A downy woodpecker sits on a spruce on a sunny winter day. "Ahh... Febuary" it says. Close up on it correcting "Febrary" then "Febberary..." then finally "Frebrury"

36 people have died at ICE's hands in the past year
may of these deaths did not happen on camera, but it does not make them any less horrifying and unacceptable
this is a list of their names, where they lived before being abducted, and a link to crowdfunding if i can find it
The image is digital art made up to look like a two color linocut print. It features a geometric twisting snarling tiger. It's flanked by the text "Stay Angry" and "Bite Back" that follows the contours of the tiger.
Life advice for the ages. Those doing wrong want you tired and hopeless. But stay angry. And when a chance is in front of you: bite back.
Digital plans for a real linocut. I'm anxiously awaiting a press to make this stuff possible with my RSI in my hands.

They speak of justice while ruling through fear. They speak of sovereignty while stealing the vote. They speak of dignity while condemning their own people. I learned that those who insist the most on calling themselves "the good ones" are often the ones most afraid to face themselves. The Maduro regime wraps itself in flags, in anti-imperialist rhetoric, in a false epic where any criticism is labeled as betrayal. They claim to defend Venezuela, yet they stole the people's voice when they refused to respect the elections. That act alone strips away any moral authority. But do not be mistaken. The fact that a tyrant is real does not automatically turn an external aggressor into a savior. The United States does not act out of love for democracy. It acts out of interest. It always has. The language changes, the enemy changes, but the method remains the same: pressure, punishment, displays of power. And as always, the blow is not absorbed by those in power, but by ordinary people.
The Venezuelan people are trapped between two narratives that do not represent them. One that oppresses them from within, and another that exploits them from outside. One that claims legitimacy without real elections. Another that claims justice without taking responsibility for the human consequences of its actions. I do not defend Maduro. I point at him. But I also refuse to accept that a global power can appoint itself as a moral judge while its history is written in interventions, sanctions, and broken countries. Pain does not need propaganda. Hunger does not understand geopolitics. Dignity is not imposed with missiles, nor with dictatorships. While some sell themselves as the good ones to justify repression, and others sell themselves as the good ones to justify aggression, the result is always the same: more suffering, more rage, more generations learning that force replaces justice. And once again, pain is inherited.
Another post from a Venezuelan friend:
“Be kind, be involved, believe in your art,” he said. “At a time when people tell you art is not important, that is always the prelude to fascism. When they tell you it doesn’t matter, when they tell you a fucking app can do art you say, if it’s that important, why the fuck do they want it so bad? The answer is because they think they can debase everything that makes us a little better, a little more human. And that, in my book, and in my life, includes monsters.”
Love this from Guillermo del Toro

This is the funniest thing I've read this year
Tumblr post by and-fishing-equipment reading "in 2026 DO NOT ask yourself whether your art is GOOD instead ask: - Is it SINCERE - is it CATHARTIC - was it FUN TO MAKE - is it MADE BY ME and don't forget to stay silly"
Picture of a Christmas in the dark with fairy lights on
Here you go! the lights are so bright it seems like the room is still lit
solidarity with trans people and death to fascism
It's not exactly a Christmas tree bc I don't really celebrate Christmas... so let's say it's a winter solstice, LGBTQIA+ rights and dinosaurs tree 💁
A photo of my christmas tree. It’s standing in a corner of my living room, and it has different ornaments and two sets of fairy lights. One of them is made of dinosaurs figures. On top of the tree the LGBTQIA+ flag has been hanged
Rate my Christmas tree

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone
- tech is now more expensive
- you cannot trust most media of reality anymore
- programs barely function
- energy prices
- literal psychosis
- your voice can be literally stolen for evil
- more spyware
but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

Cartoon character with text bubbles that talk about why making art matters in these challenging times
This cartoon by artist Frank Ape grounded me today #artmatters
a medieval style digital drawing of an androgynous brown-skinned knight on horseback on a hill, stabbing a long gold spear into a blue dragon on the ground. the knight has a gold halo behind their head and wears a suit of silver armor with a nonbinary flag striped tunic and a trans flag as a cape. their horse is white, with blue tack with trans pride trim. there is black gothic text at the top and bottom of the image reading “A world without trans people has never existed and never will.” there’s an ornate pale blue border around the image, filled with pink and blue scrollwork, gold hearts filled with colorful flowers, a smiley bat, two smiley moles, and two smiling frogs holding up trans flags.
a world without trans people has never existed and never will
The neurodivergent issue of believing people will understand if you explain it
Yes, and, because I am a resentful creature, I would also like to add:
'You're not a bad artist. You're just on social media.'
