@jfrejnyc.bsky.social art is amazing! Really livens up the whole ecosystem. And their range is incredible: moods both joyous and solemn, messages both sarcastic and sincere, puns both Yiddish and gentile, colors both bright and matte—they do it all.

The crime is not what we were doing protesting in the 10th floor elevator lobby of 26 Federal Plaza.

The crime is what ICE agents are doing on the other side of the door.
