Artist Paints Architectural Portraits Onto Concrete Fragments of Same Demolished Estate "IndyWatch Feed Arts"

Artist Paints Architectural Portraits Onto Concrete Fragments of Same Demolished Estate

Paintings on Concrete by Harriet Mena Hill

Sometimes the choice of materials is just as meaningful as the art itself. Artist Harriet Mena Hill has been working on an ongoing series of unorthodox paintings called The Aylesbury Fragments, rendering scenes of architecture directly onto pieces of concrete. Each of these remnants is salvaged material from the Aylesbury Estate, a large housing complex in South East London, which is being demolished as part of a regeneration program.

Hill finds a way to record snippets of the dismantled buildings on numerous shards of concrete, which range from palm-sized to nearly the length of a human torso. The inspiration for what she paints derives from the stories of residents who used to live in these torn-down apartments. I started making work about the Aylesbury Estate in response to my experience of working with the residents on art projects back in 2018, Hill tells My Modern Met. The Aylesbury Fragments document what remains of the occupied parts of the estate as it undergoes regeneration. The concrete pieces that Hill uses come from a block of flats called Chiltern which was demolished in 2020.

The Aylesbury Estate was designed by architect Hans Peter Fenton and constructed between 1963 and 1977. It consisted of 2,700 dwellings that housed about 10,000 residents at one time. During the 1980s, however, the site went through a period of disrepair, eventually prompting the beginning of a regeneration program in 2005. I wanted to present the human and community side of the estate which has historically experienced an extremely negative portrayal in the press, Hill explains. The works offer an opportunity to do so.

The United States V. China: The Mystery behind the Expanding War "IndyWatch Feed Spiritual"

A War doesnt have to be publicly declared or mutually agreed upon by both of the participants. The United States should be keenly aware of this, considering our corporeal and civic annihilation of Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya to name a few. Would any of these countries agree to be bitch-slapped back into a feudal age if they couldve avoided it?

The authoritarian regime in China has engaged in a subversive war on the American citizenry, whether the Biden administration will admit to this or not. Is Biden reluctant to address Chinas complicity in the fatal poisoning of U.S. civilians because hes colluded with the corrupt nation so often?

Chinas unrelenting assault on young Americans with copious amounts of fentanyl has eradicated tens of thousands in recent years. Biden refuses to return volley for this attack and has aided in its efficiency by recklessly opening our borders. In comparison, the Bush regime slaughtered millions in recompense for the murder of just three-thousand on 9/11, most of which were unwitting, Middle Eastern dirt-farmers.

Apart from poisoning thousands of remiss young adults and irrevocably destabilizing their families, the Chinese have been purchasing land around key American military installations.

As disturbing as a communist land grab surrounding American military bases might appear, it pales in comparison to other occurrences. Recently, Chinese surveillance operations have been acknowledged to exist in several of our citys.

These surveillance hubs are littered throughout the densely populated areas of communist China and they infect every nook and cranny of its society. It seems unfathomable, however, to imagine these subversive intelligence agencies operating in the United States. If American citizens are privy to this alarming development, then its safe to say that our officials mustve known for years.

The Chi-com infiltration of our cities and around our military bases is only astounding when taken out of context. The reality is that we are voluntarily tied at the hip with Chinas oppressive regime.

Just take a stroll to the nearest bargain superstore and youll discover 99% of its products are made in China. Is there any other time in history when the United States was so interdependent with such a formidable enemy?

What about uber-wealthy Americans like Lebron James?

Prescott Bush, the patriarch of the murderous Bush clan, was documented to be a Nazi sympathizer and was fiscally invested with them well after we declared war on Germany. This begs t......

