  1. PRIOR ENTRY https://aalbc.com/tc/events/event/796-art-comments-08142026/ NEXT ENTRY ? COMMENT URL https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/1374930866/5309439953 COMMENT CONTENT Beautiful Edition I hope more hardboiled comes in @leothefox are you a star trek fan? If not, which is the most penny dreadful star trek tale? I argue deep space nine episode "A Pale Moonlight" is the most. Lagos is the capitol of nigeria, I didn't expect a referral to it. HAve you been to lagos? I bet you have been to NYC by the design @Redsterfish I enjoyed the third and penultimate stanza the most. The third I enjoyed but needed to search what a lorry is. a big moving vehicle The penultimate has nice illustration @Whelveaway beautiful sketches, did you see the colors or chose them yourself? @Chaosfive-55 tiss the season for the lunatic's dirge, my favorite stanza is the second. Love the imagery of "Feel the gelid liquescence of River Styx Falls" ohh and curious case of the cougar's daughter is a nice title I will love to see a film version, with a woman falling of the side of the desk like that Your women are so polite, apologizing for their actions and an uncommon car.. hmm why the mitsubishi? Of course your detective wants chili haha I do not think i ever saw a detective who read pulp before, nice touch. I think I read this before:but it was fun then and fun now @VinceAndrews that portal was really like that at the knaresborough? It is interesting how the gate behind this old door. Nice details fellow inker. @CapnDeek373 the house design or the environment about the house was inspired by the home of your youth? I see onyx, and I think i see bob hanging on the windowsill. I saw the "tubes" about the basement first, is that power from some creature or world going to the building or the buildings innards being absorbed? C Literature Coffee and CigaretSmoked it off Drank it down Streetfighters T Literature The Lunatic's DirgeHark to the clittering-clattering tones Of the rambunctious army of rattling bones! The Dead are a-dragging us all to our doom, Down the endless insatiable maw of the tomb!Hear the skittery-scratching of rats in the walls! Feel the gelid liquescence of River Styx Falls As the pale slimy waters wash eye-sockets clean, Giving our bones a fresh, shiny new sheen!See the skeletons dance in the light of the Moon, Where the ghastly ghouls gather to gibber and croon In the vast pit of Tartarus where mankind shall dwell, Down the dank, dismal gullet of eternal Hell!!!!!(maniacal laughter, fading into silence) C Literature Curious Case of the Cougar's Daughter I was sitting at my desk, flipping through an old issue of THRILLING DETECTIVE TALES and pretending not to listen as Liberty's prospective client, a worried-looking fellow with thinning hair and a thickening midsection, told her about his aunt's new boyfriend. "He's in his early thirties, Ms. Morgan--Aunt Bedelia is fifty-seven! I don't trust him, but my aunt is quite smitten and won't listen to my warnings! I want you to follow him." I rolled my eyes behind the magazine--it was exactly the kind of case I wouldn't touch with a ten-meter cattle prod. Same reason I don't follow people's spouses around-where's the mystery in jobs like that? But as Liberty likes to remind me, a job is a job; still, better her than me. "And what is his name, Mr. Chapman?" Liberty asked, notebook in hand; Arnold Chapman grimaced. "He calls himself Reginald Crandall--the Third, if you please! Probably a fake name...he's about six-one with slick black hair and a pencil mustache!

Well, they try to buy their credibility but like arthur case, it falls down eventually. The truth can't be bought, and it never stays enslaved forever. Helpful big star, and messering isnt' wrong, health is as important as skills. Interesting, Mr. Flores postal history.Nice journey aside flores. Nice cameo, I know who patrov is, nice. Nice turn of Conrad, all is well. but no!! not PAtrov, i was hoping for a cheesy next appearance lovely closure your detective has a nice voice. @STARLINED-CREATIVE beautiful design, the blend of 3d figure with 2d illustration @RiEile ahh impressionist and good eye keeping the original season @yesa1971 lovely ink abstract, what inspired your design? @RighiCarlo you say mixed media for native american , I cognize paint but I don't know the other media @300ChickenNuggets what are the dimensions, I gamble, fourteen feet height by eighteen feet width.

