Hey. So we heard Iceblock got removed from the app store. We built fire-app.net for android. We also made our reports available on the site itself for those without android, so they can still see realtime reports. Help track Ice agents wherever they are. #ice #maga #dhs #miller

𝘊𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘭 𝘓𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘴𝘤𝘢𝘱𝘦 (1944) by Charles Seliger at the Wadsworth Atheneum in Hartford, CT. Though not considered a surrealist, Seliger's work bears the influence of Surrealism, particularly given his relationships with Peggy Guggenheim and Max Ernst in the early 1940s. #Surrealism #HartfordHasIt

Some people exploit others without even enjoying it appreciably—among them money is a common tyrant—among them money is like a snake that bites it's own tail and a bomb fuse. –André Breton, 𝘗𝘳𝘰𝘭𝘦𝘨𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘢 𝘵𝘰 𝘢 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘳𝘥 𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘧𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘰 𝘰𝘳 𝘕𝘰𝘵 (1942) #surrealism

Today...Surrealism is restoring language to its magical and poetic essence, freeing it of debilitating commercial/utilitarian detours and aesthetic roadblocks, and enabling it to emerge in its true light as the 𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦. –Franklin Rosemont, 𝘙𝘦𝘷𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘦𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘶𝘴 (2004).
