Week 5 of my 208 Week project is Chris Kluwe reminding us how to be peacefully civilly disobedient. See the whole project here: misty.granades.com/portfolio/20... #ArtYear #MakingThings #OnlyBeautifulThings #ArtShare

We’ve never been in the business of keeping promises to other countries unless it serves us immediately.

Five things I’ve done this past week: 1. Called/emailed MOCs every day 2. Wrote postcards to voters for the WI Supreme Court election 3. Finished “How we win” by George Lakey & “Maus/Maus2” by Art Spiegelman 4. Attended meetings for @alwca.bsky.social to support fellow artists 5. Practiced my art

I never get tired of one of my favorite authors defending me personally 😂

@pbsnews.bsky.social NEVER give these people a platform and allow them to put their monstrous ideas in front of more people. Ugh.

📣 📣 Call for Art 📣 📣 @wcadcorg invites artists to submit work for “Mother Nature”, our regional exhibition focused on celebrating nature and addressing climate change. Deadline:6.1.2025 The prospectus and submit: EntryThingy at www.entrythingy.com/d=wcadc.org?....

This week has been another long year for sure. But I’m still making as often as I can. I hope you’ve taken some time away from screens to make something too.

I wrote about The Gift Economy this week on my blog because giving gifts makes me feel good. misty.granades.com/2025/02/18/t...

I also have an emotional support Vincent VanGogh complete with ear bandage I made a few years ago. He presides over my studio to remind me to do my work.

Reposting for the evening crowd

I’ve been writing postcards with this org for close to 10 years and nothing makes me feel better than sending fellow voters in other states happy vote mail.

If you need a positive action item today, PostcardsToVoters.org is doing a big postcard push for the Wisconsin State Supreme Court election. Go sign up and write as few as 5 postcards to remind registered voters what’s at stake.

If you see this you gotta repost

Taylor Swift turned to 11.

I loved the book “The Serviceberry” by Robin Wall Kimmerer and feel like it’s a great countercultural narrative in these late-stage capitalist times. Read my thoughts in my blog post this week: misty.granades.com/2025/02/18/t...

My goodies arrived from @misty.granades.com I ADORE the stickers and especially love all the textures 💕 Check out her Etsy shop! www.etsy.com/shop/mgranad...

Yesterday I called Rep Dale Strong’s office & asked when his town hall was this week. I was told he didn’t have one scheduled & that “he was meeting with community stakeholders”. As if voting constituents aren’t.
