self portrait

the most important person in the world

Goober Grove - Garage Razzlyn sees the inside of Rosco's garage.

Alice Wong helped me accept my disabilities. She taught me there’s no social justice without disability justice. She encouraged me to start The Disabled Ginger and was a friend & mentor. She won’t be forgotten. Don’t let the bastards grind you down: www.disabledginger.com/p/thank-you-...

Looking at these pictures of Ruby Bridges, and thinking about how moving it is to see how tiny and vulnerable she is. And, I'm thinking about our language and culture around trauma, and how on a personal level it often feels lacking for me.

Stop using the word "woke" the way white conservatives do. "Staying woke" just means to be aware of the ways structural inequality and police violence harm Black (and sometimes other oppressed) communities. The term you all want is "politically correct"

Still can’t believe the “dark” in “tall, dark, and handsome” refers to dark coloured hair, not the person being melanated.

Enraging news from Samaa, whose GFM fundraiser has been terminated on let's say very shaky grounds... please support her new campaign in any way you can 💕💸🍉

This vote has not happened yet. Call your Senators, especially your Democratic Senators, and tell them that a deal without protection NOW for health insurance tax credits is unacceptable.

Regardless of fox’s actual rabies status. This is your reminder vaccinate for rabies. Always. Even if indoor only. The ONLY way to test for rabies is euthanize the animal and remove brain tissue. There is no live test for rabies and your state/local health department will not play

From a Peul wedding custom, Henna Time is a special occasion for the bride to celebrate her new married life and be surrounded by her close ones. Applying henna is believed to bring luck, happiness and prosperity to her marriage. A symbol of protection and blessing, Mimi is all set to get married!🤍👰🏾‍♀️

Goober Grove - Expected Value Rosco gives his two cents on the discontinuation of the penny.

Were you wondering what Xavier and Zuri look like without their eyewear? Well now you know! #screenshotsaturday #magicalgirlshadowangel #visualnovel #gamedev

The popular untouchable love interest can be a dark skinned black girl, why not? The guy girls always fawn over can be black, the kid that's likely to somehow invent time travel causing a weird loop episode can be black.

"Black people just move to a Blue State" is such out of touch bullshit. And what about the Indigieous folks or the Chicanx folks? We just leave them behind to suffer while we have to deal with the passive aggressive anti-Blackness that Blue states are known for?

Target, who openly fucked over black & queer people for a few bucks, is offering a Thanksgiving meal for 4 people for $20. Aldi, who pays employees well and hasn't given a red cent to Trump or various PACS, has a Thanksgiving meal for 10 people for $40. It's not a hard choice. FUCK Target.

they were too late. #art #oc #originalcharacter

Dick Cheney going to hell and Zohran Mamdani getting elected on the same day are a win in my book.

ART TRAIN 🚂🚋🚋 Share 4 artworks and tag 4 (or more) people! @mp-doodles.bsky.social @alexwd.bsky.social @frimpys.bsky.social @animatedaf.co.uk @kaporiknight.bsky.social

I’m going to keep mentioning how heavily people leaned on the “actually, poor Black people don’t go to elite schools, we need more investment at the community level” argument when affirmative action was before the court, and how fucking silent they are now.

go out and vote today and make sure you vote for Mamdani on the WFP line!!! Send a message to the DNC about what values people want from their elected officials!!!

almost done (?)

It’s truly tragic how many of these US war criminals like Cheney never face justice and die in their peacefully in their homes in their 80s and 90s. I want to be happy he is dead but I am not. The million people he killed didnt get the luxury to die how he did.

Oh my GOD I’m so anxious about Seattle’s mayoral election today, Bruce Harrell absolutely CANNOT be let near the levers of power EVER again and Katie Wilson has campaigned on personally improving my most-used bus line (and also rocks on a bunch of other stuff) if you live in Seattle GO VOTE

Democrats fuckin love losing, man. Winning is bad for their brand

So many people were detained extrajudicially, were tortured, or died because of Dick Cheney. You can't get to the danger we're in now without everything he did. The weapons he helped forge are ones we need to take away from U.S. presidents forever.

Watercolor and marker fan art of my new favorite witch-in-training/magic girl Tammy from The Three Tomes, a wonderful new indie animatic pilot by @breanimator.bsky.social and team @thethreetomes.bsky.social Witches, vampires... Go watch it now youtu.be/5fXFD58D51A

anyone of any race can make any kind of OC provided they contribute some kind of thought to the cultures/ethnic makeups they're borrowing from, but seeing people with black ocs who just post them getting fucked and hyping up how sexy they are all day make me feel like i'm covered in slime kinda

Duty or Rebellion ⚔️

I'm a black & indigenous (Powhatan/ Nanticoke) artist based in Philly! I am physically and mentally disabled, and could use help w/ bills, meds, and groceries! I also do commissions! bsky.app/profile/simp... Ko-fi.com/Simplynovology Cash.app/Simplynovology Paypal.me/Simplynovology

Hey so if this is true I'm cancelling my Fortnite subscription and uninstalling the game. I encourage anyone else who cares about trans people to do the same

Goober Grove - Circadian Rhythm Georgetta wakes up at a weird time.

Great idea - Los Angeles friends: please consider giving to the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank www.lafoodbank.org - more than a million people in LA County receive benefits from CalFresh (it’s how CA implements SNAP)! And friends elsewhere, please re-post with info about your local food pantry.

Um, I know there's a million crowdfunds right now, but I struggle to put it into words how much I need this to stay alive. www.gofundme.com/f/urgent-sup...