10 myths told by COVID experts and now debunked "IndyWatch Feed Spiritual"

More to share with your friends, from the New York Post no less: In the past few weeks, a series of analyses published by highly respected researchers have exposed a truth about public health officials during COVID: Much of the time, they were wrong. To be clear, public health officials were not wrong for making recommendations based on what was known at the time. Thats understandable. You go with the data you have. No, they were wrong because they refused to change their directives in the face of new evidence. When a study did not support their policies, they dismissed it and censored opposing opinions. At the same time, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention weaponized research itself by putting out its own flawed studies in its own non-peer-reviewed medical journal, MMWR. In the final analysis, public health officials actively propagated misinformation that ruined lives and forever damaged public trust in the medical profession. Here are 10 ways they misled Americans:

Misinformation #1: Natural immunity offers little protection compared to vaccinated immunity

A Lancet study looked at 65 major studies in 19 countries on natural immunity. The researchers concluded that natural immunity was at least as effective as the primary COVID vaccine series.

How Bitcoin Mining Is Adapting To The Energy Transition "IndyWatch Feed Crypto"

Researching more than 100 bitcoin mining companies, its clear that this industry is poised to advance energy consumption more than any other.

This is an opinion editorial by Ritabrata Santra, an engineer focused on energy tech.

I bought my first bitcoin in 2016. I was a college sophomore and it was my second year living in the U.S. As I was acclimating myself to the new way of life I found myself living, I came across an article on Bitcoin.

I had saved up some money from my on-campus jobs. As someone who saw the devaluation of my parents hard-earned money, the value proposition of Bitcoin was immediately clear to me and I made the second-biggest mistake of my life: I bought a bitcoin off of Coinbase (for $1,500) instead of mining and cold storing (HODLing) it! If you are wondering what my biggest mistake is: Two months later, I got an internship in Germany, so I sold the bitcoin to buy myself a ticket to Berlin, and six months later, one bitcoin was worth around $16,000!

The Energy Trilemma And Bitcoin

One of the many things that stood out in my new way of life in the U.S. is the reliable access to electricity. Growing up in India, I witnessed how a lack of energy impacted health, knowledge and opportunity.

Today, developed economies consume as much energy as 12 times the average in some of the developing economies. There are over 900 million people who do not have access to electricity but we flare enough gas every year to power entire sub-saharan Africa. In other words, we burn enough gas (emitting carbon dioxide, or CO2) to provide energy for millions of people without creating any economic value, as we do not have the necessary technology to profitably transport the energy where it is most needed.

I believe that the energy trilemma, the need to balance energy reliability, affordability and sustainability, is one of the great challenges of our lifetime we need to eradicate energy poverty and meet the additional demand of energy from emerging economies, while actively decarbonizing to reach carbon neutrality.

Bitcoin mining serves as a medium for capturing the wasted economic potential of excess energy resources, accelerates otherwise expensive but innovative renewable development, and therefore sits at the center of solving the energy trilemma.

An autistic Year 10 (or equivalent to Grade 9 in the US) student from Wakefield, England, was dismissed from his school and bombarded with death threats after an event where a Quran was allegedly disrespected.

The incident started with a wager after the unnamed 14-year-old student played Call of Duty with his friends. The winner could tell the loser what to buy or do. In this case, the autistic student lost the wage and was told to buy a copy of the Quran. He complied and purchased the holy book from Amazon.

The autistic student then brought the Quran inside the premises of Kettlethorpe High School and gave it to another student, who recited a passage from the book to other students on a tennis court. It was also revealed that an unrelated boy knocked the Quran off the students hands, causing it to fall on the floor.

Afterward, the autistic student picked up the Quran and placed it in his bag. Soon after, rumors quickly spread that the Quran was thrown around, spat at, and even burned. They were refuted by Akef Akbar, an independent Muslim councilor for East Wakefield, who posted photos of the Quran on Instagram with a caption narrating the incident.

Four students were suspended for a week since they were believed to have crossed the line. The local community set up a meeting to discuss the events that occurred and to put the citys Muslim community at ease. The assembly happened at Jamia Masjid Swafia, a mosque in Wakefield.

People who participated in the meeting include Imam Hafiz Muhammad Mateen Anwar, Inspector Glen Costello, Chief Inspector Andy Thornton, Kettlethrope High School headteacher Tudor Griff...

