The shelter I volunteer with has a unique adoption situation right now and I'd be so grateful if people could share to anyone they know in Vermont who might be a good fit. This is Devon, and his story is a little complicated so please click this link to find out more! www.hsccvt.org/Cats#sl_embe...

NEW — Rev. Jesse Jackson, who died peacefully Tuesday morning at 84 years old, was one of the most influential Black political figures since Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

His historic presidential runs in the 1980s inspired a new generation of leaders.

Rev. Jesse Jackson left a lasting impact on civil rights and political possibilities for Black America • The TRiiBE
"Our father was a servant leader — not only to our family, but to the oppressed, the voiceless, and the overlooked around the world,” Jackson’s family said.

Remember: If you're making homophobic jokes about Lindsey Graham (or Trump, or Bill Clinton, or Putin) then you're not "sticking it to the man," you're just being a homophobic asshole. None of those people are active on here. They will literally never see your posts. But gay people will.

I was cleaning through some old files and I came across this. Someone on the hellsite came up with the idea of artist0s drawing themselves in the style of artists that they admire.
Maybe we could start it again on here.
Four images of myself drawn in the styles of other artists. Mike Mignola, Arthur Adams, Jim Lee and Jaime Hernandez.

Brendan Reilly is basically Paul Vallas if Paul Vallas sometimes got punched in the face and tossed out of bars.
slkollmann.bsky.social Stephanie Kollmann @slkollmann.bsky.social · Oct 5
NOTE: Brendan Reilly is running for Cook County Board President, meaning that he wants a lot of authority over the budget for the sheriff and the jail and the state's attorney and the public defender

But he won't even sign a statement in support of due process when his own colleague was attacked.

Post from Julia Ioffe sharing her latest article in Puck News: On Saturday, Sen. Lindsey Graham unloaded on the PMs of Greenland and Denmark, telling them that if Trump wanted to take Greenland, they'd just have to deal with it. “Lots of F-bombs,” said one person in attendance. My latest. Then a post from Scott Horton sharing the article but also using Ioffe's post text

I don't know if it's the usual anxiety or some sort of reaction to this false spring, but I simply have not slept for about 72 hours, and only had a couple hours before that. I'm going to try to avoid posting too much, because I'm clearly not in my right mind.

Digital illustration done in a rough ink style and shades of red. It’s Tim Curry as the big devil man from Legend. He’s all red wearing raggy black garment that still shows off all of his chest. He has a pair of absolutely massive bull-like horns on his head which is thrown back laughing and fists on hips, simply delighted as he contemplates the red lettering next to him which reads ‘Maine it will happen today’.

WATCHTOWER (1999)

Acrylic on Panel - 28" x 22"



While the figure in the tower was watching her TV, the tide came in and then receded, taking her boat and ruining her ladder in the process. 1/2

#art
A tree house sits on tall wooden pilings above a smooth sandy beach. High up, a woman rests her arms over the window sill as she looks out. The window is set in the roof with a haphazardly constructed, asymmetrical overhang. The roof is shingled on one side of the window while the boards beneath are weathered and exposed on the other. The siding of the structure resembles an old water tower, with long vertical boards restrained with thin metal bands long since rusted. The sky is a wash of yellow and gray. The light has a dusky quality as clouds obscure a sun that sits low in the sky. A path of pebbles meanders river-like from the foreground in a loose zigzag until it reaches a puddle of water at the base of the watchtower. The ruined remains of a ladder stick out of the sand near the pilings.
