It was a LONG journey but finally saw Hamilton on Broadway — 10th anniversary w/ Leslie Odom, Jr back as Aaron Burr!

Failed repeatedly to get tix 10 years ago, film & soundtrack helped my sanity during COVID, so I spent $$$ (including shutdown canceled flight) & I made it! #hamilton #hamilten #nyc

my jaw is on the floor and yet im completely unsurprised. trump’s only political conviction is that he loves a handsome winner
A reporter asks if Mamdani stands by calling Trump a fascist. Mamdani starts to give a delicate answer.

Trump (smiles, pats Mamdani's arm): "That's OK, you can just say yes. It's easier. I don't mind."

Loving all the textures and strokes you can do with digital brushes and an Apple Pencil. Most difficult part this week: figuring out how a tulip is supposed to look when viewed at this angle 🌷 #digitalart #art #artwithflo #procreate #drawing

Made sure to attend another live taping of The Late Show (got priority tickets 😎); first two times with David Letterman, and now second time (& final time) with Stephen Colbert before the show is canceled forever. What a great time for spineless corporate greed #nyc #travel

First time walking across Brooklyn Bridge with fantastic views and great walkways, but massive crowds made the experience much less pleasant. People stopping abruptly in the middle to take selfies, families standing and blocking the entire path. Glad I did it but probably never again 🌉 #nyc #travel

Managed to restrain myself from buying a bunch of stuff during the usual pilgrimage to the Nintendo store but still a fun experience to walk around #nyc #travel

Afternoon tea at Sarisa Cafe with beautiful Thai desserts ☕️🍰. These were absolutely adorable and delicious, and as expected not too heavy or sweet. One of the much cheaper options in #NYC and exactly what I was looking for 🍜 #travel

Delicious, fresh smash burgers and french fries (also reasonably priced) 🍔🍟 at Hamburger America, although we got somewhat depressing cramped counter seats against the wall 🍜 #nyc #travel

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market.

This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

Defense begins, “This case, ladies and gentlemen, is about a sandwich. A sandwich that according to Agent Lairmore somehow both exploded on his chest in a spray of mustard and onions but also landed intact on the ground still in its Subway wrapper.”

Surprise announcement for Animal Crossing: New Horizons Update 3.0 today from Nintendo and I had to laugh (cry?) at one of the YouTube comments. #ACNH continues to release during the roughest times

the symbolism of “Trump destroying the White House for a overpriced luxury vanity project, during a government shut down, days after a historically-large mass demonstration against his regime called “No Kings”’ would be rightly viewed as laying it on a little thick if it was in a work of fiction

Is there a term for being able to gauge the temp based on how the squirrels are splooting?

Still summer in Houston and breaking the record for hottest October temperatures ever - a record set last year. Squirrel in the front yard concurs #photography #nature #squirrel #sqrlpix #wildlife 🐿️

More isometric tutorials! These are always super fun with cute results but surprisingly pretty time-consuming as well. Still impressed by how much lighting and shadows add to the #drawing #digitalart #art #artwithflo #procreate

Good evening. We estimate that between 4.2 and 7.6 million people turned out for the No Kings Day demonstrations held around the country on Saturday. This makes Oct 18 very likely the biggest single-day U.S. protest event since 1970. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/second-no-...
Second "No Kings Day" protests likely the largest single-day political demonstration since 1970, with 4.2-7.6 million participants

Tiny bit of comfort during these stressful days: buy a bundle of fresh eucalyptus ($4) from Trader Joe's, hang it under your showerhead, and enjoy the mini-spa when you turn the water on. Bonus: also smells great all the time

Would love a room like this IRL to relax in! These cozy rooms are really fun to draw although much more time-consuming than you'd think even with built-in drawing guides #drawing #digitalart #art #artwithflo #procreate

BREAKING: Apple removed an app for preserving TikToks, Instagram reels, news reports, and videos documenting abuses by ICE

Apple Banned an App That Simply Archived Videos of ICE Abuses
Eyes Up's purpose is to "preserve evidence until it can be used in court." But it has been swept up in Apple's crackdown on ICE-spotting apps.

related, when the president is invading our own country, waging war on our own people, i don't wanna see dems give the GOP shit they ask for, don't wanna hear shit bout 'we hope our friends across the aisle will work with us on bipartisan solutions to the problems they cause' i don't want none of it
Look. Invading our own country is about as straightforward a case as you can have for impeachment. The GOP abandoning the Constitution is kind of the only story there is and it gets no coverage.
Guys. I just had a crazy idea. What if the President DIDN’T deploy troops in American cities. Just a thought. Have we tried that before?

Perseverance, resilience, enlightenment, tranquility, rebirth — things we could all use right now. I had to redraw each lotus petal 5 times because my lines are still wobbly, but drawing the hatching for the shadows was peacefully therapeutic #drawing #digitalart #art #artwithflo #procreate 🪷
