I’ve seen many people declaring that they’re going to stop following Trump supporters and asking for Trump supporters to stop following them.

Great first step. BUT…
Very curious what @juddwinick.bsky.social will think of the movie Hamnet and its climax, considering I connected with it because of certain moment I read in one of his works.

I just voted!

Have you?
Hey (US) folks, if you've complained once about what's going on politically in the US, you better get out there and vote tomorrow.

Only 34% vote...and that's for Presidential Elections; the percentage gets further abysmal in the off-years.

Vote, or shut up.

You may wonder why I’m sharing this. It brought me a laugh b/c it’s based on an actual ad we had on display at Henry Ford Museum that was trying to promote, of all things, use of carpools. Original ad posted in comments.

Over the weekend Only a Few Blocks to Cuba won the bronze medal in the history category at the International Latino Book Awards!

The judges said it was 'Sweeping in scope and worthy of a documentary,' which I thought was a very nice compliment!

Bernie Sanders is, since 2017, less a Senator than a publicist for post-left podcasters who run burnout/crashout political campaigns as promotional stunts for their eventual brands
“Working class” is a term that refers to unemployed men in their 20s. Their work is gaming and they deserve to lead our political movements.

Fuck Scientific American.

Why do people want to carry water for this fascist plagiarism engine? What motivates it? You can see what's wrong with it and why it is a 100% negative for everything it touches, but "Oh, look, Marilyn's on a dragon!"

Blocking this garbage account now.

It’s fucking insane that armed men wearing masks in unmarked cars are pulling people off the streets and disappearing them without due process, and military are being sent into states against the will of their governors, are we are all just going about our days taking our kids to school and shit.

THIS.

I can’t tell you the amount of people I have run into in creative spaces that cannot just take responsibility for being bad or wrong at first and then learning to be better.

They want to be perfect out the gate and when they ask for your “honest opinion” they really just want praise.
The thing with art is - and this goes for every art form - you've gotta be willing to screw up. You have to be okay with the idea that you spend hours & hours on something...and it sucks, or breaks before you're done.

You need to let go of pride.

A lot of folks are not prepared to let go of pride.

The whole “he’s so nice in real life” shit is not the mark of a good person. If they spread hateful violent rhetoric until you meet them, that’s the mark of a coward.

It’s a really, really old trick as well. You have to be real gullible to fall for it.