I only recently became aware of dolly parton, but it seems from all the posts about her, she may have been open minded and wore such glasses. @heyroger I know some but not most of david bowie's music, did bowie and parton ever create any music? COMMENT URL https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/1370680418/5309465431 COMMENT CONTENT Congratulations @BitterBeanJuicer That smile you found is amazing photographers. All my inks have sketches I made. Da Vinci and Rembrandts sketches are treated in market as complete drawings. Being a sketch artists is great. Quick, idea driven. It isn't about polishing. So share more of your sketches. love the eyes of your cat. Moonbeam is cool, as someone late to the stamp world but having fun with it, nice to come across a fellow stamper my stamps, any thoughts to them https://www.deviantart.com/hddeviant/gallery/98865585/stamps COMMENT URL https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/1375733719/5309466718 COMMENT CONTENT Question, is nsfw content the most profitable on deviantart? For example with books, the romance is the biggest genre in terms of sales and money, more than fantasy or horror or other. if nsfw the most profitable sector in deviantart? and I don't think that is a problem. Online adult content has always been the most profitablenon physical sale. COMMENT URL https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/1376545231/5309467213 COMMENT CONTENT What determinant of popularity is the most viral from the stats provided by deviantart to users? is it views? comments? watchers? i know all say something but which is the strongest determinant. Someone else , elsewhere online said most folks lurk online. so comments quantity may not reflect interest or who is paying attention. .. and watchers can be bots. so I gamble views is the most, what say your experience? COMMENT URL https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/1378458345/5309467561 COMMENT CONTENT I know this is something that must be adjusted to reach the right place and can change. When JK Rowling wanted to publish a story under a pseudonym her publisher outed her and the price of the book raised too. What are your thoughts on tip jars?

Is the image part of a story or a world. You don't say in the description, and it has a flag. maybe pirates? @SucroseFrogArtwork3 an ancestor to the elephant from wasterat thanks for finding and sharing it @aztlanwayne were you honest about august 18th I don't recall anything in the news about that. Sexy design, and I like the color. But thanks for the background, completes the work @Novadrome I admit i noticed this was abstract impresisonism quite quickly I like how for me, it seems like eye of a person peering from th eother side of a broken wall, but then also a large winged creature flying toward where the sun appears in the sky and then the simple unknown. Nice @RohelineBear priestess of circuits. has a great look. I am just finished looking at metropolis again so I feel the machine human's vibes. @MarianaKorett love the activity and sense of motion amongst the collective. Nice, and vibrant colors. what coloured pencil brand do you use?

