kill the rhetoric that americans are so lazy that they won’t take farm jobs. americans take labor intensive jobs all the time. the reason no americans will take farm jobs is because agricultural work is exempt from the vast majority of labor laws and labor protections, including the use of child labor. so only immigrants - people who have little to no protection from the law or other options for work - take most of these jobs. we have created a permanent underclass of labor and then say that americans are just lazy for not volunteering to be part of the underclass.

there are actually good discussions to be had about how alienated many americans are from food production (hi hello that’s what my only popular post is about), but the real solution to this problem is to protect agricultural workers, citizens or not. ban child labor in its entirety. punish corporations and farm owners that abuse and poison their workers. reform the immigration process so that these people aren’t barred from legal protection and recourse.

agricultural workers have been exploited since the dawn of civilization, but the US in specific has been doing this since slavery, and it evolved in the 30s when FDR’s labor laws excluded them specifically because most agricultural workers at the time were black. now it’s mostly latino immigrants.

food doesn’t fucking pick or slaughter itself. but citizens aren’t going to take these jobs when the entire industry is rife with abuse - both legal and illegal - and horrific wages and working conditions.

A comic about two knights meeting unexpectedly in the Depths… and first impressions.

Had this idea in my head for a while and I just rushed through it to deliver

seaquestions:

A design of the goddess Fina from Dark Souls. She is a giant lady dressed in white drapery with six gold arms all posing delicately, and instead of a face, there is a bright white light. Next to her if text saying "Fina" and "Thoughts for her design were like, "her beauty is so divine that you can't even see it." so you get her followers saying stuff like, "only those who are worthy can see her face" or w/e. But you gotta wonder if she even has a true form or if she's just a big bundle of gold arms." Additionally, there is a doodle of her "face" blushing and a tiny Lautrec on the bottom left for scale.ALT
A drawing of a room with a giant four poster bed and a red carpet before it. Next to it is a comic panel depicting Fina's hand poking out of drapery to touch Lautrec, who is much smaller. Fina is also saying "Favored one, be embraced once more by your goddess. I see you have kept your humanity. Good." At the top right, there is text saying "IK she'd probably talk in thee/thou/what-have-you but idk how 2 do it so... whatevr."ALT
A drawing in shades of gold depicting many arms reaching out from some curtains towards a white soul shaped like a stylised sun.ALT

finally had the energy to draw the bajillion hands my fina design required.
