I try to mostly ignore the numbers because they're at such a contrast to the actual human support I get, through commissions, art sales, nice comments and so on. You all rock for that. 💚

Still though, getting such constant shitty reach does get to me!

social media sucks and most sites suppress our art! But if you're regularly getting hundreds to thousands of likes, it's a little grating to watch you complain

kinda hate it when artists that regularly get thousands of likes complain a lot about their reach. Get on my low level

In my experience the turning point for a critical mass of liberal activists and apparatchiki was the Sheikh Jarrah protests and the Unity Intifada of 2021. In the eventually made periodizations of this era, I think we will recognize the starting point to have been around then, and not Sept-Oct 2023.

This happened to me in 2014. And there’s no bad time to realize it, the important thing is that everyone does

At some point in the last 2.5 years I went to bed thinking of Israel as a flawed but recoverable democracy that could work out its issues eventually post-Netanyahu and woke up holding it in the same disdain as Milošević’s Yugoslavia and the Confederate States

unfortunately, "awakenings" don't really seem to be a thing the Democratic party has or is ever willing to have

simple 2-bit pixel art, scene on middle ninth of a larger open canvas, dark brown and tan color. Two skeletons encountering each other and pointing at one another with a similar pose, one leg forward, exclamation points over their heads. A simple foreground line and the faint silhouette of city buildings in the background

looks like it is, just some ridiculous details like Trump has to announce it on his stupid Truth Social site first. Clown country.

But what matters is the ceasefire