I sense, strawberry frosted whole wheat donuts? am i right? @GerardoGomez did you have a photo to reference the angle over the district ? or did you do it from memory? @SethFitts beautiful white cat, and love its geometrically contrasting necklace @TTTimT21 is together but imcompatible mixed media? I sense ink and maybe collage pieces? always be creating COMMENT URL https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/1378483990/5309479082 COMMENT CONTENT Nice feature @vagrantscout @XoAngelBeatsoX lovely prose in your description about star trek. Wise was a proven high quality director for his successes in various genres and I think he comprehended what star trek needed so well that every single star trek movie after has highlighted the enterprise as representing this special way of life. My question is, as someone who does cosplay. What are your thoughts about the costume of the motion picture in comparison to wrath of khan and onward for the original crew? I notice you chose the wrath of khan outfits. I think the motion picture uniforms are less busy and straight forward. I can see people in the future, far future, having a much starker fashion sense than today. I think the outfits of next generation and later seem to suggest Wise was correct in his foretelling fashion. cause the next generation/deepspace nine/voyager/enterprise/discovery uniforms seem closer to the motion picture than wrath of khan. What say you? @pinkythepink an hour and a half, nice work on the badge. LEonard Nimoy I love as a fellow artist. The truth, and looking at shatner's recent documentary proves this, is that paramount never really cared or cares for star trek. Paramount wants to go another way, it is a cash cow, but at its heart star trek is not like all the other major media film brands. They can't milk it into a constant stream of terror like an alien or predator. It isn't vast as a star wars, Star trek has a controlled science fiction. It doesn't have the modern escapism or fantasy that marvel or DC can provide. Star Trek isn't now, by star trek's own accounts now is messy now isn't good, now isn't elegant, now isn't the best, now isn't the hope, the hope is later, not now by star trek's account and I think that makes some people retort from star trek. As mccoy said, today is the dark ages. People today call yesterday the dark ages but star trek calls today the dark ages, spider man is the dark ages. the avengers is the dakr ages. superman is the dark ages. Leonard nimoy comprehended paramount didn't care for star trek even with its value and he was the one who was prepared for wrath of kahn, when whispers say paramount was looking to shut star trek down after the motion picture. And then Nimoy did the whales and I paraphrase him "we had death in every single film, deckerd and haialiyah, spock, and kirk's son, we wanted a story with no deaths and the heart of star trek" and for me, I love the whales and I argue it is the best of the star trek films. Khan is still the best collective performance and a great part 2 film. But in terms o fmood, upbeat positivity, nothing beats the whales. Did anyone buy the bead dresses? they look real cool @DrMistyTang it's funny you mention Uhura isn't snark cause in parallel uhura isn't disrespected. When you look at the film Alien, ripley's love interest dallas, doesn't trust her position and gets everyone but her killed. She has to fight everyone , including the other female crew member to get her point across of to be believed. in terminator 2, sarah connor is in an insane asylum, while being 100% correct. yes if she was a man she would probably be in the same situation because of the various external interest. In star wars, leah has to constantly battle with han or luke who treat her as some fine lady or gentle female. She never treats them with the same gentleness even though she loves them both. The brilliance of Uhura is she is one of the few female characters who for the most part is never questioned by males because she is a woman. She isn't treated less or greater than. She isn't treated like a flower that can't survive, nor is she treated like an idiot r someone who doesn't warrant her post. How many other female characters in well known media can say they haven't been questioned based on them being a female by a male? Yes, I love the Vulcan Harp / Ka’athyra too . The funnest thing to me, is it is an open instrument. It doesn't have an official way . solo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVABxsfz6UU accompanied by a theramin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xRfbWrI03gc not vulcan but fandom loves fandom https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4n2dGwYcp9k @47ness I have no idea of any of those pets.

    Dear Friends, Building on the success of the Lafayette Fellowship’s launch last year and following a successful Summer Leadership Program with our inaugural cohort, I am delighted to announce that applications for the 2027–2028 Lafayette Fellowship are now open. They will remain open through December 1, 2026. This program offers a unique opportunity to join the next generation of young leaders committed to strengthening the transatlantic relationship. The Lafayette Fellowship funds one year of master's-level study in France for up to 30 outstanding American students. Open to both Francophone and non-Francophone candidates, the program partners with leading French universities and grandes écoles across STEM, the humanities, the social sciences, and the arts, with degree programs offered in French or entirely in English. In addition to their academic studies, Fellows participate in the French-American Leadership Program, which provides an immersive introduction to French and European innovation, culture, and public policy, alongside mentorship opportunities. Last summer, our inaugural Fellows traveled to Paris, Avignon, Arles, and Marseille for the opening chapter of the program. Through masterclasses with leading figures, visits to major institutions, and unique cultural experiences, they discovered France from multiple perspectives while building a strong community of their own. Their journey will continue throughout the year, with additional sessions in Strasbourg and the Paris region. You can learn more about the inaugural cohort's Summer Leadership Program here. [ https://villa-albertine.org/va/lafayette/inside-the-2026-lafayette-fellows-leadership-program/ ] As our inaugural Fellows now begin their academic year in France, we look forward to identifying our next cohort of Lafayette Fellows. Learn more about our upcoming informational webinars and additional program updates on the Lafayette Fellowship website.

