the fact that so many people frame autism as “a problem that needs to be solved” is a constant reminder that being “not normal” isn’t acceptable to a large amount of the world. it’s the same reason there’s a trans panic right now too. they think people are defective

I did this catgirl maid Godzilla on a client while visiting Columbus Ohio and working at Sacred Hand Tattoo this past weekend. Yes I said Catgirl Maid Godzilla.

Hello, Newark. Just passing through.

People who criticize transgender people say there are only two genders. But the soul has so much more individuality🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 No matter how much my activities are restricted, super Chiitan will continue to speak out until we live in a world where everyone can freely express their love and love each other♡

@nathannun.bsky.social I’m visiting family and my Uncle has this great book on American Labor Posters and I thought you would enjoy this one from the 80s

ernie hudson is 78 and looks fantastic. lets see what rush limbaugh looks like at 70 and oh geez

This is partially so they can also say that legally 14 year olds are adults so it’s ok to fuck these kids.

Just going to remind you that if the police or any other law enforcement show up you should ABSOLUTELY say I INVOKE MY RIGHTS TO SILENCE AND COUNSEL AND WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WITHOUT MY ATTORNEY PRESENT i.e., then say nothing else except repeatedly demanding a lawyer.

Bun time

I think the world needs more positive roll models. Post one of your favorites.

Yeah if you have a Pepe avatar and follow me I’m just gonna block you

This last week has been a real eye-opener in the “who’s a secret nazi” department

Oh man I have a handful of appointments set up for my trip to Sacred Hand in Columbus next weekend and I am going to have fun with some of them. I’m stoked

When politicians come out to express their sympathy with Charlie Kirk, and they never expressed their sympathy with Palestinians, or Haitian refugees, it's because they see themselves in Charlie Kirk and don't see themselves in Palestinians or Haitian refugees

Well, well, well

also if you get called for jury duty DONT TELL THEM YOU KNOW ABOUT JURY NULLIFICATION! for that screening process you are the most white-bread milquetoast cop-believing motherfucker in the room until they actually select you, okay?

Keep those numbers going DOWN

Fuck nazis and fuck apple for putting nazis on their streaming platform

I’m going to go to Boulder for a few days to visit my Aunt, Uncle and some Cousins in a bit more than a week, then after that going to Columbus to work at Sacred Hand Tattoo for a long weekend. First trip out of California in almost 6 years. I really need this.

Mainstream news is all made in the service of capital and fascism.

I've always been sceptical of 'sunlight is the best disinfectant', but I looked it up and apparently it is healthier to hang laundry outside. So maybe that is what we should do with fascists.

Another flash painting down 😸

RIP Graham Greene. Every time he popped up on screen when I was a kid, my mom would excitedly point him out for being an actual Native on the screen. Able to be deadly serious and infinitely hilarious (even in smaller roles like Last of Us), he ate up the screen. Nʌki’wah brother.

We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.

If it happens this weekend, how are you celebrating? I’m definitely vaping hella weed while blasting The Internationale

Burn your black candles, make a sigil, whatever it takes

starting to get a little tired of people trying to hold the democratic party to some standard of conduct that suggests they're anything other than a consciously and deliberately right wing party. they're not going to change, and if they do it'll only be further to the right. move on

Breakfast Club host Charlamagne says of Hakeem Jeffries: "I call him AIPAC Shakur." "I just don't think he stands for anything."

I have made a thing. Hopefully the paints won’t take too long to dry; some are liquid watercolors (Dr. P H Marten’s Hydrus) so I’m not sure if they will lose much volume once dried. The others are all Windsor & Newton tube colors I purchased over 10 years ago.

Another day, more flash painting. Shading today, color another day…

Newsom is a gutless, spineless coward, a cruel neoliberal jackass obviously delighted by violence against the homeless and totally unconcerned with trans lives. A new and inferior iteration of Obama.

I finished the four 5"x7" paintings I was working on. All available on my BigCartel site tattoosbydoughardy.bigcartel.com

This is not a joke. Consider this. Its 150 gigs for images and all. That's literally less than one AAA game.

Working on some paintings. Redraws of 1920s tattoos by Owen Jenson where I kept the animals exactly as they were and made the skulls more in a realistic style. The other are one of my rose designs- I intend to do a number of the roses with different colors to sell on my BigCartel site
