My painting SUNFLOWERS

“Life is not what a person experiences, but what and how he remembers it.”
(Gabriel García Márquez, One Hundred Years of Solitude)

The first panel shows a crow with the title "How to live a good life". The second panel shows a crow cawing at itself in the mirror with the subheading "Make friends". The next panel says "Explore" and shows a crow looking into a commercial waste bin. The next says "Try new things" with a crow eating something vile. The next one says "Be curious" and shows the crow grabbing a hissing cat's tail". The final frame says "Get a hobby" and shows the crow looking closely at a book of matches.

really feeling this one again today

"I have come to believe over and over again that what is most important to me must be spoken, made verbal and shared, even at the risk of having it bruised or misunderstood. That the speaking profits me, beyond any other effect."

Anyway, anytime I see this kind of bullshit it's more and more of a testament to the way legislation is often shamelessly written to exclude regular people.

I wish there was a name for this kind of oblique legislation. "You're Not The Target But Actually You Are" Legislation?

Probably too much of a mouthful.

And it's unlawful bc the policy prioritizes "political concerns" over financial ones. But the legislation was clearly written to penalize BDS work here. The primary target was making BDS harder to implement - all under the guise of neutrality.

Here in FL we have a slew of anti-BDS laws, but they're couched in "fiduciary responsibility" language. Passing an ethical investment policy (like some good folks have done elsewhere in the US) is basically unlawful here.

It's interesting to me that Idaho banned "new city flags" when the primary target was Pride flags. It's doubly interesting that the argument was framed in terms of "government neutrality."

Lorde really cooked w this one

"I have come to believe over and over again that what is most important to me must be spoken, made verbal and shared, even at the risk of having it bruised or misunderstood. That the speaking profits me, beyond any other effect."
