You think you've seen it all, you've seen it all except the future

Accidental perfection

I’m not optimistic but I still appreciate the 'good for now' news. Meanwhile, I’ve seen footage of right wingers showing up at the ICE facility, chanting their appreciation to ICE, and plenty of right wing vloggers are on the ground to ‘create content’ & stir shit up. And-

"This is how we live now: our ordinary places become something else, in an instant, subject to the whims of some bastard out to inflict cruelty or having a bad day or just following orders or a combination of it all.” from the thoughtful essay by dan sinker

Current mood.

Your gentle reminder that Rep. Melissa Hortman was assassinated on June 14 and hardly anyone bothered to talk about it.

Required reading.

My head hurts from chronic SMDH.

We've recieved more photos from the inside of the South Shore apartment building that federal immigration agents raided over Monday night. Doors bashed in, window panes missing, furniture smashed, water on the floor. It's unclear what damage was pre-existing and what was inflicted in the raid.

Schumer dropped a bad beat-can’t wait to hear a backing track for it

Terrifying. ‘She says agents took everyone in the building and asked questions later.’ "It was scary, because I had never had a gun in my face," “they was bringing the kids down too. Had them zip tied to each other," “We're under siege. We're being invaded by our own military."

Current mood

This morning in the “war zone” of Portland,OR. Chill as usual & ❤️rain❤️

Every morning your Democrat representative gets bonked on the head and becomes Ronald Reagan, so you have to call them to remind them to do good things. This is how representative Democracy and political parties are supposed to work

Morning light in my living room with a subtle rainbow flare.

When I saw all the police cars parked at the mall, I thought there was an incident, but then I got inside and saw them all lined up at the bullet engraving kiosk.

Of course I was reorganizing my various super colorful art supplies while listening to the presser. My autism/adhd/ocd stops for no one!

Show us on the doll where Tylenol touched you...

On this historic National Tylenol Causes Autism Day, the "RFK Jr makes some good points" people have been officially upgraded from assholes to extra-strength assholes.

STEL-LAAAAAAAAAA💖!

Silicon Valley venture capital is a state capture mechanism for fascist politics full stop. People need to understand that venture capital is an authoritarian form of capitalism that is more to fascism than traditional economics.

Times drive men to anger…”

Too many white dudes hate the words No or even “Yes, but…” Too many white dudes want to put POC in harms way & call in progress. This isn’t *just* about the RSVP to a protest , like it’s a dinner party, of white saviors.

This brought joy & rang true to me as a long time photographer. Great photos!!

This is my “Hang in there” photo. I took it last month during a blip of joy, as souvenir reminder for weeks like this when I’ve been in a suffocating black tunnel of doom. 🧵

A Pritzker/Lander ticket would be interesting if we ever have a Pres election again (not a diss any other potential options—but in addition to other qualities, Lander is the only candidate I’ve ever seen w/a campaign vid showing how inaccessible or xtra burdensome NYC transit is for the disabled.)

I can’t get past the brutal heavy *sound* of impact, hitting the pavement.

If any of y’all are vets, on long term disability or qualify as low income and take CBD, the place I order from gives 60% discounts www.lazarusnaturals.com/pages/assist... I just re-upped my order & figured I’d share the info.

Olivia Nuzzi whenever someone runs the garbage disposal: I should call him

"What can we do?" Find the helpers and emulate them. Be honest with yourself about your skills and time and resources and use them. If you have money, support mutual aid. If you have time to volunteer, support your local abortion or gender affirming care clinic or library.

🎶 I feel petty,oh so petty I feel petty & bitchy & right 🎶 Not only has the patronizing sexist pig apt. manager been fired as manager but as groundskeeper too(his original job b4 becoming manager). In the past few years he lost his marriage, 2 jobs here + his housing here. 🧵

Sure. It’s the Wi-Fi.

Old lady screams at clouds: back in my day when Free Speech was a thing, we could gather in protest against the current Pres at the Lincoln Memorial & watch bands w/the names Million Dead Cops, the Crucifucks, & Dead Kennedys without any fear of getting shot or shut down.(1983)

Thinking about that other time I saw(& photo’d) a band named after an assassinated president at Rock Against Reagan within walking distance of the White House. But a mainstream talk show host on the other side of the country gets fired because free speech isn’t a thing now. DK > CK.

I’ve lived the stupid timeline of being a teen in DC able to easily see & enjoy a punk band named after an assassinated president at a club less than a mile from the White House (1981) to🧵

I’ve been sickly since Saturday & have adopted my cat’s routine: I day nap when she does & play when she wakes up & wants to. It’s not the worst. And she’s got a helluva high jump. But I’m tired of being sickly.

I just keep feeling so sad for the roommate.

When an existing band writes an opus creating their own fictional timeline of breaking up 15 years earlier:

Karina Villa protecting her constituents by literally running ICE off the streets in West Chicago and yelling to residents to stay inside their homes.

I do so enjoy blocking blue anon/blue💙heart types who try to follow little nobody me. Two of them today had the exact same profile “It’s not about right vs left. It’s about right vs wrong”, low followers, AI looking posts, and following 400K. Beep bop bot bot.

This is What's Helping Today

Y'all work older parents probably need to be aware of this. www.goodhousekeeping.com/health/a6604...

Oh! This looks goooood. Crispin Glover & a feast of beautiful,creepy visuals.

IT’S THE FIRST SUPER SOAKER RAIN DAY OF THE SEASON OF RAIN & I AM SO GODDAMN HAPPY. 🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🦄

I’m going to pour this weeks emotions into some ugly collage work in my dark art journal today. The journal is 6x8inches,black cover, heavy black pages & all of the ‘art’ is solely of black/gray/silver/white/red colors. Anyway. Here’s a morning shadow.

The Black Feminists Who Saw the Alt-Right Threat Coming Before Gamergate, before the 2016 election, they launched a campaign against Twitter trolls masquerading as women of color. If only more people had paid attention. (Context for #EndFathersDay)

fbi puts another one in the books. closing the case the way most crime is solved: someone calls and tells them who did it.
