I really love that 😍
Also more folks should do art publicly. We need to start taking up more space. It's such fun to see people's process and I think it would help us be less precious about our art bc we're not trying to make every step either hidden or social media ready
I think you're nailing your goals then
I think the light hand you've used with your color work has heightened the soft playful whimsy of the piece. It invites you in softly and the details tell a cute story
Reminds me a little of some old French postcards my great aunt used to send me
This is so cute and expressive
It wasn't a mistake
It was a Hunger Games like tactic
They bombed it twice
Using the girls as bait so they could kill their grieving devastated parents as they pulled their daughters bodies from the wreckage
And you stood and clapped for him
Never going back
I don't give money to cowards and traitors
Right? Can we find him a copy of See Spot Not Do a War Crime? Or maybe If You Give a Nazi a Cookie? Or the classic A Very Hungry Proletariat (eat the rich)?
Are you taking suggestions bc this Daikon in my fridge has been talking shit
He can't even buy his favorite soldiers shoes that fit
Sun tzu might be too advanced
Ah yes the Dark Clerks
Very handy with a paperclip in a dark alley or so I've read...

With the greatest love and respect to Emily Dickinson
Hope isn't some fragile bird that comes to you in your darkest hour
Hope is like Christmas
It only seems ✨magical✨ when you don't know about your mom behind the scenes doing the work to make it happen
And now it's our turn to do the work
You still seem to be waiting for saving (re: they should be flying city to city)
Focus on what you can do
Maybe find an org to work with (like the working families party) and donate your time and labor in a way that works for your life
We will save us
But only through combined collective actions
First principles babee!
(You literally taught me that word)
Me logging off of social media

Me logging on to social media
Maybe instead of demanding transparency for the illegal war we could... And now stay with me here... Remove him from office?
Transparency doesn't solve a tyrant
Removal does
Golly gee wouldn't it be nice if we had a governing body with the authority to remove him...
And I don't give a rat's fart about what Marx said
Imo he was an accelerationist who glorified centralized production
He was also a virulent homophobe and I just don't think we should base our "better world" on the words of someone who if he existed today would probably be a 4chan theory bro
Hey I know it's not like super fun and chill of me
But if you talk about artists as petite bourgeoisie without making any distinction between the small biz solo artist and those with prime gallery space and millions of followers
I just don't think you understand shit about actual class dynamics
Every day he does an impeachable offense and y'all don't issue articles of impeachment is a day where you ALL decide that whatever he just did isn't an impeachable offense
Doesn't matter if the vote wouldn't carry
Submit articles of impeachment every time
You are beautiful! I love the way this soft lighting brings out all the delicate tones in your face especially with the bright shade of your lipstick contrasting with your dark hair and clothes. So pretty!
It's the best! Having someone you trust so well is soooooo incredible 🥰🥰🥰
My very cool and incredible wife @michaelann.bsky.social has a paper about weighing decisions and navigating visibility with algorithms like this that you should check out!

Is your friend drowning in some life event ? Don't ask what they want for dinner say "I'm getting dumplings" and they will too.
When my wife feels overwhelmed what I do is say "hey I'm gonna just start making some decisions and you can veto anything that doesn't feel good as many times as you like"
And then I demonstrate that I won't get mad when she vetoes something
It's fun and gets very silly and sweet very quickly

Oh dear lords of Kobol I would pay so much in micro transactions to never have to play as some generic-ass dude bro again
Also fat versions!
Let me be a big fat asshole dyke in a game and I will give you all the money
One of the more true things ever posted to this website, IMO
If you're requiring an abused minority group to always account for the feelings of their abusers when discussing how they've been harmed, that's being what we in the social sciences call "being a bigoted, abusive jackass"
I don't actually have to know shit about the situation to believe that the women with the lived experience of transmisogyny know how to identify it when they see it
Respect the epistemic authority of marginalized people
It ain't that challenging of a concept
Hey just an FYI if you're sharing a story in a comment section about a time when your behavior was wrongfully called transmisogynistic don't ever expect me to believe that the trans women calling your behavior transmisogynistic weren't 100% correct
I will side with trans women
Every
Single
Time
And in this conversation now you are also dismissing and deflecting rather than considering and look I get it I hate when Internet strangers call me out too
But calls to self reflect aren't a punishment
Good luck and I hope you do actually reflect if only to figure out how you were so misread
You literally brought it up and I didn't ask for explanations
I told you to take trans women seriously when they say your behavior was transmisogynistic and to spend some time reflecting why they might have said that
Bc you appear to be dismissing them by how you talked about the situation
