We should make June 14th No Kings Day permanently.

Ok starting on these letter #linocut stamps- I wanted a #font that combined what I like about #Gothic styles with what I like about #artnouveau - since these are the 16 letters I need for "BLACK #CATS & PICKET LINES 🐈‍⬛😼 BAD LUCK TO CROSS" I think I'll call the font Blackets Pineduor #solidarity 🏴

Don't underestimate the value of sending care packages to comrades and friends in this time. People really appreciate being considered and thought about.

"Brother, this is what I recommend: to let the weight of compassion within you to tip to the point that you might feel within your heart God's own compassion for the world." —Isaac the Syrian

If there are local ways for people to plug into mutual aid and other organizing, it's always a good time to uplift those opportunities. Post about them. If you are running such projects, invite others to join in. Most will not but a handful will and that's great.

If it were malicious compliance then we could read it as a symbolic rehearsal for a military coup

NO KINGS Be safe, be smart, and give ‘em hell.

"Because we see our democracy's in real trouble. We see a president who has made himself a king and dictator." "We're disgusted and we're scared, and we know the only way to fight this now is for the people to come together." - @markruffalo.bsky.social on why he's at the #NoKings event in NYC

LAPD and LA Sheriffs tried to prevent two large protests from joining together in downtown and both departments ended up hitting EACH OTHER with impact munitions from across the same interesection.

No Kings includes Draft Kings

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

This time-lapse video of protesters marching down Broadway in Oakland for No Kings Day gives an idea of how many people turned out today @sfchronicle.com

I kinda think protests should now be record setting performance art like yeah let's send an SOS or make a rude shape for the drone cover photo

#NoKings ready thanks to a little help from pals in the Missoula community. #letterpress #poster #woodtype #art #printmaking

I love that Tonja Torgerson’s and I’s free prints from Body Politic are being used in this context! #risograph #letterpress #chromaticwoodtype #enough #protestart #handsoff #montana #protest

Classic

This is a very good strategy to keep in mind. Like if they're using less lethals... what would that be? Like a reverse kettle?

Ok now it's veering towards #anarchist #punk #linocut #procreate #sketch #wip 🖌️🎨✏️

I wish emails were required to have both "unsubscribe" and "unsubscribe with prejudice" options at the end

Printed #linocut on fabric- black tote add a test and then final print on a #thrifted olive button up short sleeved shirt Inspired by quote from @stryc9fuego.bsky.social 🙏 #art & #anarchy 🏴 #anarchycore

Finally hung it up! Love it enlightened Bob Ross No Gods No Masters #linocut print #art 🖌️🎨🏴 #anarchy #anarchycore

Ok now it's veering towards #anarchist #punk #linocut #procreate #sketch #wip 🖌️🎨✏️

talk about ppl & places where things are good & working like at least as often as we talk about where things are bad & broken. Ppl are doing good things that work! It's important to pair info about broken stuff w potential options for getting where we want to be, based on results so far 1/

#linocut mood

Ok so this one might be going in a different direction now...😅 Inspired by @timothysnyder.bsky.social quote 📚📘📖 #linocut #wip #procreate #sketch 🎨🖌️🖼️ #anarchy #anarchist #anarchycore 🏴

Digging exploring #anarchist history & theory rn... Ppl think of anarchists and authoritarians as enemies but I feel like there's actually a deep level of compassion there- no person should have so much control over the lives of others and also no one should have that kind of awful responsibility 1/