Iranian Feminist Artist Censored by American University, Sparking Backlash "IndyWatch Feed Spiritual"

An article from the British online magazine Spiked revealed that a private liberal arts college in Minnesota temporarily closed and censored an art exhibition of a feminist artist after claiming some Muslim students were offended by it.

The exhibition opened at Macalester College in St.Paul last January 27. It featured the works of Taravat Talepasand, a 44-year-old Iranian-American female artist originally hailing from Oregon. Her works often challenged political and religious orthodoxy, criticizing Islamic conservatism and the oppression of women under Islamist regimes.

Some artworks the college claimed to have shocked and offended students' sensibilities include a risqu drawing of a woman in hijab lifting her clothes and showing her underwear and another lifting her niqab to reveal her underwear while raising the middle finger.

The exhibit also featured porcelain sculptures of women in niqabs revealing their breasts. Lastly, Talepasand also featured a neon sign saying Woman, Life, Freedom in English and Persian. This slogan has become a symbol of protest against the Islamic Republic after protests broke out last year.

Not pleased with her artworks, some Macalesters student body members submitted a petition demanding to shut down the exhibition, claiming that Talepasands works caused "deep pain" and even perpetuated harm against Muslims.

Why a Cube-Shaped City in Saudi Arabia is Upsetting Muslims "IndyWatch Feed Spiritual"

A cube-shaped megastructure for Riyadh in Saudi Arabia sparks controversy in social media for its similarity to the 'Kaaba.'

On February 16th, Saudi Arabia lifted the curtain on the latest architectural design of a cubic-shaped megastructure, which received criticism for strikingly resembling Islam's most sacred site, the Kaaba.

According to the Saudi kingdom's Public Investment Fund (PIF), the construction of "The Mukaab" - derived from the Arabic word for the cube- will occur in Saudi Arabia's capital Riyadh and is expected to be completed by the end of this decade.

The height, width, and length of this massive city-within-a-city will be 400 meters which is large enough to contain at least 20 Empire State Buildings. Providing over 100,000 residential units, 9,000 hotel rooms, and 1.4 million square meters of office space, it will also be the home to many entertainment and culture venues.

Spearheaded by Crown Prince Muhammad bin Salman, this project is one of the plans to create the biggest and most advanced downtown in the world in Riyadh.

Inspired by the styles used in the Najd region in Saudi Arabia for the design and architecture, the building features overlapping triangular forms. However, some social media users have pointed out that the design is far too similar to the Kabba.

The Kabba is a cube structure at the center of Islam's most important mosque, Masjid al-Haram, in Mecca. The Muslims consider it the House of God and the Qibla (direction of prayer) when performing Namaz.

One Twitter user named Kariman said, "This is a strange choice, or is it just me? The New Mukaab, like the Kaaba but with shopping venues...?"

Indian Woman Escapes Human Sacrifice Plot "IndyWatch Feed Spiritual"

A writ petition was filed in the Madras High Court by a 23-year-old woman who alleged that she fled her home in Madhya Pradesh because her stepmother was planning to kill her as a part of a human sacrifice ritual. She also claimed that her younger brother was killed in a past ritual.

Alongside Advocate S. Doraisamy and V. Elangovan, the petitioner appeared in court and said her friends helped her escape to Tamil Nadu for her safety.

In the affidavit she filed, the petitioner said that Uttar Pradesh was her birthplace; however, she later moved to Madhya Pradesh with her family. She also said that her father worked in the Agricultural Department but retired in 2017.

She was a student of Government Maharani Laskshmibai Girls' College in Bhopal and said that she held a Master's degree in nutrition and dietetics. Currently, she is pursuing a diploma in Yoga. She claimed that her parents forced her to become a member of the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP), a right-wing all-India student organization. However, she also said that she left the organization after a while.

