My contribution to last week's rally. #NoKings

Derp.

This is what Republicans used to be. No more.

I impulsively decided to try linocut. #NoKings #linocut

Proud to be a part of this (holding one of those red lights!) last night They tried to stop us, stranding drivers on the bridge with no warning. Luckily, Jacksonville is a city of many bridges and we'll light them all up ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

I've finally finished my first stained glass piece! I've been slowly working on it over several months. What should I make next?? #stainedglass

Tuesday evening reminder: Write the book. Make the zine. Pack the shelves. Fill the world with so many stories they'll never be able to silence us all.

At the end of the day, don’t we all just want to read books in a Scottish Highlands cottage during a pouring rain whilst enjoying a plate of emotional support cinnamon rolls?

Awkward teenage me. I'm going to be working on a graphic memoir(ish) about growing up queer and (undiagnosed) Neurodivergent in the 90s. Watch my Substack if you want to follow along.

Does this count for #MerMay? 😝

Congrats to Canada on picking a Liberal government and rejecting the stink of Trumpism! Elbows up!

Canadian Voter: I think who I voted for would be the best to take care of Trump, because Trump is, I’m sorry to say, an asshole.

In response to all the terrible things happening right now, I've been pushing my introverted self to be more involved with the community. I got appointed to the local library board and started volunteering with our closest Pride group. I made this poster for their art show. #illustration #pride

The Squirrel of the Day for March 28, 2025 wears a beautiful leaf hat #sqrlpix

NONE of this is normal

Sanders: I will tell you what I think the worst addiction in this country is, the most dangerous, and that is the greed of the oligarchs. Everybody wants to do well. These guys already have billions, tens of billions, hundreds of billions. How much money do you need?

This is a friendly reminder that library cards are free, and your local public library will never make you pay extra so you don't have to watch ads.

In this interview Schumer says he agrees with Trump’s decision to pull $400 million from Columbia. A university in his own state. And he’s unconcerned about the unlawful arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, one of his constituents. He is a traitor who needs to resign.

"dei medal" you might as well just put "n*gger medal" because that's what they mean to say

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

Indeed.

Authoritarians govern through fear, not legislation. The simple fear of what they would do in certain situations can push even the opposition to capitulate. That’s success for them. We lose when we fold due to a hypothetical. We win when we challenge the REALITY that is hurting working people.

THIS ENERGY IS WHAT WE NEED AND EXPECT FROM EVERY MEMBER OF CONGRESS! Thank you Representative John Larson!

A journalist I respect(ed?) talked about how Twitter being down basically left him feeling like an addict without a fix, and I just wanna know why the fuck anybody is still using a platform owned by a Nazi? Why support a man who is destroying democracy and killing Americans?

the feminine urge to

“There are times when it is better to stand alone than not stand at all. This President is disrupting the healthcare system. He is all but defying court orders. At some point, we’re all going to have to stand up.” - Rep. @algreen.house.gov, after being removed from the House chamber, 3/4/25

Netanyahu’s extremist government has halted ALL humanitarian aid into Gaza. Starving children is a war crime. UN leaders said: "International humanitarian law is clear: we must be allowed access to deliver vital lifesaving aid. We need to get aid in and the hostages out.”

NEW: A source tells me that response teams for FEMA set to deploy to the South Carolina wildfires are unable to travel because their government issued travel cards have had their limits reduced to $1. FEMA response team cards were supposed to be exempt.

"We value you" is often used not as a promise of reward, but as a *substitute* for reward. It lets the speaker claim a virtuous position that their behavior doesn't actually exhibit. Governments don't say "we value oil and gas executives," because it's self evident from their actions.

t-minus 1️⃣ day!! you should totally join the challenge :) #illustration #kidlitart #mARTch

This hit right in the feels 🥹♥️

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

During the US governors ball, the US Army Choir surrounded the MAGA leadership and sang: "Do You Hear The People Sing" The oligarchs didn’t even realize they were being protested. #3E #USprotest #EndOligarchy

URGENT: The House is set to vote tomorrow on whether to advance $880 billion in cuts to Medicaid — eviscerating essential programs that provide lifesaving services for people with disabilities, children, seniors, and more. Tell your representative now: Don't cut Medicaid.

Honestly, stop supporting these businesses always (if you can). Seek out grocery co-ops, farmers markets, small businesses, resale shops, buy-nothing groups, find your community! Keep all dollars in your local economy.

👀 NEW: the current under secretary of State for Management, Ambassador Tibor Nagy, has sent an email regarding OPM's request for five accomplishments: "No employee is obligated to report their activities outside of their department chain of command."

Ok, so IRS got the 5 bullet points, justify your job, email. Our Union NTEU is saying to not respond at this point until National NTEU has a chance to assess the implications of responding. 1/2

If not Nazi, why Nazi shaped?

“We had to erase trans people or we couldn’t get our federal funding” Fuck the federal funding. You fight, you sue, you do not become complicit in our mass erasure. We are all in this together, and we all go down together. I will not allow us to be jettisoned or erased.

I don’t know why this is hard for folks to understand. The layoffs aren’t just about probationary employees. They are going beyond that. It won’t stop. It’s all about making agencies non-functional.

FASCIST COUP

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

What the actual fuck?! America, it’s time to rise. When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty!

Feeling... rough. Lately.
