Look at how many pulled a shit fit over the concept of masking required at meetings and actions. “It’s only at-risk people who need to worry, and they shouldn’t be doing things like this!”
Things like sitting in a room taking signups for volunteer shifts? Really?

This is pretty much as simple as putting alt text on an image can get. You copy. You paste. You take out the occasional weird hiccup.

Art and writing is a form of protest. It is a form of empowerment. It is part of being human.
That is why you write when the world is on fire.

But the bigger reason that you should write and make art, is that your work is someone else's respite.
You don't know who they are. They may be someone in the future. But if you have escaped into a book, or a painting, or a TV show... Someone created that.
You can do that for someone else.

I wrote about this for Indigenous People's Day because since day 1 of Trump 2.0, we've been dragged into conversations regarding the validity of our US citizenship and sovereignty as means of Trump being able to challege birthright citizenship.

Native Survival Depends on Protecting Both Tribal and US Citizenship Rights
Trump’s attacks on Native sovereignty and citizenship are a deliberate effort to undermine the rights of tribal nations.