The petitioner allegedly accused her stepmother and other relatives of being followers of black magic after coincidentally learning about their intention to kill her to perform a human sacrifice ritual. She also heard about her younger brother's demise, who underwent the same ritual when he was only ten.

She Told Her New Neighbors They Got What They Paid for and Theyd Be Shunned by the Neighborhood. Is She Wrong? "IndyWatch Feed Arts"

Gentrification brings a lot of mixed emotions to the surface.

And that includes people on both sides of the issue.

So was this person an a**hole for what they said to their new neighbors that clearly have a lot of money?

Get all the details below.

AITA for telling the new neighbors that they got what they paid for, including being shunned by the neighborhood?

Where I live, real estate developers have started snatching up family homes, bulldozing them and building enormous 2 million dollar houses on the plots of land. The houses also stick out horribly in terms of aesthetics think single level brick homes with a 3-level gigantic white and black box in the middle.

My homes been in my family for several generations. We have always been known for having a large, beautiful garden. We invited over kids to help with gardening, we gave away so many veggies, wed hold parties, etc. Its been a neighborhood treasure for years.

Until developers snatched up the lot next door, bulldozed and erected an enormous house that blocked out the light to most of the garden. Many of us tried to fight it with the city but everything was denied. It was heartbreaking. Our neighborhood has been changed forever. This was a link to my family and I almost have had to go through a grieving process for it.

The new owners moved in and were not welcomed warmly by people in the neighborhood. I avoided them for as long as I could, other than politely waving or nodding. It was a young couple in their early 20s.

We finally came face to face and the woman asked if we could chat. She said that they felt like maybe theyd done something wrong when they moved in, or if they arent pulling in their trash bins or something, being too loud, etc, because people havent bee...

A shimmering reminder that the magic is of our own conjuring.


How to Grow Re-enchanted with the World: A Salve for the Sense of Existential Meaninglessness and Burnout

There are seasons of being when a cloak of meaninglessness seems to slip over you, over everything, muffling the song of life. It is not depression exactly, though the two conditions make eager bedfellows. Rather, it is a great hollowing that empties you of that vital force necessary for moving through the world wonder-smitten by reality, that glint of gladness at the mundane miracle of existence. A disenchantment we may call by many names burnout, apathy, alienation but one that visits upon every life in one form or another, at one time or another, pulsating with the unmet longing for something elemental and ancient, with the yearning to see the world as beautiful again and feel its magic, to find sanctuary in it, to contact that submerged sunrise of wonder.

And if thats true, these 26 people are going to stay married for a long, long time.

26. Im on the wifes side here.

Sorry not sorry.

25. Hes giving you permission.

Youve gotta jump on that.

24. Finally.

Hes been trying to get fired for a long time.

Trust, Betrayal, and the Nexus of Mathematics and Morality: The Prisoners Dilemma Animated "IndyWatch Feed Arts"

Illuminating the pitfalls of the mind in felt and gingerbread.


Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present, Albert Camus wrote as he considered what it really means to be in solidarity with justice an elegantly phrased reminder that the decisions we make today are the only fulcrum by which we move the outcomes of tomorrow. And yet the greatest pitfall of human consciousness might be our habitual forgetting of this fundamental fact.

In 1950, two mathematicians working on game theory devised a cruelly brilliant thought experiment demonstrating just how poorly we manage to calibrate future outcomes for our own best interests, exposing a secret underground of consciousness where mathematics and morality converge. Known as The Prisoners Dilemma, it illuminates the complex dynamics that govern loyalty, betrayal, collaboration, and trust dynamics that play out in myriad subtle ways across our everyday lives.

The classic thought experiment comes alive with unexpected delight in this animated short film from TED-Ed by economist Lucas Husted and animators Ivana Bonjak and Thomas Johnson Volda:

Complement with philosopher Martha Nussbaum on the emotional machinery of trust and the only fruitful response to betrayal, then revisit other animated adaptations of classic thought experiments: The Ship of Theseus (exploring what makes you you), Platos Cave (exploring the central mystery of consciousness), Boltzmanns Brain Paradox (exploring whether reality is a hallucination), The Infinite Hotel Paradox (exploring the mind-bending nature of infinity), and Marys Room (exploring the limits of knowledge).

