I know we're all mad about ICE/DHS but we also need to be mad about RFK Jr.

He's killing -- and is setting the stage to kill -- waaaaay more people than DHS does, it's just that it happens quietly and in people's homes. Vaccine recommendations matter. Lying under oath matters.

IMPEACH RFK JR
Three members of Congress and the governor of Hawai'i, a medical doctor who responded to the measles outbreak in Samoa, are calling for RFK Jr's resignation. Emails now reveal he lied under oath about his antivax role in those 83 deaths.
RFK Jr misled Senate during confirmation, Congress members and Hawaii governor say
Newly revealed emails undermine Kennedy’s testimony about 2019 Samoa trip ahead of deadly measles outbreak

If you’re asking yourself how to make art right now

Use your tears as ink
Your rage as paint
Your heartbreak as melody

if you’re an artist it will rip you apart if you don’t

Queer people, POC, disabled folks, & women have been using art as resistance for our entire history

Don’t stop making art

Greenland is Inuit Land. US & Europe playing tug of war with Kalaallit Nunaat, it will be Indigenous people who suffer most. Colonization is not a distant history.

Under a colonial system built on white supremacy violence never disappears it only reiterates itself, sometimes dressed up differently.

There's so many, but AG Slatter is currently capturing a lot of my attention.
If you see this and agree, you are obligated to rec a book by a fantasy author who's still writing. I don't make the rules.

I mean, I do. Please though? It'd be great.
I'm always baffled by the "I'll ONLY read old fantasy" crowd.

You know there are LIVING authors doing really cool stuff, right? Like, LOTS of them? And we could get MORE if more people bought their stuff?

I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally

I know we're all seeing 87 unhinged things per day, but "guys if our multi billion dollar product doesn't start being useful for something, literally anything, the people might not appreciate us wrecking the planet over it anymore" is a truly bananapants thing to say out loud

Back again with my #OV #LGBT #HU #YA(?) #W IP for #BluePit 📖! A romp through a colorful, heightened #HS torical playground.

Can one defeat the patriarchs with the very weapons of masculinity? Well, one angry trans boy can sure try stabbing them a lot.

🔥WHAT will GROW from the ASHES?

A young woman's quest across ruins of former US becomes larger than saving her village from raiders. It offers humanity a way forward in a world desperately in need of change.

My MC Adam is proud of his photography skills, especially when it comes to getting action shots of superhumans fighting. (He might be a little famous for it, but he’s worked really hard to keep his identity secret. He’d like it to stay that way.)
