Latest Picks

Latest pcks
Whatever’s on my mind really.

A peek at illustration inspiring celebrity sexiness, quirky news stories from inherently pornified pop culture, tips, sketchbook and work in progress, reviews and other things of interest; whatever’s on my mind really—which more fool you if you ever take that seriously.

Latest Picks is a sort of mini-blog for daily thoughts and picks. Longer articles, stories & sketches are found in the full-size blog, where indeed Latest Picks are moved when updates to a story make it too large.

Note: Both Latest Picks and Blog are to be retired at the end of September, although both will remain available indefinitely as an archived part of the site. No further updates to past stories will be made.

Picks hiatus

Ariana Grande—The Champagne Incident

Regretfully I find I no longer have the time to maintain the mix of pornified pop culture picks that is Latest Picks and Blog. The last few years have been somewhat turbulent personally and I have found outlining and maintaining updates to stories has took me down a path that seemingly daily takes me further, and further from the purpose of those news and gossip stories—being topical background for illustration and caricature.

Therefore, both the mini-blog that is Latest Picks and the full Blog shall be sidelined with no further updates to past stories made, and within a month or so become an archived part of the site—although remaining available indefinitely so as to prevent any link rot for those those that have indeed kindly linked.

Sadly, this will also mean there will be no Best of Picks on New Year’s Eve, a shame because I have always thoroughly enjoyed looking back through picks to sum up the year, with the picking of proving an enjoyable seasonal talking point with those with whom I am in touch.

In future Gallery image pages shall them self contain any topical story from which it is inspired rather than as has been until now a link leading to the writeup of such in Picks. Hopefully that will assist getting my illustrative priorities straight and I hope those that have kindly sent stories will continue to do so as, for sure, it is the amount of time available that has diminished rather than my interest.

Chadwick Boseman: Tributes pour in for Black Panther actor (bbc.co.uk).

Tributes are being paid to US actor Chadwick Boseman, who played Black Panther in the hit Marvel superhero film, after he died on Friday aged 43.

Boseman was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2016 but had never spoken about it publicly.

He died at his home in Los Angeles with his wife and family by his side.

The Black Panther, seen as a cultural milestone for having a largely black cast and a black director, being the first superhero film to get a nomination for best picture at the Oscars and his “Wakanda Forever” rallying cry inspiring a whole generation of young black men and women, with Boseman saying last year that the blockbuster had changed what it means to be “young, gifted and black”.

Yes, even exemplary well controlled diabetics can get angry when having an awfully bad hypo:

Are people with diabetes more prone to aggression? (thediabetescouncil.com).

This phenomenon is often referred to “hangry” (meaning feeling angry when you are hungry). If this irritable state can happen to any healthy person who experiences a change in their blood glucose level, imagine the ordeals individuals with diabetes frequently go through on a daily basis.

But with the “hangry” portmanteau unfortunately making it sound as if you are trashing something with pouted lower lip whilst rubbing your tum rather than, as is more the case, a missed or interrupted meal after insulin has been taken or where the coverage for the meal’s carbohydrates has been badly misjudged or an insulin dose has been accidentally taken twice.

Tongue Digest hiatus

It is with great sadness that I have to say that I no longer have adequate time to maintain The Celebrity Tongue Digest, and so it will now join my other Digests on hiatus.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all visitors, and especially those that have visited regularly and those that have suggested and indeed sent links and images for inclusion.
