This is amazing. www.getyourfuckingmoneyback.com

Sometimes your tools screw up and instead of casting a bunch of orders plus restock for ECCC you end up with a 10oz blob of sterling that won't fit into your crucibles.

If you're traveling to the US and using a credit card, consider paying cash when shopping with artists at events!! (Or, leaving a small tip, which can help us cover fees!)

If the DMV said “you have one year to get a new license; here’s how to do it for free” it would still be shitty and discriminatory. But to have your license invalidated OVERNIGHT is absolutely malicious.

I'm engraving this on my next journal.

Primarily via this website, we entirely restocked and improved the art and craft room of a women's shelter.

We raised $112k for trans kids last spring on here, and $35k for immigrant kids in the fall... and we're about to raise probably somewhere in between those two amounts for @immcouncil.org next month!

I feel this so hard

THIS IS 👇 HOW IT'S DONE.......

It seems all Kansas-issued trans drivers' licenses are invalid, effective tomorrow It is now illegal for trans people to drive a car until they surrender their license at a DMV (that most will need to drive to) and have it reissued with the wrong gender marker This was never about woman's sports

"Be reasonable about this," he says. "Meet me in the middle." "OK," you say. You take a step forward. He takes a step back. "Be reasonable about this," he says. "Meet me in the middle."

I’ve also been comparing AI to asbestos and radium—technology that had a bunch of benefits but then turned out to be deadly. The only difference is we already KNOW AI is killing people and they’re shoving it into everything anyway

Making a new charm not for any specific reason or collection but just because it's so silly and fun. Im making sterling shrimp charms. They are going to be the cutest earrings.

We talk a lot about meeting basic needs, and YES, that's critical, but it's not the only thing necessary for humans to thrive. We fight for roses, too.

I just backed Laser Joan and the Rayguns on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/548...

Don't miss the chance to get this book! Back now!

Cartoon: If anyone in Chicago knows this school or an anti ICE organization affiliated with them I would be happy to donate this art. I only wish I could have fully Sal Buscema-ed that punch :)

It was interesting that fully clothed non white women dancing was considered "pornographic".

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. Now, Starbucks is lifting a cap on the CEO's use of a private jet to commute from California to Seattle. It's been four years since Starbucks stores began unionizing and workers still don't have a contract.

"When it comes to publishing Harry Potter, it’s pretty simple: don’t." Members of a grassroots movement are pressuring Upper Deck Entertainment to not put tabletop money in the hands of a powerful transphobe. So far, they've been met with silence.

Remember if you watch this show or buy this merch, no trans person will like or trust you ever again. Sorry but those are the rules.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

I am tired of bending into knots to understand the evolution and motivation and pathos of men who hurt people. There's a line from a Doubleclicks song that I come back to: "I don’t care if you are happy now I just hope that you are victimless"

THE FIRST EPISODE OF MY NEW PODCAST DROPPED YESTERDAY!!

worth noting that the second rich people stopped being afraid of mobs tearing them limb from limb, they stopped building libraries and opera houses and stuff and started ripping the copper wiring out of the walls of society instead

TIME TO LAUNCH: CONFIRMED! EARTH GIRLS ARE ANGRY!, a podcast about balancing rage and whimsy, launches on Feb 4th with special guests @tillybridges.bsky.social and @susanlbridges.bsky.social! Join us for a discussion about love, creativity, and how to navigate relationships in unprecedented times.

If Starbucks won’t respect workers at the bargaining table, they don’t deserve our clicks or orders. Our call to action is simple: 📱 Delete the Starbucks app. #DeleteTheApp bit.ly/deletetheapp

Reminder for artists: don't get blinded by the "big number" for an art project. Remember to do the math. $3,000 for a tarot card desk *sounds* great. But in reality you're only being paid $38.46 per artwork. And if each artwork takes 20 hours to make, you're getting paid $1.92/hr

And unless it's a cost-free government ID, it's a POLL TAX. If you have to pay the government for a document that you must have to vote, that is a POLL TAX.

It’s 2026. There is a measles outbreak in the prison for babies

One more reason my soul shrivels up every time I hear someone say "I just used chatgpt to ____"

These were families, elderly folks, concerned citizens of all walks, some at their first protest march. Not remotely violent, and many in fact not as liberal as you'd suspect. You just radicalized all of them, ICE, because you're scared little fake cops.

ICE teargassed a peaceful union-organized march yesterday here in Portland, near my hospital. They teargassed CHILDREN. www.koin.com/news/oregon/...

Happy birthday Tula-Tu! This petite party pachyderm is 1 today 💖

There are four more students from Liam's MN school district in federal detention in Dilley, TX, two of them from the same school as Liam. A second grader, a fourth grader, a fifth grader, and a high-schooler.

BREAKING: Chicagoans can now vote to name one of Chicago’s snowplows “Abolish ICE,” linking the pun to efforts to oppose President Donald Trump’s mass deportation campaign. @wttw.bsky.social

A rare bright spot: finding out Toad The Wet Sprocket dropped a new acoustic album yesterday. My breathing is so chill for the first time in days.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but the purpose of a group of people following ICE and honking horns is not actually getting positive media coverage. It's direct action, with the goal of warning people that the fucking gestapo is coming.

Ma-Matthew Mercer???

4 Black journalists have been kidnapped by the federal government

For Liam.

Students at the University of Minnesota, united with hundreds of groups across the country, are imploring people, young and old, to join a general strike on Friday. No school, no work, no economic participation, all toward the goal of ceasing funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Unclench your jaw. Relax your brow. Go get a drink of water. See if you've taken your meds Eat something. Doesn't matter what you look like right now, i think you look amazing. Because you do. You're a wonderful person. And have this. 🫂🖤 you did great today. You made it through

Reminder: When you feel overwhelmed, you will choose a healthy way to cope. Its healthy to take a break to rest or have fun. You will not feel guilty when you do. You can lean on others for support. You're not alone in this. You choose to be optimistic. I'm proud of you

We did not properly punish the confederates. We did not properly punish the insurrectionists on January 6th. We have to punish ICE. They can’t be allowed to slink back into their communities quietly. Expose them. Arrest them. Convict them. Imprison them.

Got to the episode where @titanupthedefense.bsky.social references the 1st time I did this. Which normally would make me recalculate for my own knowledge. But gold has gone up like $600/oz in the last month so it will just make me sad I don't have any gold horseshoes to smuggle.
