A post on threads from user stephens_bens. It reads 'I'll always remember an interview with Steve Buscemi on Bulleye, Jesse Thorn asked him "As an actor with many decades of varied and outstanding roles across your career, does it ever bother you that one of the things you will most be remembered for is a 3-second gif in which you're wearing a backwards baseball cap and carrying a skateboard?"
And without missing a beat, Buscemi replied "I'm carrying *two* skateboards."
And you know what? He is.'
Below that is a screen cap of Buscemi's famous "fellow kids" moment.

Still refining the typeface I'm working on. I figured at some point I likely need to start trying to promote a few of these side projects on social media.
Then I have to decide what to post. Posting self promo art stuff right now seems trite. The world is burning. Why should anyone care about some dumb font? OK, maybe I should say something about what's going on. At least that means...something? Should I spend time trying to be cute/clever? No, that feels like I'm not taking advantage of the bad situation. But I can't say nothing? ARGH. OK. I don't like ICE. I'll just keep it simple.
Fucking hell...EVERYTHING SUCKS RIGHT NOW.
Anyways, back to font making...

For what its worth, I say do whatever art, as Vonnegut says, makes your soul grow. Cute and clever is ok. All that is part of what we are trying to protect from evil.
Right on.

A Pepper by any other Name: a chart of fresh and dried peppers. Poblano peppers become Ancho if they're picked when red and dried; they're called Mulato if they're picked when they're dark brown and dried. Mirasol peppers are Guajillo when dried. Chilaca peppers are called Pasilla when dried. Jalapenos, when dried and smoked, are called Chipotles if they're picked when green, and Morita if they're picked when dried. Bola peppers are called Cascabel when they're dried.
TIL!

A somewhat washed out color photograph, possibly a Polaroid. An older Black man, shirtless and wearing sunglasses, with a gray mustache and receding gray hair cut short, is standing on a sunny day outside a white building (a house or possibly an apartment complex) with stone stairs. On his shoulder is a Siamese cat, looking at the camera. The cat is a beautiful baby but looks irritated.

"The great Chester Himes and Griot, his beloved blue point Siamese, named 'after the magicians in the courts of West African kings.' Himes also said that if he stayed away too long, Griot would wreck his studio and chew up his books."

Sounds like a typical Siamese, all right.

A drab, gray basement room. Heavy pipes hang from the ceiling. There is little to look at in this place: a white analog clock, a heavy gray door in the wall, the left edge of a bulletin board to the right of it. Under the pipes, a ghostly white figure holds a mop, sweeping a polished dark floor. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

I saw the clip of them being thrown. Pretty hilarious, especially when I've sticks to the vehicle!
What do they have in those tactical knee backpacks?
@intervalometer Probably their gas masks…
And hopefully a strap harness, because it would be a waste to not use all those dongs.

An illustration on a page, surrounded by dashed lines with scissors icons, letting you know it is to be cut from the page. The illustration is cartoony and just black lines on white.
The illustration shows a teakettle steaming. It has lines to make it look like it is hopping off a surface, and it has an anthropomorphic face that looks angry. There are clouds of steam and hearts in the background. The text reads "I'm a little teapot, short and stout, I'll whistle for freedom and kick ICE out!"

This drink from Tropical Standard incorporates both an egg white and gum syrup for texture, and has a somewhat unusual preparation: dry flash blend, add ice and continue flash blending, then double-strain into your glassware. This results in a highly emulsified drink with a nitro-like texture. All of the ingredients are slightly outside the typical tiki flavor profile, and the inclusion of mezcal and spiced cranberry bitters truly transport you to the drink’s namesake time and place.
Full recipe:
- 5 drops saline solution
- ½ tsp. Bittermens New England Spiced Cranberry Bitters
- ½ oz. egg white
- ½ oz. strained tangerine juice
- ¾ oz. strained lime juice
- ¾ oz. gum syrup
- 2 oz. mezcal
- garnish: grated cassia cinnamon

Pastel drawing underway in a, perhaps, Surrealist style. On gray canson paper, chairs attend a table with orbs/blobs on a checkered tablecloth. Working out the portals.

I finally started leaving my house, and met up with some artists, and maybe have a gallery. At the coffee place, current and retired teachers, and artists meet and talk. I started this piece the other day, there, on a gifted piece of paper, I worked on it there, again today. There were several artists at work, here and there, around the place. I Got News For You, will be the name of the piece, when it is finished.

#RIP Greg Brown.
Once upon a time, I worked the weekend graveyard shift at a convenience store so I could catch up on some bills. I would record Night Flight on my trusty VCR, then watch it when I got home to let the necessary caffeine buzz due down a little before I went to bed. This is the first time I had heard of Cake. I just read that Greg Brown has passed away after a brief illness.

i have had seven "Bad" Moto Guzzis so far in my life.
Sad news. Such a distinctive musical style
His guitar sound on those first two albums was perfection. A gritty, grungy counterpoint to the rest of the band.
One of my all time favorite bands. So sad to hear this.
