@Rightanglenews Sarcasm does not work in politics. It is all about impressions and sound bites. Using words and images like this, even though sarcastic, will not be seen as sarcasm but will be seen as proof of the accusation.
US Navy Secretary Hung Cao: “They call me a white supremacist, but I have one request for them when they give me my hood, make sure it’s got the little slits and not the circles so I can see better.”
@magattew Japan was aided in their development by US.
Currently the US opposes African development as they fear anything as a threat and demand subservient baby nation underling statehood from everyone even nato countries.
When Africa becomes prosperous, racism against Black people everywhere will drop dramatically.
That's not wishful thinking, you can actually watch this pattern play out in history.
The Japanese were heavily discriminated against in America until Japan became an economic power.
Then suddenly Japanese culture was cool, Japanese products were premium, and the hostility faded. The same happened with South Korea.
Prosperity rewrites how the world sees your people.
Nothing else even comes close.
From a sketch cover commission. Never did one before this so the paper quality surprised me. I've never 100% happy with bristol paper quality til now. #comicartist#fantasyart#sketchcover#bunnygirl
Oona Chaplin and Stephen Lang tell us how they felt when some of their scenes got cut from ‘AVATAR: FIRE AND ASH’.
“I accept when scenes or lines of mine are cut... but I don’t like it. I don’t have to like it, do I?”
@DiscussingFilm Instead of paying bloated salaries to celebrity performers they should spend the cash to improve the animation. Right now it's like a slide show with overpaid voice actors.
Robert Kirkman says they still haven't been able to convince Bryan Cranston to sign on for a role in ‘INVINCIBLE’.
“We're not going to stop offering him roles, he's not going to beat us!”
Unhinged officer pulled his gun on a man with a camera.
The encounter began when the videographer approached Officer Everette while the officer was conducting a routine traffic stop near the San Diego Mesa College campus.
Officer Everette noticed the man filming and became uncomfortable with a piece of equipment—a handheld stabilizer with a GoPro attached—that the videographer was holding. Everette claimed he "didn't know" what the device was and repeatedly ordered the man to put it down.
When the videographer refused, citing his First Amendment right to film in public, Everette unholstered his handgun and pointed it at the unarmed man for approximately 20 to 45 seconds
Backup arrived shortly after, at which point Everette holstered his weapon. The videographer eventually surrendered the GoPro but continued to record the interaction on his phone.
Following the viral spread of the video, Officer Everette was immediately placed on paid administrative leave pending an internal investigation by the SDCCD.
The department took the incident seriously, noting that the videographer was within his rights to film. However, records of specific settlements or private lawsuits resulting from this particular case are not as widely publicized as the incident itself. In many "First Amendment audit" cases like this, the focus often stays on the officer's disciplinary record or smaller out-of-court settlements that don't always reach a formal trial.
@Kneon Drop the idea that there's only a choice between Todd MacFarlane success and total poverty. Structure achievable goals , not lottery wishes. Pessimism is not the same as realism.
@Kneon Kneon, don't project your own failures in the comics biz as a baseline for others. If you had the quality of work & the business smarts to succeed you would have. Go cry to the Brian Pulidos of the world & see their response to you.
“Winning” in comics means being able to walk away on your own terms and not dying in poverty.
Preferably with your health and your sanity still intact.
Sadly very few people actually “win” at comics.
@RealAutismSpeak@Kneon We can't talk about Bill Watterson. He breaks up the pity party. Successful cartoonists and comic artists are all just lucky flukes.
@ComicBookBookie@Kneon Meanwhile , Frazetta's wife collected back the art Frank gave away , pumped up the value of it and built a substantial living for her family.
@Kneon I hate this quote. He gave his original artwork away for free and didn’t care about the business end until he noticed he was the only one not getting rich. He never played the game but complained when he lost.
From the Oona the Cave Bunny stories drawn in Sunday comics format. Sometimes I forget to mention these cave bunnies are super strong. #comicartist#amazonwomen#cavegirls#bunnygirls
