I've talked to people on the ground about the strike here tomorrow, and the single thing everyone brings up is just how shockingly wide the support for the strike is. Businesses that no one would have expected to support it are doing so.

some of my thoughts on AI, with an Indiana focus (was originally written for something else, retooled it for this). medium.com/@zachammerma...

Again, we don't have an Opposition Party, not even close; these people are a dangerous fucking joke, the lowest bar possible. We have a room full of people who are "colleagues" with fascists, who protect their capital at all cost & do the bare minimum to gaslight enough people to get reelected.

driving through very rural virginia near west virginia today we saw a quite large group (20ish) of anti trump protestors with canadian and ukrainian flags with a much much smaller (1-2 people) group of counter protestors

The Battle of Horseshoe Bend took place on this day in 1814. This is a map of the battle I researched, pitched and made as lead map and infographic designer for a nationwide US history platform being rolled out in middle and high schools now.

A map I designed last year for the Department of Justice in the case United States v. Abbott, regarding the placement of razor wires and buoys along the US-Mexico border in the Rio Grande.

going to have to expand this map pretty far north pretty soon so reposting now to get some more juice out of it lol. the MBT:

we believe we are special and we simply are not

Gnarly Native Plants of the Mid-Atlantic. An infographic I made for fun a while back.

Universities keep thinking "If we just give Trump what he wants, he won't attack us" despite the entire 20th century (and most of human history) proving otherwise. Do none of these institutions have history departments?

first 70+° 25 mile bike ride of the year always hits a little different

badass birds of the midatlantic: an infographic I made for fun a while back.

A map of transportation and major cities in the United States in 1830. I made this as lead map and infographic designer for a nationwide US history platform being rolled out now in middle and high schools across the US.

Indiana University Bloomington 3D campus map, for fun. In my opinion the most beautiful college campus in the U.S.

DC I love you but there is a small but VERY obnoxious percent of us who must ALWAYS try to appear to be the smartest person in the room and they drive me insane.

Last but certainly not least, DC's Ward 6:

🌸 🌸 🌸 It's getting close to that time of year here in DC 🌸 🌸 🌸 Here are two cherry blossom-themed maps I've made of DC a few years ago:

les arrondissements montréalais d'Ahuntsic-Cartierville, de Saint-Laurent, et d'Anjou:

I am looking for new contract work over the next few months, hit me up if you've got a report, map, infographic, data visualization or website that needs designed. More details below

The story of US relations with Native Americans is one of constant backstabbing, deceit, and pulling the rug out from under people. A map I made of treaties between the US and Native Americans during the early Republic.

it's always tickled me that Montréal orients everything in the city by the St.-Lawrence river, using their own compass based on the flow of the river for naming things, which leads to situations where one of the most southeastern boroughs is named southwest...

A little infographic I made about the Panama Canal as lead map and infographics designer for a nationwide US history education platform being rolled out in middle and high school across the country right now.

Le 1er arrondissement de Paris, en 3D:

getting into photography as a hobby is expensive af but leads to excellent desktop backgrounds lol

a couple of maps and infographics on the Vietnam War that I made as lead map and infographics designer for a US history platform being rolled out now in middle and high school nationwide.

the japanese apricots are starting to bloom! IMO their flowers are way prettier than yoshino cherries, they smell like heaven (like toasted almonds mixed with flowers) and bloom way earlier than cherries, my personal favorites

Some maps on one of my personal favorite historical subjects, the peopling of the Americas. I made these as lead map designer for the Story of America Project, a nationwide US history education platform being rolled out in middle and high schools across the country right now.

Say 👋 to northern spotted owl, sand dune lizard, Delta smelt, greater sage grouse, and many other species. Already devastated wildlife populations will disappear. www.americanprogress.org/article/amer...

L'arrondissement montréalais du jour: Outremont

I love all the art in severance more shows should have lots of beautiful art in them

L'arrondissement montréalais de Villeray-St.-Michel-Parc-Extension, en 3D.

L'arrondissement de Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve à Montréal. La ville de Montréal est *au moins* la meilleure de l'hémisphère Ouest, et j'y serais déjà si c'était plus facile pour un freelancer américain (qui parle français!) d'obtenir un visa de longue-durée

L'arrondissement de Montréal à la forme la plus bizarre: Côte-des-Neiges-Notre-Dame-de-Grace

Les arrondissements de Rosemont-La-Petite-Patrie et du Plateau-Mont-Royal (tous les deux à Montréal, à mon avis la meilleure ville de l'hémisphère ouest), en 3D:

I made this "map" print of Ukraine to donate to a fundraiser for refugees at the beginning of the war. Sharing today for no particular reason.
