Trans rights are human rights. Intersex people exist and deserve bodily autonomy. Systemic racism is real. The social model of disability is useful. Difference is not a reason to hate. Wealth and power are not signals of virtue, intelligence, or any other beneficial trait. Trump is a convicted felon

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.
With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.
You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

LOVECRAFT'S NIGHTMARE (1981) - Panels A + B
Acrylic on Masonite - 17" X 28"
Del Rey Books asked me to do 2 paintings of horrific images they could use on 7 volumes of H.P. LOVECRAFT stories. I didn't have to illustrate the stories, just create images that conveyed the mood. 1/3

I had all day to work on the web novel I'm hoping to publish in "Pure Fiction" on Medium.com. When did I start working on it? Not until after 10 p.m. The rest of me is ready for sleep, but my writer's brain just woke up.
