Walt Kelly, creator of the comic Pogo, famously noted that "We have met the enemy, and it is us." The administration we legally elected is doing more damage to our country that any foreign power would dare to undertake. #politicalcartoon #policitalart #constitution #politics

I asked @rubenbolling.bsky.social to illustrate an idea I'd had so I could print up some t-shirts to give donors at a trans rights event. He agreed and liked the result enough to run it as a "Tom the Dancing Bug." We raised $ for @hrw.org and @nclrights.bsky.social. Thx Ruben. You nailed it.

Said goodbye to one of my favorite paintings yesterday, but it went to a good home where they really related to the theme of “Do not go gentle.”

Trying to come up with a protest sign. I dunno. Too oblique? Too inflammatory? #nokings #GOT #nokingsprotest #protestsign #nokingsprotestsign

Extremely helpful visualization of the impact of government cuts across the USA in a clickable map format. When people ask "Why should I care about government cuts?" send them here: theimpactproject.org/the-impact-m... #DOGE #politics #infographic #government #protest

Just when you thought #MarkZuckerberg couldn't be any more of a spineless weasel and Trump sycophant, he lowers the bar. How greedy do you have to be to cut housing funding because it MIGHT piss off Donald Trump and decrease your wealth by a billion or two? www.mercurynews.com/2025/05/01/m...
Mark Zuckerberg’s philanthropy quietly cuts funding for affordable housing, homelessness groups
Many Bay Area housing orgs were caught up in the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative’s push to end ‘social advocacy’ grants in the wake of DEI scrutiny.

A lot of attention has been rightly paid to #AbregoGarcia and his incarceration in #CECOT, the #ElSalvador #prison. However, #AndryJoséHernándezRomero, a gay makeup artist, was arrested and deported because of his crown #tattoo, which is a common part of #threekingsday celebrations in #venezuela.

#SarahWynn-Williams wrote #CarelessPeople , an insider's account of #Facebook and #Meta is taking legal action. When I wrote about Google, their legal department challenged my right to do so. I encourage you to buy Sarah's book to show support for insider views that reveal what's really going on.

Is anyone tracking the ways the Trump administration demonstrates its corruption?
