It's a dark time for artists. Many are struggling!
It's easy to buy gifts online. When you buy from *artists*, you're supporting working people, instead of making rich jerks richer.
This fall, send your present $$ to an artist's shop!
Artists! Drop your shop links!

Head to a protest today. I can almost promise you will feel less hopeless. That's exactly what they don't want. There are more of us than there are of them.

I mean, I get what they’re trying to do (and I do so love the desperation of it) but I am endlessly entertained by the stupidity of eliding hating America with not wanting a king… um, so loving America means wanting a king??? Idiots 🤦
Mike Johnson on No Kings: "We refer to it by its more accurate description -- the Hate America Rally. You're gonna bring together the Marxists, the socialists, the antifa advocates, the anarchists, and the pro-Hamas wing of the far left Democrat Party. That is the modern Democratic Party."

The thing that happened that we all missed was some moment in time when “freedom of speech” changed from allowing hate speech to “freedom of speech” being code for hate speech
Mike Johnson: "The last time I checked, Americans have more freedom right now to express themselves and speak their minds after Republicans took over ... it is the Republicans who restored your right to share and speak your mind."

Exactly this. From politics to archaeology to movie reviews. Thoughtful curation feeds intellectual curiosity here.
Welcome new people. I was asked at dinner last night whether Bluesky was an echo chamber. I said it doesn’t matter, because what I want from social media isn’t to talk to young republicans taking a break from their group chat, but to read things I want to read but that I might have missed.
The thing I want most from social media is for people to share things that I might want to read or watch that otherwise I wouldn’t read or watch, whether news, commentary, books, movies, tv, games to play, whatever. Bluesky does this. /4

"In the images of the area, even the sunlight looks different and otherworldly. I couldn’t figure out why, until I realised it was because there were no structures to filter it. No shade, no shadows. A home returned to is just a plot on which to pitch another tent and wait for aid."

Surprisingly absolutely no one…
Body-camera video appears to contradict the government’s claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed.
