1. A large traffic light stands in the middle of nowhere, with only a wire fence in the background. The sky is the deep blue of either dawn or dusk, with golden light on the horizon. The red aspect is brightly lit, the yellow aspect is dimly lit, and where the green aspect would be is a black mouth with fangs. As if that weren't unsettling enough, a crow is perched on top of the light.

1. A scene at sunrise or sunset. The sky is a mix of blue and gold. The sun is hazy and close to the horizon. There is a large blue meadow in which sits a giant stone obelisk. There are two faces on either side of the obelisk. The largest face is on the right side. It is smiling, with its eyes mostly closed. The smaller face is above, on the left. It is craggier and frowning.

1. A small, grass-covered chunk of earth hovers in the air, like a tiny island in the vast blue sky. Sitting on top of the chunk of earth is a boxy, dark blue robot, its back to the viewer. The robot is holding onto a large red balloon, which might be keeping the island aloft. A few birds are in the distance.

1. A chaotic mixture of red and blue charts and graphs that form a frowning face. Two pie charts form the eyes, a bar chart defines the nose, and a jagged pair of red and blue lines are the mouth.

1. A large dark green metal sphere floats like a balloon in a blue-green sky. The balloon has a cable fixed to it below, and is haphazardly bolted together from various metal plates. Two small pipes are sticking off of it on the lower right. Sitting on top is a person in a chair, holding a telescope up to their eye. The telescope is trained on a bright round object in the distant sky.

@dansup this sounds very cool. Running my own Pixelfed instance was a bit beyond my abilities, but I'm pretty experienced with hosted PHP/MySQL apps.
Will this look like Pixelfed, or have its own design?

1. A mostly dark environment, illuminated only by a bright yellow bulb hanging from the top right of the drawing. Approaching the bulb from the left is a reddish figure holding up the frayed end of an electrical cable. There is a windup key sticking out of the figure's back. The figure's head is a sphere with a frowning emoji face on it, floating above its neck.

@powersoffour @docpop Bonus points to Reboot for starting off their supervillain monologue with an appropriated William Gibson quote. This whole circus—the people, the ideologies, the tech—sounds very Gibsonian indeed, and not in a good way.
(I do wonder who chose the static-filled CRT screens as a key visual motif for their website. Feels very much like a sly "you and I both know what we are" detail.)

1. A person sits alone on a park bench on a small hill, looking at what is either a sunrise or a sunset. The sky is pink fading to blazing yellow. A single bird wheels in the sky.

1. A tall, narrow building with a pointed roof, about the size and shape of an outhouse. The building is actually a trailer, with a single wheel and a small balcony in the back. It is brown, with orange pinstripes. Most of the side is taken up with two colorful stained glass windows. Above the windows is the Facebook "angry face" emoji. Hanging on the right side of the trailer is a small sign with "Open" in red letters. Inside the trailer is a large shape; a blurry silhouette seen through the glass. The sky and the background are yellow, with the sun hanging high in the sky.

1. A person sits on a dark, planetlike sphere hanging in a blue, starry sky. The sphere is about the size of a small house relative to the person. The person is sitting at a small round cafe table, illuminated by a ceiling lamp hanging from above. What the lamp is attached to is not clear. In the sky to the right is a crescent moon.

1. A large meadow with tall grass and wildflowers. The sky is a very pale, mostly white blue. In the distance is the blurry hint of a tree line. Hovering in the air is a stone cube with a question mark carved into it; an object that should be familiar to anybody who's played Mario. The cube is covered with vegetation and has moss hanging from below. Colored butterflies flutter around it. On the ground, someone approaches the cube holding a ladder. The ladder does not look long enough to reach the question mark. A few birds circle high in the sky.

Just really disappointed to see this kind of thing from Van Gogh, he was one of my favorite artists

1. A self-portrait of Van Gogh, showing him wearing a blue hat, a green shirt, and an ear bandage that looks like the solidarity binkies that Trump supporters are plastering on themselves these days.

I mostly avoid politics here, but I know there are creative folks who use Sticker Mule and may not be aware of what they are funding. I wasn't.
Anyone who places an order with Sticker Mule is automatically signed up to their mailing list without consent. That's not just marketing spam—it includes normalization propaganda for far-right extremism.
SM doesn't deserve your money, and your customers don't deserve their abuse. Safer alternatives here: https://mastodon.social/@docpop/112791438839648535

  Attached: 3 images In case you missed it, Sticker Mule is sending out "Trump 2024" emails and tweets. If you are looking for sticker alternatives, I highly recommend: Sticker Ninja https://linktr.ee/stickerninja Sticker Giant and The Sticky Brand are great alternatives too.

1. A small, weatherbeaten, wooden cabin. Only the right side is visible, including the right side of a window. Nothing is in the window. On top of the roof sits a cat. The cat is looking at a flying saucer hovering in the sky. The time of day is indeterminate; it could even be at night, although the sky looks quite bright. In the background is the blurry suggestion of a treeline. This is a monochrome drawing that looks like it was created in charcoal.

1. A very tall, dilapidated sign. The sign is an arrow shaped like an uppercase L, with the arrowhead at the base of the L, pointing right. The word "motel" is printed on the L in large, faded, red letters. The sign is weatherbeaten, with holes and patches on it, and is supported by a few rickety support beams. It appears to be in the middle of a desert: flat brown land, golden sky, yellow sun. The arrowhead is pointed at a small birdhouse directly to the right of the sign. Perched on top of the sign is a black bird.

1. The phrase "let's make better mistakes tomorrow", rendered in wild, psychedelically colored, dripping letters that look like they are a combination of spray paint and regular brush work.

1. A dark gray hill covered in grass. The time of day looks like either early morning or twilight. At the top of the hill, to the right of the drawing, is a large rectangular stone obelisk with the words "reject all" carved into it, and a giant red button—one of those round plastic things you might see on an arcade game or video controller—embedded in the stone. Somewhat down the hill, on the left side of the drawing, is the silhouette of a person. The person is approximately half the size of the obelisk. The sky is a mix of orange and yellow. High in the sky are two birds, perhaps hawks.

1. Something that looks like an extremely occult version of a playing card. On a gold background is placed a vertical gray rectangle with fraying edges and rounded corners. The rectangle has a faded red border inside it. The rectangle contains a scattered array of symbols, all drawn in red and gold, that are not arranged according to any order, but still seem to have a weird sort of precision to them. These symbols include: a large, inverted triangle with an eye in it and a star with rays above the eye; various permutations of stars inside circles; intricate icons of the sun and moon; a lightning bolt; and the letter "A" in the top left and lower right corners of the card, similar to an ace playing card. Oh, and also a sword, because swords are epic.

Designer, artist, iOS Notes limit pusher. I know the difference between a "font" and a "typeface", but I'm not obnoxious about it.A note: while I CW politics, and avoid offensive imagery entirely, I don't typically CW things like faces or food. My art is weird, often includes eyes/faces/masks, and can be (I'm told) somewhat eerie.
