sensitive information to the cops. also, we‘re now giving your sensitive information to the cops.”

These 3 books have been revelatory for me this year, as far as thinking about how to address the current state of things using the blueprints provided by our ancestors.

None of this is new. We don’t have to panic & build everything from scratch.

You picking up what I’m putting down?

At least half a dozen top Trump administration officials appear in the Jeffrey Epstein files The degree to which each individual was connected to Epstein varies significantly, from a single email to years of communications.

The President, two of his current Cabinet secretaries, his former strategist, his biggest donor, and his pending Fed Chair nominee are all in the files of a pedophile who ran a sex trafficking ring, while the attorney general and a former Cabinet secretary let him get away with it.

Seems kinda bad?
