Protests in Greenland and Denmark. We stand with them. Resist! ✊ FDT!

The Nobel committee went on to say “For god’s sake, ma’am, have a little self respect”

The Norwegian Nobel Committee made it clear that while a laureate can physically give away the medal or other physical items, that does not make someone else a Nobel Peace Prize winner. The official title and recognition remain tied to the person the committee originally selected.

Stay a while

First art of the year !! (I did this back on the first 😅) Inspired by René Gruau #myart #art #artsky

As a social movements scholar, I absolutely love the diversity of tactics being developed by each city, reflecting their local flavor Portland kept it weird with inflatable costumes Chicago protected its street vendors by buying up their food each day Charlotte chased ICE agents into the woods

the media and most of the public utterly refused no matter what to accept the things Trump said out loud in public as being really real and the media acted like disappointed parents with a lying toddler when Biden or Harris or any Democrat accurately talked about what Trump would do fever dream

on this Martin Luther King Jr's birthday I would like to remind everyone of a personal hang up of mine, that one of Georgia's statues in the US Capital is Confederate Vice-President and huge racist Alexander H. Stephens, and not Dr. King, fucking fix that shit Georgia

As the ambitious, emotional The Testament of Ann Lee sets sail, director Mona Fastvold, choreographer Celia Rowlson Hall and composer Daniel Blumberg tell Ella Kemp about their radical portrait of a leader. boxd.it/2Vm

Reorganizing bookshelves alphabetically and finding books too late have you going like “Engdahl… Kay… Duffy… ANOTHER duffy?? ARGH”

Ghost Sumi and liquid acrylics. I’m not sure how to put into words the intentions of this painting, it’s just full of thoughts and emotions I felt at the time. It’s a silent painting, as silent as an owl flying through the night sky この絵には、なに言えば正直わからない。 感情いっぱい入れているやけど、結構静か 夜の中に、梟が飛んでいるような静か

He doesn’t want you to trust your own eyes he wants you to trust him instead. An end to what, exactly? More violence? More intimidation? More American citizens murdered by the state? Resistance are built on hope.

Yet somehow, he’s now claiming that “paid protesters” need to fall in line or he will invoke the Insurrection Act and “put an end to it.” He claims what’s happening in Minneapolis is an “insurrection,” while January 6th was treated as an unaccompanied tour. The goal is to control the narrative.

Trump is threatening to invoke the Insurrection Act this is a dangerous escalation.

"If one of the parameters in its creation was something similar to “Done in the style of <specific artist>,” that information must be added to the description." So they are also allowing blatant copying of a specific artist's IP??? 😵‍💫 boooo #Comic-con boooooo!!! 🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅

Comic-con deciding to allow GenAi imagery in the art show —giving valuable space to GenAi users to show slop right NEXT to actual artists who worked their asses off to be there— is a disgrace! A tone deaf decision that rewards and normalizes exploitative GenAi against artists in their own spaces!

Searchlight Pictures isn’t doing nearly enough to promote The Testament of Ann Lee, that movie is fantastic.

Just saw the testament of ann lee at USC Frank Sinatra theatre. This Mona Fastvold film is even more beautiful, brilliant, and heartbreaking the second time around.

we’re in the vet’s office waiting room and they just called for Agamemnon. we all looked at the Great Dane but it turns out Agamemnon is an orange kitten in a backpack that makes him look like an astronaut cheese puff

there is no plan, only content, only an endless need for videos and memes that the worst, shittiest, nihilistic alt-right internet edge lords will like and comment on

“Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.” -Thomas Paine, The American Crisis

before Biden dropped out the media, the whole of 2024 up to that point said Biden's age and ability was the single biggest issue after he dropped and Harris became the nominee the media worked over time to dismiss and downplay every concern about Trump returning to office.

Even having lived through it, it’s difficult to remember how fast approval for Gay marriage came and how quickly it became rather normalized without the world ending. Then there are so many voices saying even the Democrats have only moved right for decades

The wisdom of Mr. Rogers is eternal:

This is open white-supremacist fear-mongering, just a reminder to boycott anything tied to Elon Musk.

BREAKING: Massive Crowds of Anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis, Minnesota as we speak. The tide is turning. America is Fed Up. Americans should be fighting back against what is happening in this country. Having masked, secret police shooting people, breaking into homes and cars, is NOT normal.

Today’s budding magicians are trading college and 9 to 5s to work with Chappell Roan, raise money for cancer patients, and perform at Magic Castle, marking a comeback for magic tricks in 2026. The full story: lataco.com/magicians-lo... By Julianne Le

Need I say more?

Jesus wept.

You know what, maybe i’m being too harsh. Maybe the idea is that comparison is the only way to get through to some people

also, seen on reddit a thread saying "i just read animal farm, it's so obvious america slept through its english classes" and like i get it, americans r dumb hurr hurr but like, it takes more than reading one ham-handed book to prepare a citizen to see the slow encroachment of fascism over decades

I get the urge to be like "this is just like nazi germany" or "this is just like the handmaid's tale" or "fahrenheit 451 literally came true" etc etc but at a certain point, comparison just kind of runs out. it's 2026. this is today. this is trump's america.

It's one thing to stay on top of current events, but it's not helpful to marinate in the constant toxicity of worst people on the planet. That's not being well informed. It's poison. Some ppl I know IRL can't see good news without thinking about the bad things ppl must be saying about it on twitter

The ICE agent needs to stand trial.

The ICE agent responsible is still not behind bars for murder. One person is dead in Minneapolis. How many more?

@reikomurakami.bsky.social I want to share a favorite artist of mine with you—Trina Schart Hyman. I think her charactesrs feel wonderfully grounded and real

(Waves artist flag proudly)

It’s New Year’s resolution time as usual. It’s actually more somber reminder to myself not to lose my own voice over the worries of reception. It’s important to me to make honest pieces—not necessarily the art I like to consume as a viewer.
