hey idk who needs to hear this BUT, do not mix epoxy sculpt/magic sculpt, Green Stuff, Milliput etc with your bare hands and use a barrier when sculpting it. tldr; it's a sensitizing agent and you'll be fine till you aren't, and go into anaphylactic shock or just get cancer. #sculpting #saftey #art

I deleted TikTok back when the Oracle purchase was announced but if you've still got it, you GOTTA dump it. Especially for trans folks. It straight up says in the new TOS that they--Oracle, the company that has active ties to the Trump admin--are monitoring and documenting trans and NB users.
According to its new privacy policy, TikTok now collects more data on its users, including their precise location, after majority ownership officially switched to a group based in the US. www.wired.com/story/tiktok...

When my family and 120,000 other Japanese American were sent to prison camps in WWII, the government only allowed propaganda photos of things like schools and baseball games to be published. A school in a prison is evidence of evil, none of these people, especially children, should be imprisoned
ICE is sending these kids to the concentration camp in Dilley, Texas, where they're preparing to have so many children that they're opening a new school there. They're actively hiring teachers now. I reported on it last month. We have to get people out of there.

For people asking “why isn’t there a general strike?” earnestly, and not just to be a judgmental prick
Congress passed the Taft-Hartley Act in 1947 (over Truman's veto) to make general strikes so incredibly difficult to organize that there hasn't been one since.
That there is a general strike happening in a major US city on such short notice is nothing short of a miracle.
That there is a general strike happening in a major US city on such short notice is nothing short of a miracle.
National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation.
Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

Today a friend shared that he was going to be traveling home to Mexico and while he's not moving home *just yet,* he is afraid of coming back through our border because "there are no rules that they have to follow in regards to any person."
Which I don't disagree with. There's no defense for this.

Here is a video of a frozen creek that had begun to thaw, and the water was flowing beneath the thin ice on top. I took this because it was soothing and wonderfully bloopy and I wanted to listen to it for hours. You are all welcome to enjoy it, too. Let your brain settle here and rest for a moment.

Saying ICE just needs more extensive training is like if a baby was waving a gun around and instead of saying "Holy shit that baby shouldn't have a gun" you tried to teach the baby proper trigger discipline.

The leading cause of death by far among ICE officers is COVID-19.
How dangerous is it really to work for ICE?
According to ICE’s own data, none of its officers have been killed by an immigrant in the agency’s history.

I say this often but it bears repeating: if you make your money from creating art then you NEED to find an art or craft where you just do it for fun and don't try to be perfect or make any money from it, and when anyone tells you to monetise it you say 'No', because otherwise your soul will die.
