I think we all know who the system is trying to beat down:

…these companies are getting desperate to force certain people onto crypto currency. Gotta wonder where this ends: some form of sexworker digital cash that gets regulated to the point where it’s more trouble than an IRL pimp.

Daily Show did a bit about this years ago: lawmakers pushing legislation to ban raping dead puppies, because it makes it more thrilling when lawmakers rape dead puppies.

The joke is authorities believe this shit shields them from suspicion. Morality isn’t the same as helping; it’s more suspect.

The more depraved and vile secrets we uncover about this world’s elites and their predatory predilections, the more they’re going to clamp down on anything harmlessly kinky β€” just to appear like they’ve distanced themselves from it.

NEVER trust moral crusaders (and corporations).

And! … an unhealthy mix of political outrage, too β€” because passivity is not a Buddhist virtue.

Just another day of the rich and powerful proving they’re not at all the brilliant minds they pretend to be, but more groupthink lazy mortals following ONLY a single tailor the GOP trusts, because otherwise, they’d risk a β€œtan suite” scandal.

They are so much lighter than I could have imagined. And tougher than half the metal clips on bikes. But mainly, I never had issues with cars seeing me since I started using them.

Save a life; make your bike an attention whore.

From biking at least 1 hour every day…

to maybe 1 hour every other day…

to 1 hour 2 or 3 days a week…

to bike busted; to rebuilding a new bike…

to no biking except stationary bike once a week (made from broken bike)…

STRAIGHT OVER β€” to bike 2 hours on a β€œtest drive”.

I fucked up; am fucked up.

No favorite. But thanks for confirming my gf is a true horse girl. Hers is peanut butter.

Bird with skull head, tucked in the jaw lives a little mouse, don't forget the snail climbing up the branches

Artwork for the 11th Annual Record Store Day, commissioned by Eclipse Records in downtown St. Paul. Metallic silver ink; looks great but clogs up the screen if you’re not careful.

Always trying to keep the clutter in my life from spilling over. Yes, I’m still organized. But this is how that feels. 3-color screen print.

I liked the remake of Evil Dead. It leaves the old material to stand on its own while exploring themes such as addiction and trust (in regards to demon possession). Ash still got a streaming series, so there’s NOTHING to complain about.

It’s not bad, it’s just the situation is … unique.

There’s a dull pulse of pain, but I got full range of motion. Just need occasional cold packs.

I’m more disappointed I can’t think of any jokes for this.

So long and Godspeed, giant metal vagina.

Your absence will leave a giant hole in our gallery’s ambiance.

Crushed my left hand under a pink 9-ft steel abstract vagina, as we took down the SafeWord erotic art show.

This year, we at Otherworldly Arts Collective went from panicking about keeping ALTR Gallery, to having one of the biggest artist sales events in the six-year history of SafeWord. Thank you!

I’m as surprised as anyone that I’m still around. Lot of luck and saying yes to some crazy ideas has helped.

Setting up files for screen printing; adding halftone "shading"; sorting the sizes out so these two are twins of each other.

Should be done by Art-A-Whirl or sooner, along with three other projects.

May I never again feel the urge to draw an opossum for as long as I remain living.

This describes every well-lit brewery in the twin cities (note: most breweries and distilleries are dark, but still…)

Can’t disclose how/why but, we have personal knowledge of this new CEO.

He is spoiled, selfish, entitled β€” etc. etc.

Any changes to Target to engage personal trust are probably related to some AI generated output of what the algorithm thinks compassion looks like, because he has no fucking clue.

Rehabilitation of Marimo - moss balls. Eventually, I’ll have to cull the darker bits and roll them into shape. I do this because I just don’t β€œallow” plants to die. It’d be cheaper if I did…
