My comrade and friend Ola is showing that it is in fact possible to create liberatory spaces in NYC [even though it's difficult]. The Free Black Women's Library is a treasure. www.scrippsnews.com/us-news/educ...

Here's a pretty flower I saw in Vancouver earlier this month.

Really sad to see how the University of Arizona is treating Indigenous staff & students. UA have been leaders in Indigenous scholarship, but each iteration of new presidents and their staff who come in, not from the region, seem to not understand what a powerful asset these communities are.

Happy Pride! Audre Lorde was a self-professed “Black, lesbian, feminist, socialist, mother, warrior, poet” who challenged racial and civil injustices with her writings and voice. Read more about her remarkable life and works here: www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/audre-... #AltPrideCitizen

If I had Reuben Gallego’s number I’d end up getting blocked because I would just be texting him snippets from this “Anti-trans messages are particularly effective at social sites that have been destabilized, deregulated, and defunded through decades of neoliberal policies.”

Happy pride to me and to you and to the bisexual bats and the gay giraffes and the lesbian albatrosses, and the trans fish and everybody else. Happy pride.

16 episodes of the x files later and it's finally done! i haven't done many pieces this large but it was really fun to work on (even though it was quite tedious at times). #sciart #fish

sad that no one has ever looked as cool as Oscar in the 1980 Sesame Street Dictionary illustration for the words "trash" and "travel."

Okay, internet! Who wants to see what’s blooming at DESERTHAUS?! Too bad! Showing you anyway! This is an evening primrose, probably either O. caespitosa or O. albicaulus. Very low to the ground, looks like a little flat rosette of weeds, and then boom! Delicate little flower!

In 2000, John Waters donated 372 pieces of his art collection to the Baltimore Museum of Art. They named a rotunda after him in their gallery. He requested an all-gender restroom be named for him instead. #BOTD
