"MAINTAIN DOUBLE GUARD AT PRISON," Wichita Beacon. December 15, 1931. Page 1. --- Federal Pen Quiet but Officers Take No Chances ---- LEAVENWORTH, KAN., Dec. 15. - (UP) - Leavenworth prison, scene of disorder during the past 48 hours, was quiet today, but the guard pa- trolling its massive gray walls remained at double strength.
Earl Thayer last of seven prisoners who escaped in a break late last week, was in solitary confinement today as were the other three captured alive.
Thayer was taken on the streets here. It was thought he had made good his escape and gotten out of the section, but he said he had been "hiding in the woods" not 12 miles. from the prison. He had ammunition, a 45 pistol and a 30-30 rifle with him.
Meanwhile, Warden T. B. White was reported improving in the hospital. He was suffering from shotgun wounds in his left arm. White was shot by the convicts after they kidnapped him.
A complete investigation as to the source of the six revolvers, shotguns and rifles used by the seven prison- ers was being conducted today by Santord Bates, director of federal prisons

The back of Discworld novels: wowee terry's whipped another wacky and wild adventure for us this time! there's so many silly shenanigans and witty wordplay in this book that you're sure to have a hilarious time!
Discword novels: a cynical alcoholic navigating and overcoming the pointlessness of his job, a transparent metaphor for racism and gun violence in the police system and in general, an intelligent young girl overcoming the ideas she's been taught by her culture and the media she consumes, just an entire novel made of commentary on war and gender, using talking animals as a way to explore what defines personhood and contrasting stories vs reality, an ex-convict coming to terms with the damage he's caused and fighting monopolies that are trying to do the same thing,
#and then the ex-convict's name is Moist von Lipwig#yes i made them sound more serious than they are but the book descriptions always do the opposite so it balances out#the books i'm talking about in order: guards guards; men at arms; the wee free men; monstrous regiment; the amazing maurice; going postal#discworld#gnu terry pratchett#sam vimes#moist von lipwig#tiffany aching#monstrous regiment

Perfect Home Security Ideas That'll Help Your Safety
When you least expect it, your worst nightmare can come true. A thief or other dangerous criminal could break into your home to steal valuables or, worse, hurt your loved ones. Prevent this from happening by educating yourself on home security, starting with the great tips included in this article.
When getting a home security system, you need to consider if there has been one previously installed. If this is the case, you can actually have a cheaper or easier installation by choosing to go with what was done before. Remember that this can be a wired or wireless installation.
If you use a social media site such as Facebook it can be tempting to tell everyone that you are planning to go away or are already away. Try your best not to post about being away until you are back, especially if your site is not private. You never know who could be watching and see it as an opportunity to break in.
Having a good sized dog can make for a great home security system and deterrent to criminals who are considering breaking into your house. Even if you do not have a dog, buying a couple "beware of the dog" signs can be enough to deter people from robbing your house.
Home security systems have additional features to just being noise alarms. They can be programmed to alert the homeowner if a person enters the home. This isn't just for burglars; parents with young children can also use it as a valuable tool to know when their child has come inside.
Walk outside of your home at night and see what is visible through your windows. If you have a clear view of your valuables, especially easily stolen electronics, then so do potential thieves. If you don't want to rearrange the interior of your home, simply make sure that blinds or drapes block the view.
There is no denying the critical nature of keeping your home protected from outside intruders. The key to doing this successfully, though, is arming yourself with solid information and guidance. Hopefully the preceding article has offered you precisely the type of advice you needed to get your home security plan off the ground.

The fact that Judaism is trending because of both the wave of bomb threats on synagogues and Bradley Cooper's Antisemitism Adventure (his huge fake prosthetic nose, and him basically stealing the story from a Jewish man) is so infuriating and so exhaustingly typical.
The fact that I see Judaism trending on Tumblr and immediately think "oh no. Something Bad is happening to us." We're never trending cause it's fucking good. I never get to be excited, it's just cold dread.
The fact that Antisemitism is getting worse everyday and the only ones who ever talk about it are other Jews. The fact that no one else fucking cares. The only ones who support us are other Jews. Even when gentiles talk about Nazis or white supremacists they don't want to help us. We're just their prop, the canary in the coal mine and the perfect victim.
The fact that everyone's uncomfortable with Jews still being here. Reminding them of things they'd rather forget.
The fact that it'd be easier for them if we were all dead. Then they could tell stories about our people, dressed in offensive caricatures, without us making a fuss.
#im so fucking pissed right now#jew tag#judaism#jumblr#when will we be able to catch a fucking break man#i keep thinking about dara horn man#she said it best#a hundred times#Sarah's bullshit#I'll probably delete this later i just AUGH#g-d im angry i just wanted to rant#me and every jewish person ever who went to hebrew school or shul or anything#we have armed security guards as some flimsy protection so we dont get hate crimed#so no one comes in and shoots our kids#by the way. its not normal. its been all ive ever known though#g-d forbid one of those bomb threats is real will gentiles slap on a fake nose and make a movie about it twenty years later