  8. URL https://www.deviantart.com/hddeviant/journal/BlackHistory337-7-High-Fantasy-1368378709 CONTENT #BlackHistory337 is about the time outside the 28 days designated as Black History Month, an opportunity to celebrate the contributions of the Black community during the other 337 days of the year. Let's continue learning all year long, because history doesn't stop when February ends. For this edition of #Black337 the focus is the genre commonly advertised as "High Fantasy". Fables , Fictional Slave Narratives , Comics , Detective Stories , plus High Fantasy are all fiction. Fables are fantasy as they have magical worlds/entities/objects/ or similar. Magic is defined as unsupported by what is known or science. Sometimes fictional slave narratives or comics or detective stories can be fantasy, but they don't have to be. So what is "High Fantasy" ? "High Fantasy" is fantasy with alot of details: Maps/Appendixes/Artworks. For example, no character type or story element in Tolkiens "Lord of the Rings" is absent in other fantasies. Magical Beings like elves or eagles who can talk are in all fantasy. Magical worlds like Mordor are in all fantasy. Magical cities like Osgiliath are in all fantasy. People descended from magical bloodlines like Aragorn are in all fantasy. Wizards like Saruman are in all fantasy. The variance in "Lord of the rings" are the details: maps, appendixes with bloodlines, appendixes with histories after the main contents of the book. In Global Black Fiction ,from the Song of Sundiata to High John to Anansi , fantasy elements are plentiful. But, very few works in the near past from the time of this writing, had the details that make "High Fantasy" variant from other fantasy.

THE ROLL as we have text and video not just images I place links to the most active post based on (number of emojis+ number of comments) from @richardmurrayhumblr https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/823805738344431616/cat-nights-art?source=share from @cass-3-tte https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/823850141566042112?source=share from @banzaboiieatskilishii2 https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/825750816577208320?source=share from @maritokyo https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/823858519222648832?source=share from @kiratheartist https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/823979483405090816/up-for-auction-on-ebay-kiratheartist?source=share from @lololalaskttles https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/824160637672357888/my-battle-nun-oc-adela-and-her-war-unicorn-miracle?source=share from @noway78 https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/826321102909407232?source=share from @peachyblkdemonslayer https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/825307526652461056/did-a-slight-redesign-for-lulu-from-big-love-from?source=share from @rainbowmedleyarts https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/824406435347709952/profalex-bradford-and-his-bradford-singers?source=share from @thesingularity2 https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/824592877472579584?source=share from @musashden https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/824615410910609408?source=share from @whatifiwantthesatisfaction https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/824973860306894848?source=share from @jollofmunchrr https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/825168375580917760/im-having-formatting-issues-and-its-bothering-me?source=share from @bruthablack https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/825298724780703744/100-black-owned-order-yours-today?source=share from @wertys-art https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/825782715931590656?source=share from @servaaal51 https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/825623504258990080/a-recent-character-design-of-mine?source=share from @renlo https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/825880036513021952/im-opening-a-few-slots-for-commissions-you-find?source=share prior month https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler/post/823721913124896768/july-2026-top-post-roll?source=share toppostrolls enjoy the best post per month https://www.tumblr.com/communities/black-artist-on-tjambler?tab=recent&tagged=toppostroll Source: tumblr.com #toppostroll#blackartistoftumblr#richardmurrayhumblr#cass-3-tte#banzaboiieatskilishii2#maritokyo#kiratheartist#lololalaskttles#noway78#peachyblkdemonslayer#rainbowmedleyarts#thesingularity2#musashden#whatifiwantthesatisfaction#jollofmunchrr#bruthablack#wertys-art#servaaal51#renlo
