The sting of colonialism is when you read speculation about your homelands- the Bering Strait- for barter between two deranged leaders. greed + imperialism. As if Native people of the Bering Strait do not exist. As if their lands and waters are open for business of another country for extraction.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

Not sure who needs to hear this, but any govt official who violates someone's constitutional rights -- and is acting outside the scope of their lawful authority -- can be PERSONALLY liable in a civil suit.

ICE officers. Cabinet members. White House staffers. Even the president.

The most helpful understanding I have held for many years is that my sense of security comes from within.

If my sense of security relies on static external factors, it will be rattled frequently because nothing remains changeless.

Anyway. I'm not shipping to the US anymore so if you'd like to #buyCanadian art, I'm having my biggest sale ever on older original paintings with up to 40% off. Runs until the end of March.

I also have over 50 different canvas & paper prints available

California, a state of nearly 40,000,000 people, has the same amount of representation in the United States Senate as Wyoming, a state of less than 600,000 people.

This is the direct result of a deal struck between slave states and free states in the 1700s.

It’s time for that to change.

*WE* have trained legacy media to be the way it is.
And *WE* can re-train legacy media to be the way it was.
Don't feed the trolls. Don't click on click-bait.
Don't click on obvious emotional manipulation.

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.

They run them bc people react to them the most.

If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.

It’s not easy and takes constant practice!
