I finally got a subscription for @trueref.bsky.social and dudes...The volume and range of quality pose photos you can download for a shockingly low price is incredible. A treasure trove of everything you could need. As a broke artist, this is a worthy investment and a generous resource to support.

The President using the military as his personal police force to intimidate American citizens is deeply un-American. This is the behavior of an autocrat. Full stop.

Congratulations to all the runners today at the Chicago Marathon!

I hope you’re taking a moment after crossing the finish line and enjoying all that the best big city in the nation has to offer.

THIS JUST IN...

The 1st Amendment protects everyone's speech, especially objectionable stuff. Personally, I think MAGA talking points are self-evidently nonsense starting with one small person's psychopathology.

But other people said the same about things that turned out to be true.

Free speech.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

Chicago journalist Debbie Brockman, who was thrown to the ground & handcuffed by ICE, has been released without charges

DHS said she assaulted an officer, but eye witnesses claim she didn’t

The lack of charges makes it clear that ICE is lying to try and cover up the fact that they attack the press

Government shut-downs look exactly like tantrums to Rest Of World.

The US rejected the notion of taxation without representation, yet Americans are still taxed during shut-downs.

Americans, if your reps won't go to work, then you don't go to work.

The shutdown will be over in a day.

It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zone— not the protesters.

And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!

No one thought he could win once
No one thought he could win twice
No one believed he’d get away with it
No one believed he’d be on the ballot
No one accepted the grim reality
No one accepted he’d destroy humanity
No one was prepared for this
No one is stopping it

WE are the last line of defense
