Just got back home from a much needed break in WA, OR, and BC. I took a Sirui Saturn 50mm anamorphic lens with me just for fun and ended up using it almost exclusively. I'm stunned by how well some of these came out! More here: www.instagram.com/p/DOeYRsvkim6/

Did Raygun (the infamous Australian Olympic break dance participant) get her moves from Bride and Prejudice (2004)? Did we already do this and I missed it?

A few of us visited the land where developers want to build a giant data center (#ProjectBlue) in the desert east of Tucson. We found it teeming with life. You have to see it to comprehend how much they want to destroy for this monstrosity that will continue destroying the environment.

Two of three vigils Fri in Tucson: the first for those who've died or continue to languish in ICE custody, and the second for Saif Musalat, a young man from Florida who was murdered by Israeli settlers in the West Bank.
The third was for Jaime Alanís, a farmworker who was murdered by ICE in a raid.

They never deal with how we got here, because they'd have to acknowledge well-funded, murderous cultural work from the right, and NO ONE from orgs and foundations like fought back. Culture doesn't just happen. They didn't learn after Karl Rove and now we're doing this bullshit again.

The DNC is running a con game. People are calling their reps nonstop, every day. Tomorrow will see some of the largest protests so far and it's a weekday. Yet the only thing the DNC is willing to measure is money.

Today's #TeslaTakedown protest in Tucson. Over 1000 people showed up at 8:30am to say NO to this fascist admin. I was encouraged to see many signs in support of Mahmoud Khalil and Palestinians generally. Attendance was down because earlier and warmer, so that should tell you what it's been like!
