Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married?
Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote.

Today's San Francisco #TeslaTakedown might have had the best turnout yet. It's so energizing to bring your sorrow and rage out into the sunshine with hundreds of like-minded people! Find an event near you, stand up fight back while we still can!

It's my birthday so I thought I'd say hi! I'm Kseniya, I'm 37 today, I was born in Russia but grew up in and consider California home. I used to ride motorcycles and do combat sports, these days I'm into gardening and hunting for antique garbage in the mud flats, go figure! grateful to be around. xo

Proud to #StandupforScience today, as a daughter of physicists, cancer survivor, and human living in the modern world. It's under attack like so many of the things we rely on to survive. Great turnout, hope we all have action plans for the weekend, too! #defenddemocracy #indivisible

In today's Chop Wood Carry Water (superb newsletter), there is a wonderful idea, to send letters of apology/support to Zelensky to show that the idiots in the white house don't speak for us all. I love that. email: emb_us@mfa.gov.ua , physical address in next post in thread (1/2)

I've long accepted that my home country may be a place I'll never see again. It is painful to accept that the monsters that make that so can own my new home country too. Yet, that is clearly happening. But here, for now, we have the power to fight. And that I will, until it's truly impossible. You?

www.mobilize.us/indivisible/ Have you made plans for your weekend protesting yet? use this link. I'm still deciding between San Francisco, Colma, and Palo Alto actions—kinda feel like the latter two could use more support, but all action is a good choice! #teslatakedown #protectdemocracy #resist

Some blue for the blue sky. Cyanotype inspired by granite around Little Bear Lake.
Made in the mountains during my amazing week at SFSU's Sierra Nevada field campus last year. Found materials - bark, twigs, used to create the texture. #cyanotype #fieldresearch #natureart #sfartist

The lines from this scene rattle around in my head daily lately. "Are these men Nazis?" "...No Donny, these men are cowards." Except these men are Nazis AND cowards which is quite the combo, and really, the Walter Sobchaks of the world helped us get to this place too. Sigh, Dude. #resist

Here's where that mural from this week ended up. Will go back for better photos when the weather clears. This was done for a construction company as 'jobsite beautification' so the neighbors get to enjoy art instead of a big container box

Two-day mural in the works. After this I put most the color down and.. I miss the white haha. It was so clean! Painting is funny, there's often a middle period where you're convinced it's all bad and you've totally messed and up you just have to push through it and then suddenly you like it again
