Wow, the combination of the self-sorting on this app and the fact that it's still new-ish makes it feel so wholesome and nostalgic. Anyways, intro. I'm Laura, a 34yo illustrator and motion designer. Passionate about disability justice & climate stuff. Free Palestine. Here's some of my work!

It's a tough month fundraising-wise because a couple of Nevra's regular supporters are dealing with financial hardship. Chip in if you can!
My friends made these graphic to push for a boost for my fundraisers — both need urgent support so I’m not homeless and can survive

I believe this is the first elected Dem member of congress in the country to make this call. We get the party we demand.
Dem Rep. Glenn Ivey just called for Schumer to step aside-to big cheers from his constituents.
Ivey: "It may be time for the Senate Democrats to pick new leadership."
Ivey: "It may be time for the Senate Democrats to pick new leadership."
Constituents are booing and yelling out when Rep. Glenn Ivey mentions Chuck Schumer at his town hall in Suitland MD right now.
Very heavily Dem district with a ton of govt workers.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he ordered the strikes because of a lack of progress in talks to extend the ceasefire. Officials said the operation was open-ended and was expected to expand.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.
Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

I love to call my Senators' offices three times per week and try to cajole them into doing the most elementary political messaging and strategy. This is what it means to be an engaged citizen: leaving a strenuously polite voicemail for a 74yo on a more regular cadence than I talk to my parents.
