I came across this promo I made for my shop in 2023 incorporating then-new niche “AI video,” reveling in its comically offputting garbage outputs while it was already being hyped as “tHe fUtUrE oF hOlLyWoOd,” but actually this was the aesthetic peak of the tech, it should have stopped right here.

I just found out I might not be able to vend at the holiday markets I was planning on because there was a glitch with my application and I've been too overwhelmed with other stuff to realize I hadn't heard back from them. I feel very stupid about this but anyway my online store is more crucial now
look I'm extremely not feeling promote-y or salesman-y this season but i just made the grave mistake of looking at my bank account so i should probably lyk there's a sale on in my etsy store this week: www.etsy.com/shop/panands...

Alright I am two-thirds done with the illustrations for my 2026 David Lynch tribute calendar! I will hopefully remain on track and be able to send to print in early November.

FYI pre-orders really help me gauge how many to print, and cover up-front costs!

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

If the height of your ambition for regime change is to escape fascism yourself while abandoning trans people to its continuation in the shadows, fuck you.

Though civilians are only watching and sometimes yelling, ICE shoots tear gas at them and a passing car. They fire right at a woman. She had not done anything to threaten them.

Old enough to remember when 30 campus speaker disinvitation attempts were a grave threat to free speech

honestly what's most surprising is how long we took to get to this point, since the Patriot Act set this stage over 20 years ago. The best time to fix things was back then, the second-best time is NOW before it gets worse. Because it will get worse very fast.
The day is coming and I mean very soon where any speech deemed “a threat to national security” by any citizen will be subject to censure and prosecution. That anti terrorism loophole is going to be everyone’s downfall. Everyone.
I was told these people were “free speech absolutists”

one of the slow burning but fundamental things that lead me to becoming a leftist after being a self-stated proud lib in the 00s was not being able to sit with the contradictions of how people would welcome in me, a (white) queer, but would treat arabs like dirt

and that really ain't gotten better

Columbia's Provost evidently sent this message to faculty forbidding them from moving classes offline or canceling them amid ICE activity on campus.

"we didn't have the numbers in congress" is just treated as a Get Out Of Responsibility Free card. you can be talking entirely about decisions that all come down to the executive and the departments they can instruct all on their own and people will still go "BUT CONGRESS"
