More PG image of "The Marauder" from Evil Dead Rise.
What I pictured in my head, not just one person. But a bunch of people fused together cranking out posts, like that thing. I'd probably not look it up unless you want to be grossed out.

Obviously I'm being hyperbolic, but it does feel like this sometimes.
I dig the culture, I think the dozens of you out there are fine people and I appreciate the tone the majority has established of being open-minded and inclusive.
I shut mine down by overheating it.
A straight jacket in the summer makes sense for some.
Once you remove the tag the ancient protection seal is broken. Without it the monster that lives under your bed is now allowed on your bed. The monster doesn't eat you or anything. The monster likes to warm it's cold feet on your back and steal all the covers, so it's a terrible sleeping partner.
Do you want Cthulhus, because this is how you'll get Cthulhus.
I agree it's weirder that people don't recognize poor people as humans with human needs.
It's ok to stop and get a $7 coffee sometimes and still be poor. You are allowed to spend $100 at a bar and be poor. Not everyone is mismanaging their money that got them to be poor, some of them grew up in it and stay that way.
Some poor people know there is no miracles going to pull them out of a shitty situation, doesn't mean they need to live a life of fucking toil and despair. Everyone needs to get off their fucking backs for enjoying a moment of what most well off folks get to enjoy without a thought.

Another of my top fav illustrators today! Been a good day to scroll. It was wild he was once commissioned to do a Chipotle bag. Should have bought one to keep.

This artwork by Norm Saunders was created for the 1962 Mars Attacks trading card series from Topps. Based on sketches by Wally Wood and Bob Powell, Saunders painted the final image in oil for Card #17, “Beast And The Beauty”.
An earlier version featured a man in bed, but the published card replaced him with a woman, a common pulp convention of the time to heighten drama and appeal. The series, conceived by Len Brown and Woody Gelman, became infamous for its lurid sci-fi violence and was briefly pulled from stores before gaining cult status.

This artwork illustrated by Phillipe Druillet was originally appearing on the cover of Métal Hurlant N° 2, a French comic anthology of science fiction and horror comic stories published by Les Humanoïdes Associés founded in December 1974 by comic artists Mœbius, Jean-Pierre Dionnet, Philippe Druillet and financially backed by Bernard Farkas.
Métal Hurlant predated and inspired the American publication Heavy Metal (1977). Early issues of Heavy Metal directly translated and reprinted stories from Métal Hurlant, featuring the same artists (Moebius, Druillet, Caza, Bilal, etc.).
Phillip Druillet has a fascinating body of work you can explore further on his personal site philippedruillet.com.
