they're shooting us in the face, ted

Yes! Please read "ONE DAY, EVERYONE WILL HAVE ALWAYS BEEN AGAINST THIS" by Omar El Akkad

I see @kentuckylantern.com on here. I would LOVE to see my employer join, too.

This is such an immediate, profound and compelling truth that sometimes I think that we are terrified that everyone doesn't see. But like pro-wrestling, everybody knows it's fake. Everybody knows.

Did I ever tell y’all why I chose the name Murphy?

every trans suicide is a murder every trans murder is a policy consequence and the bodies keep piling up as the elected officials who today tell us they care about us — ALL of them. — still label the hate against us as a “distraction” sorry, the funeral i went to last week was not a distraction

Plugging my website here - if you are in need of comms support ahead of the KY or IN General Assembly I am still available to contract during session 2026. Formerly MeadorMade Creative, I’m now pivoting to a focus on wider array communications services. www.murphymeador.com

Things are really starting to take shape for me lately.

It’s gotta be a sign of the times that I can find thousands of housing and disability advocacy groups but I can’t find a single nonprofit providing direct service. All those donor dollars tied up in advocacy and I can’t get a disabled person housed. Fools.

It’s not about being on a high horse it’s about using these moments of frustration and crisis and rupture to help people understand how the system works so they get out of their delusional frame of mind

When you see a smart person thoroughly invested in repeatedly misunderstanding something important, understand that it’s not so much about their capacity to comprehend. Their ignorance is a tool to discipline & control the thoughts and actions YOU are allowed to have.

This is the right way to do it, folks. Meet people where they are with real, tangible, practical representation.

I’m obsessed with these lil cats.

Cute lil work things 🫏

be very careful about what you post online

Just going to be honest: TERFism has progressed so fully in the UK that it's all but completely captured its entire pool of artistic labor. These people don't simply want a check, they've been intellectually subverted by the 24/7 derangement engine working up there. This is a generational defeat

Firing your entire staff with no notice is not aligned with Reproductive Justice and is actually shameful as fuck.

The bus stop at 8am is too goddamn early for people to be transphobic to me. Goddamn.

a 800-day weekend could fix me

Chappell Roan of Harlan, KY y’all.

Picture me, curled up in my jammies, face aglow in the dark by the light of my phone, just grinding my teeth. Every goddamn night, grinding my teeth. Always in anxious anticipation that the work, all this work, might pay off and the scales will begin to tip so that one day we all might rest.

I’m side-eyeing anyone who hates Benson Boone but loves Taylor Swift.

I’ve never forgotten this picture from 2016 and how it completely reshaped my understanding of how the media covers protests.

Direct action > dissent.

We feed you. They hunt us.

I don't care what people on the street did or didn't do, I dont care who did or didn't engage in violence, I don't care whether you approve or not. ICE is having a hard time conducting raids, and *that* is the point. All the rest is noise. Serve the people, always. www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

Organizations whose primary function is to uphold the “good parts” of status quo aught to just quietly dissolve and redistribute their hoarded wealth to grassroots community care efforts.

In an unprecedented move, US Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. removed all 17 members of the CDC's expert panel of vaccine advisers, citing conflicts of interest. cnn.it/4mYohFy

Finished this one up last night. (Might still do some touch-ups) 20x50cm, ink and watercolor on paper. #art #abstract #ink #watercolor #stippling

Dems are quiet quitting democracy.

I designed a t-shirt that provides funding for trans health and abortion access direct support in Kentucky. You can order one, look cool, support trans youth, make me smile, and make Lindsay Tichenor sad all in one go! www.bonfire.com/t-shirts-for... T-Shirts for KY Trans Kids | Bonfire

Harassing trans people on June the first in the year 2025 is certainly a choice.

I think I am back on my “gonna go be hot and buff and work at Home Depot and throw lumber around” bullshit. I never want to work with liberals again and that seems like the place.

Can we please start calling them weird again please?

Liberals are a scourge upon this earth from which we may never recover ✨✌️

They are starving and burning them alive. If you can materially do something to help someone fight forced starvation you should.

The man of the house is actually the first born daughter & no I will not explain.
