Mother & daughter drawing practice ꒰ᐢ. .ᐢ꒱

keep in mind that i'm using the words "(in)valid" and "(un)sound" here in their formal logic senses: a valid argument is one where the conclusion follows from the premises. a sound argument both is valid AND has evidence to support the truth of its premises. even if an argument is logically valid, it's not sound if you can't support the truth of the premises; and even if you have evidence for the premises, an invalid argument won't be sound either.

the reason it's so important to stay away from conspiratorial language is twofold:

one, it's literally just not even useful because it's fundamentally bad logic,

and two, if you don't fill in a specific value for the actor, someone else is very likely to fill one in for you, and that's one of the easiest ways to radicalize someone. if you're already primed to look for a target for your blame, all that a malicious actor has to do is aim you at their favorite target.

and to be crystal clear: being radicalized is BAD. antisemitism—because let's be honest, it always ends up turning into antisemitism sooner or later—is BAD. we do not want these things. they are the tools of very dangerous people whom we do not want to be like or be around. therefore we must avoid giving those tools and the people who use them a foothold in our discourse. conspiratorial language can very easily become such a foothold; therefore, we ought to steer clear of it.

if your leftism doesn’t include fighting antisemitism then I’m really not interested in your leftism

My entry for day 2: Date of Twiyor Month @twiyorbase

Do you remember that in one of the 862 dates, they were on a boat? And poor Yor couldn't even sit? Well, I wanted to remake that. I'm in awe at how Loid was so committed to make her feel happy again, he thought of the most romantic scenarios... WE NEED ANOTHER DATE SOON!

Here, it's more of a post-reveal or after they acknowledge their feelings for the other... Yor whispering sweet nothings, meanwhile Loid is just smitten, in awe at how could he be so lucky to be loved by that woman in front of him. I intended to make it fully rendered, but the interesting touch the finish gave it, made me like it even more. I try to give my art heart and soul, no matter how good or bad the drawing, coloring or lines are.

I just know these two compliment each other so well...

posting after a while!

im not sure who made the og meme..!!

[starlight-bread-blog]

I'm seeing a lot of posts where the overall point is good, but it's still full of dubious information. People act like questioning the sources is a betrayal of the virtue of the point, but, and I cannot stress this enough:

You should still question sources you agree with.
