Make art. Enjoy art. Be kind. Laugh. Art, kindness and laughter are powerful resistance. They're the reason resistance is necessary.

Photographers, I'm adding people to my Photo People list every day. I'm unsure if there’s a limit, but I'll keep expanding the list until I’m stopped. Feel free to DM me if you want to join. It's a great way for newcomers to discover new imagemakers on Bluesky. Please RT. Thanks!

The Creative Act and The War of Art by pressfield are my creative bibles. And on my reading list for college courses.
After reading the news headlines and spending ten minutes scrolling through my media feed, I'm reminded that my commitment to creative resistance is essential. Artists, please share if this resonates:

One of my super powers is curiosity - back in my school days encyclopedia’s and libraries is where I could feed my “hey what is ?” maps, photographs are all pathways to a deep dive in what ever question I have of the day. Fast forward to the www and I was hooked.

Speaking of healthcare. Let's make @bsky.app the platform that fights misinformation. Some great follows are @drsusanoliver.bsky.social @jsm2334.bsky.social @therealtruther.bsky.social

Let's get them more followers and engagement than other platforms and let health science accounts find a home

Artists, stop marketing on social media. Just be yourself. Show your work. Share your ideas. Meet new people. Think in public. Have fun. The rest will follow.
