If you breathe in for 4 seconds, hold for 7, and exhale for 8, it tells your body you’re safe. This slows your heart rate, relaxes your nervous system, and helps shift you out of fight-or-flight mode. Now do it.

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

"the kerosene sisters" I wish I could remember where this paper came from. I think it was originally gift wrap. #linocut #linoprint

There's a riot goin' on.

My weapon is art.

We all read it, now we live it.

Normalize pronouncing DOGE as DOUCHE.

Noods.

All music is protest music if you listen to it while protesting.

"If there is hope, wrote Winston, it lies in the proles."

The bravest fucking thing we can do in life is hold on to hope.

Excited to print some postcards with this freshly-carved block.

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

"This is just a punk rock song, written for the people who can see something's wrong."

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

No foreign power has ever posed as massive and immediate a threat to the United States as the current administration.

Next time you have a job interview, do one of the following and see how it goes: 1. Display an emphatic "Roman salute." 2. Promise them that you will stop your binge drinking if they give you the job.

Nor am I!

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

Fold cranes. Fight fascists.

When your country is starting to feel like a Hieronymus Bosch painting.

Recent #linoprint based on a painting by El Greco. Printed as a thank you for the students in a recent #printmaking workshop.

Fresh #linoprint coming off the new press. #printmakingasresistance #thanksforthesoup

Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer is on tonight. The classic tale of when people treat you like shit until they find out you can do something for them. 🦌🦌🦌

Late yesterday afternoon, I powernapped in a recliner with a GBBO rerun playing in the background, then rebounded by watching back-to-back documentaries about yacht rock and the Bee Gees.

First prints coming off the press. #linocut #linoprint #printmaking #printmakingasresistance #thanksforthesoup

Finished carving my next print. #linocut #linoprint #thanksforthesoup

My health insurance covers the cost of an annual physical exam with my pcp, yet I get billed a co-pay for the labs. Labwork for a routine physical should be covered as part of an annual exam. It incentivizes people to see their doctors. It catches illnesses earlier, making them easier to treat. 1/2
