my daily art - spindle wind
crayon drawing. Revisiting the thimble-headed character from a few days ago. This time they're wrapping a thread around some kind of spike. The bird perches on top of it, looking skyward.

my daily art - who's king, whose king?
crayon drawing. Chess board, with a very large and dominant horse head knight, staring down a couple of other pieces. The color scheme is purple and yellow, basically.

my daily art - old and green
crayon drawing. Two beings having large, old and tired-looking heads on stems, with happy green leaves, little skirts and funny shoes. They may be whispering conspirationally, or making knowing comments to each other.

my daily art - pulling the string
crayon and ink drawing. One odd being is holding a string connected to a series of perhaps pulleys. Another stands with their arms upraised. A bird watches from above. This is all happening in a thicket of bare trees, and there's maybe an opening or door up above where the pulleys hang.

my daily art - houseplant nightlife
acrylic painting. A big-leafed plant in a whimsical blue and purple pot, against a black background with a big round orange light - moon? lamp?

my daily art - sitting standing
crayon and acrylic. Two figures; the one in the foreground seated, maybe a little uncomfortably; the one behind and to the left, standing but armless and with dog or bird legs. Between them sits the ghost of a cat.

my daily art - night dance

good explanation of something i have often wondered about
hughjassle.bsky.social Hugh Jass @hughjassle.bsky.social · 7d
Not to defend the ASC in the OP because I don't know them and they could be sketchy as fuck, but I do want to provide context to why providers charge ridiculous rates regardless of what the insurance company will pay or what is a reasonable amount to charge a patient.

People talk a lot of (completely justified) shit about the insurance companies but the kind of shit that healthcare providers increasingly try to get away with will make your eyes bleed

my daily art - roar energy
crayon drawing. A sort of bug is in the lower right corner, baring teeth and making claw-hands. they have a bumble bee sweater and purple arms and legs, and curly antennae. cuuuute. The rest of the picture is large curls in a sort of fleur de lis shape, pink and purple, with yellow and orange energy lines.

my daily art - holding a happy place
crayon drawing. Three figures dance in the foreground. Two little round dwellings, one has a lavender ribbon swirling out and up to the sky where a sun and moon also dance.

Today in war ravaged Portland, the sign bombers employed new tactics, printing “official” signs and installing them around the city. We’re being overrun with free speech and creative signage! Oh no!!!!

Hey, I managed to get back to my studio! Still limping, but hopefully the worst of the healing is now behind me.

my daily!!! art: resurrection
a green being something like a praying mantis but minus one set of legs, and a head a bit more like a frog, eyes and arms uplifted before an aggressive red and purple sky.

my daily art - one more last one
crayon drawing. A child eagerly reaches for an ice cream cone that an adult is handing them, although the placement is pretty awkward. I didn’t think I’d get into the studio today, what with preparations for tomorrow’s surgery, but hey! I found an hour so so and that was a treat.

my daily art - last call
crayon and acrylic. Some kind of bird, with storky orange legs and bill, blue and purple plumage, tail a bit like a rooster. Abstract green and blue background, to use up the acrylic paint currently on my palette. I’m going for a hip replacement on the 27th, and probably won’t be able to get to my art space for a week or two. So cheers till then.

I truly hope this is for real. And provides a model going forward.

I haven't seen people here mention this letter from the mayor of Illinois' 2nd-largest city (Aurora, 40+% Latino)

to the Aurora Police

following egregious attacks by immigration in Aurora and related protests

So here it is!
Hello Chief and APD Leadership, I just wanted to jot a quick thank you note for those who participated in this meeting with the Latino community about ICE in our neighborhoods. Sadly, this problem is not going away anytime soon. Historically, the police have been on the wrong side of history during the civil rights movement and the labor movement - defending capital. The pivotal points in American history are when police realized that their solidarity should be with labor; not capital. Labor vs. police: Learning from working-class history Workers World In this current struggle, I believe that we are 2-3 years away from a moment where we see the shift in solidarity. I would like to see Aurora lead, and show something different. It will create discomfort during the transformation. I noticed during the march towards Blue Kangaroo, when the police escort disappeared, that activists I didn't know used their vehicles to block the intersections and protect the marchers. All living things have the capacity to evolve and grow. Government is about to go through a huge evolutionary period and shed that which is not necessary, and re-focus on what is important. As government continues to disintegrate from the top down, we have an opportunity to re-invent the ways we find food, water, shelter and protection. We would like the Aurora Police Department to play a historic role in defending the United States of America, and our city against fascism. We have a unique opportunity to do something different, leave our mark in the history books, and make a difference. I'm excited about the opportunity and look forward to discussing it further. Respectfully, John Laesch Mayor, City of Aurora laesch@aurora.il.us

my daily art - wiggle and shout
crayon drawing, abstract. A bunch of curly mauve and lilac curly lines, surrounded by some short straight yellowish shout lines. Probably I’ll add some more to this one, if I feel like it.

my daily art - river of souls
crayon drawing, abstract. A flowing pink and purple shape, diagonal across the page, with yellow/red streaks, and several glowy yellow/red orbs. A bigger glowing orb at the top right, in light blue ground. On the other side, swirling dark blue and purple.

People see political parties as part of their personal identities and not a set of employees sent to represent their political values and best interests which is how we end up "lesser of eviling" and "no matter whoing" our way into this fascist hell hole

my daily art - storm looms
crayon drawing. two rather meat-colored clouds sit heavily in a dark blue watery sky. Or maybe it’s islands on an ocean. Soft green and pink land in the foreground, with some prickly foliage of imaginary writing spinning across it in pink and green.

my daily art - stitching of wounds
crayon drawing, abstract. A big pink sack-like shape is surrounded by some meandering lines, apparently drawn by a couple of winged bug-like shapes. There’s some other stuff going on, something that looks like a tadpole in the upper left corner, which might have emerged from the sack? I don’t know, I was just doodling, but I think upcoming surgery is always in the back of my mind.

crayon drawing. A big round moon outlined in magenta, has a face with eyes closed in repose, and a bindi on their forehead. The sky is yellow, and below are some rugged purple mountains.

my daily art - facing the weather
crayon drawing. A person stands wrapped in a long coat or cloak beside a tree that still has some red-yellow leaves on it. More leaves are blowing in the wind. The person is outlined in mostly blue and purple, and doesn’t look very happy but I guess somewhat resolute.

my daily art - uneasy sits the crown
crayon drawing. A pointy, gangly, bird-like creature (mostly pink) wears a crown but doesn’t look too happy about it. Background is yellow land and blue sky. There’s an odd red shape behind the bird’s neck. Is it a sort of pyramid mound on the horizon? or indication of some kind of wound?