thinking about arthur who has crazy quick reflexes and is a relatively light sleeper who woke up to the sound of someone in his room and saw merlin crouched down messing with his keys before softly asking “whatre you doing?…before breakfast?”
#like in that scene in s2 when merlin was calling out arthurs name from under his bed#and he jumped up (thinking merlin was long gone) grabbed his sword and postured for a fight#or that one in idk which season when merlin was sneaking in his room and he woke up and grabbed his sword when merlin bumped a chair#and then merlin brought the canopy/curtains around his bed down on him#vs waking up to see melin splayed over him and staring for a beat#before flinching back#(he was definitely having some thoughts and/or dreams but thats neither here nor there)#idk thinking about arthur who trusts merlin implicitly and allows himself to lower his guard around him#his guard which he keeps up even in his sleep#GOD imagining them in an established relationship and merlin for once has /so/ much trouble waking arthur up#like before it was sorta bad but arthur was always in that half awake state#but now that theyre together….arthur wont even groan when merlin starts poking his ribs#arthur finally feeling so safe and protected that he allows his guard to drop in his sleep#and its the first time hes ever felt truly refreshed in the morning#so now merlin has infinitely more trouble waking him up but when hes up hes UP and ready to go#bbc merlin#merlin emrys#arthur pendragon#merthur#arthur bby they could never make me hate you#hes just a girl desperately craving love and protection#merlin isnt even offering it#hes shoving it into arthurs arms with insults flying off the tongue#theyre so disgusting#(affectionate)#<3#headcanon#head canon#hc

Well, well, it’s the glorious 25th of May again, so here you are, there’s some Ank-Morporkian posters here. Hope you like them.
(Spent around 40 hours on these two, so I’ll be really glad if you let me know what’s you think!)
P.S. Some details I intended to show, but have no idea if I managed to, so that’s a description.
— Havelock looks at Keel's face, not at the slogan, because for him, the person is more important for him than the function. Keel, however, looks into the distance.
— Vimes looks at the slogan, as if uninterested in who performs the function, only in what the function is. Vetinari, however, looks at him from the poster. The Patrician sees everything and everyone, remember?
— The poster with Keel is drawn dynamically, like the revolution that turned everything upside down in one day. The young Havelock’s cloak is also caught in the wind. But the poster with Vetinari is completely static, with straight lines and a strict front. A stable, let's say "sober" composition, like everything about the Patrician.
— The places where the lilac is worn match between the observer and the person on the poster.
— Keel-Sam here is at his most mature form, with a lot of gray hair, around 46-47 years old. Although Vetinari here is quite young, at most 40. It's actually implied that this timeline is before the events of the first book, so Vimes is still just the captain of the miserable Night Watch. I know that usually in my fanarts, he has long hair during the first two books, but here I've given him a more "mature" hairstyle for the sake of character recognition. Lol.

Head canon:
Hero's have adapted their suits to help them. They have extra back stabilization cus of a back injury, built in braces for their knees, elbow or wrists etc. This means they can't just take off their suits and trade them cus they're custom made for each hero.
#based on Bruce wearing the Nightwing suit. Bruce you cant do that think of your back. your batsuit has braces in it get that off#comics#dc comics#batman#nightwing#red robin#green arrow#but also green arrow like dudes gotta have some shoulder support or built in arm guards etc#daredevil#you gotta have your hands wrapped my dude. what are you gonna day when matt Murdock has split knucklesm#dick grayson#he definitely has knee braces#robin#tim drake#bruce wayne#jason todd#marvel comics#they corner the market on icy hot

