Making fun of our neighborhoods and communities is disgusting.
Greg Bovino and his masked agents are not here to make Chicago safer. As children are tear gassed and U.S. citizens detained, they are posing for photo ops and producing reality TV moments. blockclubchicago.org/2025/11/10/b...

Border Patrol Agents Pose At The Bean For Apparent Photo Op
The photo op came after agents tear-gassed a Little Village street and were spotted in the area numerous times. At the Bean, one agent shouted, "Everyone say, 'Little Village!'"

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Will just leave this clip here of Kris Kristofferson, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings talking about what’s wrong with America from a 1991 interview and it’s still all very true today

Make your art political. Make your art divisive. If people complain, make your art more political and divisive. Don't relent. The people destroying the world won't.
Say what you have to say. Art is about screaming. People need to hear screaming, so they know it's okay for them to scream too.

I need help: decades ago Minicon was held in a Sheraton that used these pillows. We have two, only one pillowcase, all in bad shape. But they are the pillows my son wants. He’s autistic. Consistency really matters. And I can’t find them for sale anywhere. I’m hoping the internet can help!

Never in my life would I have thought I would knit something like this. I hated ribbing: seed stitch was a level of hell I couldn’t imagine.
Then I learned the Norwegian way of knitting and purling. Game changer! No more throwing!
I love this so much💕 #WIP #Knitting #ShowMeYourKnits