Reboot of The Proud Family Cartoon Dedicates an Episode to Autism Awareness "IndyWatch Feed Arts"

Reboot of The Proud Family Cartoon Dedicates an Episode to Autism Awareness

Proud Family reacts to BeBe's autism diagnosis

Photo: Screenshot from Twitter

The early 2000s animated series The Proud Family celebrated Blackness and represented Black families on screen. Airing on the Disney Channel, it also tackled serious subjects such as bullying, religion, and homelessness. Its new reboot The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder is no different. One episode, in particular, has recently gained traction online for its representation of the autism spectrum and its candid conversation on autism diagnoses.

In the episode, the family becomes concerned with young BeBes lack of fear. They are recommended to see child psychologist Dr. Lord, who says that BeBe is showing signs of being on the autism spectrum. A short clip from the episode was shared on Twitter, where parents Oscar and Trudy first hear and respond to the diagnosis. Oscar has trouble understanding the diagnosis and accuses Dr. Lord of calling BeBe stupid. Oscar initially wants to leave, calling the psychologist a quack.

Eventually, Oscar sits to listen to Dr. Lord, who explains that her tests show BeBe is incredibly intelligent, curious, and fearless. She states, all an autism diagnosis means is Bebe will need a little extra effort and attention. Dr. Lord also adds needing support doesnt mean lack of ability, and emphasizes the importance of the family believing in BeBe, as well as teaching and helping him.

The clip ends with Trudy and Oscar saying goodbye to BeBe as they...

Robert Temple: A New Science of Heaven "IndyWatch Feed Uncanny"

'I knew it was a book I needed to read' - VIVIENNE WESTWOOD

'His book explains complex scientific theory in a graspable way' - LILY ASHLEY

'This book is an important contribution, and I hope it will open many minds. What is particularly important in it are the discussions of David Bohm, of bioplasma, biophotons, and bioelectronics.' - PROFESSOR ZBIGNIEW WOLKOWSKI, Sorbonne University, Paris

"Answers so many questions, scientific and esoteric, about the true nature of our reality... A seminal work... Will revolutionise how we frame reality and the thinking of everyone on this planet. Kudos to Professor Temple for striking the first match to light the fire." - NEW DAWN

The story of the science of plasma and its revolutionary implications for the way we understand the universe and our place in it.

Histories of science in the 20th century have focused on relativity and quantum mechanics. But, quietly in the background, there has been a third area of exploration which has equally important implications for our understanding of the universe. It is unknown to the general public despite the fact that many Nobel prize winners, senior academics and major research centres around the world have been devoted to it - it is the study of plasma

Plasma is the fourth state of matter and the other three - gas, liquid and solids - emerge out of plasma. This book will reveal how over 99% of the universe is made of plasma and how there are two gigantic clouds of plasma, called the Kordylewski Clouds, hovering between the Earth and the Moon, only recently discovered by astronomers in Hungary. Other revelations not previously known outside narrow academic disciplines include the evidence that in certain circumstances plasma exhibits features that suggest they may be in some sense alive: clouds of plasma have evolved double helixes, banks of cells and crystals, filaments and junctions which could control the flow of electric currents, thus generating an intelligence similar to machine intelligence. We may, in fact, have been looking for signs of extra-terrestrial life in the wrong place.

Bestselling author Robert Temple has been following the study of plasma for decades and was personally acquainted with several of the senior scientists - including Nobel laureates - at its forefront, including Paul Dirac, David Bohm, Peter Mitchell and Chandra Wickramasinghe (who has co-written an academic paper with Temple).

PROFESSOR ROBERT TEMPLE is the author of a dozen challenging and provocative books, commencing with the international best-seller, The Sirius Mystery. His books have been translated into a total of 44 foreign languages. He is Visiting Professor of the History and Philosophy of Science at Tsinghua University in Beijing, and previously held a similar position at an American university.

