zionists don't realise it but saying 'this is the most jewish thing ever!' and 'people hate when jews do something clever' and and reporting it as 'innovative methods which carried out a precise military operation' and joking about ongoing attacks using everyday technology to injure thousands of civilians is not. good

thinks about how mcu moon knight was focused on actual egyptian representation directed by an egyptian man in opposition to the frankly orientalist comic origins and the fact they reinvented marlene to be a palestinian-egyptian woman who becomes a superhero herself and then thinks about how the new mcu captain america movie is literally zionist propoganda and grimaces in abject agony

Joe Louis for the US Army, 1942

Theme Week: Black Celebrities 👑

At the time, Joe Louis had been the reigning heavyweight boxing champ for 5 years and he would be for another 7 years after this. Before enlisting, he was already famous even among white Americans (thanks to a carefully crafted image as a Model Minority). He spent his time in the Army making appearances around the US to raise money, build morale and recruit.

Will your child be ready when the shit goes down?

[jemichiart]

I painted some of the most iconic large macaws known for their gorgeous, colorful plumages. I've always loved these birds and used to draw them a lot as a child. It was time to try that again! I think they look majestic in flight, so I wanted to paint them wild and free. It would be even better with a huge flock, but unfortunately all macaws are (some more than the others) endangered in the wild, so it felt sadly fitting to draw each one alone. But I'd imagine there are a few around, flying just out of sight or sitting on the tree branches nearby.

If you like this design, you can purchase any of these macaws as a print or many kinds of products on https://www.redbubble.com/people/JeMiChi/shop?asc=u

Always feels weird when someone draws a thicc exo, Clovis Bray couldn’t even be bothered to make measurement accurate bodies so that they wouldn’t go insane. You think he would let them spend more money on materials than they need to? No.
