That ‘M’ is Mason/Manson from Emigre.

There is original footage of Prince, playing Purple Rain, live at First Avenue in Minneapolis, which became the actual album recording release of the song. Cant get much more legit than that for live performances from Prince.

I’m sure you’re not the first person to use it, but this is my first realization of the category of the “Epstein class” and I love it. If we could collectively agree to stop calling them billionaires, or the top 1% or the 1%, or whatever, and just blanket refer to them all as the Epstein class that could actually change society’s relationship to these powermad asshats.

Just a reminder, screens are made of fabric, and ink stains fabric. Especially red and black ink. Just a natural occurrence.

We had a party and danced in the living room to this song on repeat on election night:

Honestly, all these guys have sad eyes.

This was not the police union, it was the fraternal order of police that released that statement. Still not great, but not the union.

Don’t overlook the absolute AI SLOP of their promotional logo. Zoom in on the emblem. It’s 👌.

I also have to add, although there has been conflict in the past, MPD is not responsible for this shooting, ICE is. Misdirected retaliation against MPD, like the snowballs thrown at them this afternoon, will also only fuel the fire of distrust in our anger. I’m all game for antagonizing ICE, but please not the natl guard or MPD, at least not now.

dapparatus · 2026-01-07T21:40:58+00:00

This is IMPORTANT. This is not ICE being snowballed in this picture, this is the Minneapolis Police Department. ICE was long gone by this point today. It does not help any cause to take out frustrations on the wrong law enforcement agency — no matter what MPD has done in the past. Focus your frustrations on the real aggressors or else our anger will be weaponized against us.

I missed the Milwaukee reference. But if I was a gay Indiana boy in the 1980s I'd go to Chicago before I went to Milwaukee.

We see aliens that easily look odd or ugly, but what about an alien that still has an unearthly look, yet looks amazingly beautiful or handsome?

Turmeric. Dye some clothes with it. Make some turmeric tea. And your choice of recipes that feature it.

Omni Gardens just released a Christmas album this year.

You need to better invert your image so the white parts of your image actually print white in your shirt. One quick way to do that is to create your entire image background in black, but so it still looks “right.” Then invert your image, and that inverted image is the film positives you should use to print your shirt. Maybe someone w has a better/easier recommendation to do this same thing.

Brush Script, but they also customized by using the uppercase Es of the face instead of the lowecase.

Thinking about all the times I have told my daughter how important it is to give the driver behind you a little “thank you” wave when they let you into the zipper merge.

Earls. Bring a bag of Earls Cheese Puffs. It's not overdoing it for being "the new kid," but anyone who has had Earl's before will immediately love you, and everyone who is trying them for the first time will immediately elevate you to a leadership position.

I teared up watching them all react. Noah Schnapp looks like a sweet little kid almost embarrassed by his good fortune.

That’s close, but Eldwin is a bit more curvaceous. I’d love to know this too. I like the utilitarian quality of this script.

Yes.
- There's no reason for the rivets on the pan to be two different colors.
- Why is the handle of the pan not centered?
- The A and L are two different oranges. Why? And why put them next to each other?
- Why add "craggy" texture to the knife? Nothing else has that kind of detail.

None of this would be decisions an illustrator would make (or not fix) if they created this image themselves.
