phantomqueen:



my storytelling final! or, that week i almost went blind cross-hatching!


it’s a couple weeks old at this point, but i’m still proud of it (all that cross-hatching…) even though looking back at it now i can see a ton of flaws or things i just could’ve done better. maybe i’ll redo it one day.


the page colors are kind of wonky because they’re photographs; i didn’t have a scanner big enough for the pages.


hell yeah monster/human friendships



Very well done, I love it!

"It is very simple. If the CIA is insubordinate to the president, whom the country elected, then it..."

“It is very simple. If the CIA is insubordinate to the president, whom the country elected, then it is insubordinate to all of us. If the NYPD runs a slow-motion coup against the freely elected mayor of New York, then it is running a slow-motion coup against all the people of New York. There is no exemption from this fundamental truth about the way this country and its system is supposed to work. The military — and its civilian analogues in Langley and in the precinct houses — always is subordinate to the civil power which, no matter how much it may chafe them, means that they always are subordinate to politicians. If we render our torturers superior to the political institutions of the government, and if we render the police superior to the civil power of elected officials, then we essentially have empowered independent standing armies to conduct our wars and enforce our laws, and self-government descends into bloody farce.”

"Research described in a new article published in the Journal of Public Transportation, “A New..."

“Research described in a new article published in the Journal of Public Transportation, “A New Transit Safety Narrative,” indicates that increased transit travel and more transit-oriented development can provide significant traffic safety and crime reduction benefits. These benefits are potentially large, but generally overlooked by safety experts and transit advocates. Transit travel has less than a tenth the crash casualty rate as automobile travel, and transit-oriented development residents experience less than a fifth of the traffic casualty rate, per capita, as automobile-oriented communities. In addition, per capita crime rates tend to be lower in more compact, mixed, transit-oriented neighborhoods, and all else being equal, tend to be lower in more transit-oriented cities than in automobile-dependent cities. This research supports Jane Jacob’s hypothesis that more compact, mixed development tends to reduce crime by increasing passive surveillance (“eyes on the street”) by responsible (non-criminal) people who live, work, and walk in an area.”

I got this for a dollar at Goodwill today. I have never read the Paddington books. When I think of a book about a stuffed bear, I think about Corduroy.