Just sharing some process and colour experiments.
#zuko#my art can be so ugly while it's in WIP stage#sigh but#I REALLY like the negative space shapes here#forgot to circle the one under the left arm as well#I was trying to reference some parts of an animation frame but#I don't like how the right arm is overlapping the torso so I might change it#also I HAD NO IDEA that only his top armour piece is more reddish than the rest of the armour#disregarding the rims of the armour#also what I thought were guards for the top parts of the hands are actually the extensions of sleeves#man whaaaat#also I haven't figured out yet how the lower part of the armour attaches and does the tunic go over it or is it connected to it#my art

Read "Suki, Alone". Liked it in general. But can they please, please hire someone who knows both the show's actual events and how to follow through on a character arc? Because guys. Guys. That comic is not implying about Suki what they meant it to be implying, and all because of literally one line.
So like. From a writer's standpoint:
What they meant to do: show Suki as a community-oriented person who cares for her people, and believes in everyone succeeding together.
As opposed to (spoilers): the thief girl they set her up in contrast with, who's pretty upfront and consistent on primarily looking out for herself. She betrays Suki for one (1) corn chip to improve her own life at the prison, no surprise.
But the problem is: they give Suki an inspirational line to the effect of "we're all working together and we'll all break out together"
You know
The thing she does not do in the show
So if both the show and this comic are canon, then instead of setting up a compare/contrast with the thief girl, they've just set up a comparison. One were Suki is arguably worse, because she's been leading a significant number of prisoners on with her "we'll all fight and win our freedom together!" business, only to straight up cut them out of the escape loop and abandon them, whereas the thief is only leading Suki on in the sense that Suki keeps telling her what it's morally correct to think and confuses snide replies with agreement
My dudes. My fellow writers. You people actually being paid for this. There were so many ways to fix those awful implications against our girl's character, the simplest of which would be to not include that line. Or they could have, you know, made it canon compliant with what actually happens in the show, so that this comic doesn't set Suki up as a betrayer instead of a community builder. Like... just send all her good prison buddies off to other prisons in the wake of the warden finding out they're colluding. Have it timed to be right before the next new prisoners arrive, thus setting it immediately before the Boiling Rock episodes, so Suki didn't have anyone left in the prison she'd want to take with her on a breakout. For bonus points, include a page or two of her and her Kyoshi warriors opening up the cell of one of her prison friends post-war, thus implying she's tracking down and actually fulfilling her promises. Maybe even show her doing the same with thief girl, who was established as being imprisoned on false charges anyway, and also showing that Suki is A) the bigger person, and B) willing to acknowledge her own role in mistakes (because I cannot emphasize enough how much thief girl was not hiding her own priorities, and it was Suki who approached HER with all this, not the girl ever doing anything special to weasel her way in) (this would also open up an opportunity for paralleling Suki's earlier in-comic mistake of not listening to one of her friend's very valid thoughts and feeling, which lead to the girl leaving their island alone pre-canon; a "seeing people as they are, not what you want them to be" moment)
Anyway yeah enjoyable enough for a quick read but another one for the "this can't be canon or the characters are So Much Worse than they were in the actual show" pile
At least Aang didn't promise to murder anyone in this one
#I also have minor critiques like#Why are all the guards drawn as short and noodly-armed as Sokka pretending to be a guard#Why are the guards the only ones allowed to have funny lines#Did anyone consider using a lack of dialogue in some panels to establish mood and let the visuals speak for themselves (no they did not)#Why is Azula villain monologuing for so long at the start#She does like her villain lines but in the show they're short#And generally aimed at fresh opponents#Not last week's old news#I kept wondering why Azula was even there instead of generic lackeys especially since she had to have been dealing with the conquest of#Ba Sing Se around then. big This Could Have Been An Email vibes#Also as a gardener#HOW FAST WERE THOSE PRISON PLANTS GOING TO SEED AND WHERE CAN I GET SOME#Apparently they needed minimal (almost no?) light and tiny cracks of space and were nutritious and tasted good raw and grew so fast they#Could substantially affect the diets of multiple prisoners within a short time span?#I WANT THEM IN MY INDOOR SETUP ASAP#Screw lettuce I want Suki's Magic Beans#avatar the last airbender#atla#Suki#There continue to be no comics in Ba Sing Se but this was a better attempt than some#Suki Alone
