This firefighter arrived in the US at age 4, has been here for 19 years, was on track to legal status, and was on a crew trying to contain a major blaze (in Washington state, vs Oregon, fwiw.)

This is an excellent thread. I just had a conversation with the lady seated next to me because I pulled out a sketch book to dick around a little and she started in with talent and noooo this is 8-9 months of practicing. I like the weight training metaphor in here too.
I’m late to the conversation, but I keep thinking about it and want to touch on the whole learning art is a miserable thing. I’m not going to share the screenshots, because I’d rather just talk about my thoughts on learning art. Hopefully, it helps people who feel discouraged about their journey. 🧵

The Waldo Junction Knitting Club is a bubble of groupthink
This is what's wrong with America. It's like nobody wants to debate anymore.

"Oh," the unicorn said, "I guess you have caught me. What now?"
"Is it true you can purify anything, and remove poison?" the virgin asked.
"I can."
"How are you at hiding?"
"I can't hide from the innocent, but can evade anyone else."
"Good. I'll need to smuggle you into TV news studios."

We're welcoming back measles and screwworms and none of it has any logic behind it deeper than "back when I was on heroin I realized vaccines contained tiny grizzly bears" and then the fking New York Times devotes 17 paragraphs to the new vaccine bear controversy.

Yes. Also, I am absolutely terrible at asking people to support us, but it would really help. We took ads off the site a few years ago. We have no paywall. Not even a registration wall. We really depend on people just wanting to help us.
