the first of a couple of ghibli prints i’m gonna have at smash in sydney this july! chihiro and haku from spirited away, aka the embodiment of all my childhood animal/spirit/dragon companion fantasies
I JUST learned that this shirt cost them $10,000 to put into this movie… but they refused to compromise because they were like: he’s the hugest Golden Girls fan… this has to make the movie… so they paid $10,000 to use Bea Arthur’s likeness on this shirt… Ryan Reynolds, you’re doing Deadpool so right.
They traded all the guns in the final climactic showdown for Bea Arthur’s face. Worth it.
I’m kind of surprised this is the first time I’ve drawn Lunala! I’ve loved its design ever since I first saw it; definitely one of my favorite legendaries.
Sure, “Medicare For All” and similar schemes sound good, and sure they’ve worked in a large number of other countries, but don’t forget the hidden catches!
Medicare For All would cost a lot of money, as opposed to private insurance, which is free.
Medicare For All would sometimes deny people coverage for certain care, as opposed to private insurance, which always pays for everything.
Medicare For All would deprive people of other options, as opposed to private insurance, where your employer gets to freely choose which option you get.
Medicare For All would make citizens responsible for the expenses of people who were irresponsible with their own self-care, as opposed to private insurance, which only covers yoga instructors and triathletes.
Finally, Medicare For All would be available to everyone, even the undeserving, as opposed to private insurance, which is carefully allocated on the basis of moral merit.
For those who can’t tell, (probably because they’ve never personally dealt with insurance in any form yet) this whole post is being sarcastic.
