Howdy folks!

We've been made aware that people are having issues accessing the Tumblr page for the prints, specifically that people need to be able/willing to sign into/make a Tumblr account. We're figuring out the permissions for that in the meantime, and brainstorming access otherwise.

For our US-American followers, we hope you have had a pleasant 35th anniversary of the ADA, and that you can spend some time resting, in community, etc. You deserve to take a moment of respite in these times, it's necessary to keep moving forward.
aclu.org ACLU @aclu.org · Jul 26
The ADA was signed into law 35 years ago today, and remains the most comprehensive civil rights law protecting people with disabilities.

This anniversary comes at a time when the health and dignity of disabled people are under attack by the Trump administration.

Not insanity. Racism. White supremacy. Re-segregation. Eugenics. Exclusion. Hating Black people.

Call it what it is. Stop giving these fools cover by calling it insanity.

Please wear a mask when you can. Even if you don't always, even if it's not the best mask, even if you didn't this morning and you'd feel silly if you did now... any amount of masking is better than none. Nobody is perfect, we're all doing our best, please mask and protect yourself and everyone ❤️

The Long Covid Game -- Love this.

For folks engaging with large groups who want to teach about the importance of masking and the risk of getting LongCovid, this is an excellent game you can play and use as a teaching tool.
