cumshitter posted:just do it at your own pace its all good Last year I wrote in BASIC the alt-right personal formula, does that help 10 has problems that are self-caused; 20 vehemently refuses to acknowledge that they are to blame; 30 scapegoats others for these problems; 40 finds on the internet others who are similarly afflicted, and provide mutual reinforcement for their toxic worldviews; 50 becomes more toxic to others/problems that started this become worse; 60 goto 10 In other "does this help" I'm reading a book on Sea Monsters, where the author walks us through how sea monsters change from myths to scientific realities - sometimes spending a really long time in between those two points. Anyway, there are a lot of books now in the public domain that often have really weird fictional/non-fictional encounters with Sea Monsters that often don't make sense. They might make good material for a find-replace; god knows they seem to capture some modern politicians Also the part on sea serpents gets a bit weird because it starts describing some sort of Cryptid that is not a 20 ft sea snake but a weird described something with "a head like a horse" From Victor Hugo's "Toilers of the Sea" quote:No grasp is like the sudden strain of the cephaloptera. It is with the sucking apparatus that it attacks. The victim is oppressed by a vacuum drawing at numberless points; it is not a clawing or a biting, but an indescribable scarification. A tearing of the flesh is terrible, but less terrible than a sucking of the blood. Claws are harmless compared with the horrible action of these natural air-cups. The talons of the wild beast enter into your flesh; but with the cephaloptera it is you who enter into the creature. The muscles swell, the fibres of the body are contorted, the skin cracks under the loathsome oppression, the blood spurts out and mingles horribly with the lymph of the monster, which clings to its victim by innumerable hideous mouths. The hydra incorporates itself with the man; the man becomes one with the hydra. The spectre lies upon you: the tiger can only devour you; the devil-fish, horrible, sucks your life-blood away. He draws you to him, and into himself; while bound down, glued to the ground, powerless, you feel yourself gradually emptied into this horrible pouch, which is the monster itself. Or maybe social media Hugo also did his own black and white ink-wash paintings for his book quote:Philosophy in her turn studies these creatures. She goes both less far and further. She does not dissect, but meditate. Where the scalpel has laboured she plunges the hypothesis. She seeks the final cause. Eternal perplexity of the thinker. These creatures disturb his ideas of the Creator. They are hideous surprises. They are the death’s-head at the feast of contemplation. The philosopher determines their characteristics in dread. They are the concrete forms of evil. What attitude can he take towards this treason of creation against herself? To whom can he look for the solution of these riddles? The Possible is a terrible matrix. Monsters are mysteries in their concrete form. Portions of shade issue from the mass, and something within detaches itself, rolls, floats, condenses, borrows elements from the ambient darkness, becomes subject to unknown polarisations, assumes a kind of life, furnishes itself with some unimagined form from the obscurity, and with some terrible spirit from the miasma, and wanders ghost-like among living things. It is as if night itself assumed the forms of animals. But for what good? with what object? Thus we come again to the eternal questioning Hermann Melville, on a tear in Moby Dick, about the inherent evil of whiteness: quote:This elusive quality it is, which causes the thought of whiteness, when quote:BOOK I. (_Folio_), CHAPTER I. (_Sperm Whale_).—This whale, among the I WROTE THIS: quote:Below the thunders of the upper deep,

I MADE A BUNCH OF TROML PRINTS AND I AM SELLING THEM Here is the gallery of how I made the prints, compiled by forums poster yogafire I am going to make a series of 45 of them with different names of Trumo. I was going to destroy the block but I changed my mind and I will keep it for embossing trump's face onto leather covers of the book of C-SPAM later. They cost $10 a piece plus shipping. I tried making a webshop but quickly gave up so just PM me. Or post here if you don't have PMs to complain about this system. Here's what the webshop would have looked like:

Yeah, I'm numbering them on the back with 1/45 or whatever number you get. There will be 45 with unique names signed underneath. After that I will modify it by carving off some details (some wrinkles and the shoulder on the left maybe), so that the image on those original 45 can never be reprinted from the same block again, but so that I can still use the block itself later for the book cover.

Don’t forget Bloodborne runes, vaguely inspired by the “yellow sign” from The King In Yellow.
