I often think about how things ended for Mussolini and that brings me a little comfort.
imagine explaining to someone 10 years ago that this is about the vice president in 2025
You know the *only* reason he got out so fast was a reporter live posted about this for hours. And, a large amount of public pressure.
Every time someone gets grabbed, there has to be a robust public response immediately.
this is such good news. i think it is also an opportunity for democrats to state forthrightly that when they win power again everyone responsible for this crime will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law and will face the american people to answer for their lawlessness
We must all stand as a united front against the kidnapping and illegal detention of Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador.
Senator, I am willing to join you and help Organize other members of the House to do the same. @vanhollen.senate.gov
Hey, just a quiet reminder: it’s not true that people get more conservative as they age. *Populations* get more conservative as they age because poor and marginalized people die sooner.

PSA: library resources!
There's hoopla, too, for audio books. Our local library uses Libby, which also does ebooks.
I just downloaded Kanopy and Mango to try. 🤘

To the left of the house in the distance, is a cul-de-sac and a few other homes; it appears that this house is in a suburb.

No, it's not okay to use it for leftist or progressive causes. You don't stand with the working class or marginalized people by stealing their art without compensation.

An upside-down American flag hangs from El Capitan near Yosemite National Park’s Horsetail Fall on Saturday to protest the thousands of federal job cuts made by President Donald Trump’s administration. Tracy Barbutes/Special to the Chronicle
Brilliant protest. Yosemite National Park workers hung an upside-down American flag — traditionally a symbol of distress or a national threat — thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan.
I always feel out of place in fandom space bc it quickly devolves into hero worship which eventually devolves into "never meet your heroes" when your fave gets cancelled for valid or not reasons.
When did fandom become the obsession with actors in their real lives instead of sharing your love of a fun fictional world?
What they don't tell you is being vulnerable when you have anxiety makes you shit so much (this has been a classy post from a classy lady).
"Boohoo I don't have talent or work ethic I must steal the work of others while devastating the ecosystem boohoo!"
Not enough people talk about how ai "artists" are actually so lame. These wannabe artists don't wanna do the actual work to be one like damn take a community ed class or watch a youtube tutorial, you big effin loser ???
I get the distinct impression that some folks would rather run a cult than a community. Be mindful of the difference.
I keep forgetting that seeing other artists, going to their exhibits, hearing talks explaining their process, is actually fuel for my own creativity. Even as an non-exhibition artist!
Yall are supporting 100 HRT Harm Reduction Toolkits a day. 🥹

Hell yes, this rules!! 🏳️⚧️⛑️
Normal part of the process sometimes, you got this dude!!! You're strong and powerful!!
Every review of AI is like: This isn’t very useful and it makes it harder to do simple tasks than if I just did it myself. Riddled with errors. Can’t see anyone using this. I feel stupider having tried this. That said I believe it will soon make human cognition redundant and eradicate us all.
Promotional event flyer for Midway Contemporary Art Gallery’s fundraiser event ‘Return of the Monster Drawing Rally.’ The flyer is sparsely designed with black text on a white background. The center text reads ‘Return of the Monster Drawing Rally’ in a typeface that looks like dripping blood, which is reminiscent of Halloween, vintage horror movies, metal band typefaces, and monster truck rally typefaces. In each corner of the flyer, there is more informational text (in a Helvetica typeface) about the event. The information reads: Midway Contemporary Art. 1509 NE Marshall St., Minneapolis, MN, 55413. Free Admission, All Drawings $35, Family Friendly. Saturday, February 8, 2025, 2-6PM.
