Four LAPD officers on horseback surround a man laying on the ground, trample him, and beat him with their polycarbonate "saber" batons.

How could it even be remotely possible to look at the fight for every right, every celebrated societal advancement, every historic moment of bravery and strength and not see that the police are invariably on the wrong side? Every single time things have got better, cops fought to make them worse.
I hope every swing and every shot fired haunts these weak coward-ass pigs for the rest of their lives.

Sadly, The Shrouds is not a good movie. But it did give me the gift of one of my new favorite lines of dialog: “Fuck you Maury! You’re a paranoid schizophrenic and you wrecked my cemetery!”

On this day in 1933, just 3 months after Hitler had taken power, the Institute of Sexology in Berlin was occupied by Nazi youth.
The Institute was a world leader in studying gender and sexuality and its founder, Magnus Hirschfeld, a leading advocate for gay, lesbian and trans rights.

Had the honor of giving this one to Michael yesterday. Tibetan text, from material to immaterial. Stoked to be back at Top Rank Tattoo today after a week away. Come through for your new tat today from 1-5 and I’ll tell you where I went.

Would love to tattoo this one. The larger the better, but at least 6” high. Perfect for a bicep, thigh or wherever you’ve got a nice big gap. 350-650 depending on size and placement. Drop me a line at [email protected] if she’s for you!

I don’t know who needs to hear this but I found out recently that there are lots and lots of archived episodes of Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell from the mid 90s free for the streaming on the internet archive. If casual reaponses to ludicrous statements is your kink

All of this on a weekday we’re in complete awe of you. You always rise to every call to action. You’re amazing, and words can’t express how much we love and appreciate you all.

Just for the sake of pointing out something good while seemingly everything is tailor made to fill us with abject terror and grief, I’m here to tell you that the new Demdike Stare album with Kristen Pilon is so good. It’s just so, so good. @boomkat.com back me up on this.

May Day Mayday protests are everywhere, during the day and after work alike. Get out and show em.

One of my favorite small panel paintings from the previous Chicago exhibition. This and a handful of others from that show are still available, as it turns out. Would love to re-home them, as I’m holed-up in the studio this month being my own exploited & unpaid intern working for exposure.

I’ve got almost no photos of the things I’m working on for my show, but here is an admittedly shoddy one! What do I want you to know?
- I’m having a good time making them.
- These are the largest paintings I’ve made.
- I hope you’ll see them in person.
- Fuck fascism.
That’s all for now! 🙋🏻‍♀️🖤

Looking forward to seeing everyone out there for tomorrow’s May Day protest!

We know the protests have been coming fast, but that’s because things in the U.S. are getting worse, and protests show the strength of our movement.

Been ignoring my phone while traveling this past week, but now I’m back. Only 1 1/2 months to finish up a new series of LARGE paintings to be shown at the fabulous Lula Cafe in Chicago. Excited for hardcore studio time and taking breaks to tattoo YOU. Here’s a barf bag drawing, meantime.
