It would be weird to have a surgery named after you.

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words.

The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

Hey remember this project? I need YOUR HELP to launch it again this winter!

I ordered 11 lbs of seed that we need to package up into little wax paper envelopes so we can distribute them throughout the city in late winter/early spring.

We're gathering November 19th!

Made this for October 18. I’m sick of these a-holes.

A poster for No Kings March on October 18. It features a yellow background with a black cat head. At the top of the page it says “no kings” in puffy black hand-written type. Between the cat’s ear is a small black crown with an X on it. There are black stars flowers and shapes around the head. The cat has stripes in lots of different colors. Its fangs are out. Below the head it says October 18th and below that it says nokings.org, all in puffy black hand-written type. Next to that type it says “power is ours. Time to use it” also in puffy black hand-written type. Art is ©️Martha Rich

Mundane moment. Don’t make the NYT black sesame Rice Krispie treats when you live alone.

One very wealthy white man got his job back today (along with his 200 staff and production team) because of organizing, boycotts, and collective pushback.

When will we see that same energy for the 320k+ Black women who were pushed out of the labor market?

Made this the other day. It ain’t over til it’s over. We keep pushing back until the wack job weirdo magas are all gone. Those losers want us to feel like they are all powerful so we give up. Don’t believe it. It definitely sucks but it ain’t over.

A piece of art with a painted background and salmon colored puffy letters that fill the page that say “Ain’t over til it’s over.” The letters are hand cut paper made by Martha Rich.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD JUST LET US HAVE A FEW MOMENTS OF HOPE

Do y’all not understand how hope is active? How it is motivating? How it drives people to fight?

If you try to stamp out every last ray of hope and every good moment and every tiny bit of happiness you have truly doomed us all.

David Slack @slack2thefuture.bsky.social · 18d

There’s a certain type of poster that seems to think it’s helpful to stamp out anything hopeful in the name of being realistic about how bad things are.

Don’t be that poster.

We know how bad things are. But for most of us, hope helps a lot more than your cynicism.

Rebellions are built on hope…
