    If they actually removed it, and didn’t have anything in the rules about topicality or humor, they suck and should be ridiculed

      They at least let him keep his prize, though.

    A piece he described as a “creepy sex dungeon” was removed before judging last year.

    Yeah, so this isn’t this guy’s first time pushing the envelope with the miniatures art.

    It’s official: Kentucky hates fun.

    Poling added that “the guys” who may have been dragged to look at the miniature displays “got to enjoy a build that was meant specifically for them, in an area they might not otherwise be entertained.”

    I mean… he isn’t wrong…

    15 years ago I did a school paper on the pros of psychoactive drugs, including a presentation in front of my class.

    Nowadays I’d have to make a public YouTube video to stop the hate I’d receive. Or at least get kicked out of class.

    Nobody really cared about stuff that wasn’t affecting them.

    Trying to control art defeats the purpose.

    Yeah… that’s fair actually, it really is pretty hard to ‘fake casting couch’ your relatives