For many years he was a science writer for the Sunday Times, the Guardian, and a sc...

Michael Jordans $10 Million Donation to Make-A-Wish Is the Largest in the Organizations History

Michael Jordan is widely regarded as one of the best basketball players of all time. His legacy, however, goes beyond his NBA championships and records. The sports icon has been a supporter of the Make-A-Wish  Foundation since 1989a couple of years before his first NBA championshipwhen he first fulfilled the dream of a kid with a critical illness. Now, to celebrate his 60th birthday, Jordan donated $10 million to Make-A-Wish America. The sum makes it the largest individual contribution in the nonprofit organizations 43-year history.

For the past 34 years, its been an honor to partner with Make-A-Wish and help bring a smile and happiness to so many kids, said Jordan in a press release. Witnessing their strength and resilience during such a tough time in their lives has truly been an inspiration. I cant think of a better birthday gift than seeing others join me in supporting Make-A-Wish so that every child can experience the magic of having their wish come true.

The six-time NBA champion was named Make-A-Wish Chief Wish Ambassador in 2008 for the impact he has had on ailing children and his families. To this day he remains one of the most requested celebrity wish granters and helps kids from around the world. Jordans donation will create an endowment to provide the funds needs to make future wishes possible for kids with critical illnesses, said the organization. Now, his wish is for his donation to inspire others to help Make-A-Wish to make more dreams more true and to reduce the number of children who are waiting for their wishes to come true.

Michael using his birthday as a chance to make history for Make-A-Wish speaks to the quality of his character and his loyal dedication to making life better for c...

Hark, A Vagrant: Away From Desk "IndyWatch Feed Comics"



Thank you for reading. I can't say it enough.


Hark! A Vagrant, such as it is, is an archive website now. I didn't think it would be when I stepped away to work on other projects, but (not to kill the light mood around here) 2016-2018 were very difficult years in a personal sense, and emerging on the other side, I feel like this is a project that has run its course. I am so very grateful for all that this comic and my readers have given me, they have given me a career, joy, and more than I ever dreamed.

I'm still working on a graphic novel, and picture books for children. I miss making humour comics, but coming back to them, I will have to figure out what that will look like. These comics go back to my early 20s, and I am a different person. In a sense that's exciting. I'll figure it out, and I hope I'll see you there. Hark! is only one project, I personally am not going anywhere. And maybe next time I'll choose a title that I won't have to repeat ten times to people, a bright prospect.

I'd like to dedicate this archive to my sister Becky Beaton, who we lost in 2018, and who always believed in me. I love you, always.

Hark, A Vagrant: Wuthering Heights pt 6 "IndyWatch Feed Comics"



As it happens, boring Nelly and self absorbed Lockwood are really the last two people you would want as narrators. Sucks to be you, reader! I guess Heathcliff gives his perspective once, but mostly it's these two clowns and Isabella's letter from inside the madhouse.




As promised, here are the kid and baby items new to the store, for little Scholastic fans! Along with the plushes, I hope you find something for my littlest readers. Here is the link!

Hark, A Vagrant: Wuthering Heights pt 5 "IndyWatch Feed Comics"



The part of the book leading to Cathy's death is the most interesting, isn't it? I have read chapters over and over.

Here's a collection of essays, an old one but a good one, if you want to start somewhere in thinking about it: 20th Century Interpretations of Wuthering Heights. In all libraries, everywhere. It has in it, though you can just google it up too, Charlotte's 1850 preface to the book in defence of it but courting the morals of the time and explaining why it is so ...different. "Wuthering Heights: Sorry, Sorry, Just Give It A Chance OK?" Then go read all the essays deconstructing that. Then go down the deconstructing rabbit hole until you have no idea what you think anymore anyway. Then watch Netflix or something because your brain broke. Well that's how I do it.


