The NAACP is re-mixing 1930s-era "don't buy where you can't work" campaigns to confront the neo-segregationists targeting DEI. apnews.com/article/blac...

So that's what she's looking at. #cat #radiator #davidlynch

if journalism is supposed to be one of the institutions that safeguards a free society then journalists should be opponents of autocratic takeovers, brian.

This is a great piece about an uncomfortable truth: most Democratic leaders are too old, too calcified in their ways, and having circles run around them by a new and much younger generation of far right politicians and thought leaders.

A painting I did of a migrant worker. Taken from an old photograph from the free Library of Congress galleries. The photo was taken in Robstown, TX, in 1942 by Arthur Rothstein. The subject is unnamed. Casein on wood. #painting #traditionalpainting #art #migrantworker #caseinpainting

we might get a bonus march situation soon enough

McConnell could have led the only vote that mattered - the one to convict Trump in either impeachment trial. He bent the knee both times. His token opposition to Gabbard and RFK means nothing other than legacy cleanup.

Can people signal boost this!

Folks mad Kendrick didn't do some hollow performative stuff at the Super Bowl just shows how far we are from actually understanding what's happening in this country right now.

When you see a conservative influencer calling the Kendrick performance a DEI thing it’s worth keeping in mind just how many conservative influencers are failed screenwriters/stand ups/filmmakers who only understand any form of art through a lens of spite

Kendrick performing “Be Humble”. The visuals were incredible 👏🏾

KENDRICK JUST NOW

Kendrick’s American flag motif at THIS MOMENT is subversive. Yes, yes, yes.

FNx Memphis!

I can't believe four years of calling Trump "The Former Guy" didn't save us from this nightmare.

Social media, and Twitter especially, is full of Trump worshipers who would eat glass if Trump told them to. But that's not most people, probably not even most Republicans. When prices skyrocket for no reason other than Trump being a mad king, it will get ugly.

one thing to do this with a private company; attempting to do this with the federal government raises your risks from “lawsuits” to “internal rebellion”

In 2022 I was commissioned to paint this B&W photo of J.D. Salinger in watercolors. Even by this time I was struggling to keep up with commissions, but this seemed like a unique challenge so I did it. I was really happy with the results. #watercolor #jdsalinger #portraitpainting #art #realism

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

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 📉
