lifted from tumblr and posting here because holy shit this drives me insane
Tumblr post by user calebwittebane: its actually crazy how much local art events and other potentially interesting stuff i completely miss out on just because the orgs all post on instagram and facebook only. two standouts among the worst fucking platforms in the world with the most egregious ui and slop saturation, so dogshit that id be unable to use them regularly even if i wanted to. stop it you all. get on tumblr or something even orgs and collectives that used to have proper websites of their own now just put all their updates on fb and ig. stop! stop it! youre making me feel like an old geezer! ok well old geezers nowadays are very much on facebook... an ancient geezer. youre making me feel like A Ancient Woman

Abolish ICE. A little journal comic from South Minneapolis.

#iceoutmpls #iceoutcomics #iceoutofmpls
Just before Christmas, I got a puppy. Her name is Minerva, and we call her *Minnie. I'm still learning how to understand her. Me: Do you need to go outside? Do you need to go outside, little baby? Do you need to do a poo? Do you need to do a widdle piddle? Minnie: Arf! *I just call her "little baby" most of the time. I'm also realizing I can't turn off the baby talk now. Nobody tells you about that. I got so lucky with my first puppy. Her wonderful foster parents had her completely house-trained by the time we adopted her, so taking her outside for potty time has been pretty easy. I've got the puppy poopy routine pretty much down, now. Me, putting on my coat: Let's see... I got the little poopy bags, puppy treats for bribes, jacket, scarf, phone… I think that's everything… Oh yes! And my passport. I had been carrying around my passport for a while, but I knew it didn't matter. This is wrong. Nobody is required to carry around their papers. I became a US citizen when I was seven. Since I was born in a refugee camp, I was stateless. The US is the only nation where I've ever held citizenship. It's the only passport I've ever had, and it still felt important. Protective. I would hold it in my pocket like a talisman, like it might ward off ghosts or something. But I realized I was holding onto it basically out of superstition. ICE will pick up anybody. I know that. So I tucked my passport away. And I largely avoid leaving my house. I live a few blocks just South of George Floyd Square. I was in the neighborhood for that, too. And all the neighbors came together to protect each other. We're already organized. We'll do our best to get through this. Me, to my dog: I hope I can take you for a walk someday soon. Won't that be nice, little baby?

A fog surrounds, obscuring the horizon, tents sit upon drenched soil and sand and in the foreground is Ahmed, young and barefoot. Too lightly dressed for the weather.

cool street photos from the past couple weeks
A black and white photograph showing an strongly contrasted urban scene. In the background, classic parisian appartment buildings. In the middleground a more modern curved structure. In the bottom left corner a ray of light falls on two security guards leaning against a wall, writing on the wall behind them reads "Chatelet Les Halles). A strongly constrasted black and white photo of an urban setting. On the bottom right of the photo, a man is standing on the curb, waiting to cross at a zebra crossing. The man stands in a sliver of light and casts a long shadow on the street. He stands out on the background that is mostly in the shadows. The light also illuminates a seemingly abandoned appartment building in the background. A strongly constrasted black and white photo of an urban setting. It shows a white wall with strong sunlight hitting it. In the left half of the image, a lamppost catches a shadow on the wall. The image is almost abstract and geometric A strongly contrasted black and white of an urban setting. In the foreground, in the bottom right of the image, a man is seen from behind, walking forward. In the background a tall and slim appartment building with art deco architecture, stands out in the light against the dark sky.

Studio Ghiblis films are amazing but not one has topped this one. I can't even pinpoint exactly why, it just resonates with something in me.