Some people have sent me pictures of pretty great Princess Pinecone and Pony costumes for Halloween. Pumpkins too! I'm so delighted to get those. I treasure 'em, thank you!




We have new plushes (see I made a new button with my computer skills), and new kids shirts coming in to Topatoco soon as well! I haven't really mentioned this before, but stores in the real world can also pick up my things to put on the shelves, through our wholesale department. And I'd love to see more of that, I get asked about it a lot! Well it's no problem, just go HERE and thanks as always for stopping by!

More Wuthering to come!

Hark, A Vagrant: Wuthering Heights pt 4 "IndyWatch Feed Comics"



Here we are, back at Wuthering Heights after an extended leave. Heathcliff has come home and everyone is reasonable and I don't really see trouble brewing at all.

Thank you all who picked up King Baby!! I went on a book tour to schools and stores, and I loved all the little ones so much. I drew some comics about it: one
two
three
four

Hark, A Vagrant: King Baby "IndyWatch Feed Comics"



Ahoy there! Allow me to write a bit here! But first, the image above speaks the truth. KING BABY is coming soon from Scholastic books, and Walker books in the UK! It is my second picture book, and its a lot of fun. I hope you'll pick it up!

Well, if you've been around here long enough, you know that this website just updates at random and at this point, not often like many comics you probably read online. I've been doing Hark! A Vagrant for almost nine years, which is crazy to me. And the longer I've done it, the longer it takes to make a comic. I know they look off the cuff, people reviewing my books make a point of saying so! But it's a lot of work for this gal, a full time job when it's going at a rate that you'd probably like to see. Lots of days reading and writing and trying to come up with things, lots of ideas you've spent days on thrown in the garbage can. And when you're done, another blank page.

Hark! is always in the back of my head when I'm working on anything else, and I find myself wracked with guilt for not keeping the updates coming, I have one foot here and one foot there. This push and pull, I have to accept, makes anything I'm working on suffer. And I've been trying to figure out a solution to this! Something better than slow work all around. Because if I'm honest, I'm scared that if I leave this site alone too long, I'll lose something very precious to me.

You.

I've worked a long time to bring you here, and you've been good to come here and read my comics and support my work. I feel that we have built a relationship, my readers and I, it's very important to me, and I never want to put it in peril. So what to do?

Right now I'm working on a tv show pitch, kids book ideas, and my own graphic novel. I don't know what will come together in the end for the first two, and I've been down the tv road before, it's a lot of time for something that might not happen and that you can't really talk about (sorry!). But maybe it will work out! You have to try right?

But the main thing is the graphic novel, which is a memoir...

Hark, A Vagrant: Mary Anning 1 "IndyWatch Feed Comics"



We'll get back to Mary Anning later. Is Kelis' milkshake song a gift to humanity, or what?

Hark, A Vagrant: Cloak and Dagger "IndyWatch Feed Comics"



I had a lot of fun with this on twitter, so I just kept on going with it. But you know, I'm always kind of touched by how strongly fans support their favourite characters, and there is a lot of love for Cloak and Dagger, and you can see why because there are some pretty great things about that pair. But that costume, come on, it's a big old slice of tit window pie. They don't always dress Dagger like that, but yeah they mostly do! But they probably won't on the tv show!

I didn't dwell on Cloak very much in a comic about tit windows, but, here's something. I tweeted this essay a while ago when I read it, but Cloak's lack of a body really brought it to mind again, and you should totally read it, though mostly it is about the character Cyborg, it is relevant here too:

Humanity Not Included: DC's Cyborg and the Mechanization of the Black Body by Robert Jones, Jr.

Hark, A Vagrant: Peasants #3 "IndyWatch Feed Comics"



I wouldn't say these two follow the rules of medieval society exactly, but they are my favourite pair of dirty peasants. And at least in reality they would have lived in a time without the cursed plague of KEEP CALM. A better time.

Today's book recommendation is Ian Mortimer's classic The Time Traveller's Guide to Medieval England. It's so good! And if you think you don't like reading history, this one will make you think again, it's so entertaining and engaging.

