For better or (mostly) for worse, 2025 is almost over.
For all the human creatives out there, artists, writers, musicians, dancers, choreographers, and so many more, thank you for your perseverance and courage.

Happy to announce: ETCH (Ethnical Technology and Computing for Humanity), a nonprofit.

We took our ULP strike to Starbucks HQ in Seattle and plan to stay until Starbucks stops union busting & brings new proposals to the table.

Yesterday @jayapal.house.gov picketed with us.

Today the cops told baristas they’ve been asked to clear the camp by tomorrow. Watch this space!

"You shouldn't make art for the money" buddy I'll take it one step further and say we shouldn't have to labor for capital at all but in the meantime pay an artist

As long as Spotify is taking money from ICE, they don’t need or deserve free advertising for Spotify Wrapped.

Stop using Spotify until the ICE recruitment ads stop (and be on the lookout for Fascism Wrapped in Los Angeles, Austin, and NYC): indivisible.org/cancel-spotify?source=bluesky

With the recent news I am deeply disappointed and disgusted.

Disney would be nothing without human artists and with AI or not they will continue to be nothing without human artists. For that reason I don’t think this will last. I will no longer accepting assignments or work based on Disney IP.

Kylie Cheung at Abortion, Every Day writes about the future anti-abortion extremists want: "One in which we’re not just stripped of our most basic rights, but also deemed crazy for fighting back—even just for pointing out what’s being done to us."

One of the most exciting sunsets I've captured. A thunderstorm came rolling in just as the clouds started to change color. Smith Rock State Park in Oregon.

Them: “I’m sick of subsidizing their groceries when mine cost so much”

SNAP does not drive up grocery prices.

That would be inflation, tariffs & corporate greed.

For every $1 spent on SNAP there’s a $1.50 going back into the economy.

While you’re blaming the poor, the rich are robbing everyone.

BREAKING: We won!

Today the 3rd Circuit Court ordered the @post-gazette.com to restore our contract it illegally tore up 5 years ago. That’s our health care, PTO, right to a 40-hr. work week, short-term disability and so much more we’ve struck for 3+ years.

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.

I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.

But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.
