Two hurricanes and a federal grant that was canceled on short notice has left us with a shortfall for the year. We have a community member who is matching all donations up to $15K through Labor Day via a fundraiser. Learn about this and other ways to help here: secure.qgiv.com/event/nomad2...

There's so much to say. I'll write more later. Long story short, @nomadstudio.org had $50,000 in federal funds vaporize overnight when the National Endowment for the Arts cancelled millions in active grants in the middle of a grant cycle to align with new federal priorities. 🧵1/3

I created a new account because @moderation.bsky.app hasn’t addressed the erroneous label on my profile. I’m here now:

In these changing and uncertain times, it’s understandable if you feel a bit off balance. We want you to know that NOMADstudio is here for you, and that you are going to hear more from us this year.

Integrity and a moral center already a very hot commodity in this chapter of history.

Don't trade yours on any market.

The sparse news coverage that exists of the Billionaire's Coup is, frankly, incomprehensible to a lay audience. "Treasury payment system" is meaningless jargon to most people. Tell people in plain language "Here is what Trump and Musk are doing, and here is how it affects Americans."

@moderation.bsky.app why is my account marked with an impersonation label? What do I need to do to have that removed?

Loose plans turned into a picnic in the secret little woods—listening to the universe, marking the close of a year of learning, celebrating the day that a soul who left this place too soon began her journey here a few dozen years ago. Cycles. Patterns. Offerings. Lower case “a” art life.

My current read. Started it as research for a work project—my geeky brain is loving it but it’s also nourishing my soul. If you’ve read Emergent Strategy, this is such a great partner book to it. These two will speak to each other in your head.

Wait, do Trump allies not understand this is exactly why he was nominated? I mean, what good is a Trump nominee if they can’t be blackmailed? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes, libraries are invaluable for their collections and public services they offer, but also social contact without the expectation to interact with anyone or spend any money is so important to so many people

Last summer a friend invited me to an event hosted by Bayo Akomolafe that included a discussion with @resmaa.bsky.social. During a charged moment, Menakem said something like: everyone saying that they want liberation, but “you wouldn’t know what to do w/ it if you got it!” 1/12

By and large, the best thing you can do for any nonprofit in any field is to send them a check without any restrictions.

Do you trust the organization? Then let them allocate it. Don't make it hard.

If you don't trust an organization, then send it to another one you do.
Tis the season for helpful posts about what food shelves need so here's my advice:

If your kid's school is doing a Canned Food Drive or a movie theater is doing a special movie screening with a can of food in lieu of admission: give a can.

Otherwise: JUST GIVE MONEY.
