#oilpastel #thelovewitch this 2018 movie was so striking. It felt like watching a film from the 1960s or 70s from the length of shots to the acting style and colors! When I was in the mood for a Valentine’s themed painting, I immediately thought of the live witch #witchy

If you're a soldier in the 11th Airborne Division being ordered to prep for deployment to Minnesota or Greenland, remember that you have the right to apply for conscientious objector status.

It's worth your time to call Hilton to cancel your account with them. 1-800-446-6677. Here's why:

They asked me if it was because of the ICE thing. I said it was. Then they suggested I wait a couple days to see if they were going to change course.

The pressure is getting to them. Let's keep it up.

After taking over housing and healthcare, private equity is now buying up software used by volunteer fire departments — making it even harder for rural communities to respond to emergencies.

The only winners from private equity's price-gouging spree are wealthy investors.

Whelp, if it was censored in the BBC program, let’s just share it far and wide here.
I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Dear @twistedspinebooks.bsky.social , is there anything we can do to help you recover from flooding damages? I tried to visit yesterday and saw you were closed for renovations due to flooding. How can your readers help? Thanks a bunch!

This Day in Labor History: November 8, 1970. Congress approved the Reorganization Acts Amendment that laid the groundwork for the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency. Let's talk about how the EPA is a pro-worker agency, counter to those who want to divide labor and environmentalists!

“Authoritarians always target art first. They do so, because art and history are enemies of the myths a regime needs to survive." From my new TIME piece on Donald Trump’s campaign to defund the arts and rewrite our history. The stakes could not be higher.
Trump’s Campaign to Defund the Arts—and Rewrite History
"The campaign to defund the arts, capture our museums, and rewrite our history is a prelude to silencing dissent."