Hark, A Vagrant: Karl Heinrich Ulrichs "IndyWatch Feed Comics"



Here is a comic about a man I admire very much! Karl Heinrich Ulrichs was an early champion of LGBT rights, and maybe the first person to speak publicly for them as he did in Munich in 1867. The last picture there is the place where he spoke. He used the word "Urning" for gay men, a term he coined, because even the word "homosexual" wasn't invented yet (it would be soon after). I only found out about him last fall, which is surprising and also sadly not surprising. But he was really amazing, I'm sure you will agree.

Hark! A Vagrant is a strange mix, sometimes the comics are straight jokes and sometimes, like here, I just want to talk about someone I think is great in a way that's easy to pick up on - comics are great for that! And I tell you what, I got so much out of this particular collection, of all the things I read. Here is a link:

Karl Heinrich Ulrichs:
Urning Pride and the First Known Gay Activist

Translated and Edited by Michael Lombardi-Nash, PhD


The document is a mix of things, essays and Karl's own writings and I think you will like it very much. I'm going to leave you with the epitaph on the stone his friends put up for him, he had many friends and admirers. It reads like a little affectionate biography.


Karl Henrich Ulrichs
who was born in Westerfeld near East Friesland
He distinguished himself and became renowned among
his equals by his mental faculties in the humanities and other disciplines
through instruction he received in Gottingen and Berlin.
He was concerned about new problems in anthropology and jurisprudence.
He had a remarkable sense of duty.
He was not elevated to prosperity nor was he humbled
by the attacks from his adversaries.
As a pauper he left the region of Hanover and went into exile.
He traveled through a great part of Europe.
He displayed everywhere a model character by his knowledge and virtue.
Finally he came to live in Aquila in central Italy to live for a long time.
He edited a Latin journal titled "Alaudae...

Hark, A Vagrant: Joan of Arc "IndyWatch Feed Comics"



Hello! It's been a while.

If you're a fan of Joan of Arc (and I mean, who isn't? Who has ever been like her before or since?) you should definitely look up the 1928 movie, The Passion of Joan of Arc. Maria Falconetti as Joan gives what is widely regarded as one of the best performances on film, ever - though certainly at a cost. Mesmerizing.

Why I Built This Console

A few months ago, I built this console for my sister.  It turned out so well, I had to build another shorter version.

Essential Two Step Stool "IndyWatch Feed Diy"

 

 

This stool might look a little complicated, but I promise you - if you can squeeze a jigsaw trigger, you can make it.  It's just sides cut from a 1x12, a 1x12 bottom step, a 1x6 top step, and some 1x2s in there for extra support.  Once you get it cut out, it's like 10 minutes to make.

 

 

It's got a full, wide bottom step, so I have found myself even using it.  

 

 

 

 

Durable Finish

Not only has this step stool held up well in sturdiness, but the finish really is amazing me.  The stool is still in very good shape for ten years of use!

 

Our power sander won't sand a curved cut, so these sanding pads work pretty good.

Another note - I was able to get a pretty good jigsaw cut on the two sides by using a fresh wood blade and clamping the two sides together and cutting as one.  This really helps minimize the need for sanding.

After vacuuming the step stool ... we are ready for primer!

 

 

I used this Glidden Trim and Door paint and am amazed at how well the finish has held up.  It was a paint to use because it's oil based, but so worth it.

 

I'll admit, I was a little nervous when I peeked in the paint room and took a look in the can - the paint seperates out so you must mix it.  Nothing a little gentle stirring can't fix.

"This console table was a pretty easy build and looks great. We had the lumber store rip the boards to the size we needed. We used solid maple boards instead of plywood. We mitered the corners to avoid seeing end grain. Followed the plans pretty close. Used 6" hairpin legs from Amazon painted antique bronze to match handles. Very pleased!"

We used cedar fence pickets for the doors because we didn't have any pallets, and I love how they add texture (and are also very economical)
