Does anybody remember the term "peace punk?" I just realized I don't think I've heard it in more than 20 years. It's an aside I had when reading this: www.nytimes.com/2025/05/11/o...

Is it just me, or is there a resemblance?

I love this #DavidHumphrey drawing. "Niads, 2022, acrylic and marker on. paper, 11 x 14 inches.

I recommend the David Feldman show if you follow politics (don't tell him I sent you). Darkly funny, it's hard-hitting rather than light-hearted. Great show. I think he does it as penance: www.youtube.com/@DavidFeldman @themopup.bsky.social

As we pass through the looking glass of life as degraded reality tv, please enjoy this Charles Karubian oil painting: "Council to the King, 2024, oil on canvas, 24 x 20 inches. #charleskarubian #oiloncanvas

Excellent podcast that explores in depth some lesser publicized cabinet picks and what we might have in store for us with some little eddies of media theory -- riveting, give it a listen!

Elizabeth Tremante’s oil paintings show the personal trials and tribulations of ordinary women against a backdrop of Western Art History. The contrast is striking!
 Pictured here is her painting, “One Day After School,” 2023, oil on canvas, 23 x 27 inches. #ElizabethTremante #oiloncanvas

Here's an amazing and compelling interview of pre-roe v. wade abortion Dr. Warren Hern by Robert Sheer. Last thing he said floored me, "The American people voted for fascism; they voted for death; and they voted for extinction." www.kcrw.com/culture/show...
