Today's actual mood.

Trump regime forces brutally beat Americans in the streets of Chicago for witnessing their neighbours be kidnapped and disappeared in broad daylight. Concerned citizens stood up for themselves as the regime continues to expand its fascist terror campaign.

Found out that Spotify is running ICE recruitment ads, if you need another reason to quit using it.

My most recent book cover project!

lászló krasznahorkai described in details, UNPROVOKED i might add, how he'd be 'tortured & killed by Arabs' while discussing his Jewish heritage. he went out of his way to share his vile anti-muslim & anti-arab racism, knowing the impact this would have. 🖕🏿 him & as always 🖕🏿the nobel prize

Someone asked me couple weeks ago if I used AI to create book cover art for a new project. Mind you, this person has known me, as a multimedia artist, for ~26 years. Ofc I was fking insulted & shocked. That's the shittiest thing you can say to an artist who's spent a lifetime developing their craft.

Look at my babies. LOOK AT THEM

Found this old unfinished piece of my lil Klip Dagga witch deep in my procreate stacks. I kinda love her. What should I do with her? #illustration #illustrator #klipdagga #witch

JUST LOOK AT HIM He’s been following us around all morning and this is the one we’re gonna tame, I feel it in my bones

Hey, squirrelfriend

Concept/practice sketches for an upcoming set of book covers I’m working on. Hands are hard, but it turns out drawing masc figures is even harder (for me). My men all come out looking like Kardashians fresh from the salon at first go. #booksky #illustration #illustrator #sketches

A Tennessee woman is studying to be a nurse and works nights cleaning buildings. ICE recently deported her husband, leaving her alone with three kids and another child on the way. She's about to lose her car and home. Would you consider donating to help? www.gofundme.com/f/urgent-hel...

As if COBRA pricing wasn't predatory enough (congrats for being newly unemployed, here's your $1000/mo premium), Wex, the company that handles cobra payments, charges a $20 fee for every single transaction. Fuck all these people and fuck this system.

JOIN MOTHERS FOR THE SECOND ANNUAL MOTHER'S DAY ACTION AND SPIRITUAL EVENT! 📍Saturday, May 10th for a rally at 3PM with impacted mothers from across the state 📍Sunday, May 11th, Mother's Day, at 10:30AM for a spiritual service

A federal judge in Maryland has extended a ban preventing the Education Department from sharing data containing personally identifiable information with Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency.

Lots of talk on “law and order,” and “tough on crime” legislation, from both sides of ‘the aisle’. Why? As @prisonpolicy.bsky.social reports: 💣 Crime rates are *historically* low 💣 3/4 of all jail bookings are for *nonviolent* charges 💣 3/4 of people in jail have *not* been convicted of a crime

BREAKING: US President Trump has signed an order reversing sanctions imposed by the Biden administration on Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank. 🔴 LIVE updates ⤵️

Please stop telling me that crime must be deterred. Studies have shown over and over again that in the context of criminal law, deterrence theory is a myth. It doesn't work. It never has. That's a copaganda myth. Poverty is the cause of most crime. Eliminate poverty, and you eliminate most crime.

🚨Mutual aid for Black Angelenos displaced by the fires:

waaaaay too many people in the middle imo

I stand by this.

for the potato fears not death

I had a dream last night that someone scolded me for not adding alt text to my star photos so I logged on this morning to apologize. Turns out it was a just a visit from the ghost of Christmas future, the final holiday boss. I’ll change my ways, I swear.

Every so often a client ignores me and talks with the police because they're convinced they can just clear things up and EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. it makes things worse and EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. it's "that's not what I said though" and "but they lied to me." DON'T TALK TO COPS WITHOUT YOUR LAWYER. EVER.

It doesn’t even seem like real life sometimes

“Palestinian medics said eight people, including children, were killed in the Musa Bin Nusayr School that sheltered displaced families in Gaza City.” This has become a regular occurrence that barely elicits a shrug.

"Okay, get some snaps of that Mangione character, but you better not pull any bullshit where he looks like the subject in a 16th century painting called 'Christ taken at the Garden of Gethsemane'." "Okay, now don't be mad but..."
