@Rayterrific Looks kind of Felixy.
Seems like #FelixTheCat is a recurring graffiti motif.
I'm kind of curious how that developed.
Felix does have a scrappy, subversive attitude that might appeal to underground artists.
He's also (by design) easy to draw.
But I feel like there's a story here.
This turned up in my FB feed of all places, its probably from some old skool anarchist zine.. #FelixTheCat #antifa
@montrealantifasciste I knew #felixthecat was on our side!

NOSFERATU (1922, Prana Film, 35mm) Count Orlock engages an estate agent to help him with a transaction. F.W. Murnau’s astonishing masterpiece based on Bram Stoker’s Dracula is a visual feast and an absolute must see!

I believe I have everything loaded up for the recycling center. I can't leave for an hour and a half, so plenty of time (and space) to gather more.
On a side note, I also finally got around to putting #FelixTheCat stickers on the scoot-chair.
Talking to a dear friend and we brought up the old cartoon Felix the Cat.
It got me remembering that really trippy steampunk movie from 1988.
And I found it's on the Internet Archive for free!!!!
It seems there was once Felix the Cat soda pop. #FelixTheCat

There is a #FelixTheCat video game. It's from a ways back (originally for NES/GB).
I have it running on a #RaspberryPi via #RetroPie. It's not terribly engrossing but I have this retro gaming arrangement set up by a treadmill and its a decent distraction while getting (mild) exercise.
Gameplay is basic side-scrolling run-and-jump, like a Mario or Sonic game.
After watching an actual #Felix cartoon last night (Felix Starts the Day Right, 1924, on #Super8. #BelieveInFilm!) it occurred to me that a video game actually in the spirit of the cartoons could actually be a great game. Like playing music, grabbing the notes, and using them as tools (or just smacking opponents with them)--or making an umbrella out of your tail. Now that would be fun!
