I’m facing back to front
Over my shoulder at the sun
And it’s an open door
End of my line of sight once more

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

The images and stories coming out of Minneapolis are extraordinary. We can't say we did not know what was happening. Lots of people are putting their bodies on the line to make sure we do.

People need to take into their head that computing as we understand It is going to go away in the very near future because the goal for most of the AI crowd is to make it so you cannot own your own computing power. You have to use their clouds. Making the creation of a peoples Internet a necessity
It's not too late for us to build a parallel internet that doesn't spy on us

I shouldn't be forced to work 40 hours a week on shit I don't wanna do. Instead, I should be voluntarily working 70 hours a week on shit I do wanna do

Your howls worked!📣 The House and Senate passed the FY26 Interior Appropriations bill with NO anti-wolf rider, ensuring funding for the Interior Department through the end of Sep. '26.

Thank you for always standing and fighting for wolves protections. Lets keep the momentum going.💪🐾

Reminder: LEGALLY, paypal does not need to know what you sell. Paypal has nothing to do with your business or its transactions. Its only purpose is money transferal.
However they will try to snoop into your business as much as they can.

DO NOT DISCLOSE ANY DETAILS OF YOUR WORK ON PAYPAL!!
Commissioners and artists, be aware of this if you use the PayPal

I stopped using sticker mule absolute ages ago because of the owner’s bullshit. The owner is still on his bullshit, so if you use sticker mule, maybe don’t. StickerAPP is a good alternative, and also there’s most likely a local sticker printer near you (Sticker Ninja in Portland, for example).
The latest move by Sticker Mule's owner. Please don't give these people your money (or honestly send them your artwork, you never know).

Nothing happened! I’m fine!

Just felt like sharing a reminder that HR is NEVER your friend. They’re there to protect the company FROM you. Basically, treat them like the cops, and don’t threaten to sue—just sue.

Uh… AHRAB?

I have no idea whether anyone will ever read my work, but experiences like that have helped make it feel so rewarding to write.
One of the characters in my novel is a cheetah named Nicolau Oliveira Rocha. He's from Brazil.

He loves coffee, so yesterday I tried a Brazilian coffee shop. Black coffee, just sweetened with condensed milk.

I don't even like black coffee, but omg. What the hell have we been drinking in the US?!

Stay aware, alert, and prepared.

Iceout.org is an informative site where you can see real time witness reports of ICE and their locations: observed, active, and critical.

It is more important than ever to share these resources. Do not ignore what is happening.

Also I got thoroughly winded by 65 lb goblet squats today, a weight I was absolutely trouncing some months back. Starting over for sure. But hey, at least I went. Maybe I can do it again.
Back to gym today. Shoulder still not great, but if I keep my grip narrow and my elbows in, I can bench the naked bar and not feel like I completely unhealed it.

Look, all I'm saying is if you start leaving Twitter now, then when your Twitter account gets suspended for no reason, "But my followers" won't be an issue. You'll already have built at least a good chunk of your audience up elsewhere.

..,in 1941 Dr Seuss could see "America First" was a slogan for Nazis: and an attempt to other and denigrate other countries.
It was Nazi then and remains so today
