#StarTrek

Star Trek The Original Series scene. We're in a red lit away planet room. Kirk is standing and talking to a woman in an up-do haircut wearing a shimmery dress. Scotty is standing behind them looking suspicious. Uhura sitting in the background listening intently. Kirk's hands are extended out in a 'what gives?' motion. Closed caption reads, "Please explain unhappy."

The big brave ICE warriors barricaded themselves into a federal building and waited for the LAPD to rescue them, after they turned up mob-handed and combat ready in the streets of LA yesterday.

This clip should really have "Take The Power Back" by RATM dubbed over it ✊

You're probably wondering if there was a proud Dalek at Portsmouth Pride and I'm here to let you know that yes, there was a proud Dalek at Portsmouth Pride.

A gold Dalek from Doctor Who is standing on a street. It has rainbow decorations. The wide, curving street beyond had trees offering shade to the cars parked by it.

Hey, so the process of moving places has tapped my bank accounts out, including savings, and I am really worried about the next steps. I have nobody to help me move. I also have a car that needs thousands in repairs.

I've never asked for this kind of help before bc of pride, but if you wanna help out, please check this link. Help a gay-ass dad and his boyfriend move for Pride maybe? Or just boost me?

I haven't been drawing much lately, but the kiddo challenged me to a cute drawing contest. Drawing cute things is not necessarily a strength of mine, but I gave it a shot.

#doodle #yaombaaa

Doodle of a goblin character whose head is about the same size as the rest of its body, giving it the appearance of a toddler. It seems to be barely standing on its stubby little legs and appears to be waving with its stubby little arm. But it's possible it's just trying to maintain its balance. It has some curly horns and a curly patch of hair with droopy ears. It has big eyes and a friendly open expression on its face, but you might still want to be wary of it.

Your art history post for today is: “The Bride,” 1873, manufactured by the W. T. Copeland & Sons pottery company after an original sculpture by Raffaelle Monti (1818–1881), porcelain, 15 inches (38 cm) tall, The Fitzwilliam Museum, The University of Cambridge. #arthistory

From the museum: “Raffaele Monti (1818-81) specialized in carving marbles with illusionistic veils. The Bride was derived from the head of a full-length marble of a kneeling Veiled Vestal of 1847.”

From the museum website: “Parian porcelain, slip cast bust of 'The Bride'. The circular socle is made separately and is held to the bust by a brass screw, nut, and washer. The bride faces front and looks downwards. She has a veil over her head which falls down over her face and breast at the front, and over her shoulders at the back. It is held in place by a wreath of orange-blossom flowers tied at centre back with a bow.” (Socle: a base for a small sculptures.)

Saw this read body suit and felt the need to draw this cutie wearing it. :3

#MastoArt #sketchbook #sketch #doodle #penDrawing #CatEars #CatGirl

Pen sketch of a young woman sitting on the floor, feet tucked beneath her. She is wearing a red bodysuit that shows her cleavage, black thigh high socks and some black cat ears. Her hair is tied back in a high ponytail. She has her hands placed on her knees, looking up towards the viewer, slightly embarrassed, but enjoying it. For contrast a black rectangle is drawn in the background and a red X on top of it.

The skyscrapers along Park Avenue in the 40's and lower 50's are all minor engineering marvels. They're built atop the rail yard for Grand Central Terminal (an early adopter of the modern real estate concept of "air rights"). Many of the newer buildings are much taller than was anticipated when the terminal was constructed more than a century ago. This heavily constrains their foundations and anchor points, leading to unusual load-bearing designs such as the steelwork shown in the photo.

This view is literally a construction site (to become the new JP Morgan building), but abstract at the same time. We see the new skyscraper, and the buildings in the background, essentially as a Mondrian-esq deconstructed tangle of lines and rectangles.

Alan Turing died by suicide on 7 June 1954. Turing was convicted of gross indecency in 1952 and given a choice between imprisonment and probation. His probation would be conditional on his agreement to undergo hormonal physical changes designed to reduce his libido. Turing's conviction led to the removal of his security clearance and barred him from continuing with his consultancy for GCHQ. He was denied entry into the United States after his conviction.

A thistle feeder hangs from a hook near a deck surrounded by pine trees. Thistle feeders are usually intended for fiches and other small birds, but in this photo, a wild turkey is perched on the deck rail, its head just high enough to eat out of the feeder.
