Commission your friends for art. Give them dollars (this makes them happy) in exchange for drawing you like (this makes you happy). This is symbiosis. This is a healthy ecosystem.

One of the most important things we can do in the face of disinformation and lies is to know our rights, and to help our neighbors and communities know their rights, regardless if they are citizens or non-citizens.

We're in the midst of a constitutional crisis.
The world's richest man is effectively orchestrating a coup.
At the very least, Senate Dems should not be confirming any of Trump’s nominees for any agency while this power grab continues.
Nothing should be "business as usual."

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.
