AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."

I don't like making resolutions bc I end up feeling guilty if I don't accomplish all of them. instead going to put it out into the universe that I hope I am less tired in 2026 and get more sleep. not likely with a new baby in May, but hey ! we can dream. also hoping to find a paid art job 😭

seriously! I'm in the process of deleting my already barely used twitter, and as I make sure I can follow people on other sm, it's so disheartening how many japanese artists are ONLY on twitter. most of them don't even have pixiv. so depressing.
Wishing every JP artist a very "join bsky so I can see your art again"
potential EME alert 🚨- apparently the Japanese are signing up to bluesky in droves. If you check the newskies feed 99% of posts are now Japanese
