Howdy folks!

We've been made aware that people are having issues accessing the Tumblr page for the prints, specifically that people need to be able/willing to sign into/make a Tumblr account. We're figuring out the permissions for that in the meantime, and brainstorming access otherwise.

For our US-American followers, we hope you have had a pleasant 35th anniversary of the ADA, and that you can spend some time resting, in community, etc. You deserve to take a moment of respite in these times, it's necessary to keep moving forward.

We see you, we stand with you, and we want to create together—both art and a more accessible, inclusive geoscience culture.

If you feel so inclined, print out a copy or two (or more!) and leave them wherever curious eyes may find them.
We hope that the artistic expressions and underrepresented voices captured by this issue and those to come will start overdue conversations about the disabled experience within geosci

Skeet from Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com "Insanity–Trump signs an order blaming Biden and DEI for flight dangers

Not insanity. Racism. White supremacy. Re-segregation. Eugenics. Exclusion. Hating Black people.

Call it what it is. Stop giving these fools cover by calling it insanity.

Note: I reskeeted this & then deleted because I can't have this fool's face on my skyline so I just put the original skeet.

Our submission window closes in 31 hours! You have until 11:59pm CST tomorrow (Friday, January 31st) to submit any art, poetry, writing, collages, etc. to our first issue of Disability in Geoscience! :)
