I'm still getting vgen stuff set up but while I work that out I'm going to try managing this the way I have in the past but with a better, simplified price page and reduced prices.
I have 4 slots remaining for anyone who wants them. If this goes well more may open in the future.

Sarah is one of the more multi-skilled folks I know and definitely someone you should be supporting all year but especially throw a sister a bone in BHM. Come on!
I learned this morning that I'm furloughed again due to the partial government shutdown which means my check tomorrow might be my last one for a while. 🙃
So, with that in mind......

I have so much I could say on this and there's a lot of people I know who would not be happy about it.
Media coverage of Gaza has plummeted. So today on @thenation.com, we're doing something pretty special: we're only running pieces by people in and from Gaza.
We're calling it "A Day for Gaza." You can find links to all of the incredible pieces here. Please read! www.thenation.com/article/worl...

A Day for Gaza
Today, The Nation is turning over its website exclusively to stories from Gaza and its people. This is why.

I went back and forth about whether to post this or not but I don't know, maybe it helps someone else. One of my friends suggested some of these feelings of inadequacy come from fixating too much on what makes it socials.
But this question of "should I be doing more" keeps nagging me.

This is why I couldn't run for anything in Missouri. I hate it here.
this is a very cool thing to do and also highlights one of the biggest keys to Zohran's appeal: he just thinks New York City is really neat
people who live somewhere want to vote for someone who likes it there and wants to make it better, not someone who wants to use it as a springboard

Man, today has been real productive. I got up, read the news, cleaned my bathroom, did dishes, went grocery shopping and am currently folding and putting away laundry... and I still feel like I haven't done enough with my day (I do still have some art to finish).
That feeling is bullshit! lol.

Completely lost on the 77M Americans who voted for this nightmare is that Habeas Corpus is a critical underpinning of our legal system.
We don't exist as a free society without the right to challenge unlawful imprisonment. It's crazy that 41% of Americans approve of this unlawful presidency.

Beyond your 6th Amendment right to an attorney, this seems like a violation of Article 1 protected Habeas Corpus rights. How can you file a Habeas petition if you’re held incommunicado?
Lawyers can't reach clients in ICE detention. I've heard it anecdotally, but scale of issue is horrifying.

This is unequivocally good. It should've never happened in the first place and we shouldn't stop until these concentration camps are demolished and all their people freed.
Everyone has to understand the republicans are utter ghouls and must be electorally punished for this.

It's funny to think about how growing up my mom had so many of these on her bookshelf. I didn't realize it at the time but these covers, even before I read the books would set the groundwork for me becoming an illustrator.

Hello!! To kick off the Lorwyn release, I'll be doing a blind auction for this process sketch for Dawnhand Eulogist. This is a sketch I did for the final painting to scan and paint over, touched up to make it look nice : ) It is graphite on masonite board.

A good thread and it ties to a thing Syn and I talked about recently that I'm still noodling on.
There's a phrase that "laws are threats" that I think got popular in a lot of nerd spaces thanks to Brennan Lee Mulligan and I think, idea wise comes from Foucalt.
But I don't think they have to be.

I want to take a moment to talk us through this thought and the term "politics" for a moment.
First let me say, this comment is part of a larger thread discussion. This comment is fine. This person is okay. Nothing bad there.
HOWEVER, "I don't consider [thing] political..." needs clarification. /1

And I will absolutely defend anyone's right to be in my space as long as they aren't being bigoted towards others. I don't consider that political. Just basic human decency.

This compliment was incredibly kind and since I'm in a bad mood today I definitely needed it to put a smile on my face.
With that said, I do want to talk a bit about this because the two anthropology classes did *so* much for the worldbuilding of #Ha-Nahn.

Every Dem voted to strip that money. It was never going to pass in this Senate but at least they shot the shot.
👀 Every Senate Democrat + Collins and Murkowski just voted for the Bernie Sanders amendment to repeal the $75 billion in additional ICE funding under Trump’s “big beautiful bill.” The measure failed 49-51.

Here's an opportunity to support the other journalist arrested today; Georgia Fort, who will have far fewer resources available to her than Don Lemon.
Georgia Fort's is chilling, and it's being overshadowed by the equally chilling arrest of Don Lemon.
A GoFundMe is being set up for Fort. In the meantime, you can support her work directly – without paying massive fundraising platform fees – through her website:
