NOTHING will change until human beings STOP pretending and digesting that ANY of this is somehow acceptable or a "norm" and cease the toxic act of dressing it up with sequins and poppers to grow a crew that thinks shit will just fix itself if we wait it out.

ENOUGH.

It's killing us all.

It's beyond difficult to even experience a "usual" or "laid back" day anymore. I'm packing all my free time outside of my jobs, in helping a few folks who are struggling with food on their table, covering canvases with abstracts, reducing my device time & making sure I am safe in my surroundings.

As we continue to stress out, confront intense anger that some of us have never felt before, burning hatred that some of us despise and advocate to end, there's no denying that it's real and is affecting us all. My hope is always that we find our own way to hold it together & remain our true selves.

2025 and there are still heartless, vile, cruel & putrid minds still entertaining the thought that "conversion therapy" is humane or effective. FU and your justification and hate that hides behind a church or religion.

Supreme Court skeptical of state bans on conversion therapy aimed at LGBTQ kids

The court heard arguments in a case brought by Kaley Chiles, a Christian talk therapist in Colorado, who argues that the state's ban violates her First Amendment rights.

Grand Central Is Hosting The Largest Public Artwork NYC Has Seen In Two Decades — And The ‘Humans Of New York’ Creator Is Behind It

'Dear New York,' the brainchild of Brandon Stanton, is a love letter to the place we call home and a record-breaker all in one.

Have a great Wednesday.

A dozen mixed donuts in box from Dunkin' Donuts minus 1 (I already ate one before pic) and 3 large bags of fresh ground Dunkin' Donuts coffee.

For those still entertaining "prime day," how about skipping on the shit you don't really need and buy lunch for someone who is hungry or hand a few dollars to the homeless person that people step over everyday on the sidewalk or entryway.

Think about it & have a pleasant Tuesday.

"Only half the country votes during a presidential election, much less state, local and other federal elections. So I think the puzzlement by the media and the attempts to try to jam these shooters into an ideological box was not just misguided, it doesn’t describe what most of the country is like."

Last week I talked to @kenklippenstein.bsky.social, who is very good at this reporting thing, about the recent political assassinations and how the Trump White House is weaponizing them. www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/m...

The meme-ification of political violence

It's less ideology than the internet — what the media and Trump don't understand about the current wave of shootings.

People who are in this country illegally, DO NOT receive or are even eligible for SNAP or Medicaid benefits. This is the same in EVERY state.

STOP believing this ridiculous wad of LIES with extra bullshit they are pandering to you.

I'm beyond sick of gullible folks entertaining this.

Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement?

The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy.

At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.

Received my NYS inflation refund check today and I'm grateful to Gov Hochul for keeping her word and making it happen for so many of us hard working New Yorkers to be able to have a few extra bucks back. Promises made, kept and words put to action.

A venomous snake and a liar. DON'T fall for this or give in to this craft and hook.
Period. Dems should NEVER negotiate with home grown terrorists and blobs that are so full of shit, their roots show it.

Johnson gives ‘assurance’ to top Senate Dem he'll move government funding bills

But the speaker says Democrats must first vote to end the shutdown.

that kept us safe while risking their own lives to do so, even when many of us were suffering with COVID ourselves. Gratitude and solidarity from the heart doesn't just go away. Don't tell me we're weak people.

One of the most beautiful things during the COVID lockdowns, besides home cooking meals & feeding others and collecting supplies to distribute, was opening my windows around 7 pm every evening & joining in the applause of all 5 boroughs in NYC to thank our first responders & essential workers

Kamala Harris & Tim Walz won the 2024 election in a landslide. Musk was paid to make sure that didn't happen. If you believe, to this day, that the fascist cheeto actually legit won...when will you wake up?

FUCK TRUMP & ALL HIS FLOCK.

Have the best Monday possible.
Be kind to others.
