Series of recreating classic artwork in my style (gay)
These are the illustrations of mine that get reposted the most without credit lmao so if you’ve seen these in the wild, it me
What I love about this is that, I mean, it’s a fairly classic gag, right? A character putting themselves in the trash? But the way this is animated conveys a bit of how physically awkward it would be to actually do that in real life. The little wobble as she tries to balance on one foot, her guitar case getting caught on the lip, the way she doesn’t quite fit all the way in. They really wanted to get across that this isn’t just a visual metaphor, she actually stepped into a trash bin, diagetically, and it looked dumb as hell.
Never forget that during the 2020 US presidential election season, while one of the largest popular uprisings in human history was occurring, mutual aid networks were seeing an unprecedented surge in response to the pandemic, and fascist violence and rhetoric was ramping up rapidly, liberals were still pissing their pants and hollering "well what ELSE do you EXPECT us to DO!!!!" whenever the thought of taking some kind of action other than just voting was brought up
That was when I realized that reaching out to "blue no matter who" libs is just as hopeless as reaching out to conservatives. We'll be here when you decide to pull your heads out of the sand - until then, I'm not wasting my time
Liberals: “Well, what else do you expect us to do???”
Mutual aid groups: “This?”
Collectives that cook for people who need food: “This?”
Prisoner support groups: “This?”
Networks that provide access to abortions for those who can not access them in their own state or country: “This?”
Activists that fill potholes and remove anti homelessness spikes: “This?”
Collectives that organize transformative justice and community healing so people can organize safety and resolve conflict without calling the police: “This?”
Activists that provide free babysitting to others so they can do important community work: “This?”
Activists that distribute information about how to change the world: “This?”
Liberals: “There’s just nothing I can do but vote and talk about voting. :( “
also as a 22yr old who has been on tumblr basically daily for the last six years or so
i’m thinking it’s time to start weaning myself off of this goddamn shitstorm of a website
how’s that going bestie
Sometimes time stamps really do add to the joke
that clip of the blues clues guy saying during the process of being hired to be on the show the kids were shown a "conventionally attractive" guys clip and his clip to some kids and they enjoyed him bc he looked like someone who would actually need help is how i feel about the main guy from that show the bear
i have to fucking help him and tell him where mr fox hid his spatula
god how much would it rule if mitch mcconnell had a massive heart attack or stroke and died live on CSPAN? i wouldn’t even mind all the huffpo stinkpieces about how celebrating his death makes you just as bad as republicans
in my rich imagination of this scenario, they would obviously cut the live feed as fast as possible, but not before we get to hear the sound of his head bonking off the podium on his way down
then hyperpop musicians would sample it
I still think about this. This could still happen.
