For all the USPS's faults, Americans have to realize: It's one of the best postal services in the world, even after being kneecapped by DeJoy. Fight for our postal service, guys. I know I will. It is an essential public good.

Nina Simone. Born this day in 1933. Ink, pencil and watercolour drawing from 2018.

Kamille Bidan taught me that if someone misgenders you, you should beat they ass in front of they squad, and then steal they Gundam too

any excuse to share one of the all time bangers from the hellsite

Two months ago, folk from the village began to suddenly go missing. While half-hearted search attempts were made, the other townsfolk quickly accepted their missing neighbors to be poor souls claimed by the forest for committing some unknowable slight. One night, the lost folk began to return.

"To cut off a history of a group - even if you are not part of that - is to cut off part of yourself. Because it cuts off your ability to understand humanity, to look at the entirety of humanity. To see the vibrancy and beauty of who we can become." @jessiegender.bsky.social

A James Bond TV show for a streaming service in 2025 is gonna be insufferable. Just 10 episodes of a guy that doesn't call himself either James Bond or 007 yet and then in the final episode, he orders a martini, shaken not stirred, and we all politely clap and Season 2 takes 5 years to come out

Queer Palestinian singer Bashar Murad for Vogue Japan. He wears an "Intifada Obi", which includes embroideries made by Gazan refugee women, supported by a collective that preserve Palestinian embroidery in kimono designs. My favorite songs from him are "Mashkara" and "Antenne". 📷: Hiroshi Asakura

Bringing this back because this has been my life for the last week:

1. "Intellectually and Morally indefensible," that is what a Judge called a Montana law defining sex and ending legal recognition of transgender people today. That law is now struck down as facially unconstitutional. The latest from writer S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

sorry, pronouns in bio triggered us so hard we had to become a fascist dictatorship over it

Incredible news! More hospitals have returned to offering gender affirming care after Trump's executive order was blocked. Moments after publishing our story on hospitals returning, Childrens National DC announced a return to care. And JUST now, Colorado Children's is back to giving care! AMAZING

“I couldn’t send my daughter to school. We couldn’t go to work. Now we feel we are trapped in our home. We have our documents, thank God, and thanks to the church that has helped us. But even with papers, we are afraid to step outside.”

I've done illustration/comics for their Hidden Voices project and I can confirm, they're great people doing great work out there

drawing gay sex during paid work hours is always morally correct

i am a mature and responsible individual who should be trusted with internet access

Yeah it’s funny how everything musk does has this same gap between promise and delivery

Painting based on a “face” I saw in the wood grain patterns of the floor in my room at the psychward. Acrylic on 16”x20” canvas. (2022)

Oh damn Prime actually published their failed chatgpt prompt in the description

The last day in US-Canada news: New York Times: "haha doesn't Trump know annexing Canada would mean Democrats would get more votes?" CBC: "how would Canada survive in a war of resistance against the Yanks?"

Feeling... rough. Lately.

Hundreds of asylum seekers from around the globe are being trapped by the US in a Panama hotel where they'll eventually be sent to a camp in the jungle. One Chinese man said “I thought: America is a free country with respect for human rights. I had no idea it was like a dictatorship.”

Yes, in a normal country with a normal media, this should be the framing. Not 'trans woman endangers everybody by existing'

i download every single chinese app i can and keep them updated so their government can properly steal my data to plan the United States downfall with ease

whoever said mizrak might have reminded alucard of trevor during this scene i'm shoving bees into your pillowcase right now. enjoy your bees

Even the most disturbing RFK Jr. headline always manages to have a detail inside creepier than you could have imagined. I’m sorry, did you just say Black kids should have a chance to get “re-parented”???? Gift link wapo.st/4hW2xGI

This is my “daughter of a Black Panther breakfast program volunteer” coming out but anyone who tells you that you have to be public about all your resistance activity should immediately be under suspicion for being an op, or being under the influence of an op

I cannot express how fucking livid I am at the fact the US and Russia don't think Ukraine or the EU should be part of the negotiations. Who gives a shit about any negotiation without us, who cares what the US says. We are not subjects to be dictated to. Europe has the money, the power, the will.

A proposal: Academic researchers and folks in similar positions, consider writing an op-Ed, or at least a letter to the editor, in your local paper about what these horrific decisions will do to jobs and services *in your local community*. I train scientists to write op-Ed’s and I can help.

I am not going to post the horrific details of the torture and murder of Sam Nordquist. I am going to call my New York State Senator (Peter Oberacker) and Assembly member (Chris Tague) and ask them what they intend to do to protect Trans people in New York.

There’s always one line that basically reveals their real goals in every one of these nonsense orders.

A new drawing, filling in narratives from The Lord of the Rings which I have yet to explore visually. Fans who only know the movies likely have not encountered this scene yet! 'Attack of the Wargs' 11" x 14" Watercolor pencil and Chalk on Toned Paper private collection

Mushroom wizard! 🍄🧙‍♂️

In my city there is one cybertruck and one DIY parody of a cybertruck and the parody truck has become a local celebrity. Meanwhile, I always wish I had some rotten eggs to throw at the tesla whenever I see it.

The Venneshamn orphans, winners of the 1925 Snowman Contest in Inderøy, Norway, pose for the newspaper. They called their creation Farfar (grandpa). The kids said they would "feed" it every day so it would last throughout the winter. Despite some decay, it outlasted every other competitor.

Also relevant: the New York Abortion Access Fund, which "supports New Yorkers and people traveling to New York State to access abortion care through financial assistance, case management, and connections to other resources." www.nyaaf.org

like not to be "what about me" about it but I have yet to see a single article mention that antipsychotics and mood stabilizers are ALSO life saving. everyone's scared FOR people with depression/ADHD, but when they do bother to acknowledge people with bipolar/schizophrenia, they're scared OF us

I think we could have a document that said 'We're going to kill all minorities' referring specifically to each group with a slur, signed and countersigned by Musk and Trump And the Democrats would issue a strongly worded memo and do jack fucking shit. And CNN would have Stephen Miller on.

Three of my pieces got into Infected by Art Volume 13, including my first drawing! "Undersea" is the first graphite drawing in my series about what it feels like to live with invisible illness 🖤 #art #drawing #pencil
