Partially carved linocut block dyed red with a Pfiel tool and a hand visible with aqua blue nails. Block is lined out with images of rats doing costume drama stuff in a cutaway dollhouse style castle. Carved rat is hanging by his tail sipping tea while peeping on another rat reading a Handmaiden's spicy private journal.

Linocut of a deer skull entity in a hooded robe summoning apples and leaves in a clearly flanked by two hooded figures. One has a skull and a fox. The other has a sword and a shield. They are under a full moon and surrounded by candles.

It's literally because he wants Penn Station named after him and to get him to fuck off Hochul was like "lol well uh never say never bro."

People act like these other subway systems with like five lines that shut down overnight are superior. Start running a sprawling 24 hour system before talking tough. 😤

Okay. Well, if Trump is going to attempt legal end-arounds like federalizing the NG of GOP states to send them to Dem states over the objections of governors and courts, I think the Democrats should just keep the federal government shut down indefinitely.
