Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

I can see the RETRO-FUTURE-NOSTALGIA style fading. I am not ready for it.

Can New Mexico borrow him?

I want everyone (EVERYONE) who wears Meta AI glasses branded as a creep and weirdo (bad weirdo as opposed to good one) and publicly shamed. We did it with Google glass, we can do it again

Gonna go die now... or as normies say, "Hit the Gym!"

Red Hat: "Our Jesus God Trump Savior never said that!" Guy: *shows video of trump saying that. Red Hat: "How do you know that's not AI?" Guy: *stops breathing to avoid sharing the same air

WARNING to digital artists: CREATIVE FABRICA is a predatory site preying on artists just looking to explore new tools. I signed up for a free trial only to be charged $47 for full access. I don't even have $47 in my bank account. (cont.)

Silence on this app is deafening.

Tomorrow at the UNM Gallup campus, I’ll be making my final in-person appearance (provided my vehicle holds together). Fret not tho, because @kaylawayla20.bsky.social will be in attendance to take the cool factor up several notches. Cheers to ya. #gallupnewmexico #universityofnewmexico

You're mad at me because you're not cool with my rates? Maybe just move on to the next starving artist, damn.

Come see me and @kaylawayla20.bsky.social arm wrestle for the title of "Master of Indigenous Comics". Winner goes home with a cupcake... I think.

This barrier is a plot point (after a fashion, and, do nonfiction OGNs have plots?) in @daleraydeforest.bsky.social’s and my upcoming book. So cool! www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/a...

Facebook & Instagram kicking rocks in #NewMexico will be a GOOD THING. I will miss the Marketplace, but won't miss the wall-to-wall FLAKES. #FuckZuck

I love The Smiths' How Soon Is Now? But it sounds so much better with ANY other singer than Morrisey. If I wanna hear a grown man cry to the sound of Generation X regret, I'll mount a mirror in my shower.

I rented a room from a greedy, selfish, insecure stoner woman back in 2001. I caught her loudly sniffing the clothes in my closet and would rifle through my stuff when I wasn't there. The last straw was when I caught her climbing out from beneath my bed at 3am.

The only thing I feel shame over is the fact I don't have enough tattoos.

Man, not Gerry Conway too. Damn.

OMG. What will trumpy think of next.

I agree with the sentiment, but it should say "skill" not "talent", and I think thinking of artistic skill as a "talent" contributes to people using Generative AI. "I can't make art, I wasn't born with the gift, so this let's me." Hey, ya see all these studies I do? I wasn't born paintin mozart!

email from last week... "We've been following your art journey for 2 years now and we want you to be a part of our new development. It's a fantastic new streamlined service that uses AI to..." *stops reading *deletes email

I'm back in NM. The weather is fine for now, but SHIT weather is coming. I already miss Phoenix. I might move. Who knows.

WHAT IN THE FUCKING FUCK?? youtu.be/Px49-Qe42Vg?...

My terribly faithful and dedicated wife is set up at the Arizona Asian Festival in Glendale at the Desert Diamond Casino. Her and a bunch of other dedicated artisans are braving this early Arizona Desert Heat trying to make a buck in this shitty economy that just shit itself in our laps.

Worst year ever to try and vend at an outdoor event. Yes, I blame Trump.

I'd rather see what is left of the white house burned to the ground and completely rebuilt from scratch. The stain this scum has left is never going away.

Difference between free thinkers and red hats, some of us don't take bullets for people who'd fucked around and are finding out. Fuck him, good riddance. youtu.be/GeovYrkzHrc?...

My 12yo boy and I watch this movie at least once a week and have the soundtrack in a spotify playlist. Both he and I are very much in love with KPop Demon Hunters and can't wait for its sequel.

Welcoming Home The Astronauts. #Artemis2 #Artemis #Integrity youtu.be/tyzNdFulUJ4?...

I'm just deleting a bunch of posts. Removing any future incriminating bullshit. No one is paying attention anyway.

Look at this fucking Patreon post I made. Or not, fuck it. over 1600 followers and not a fucking millimeter of traction.

Had to.

He’s back y’all. He ain’t happy. #jesus #easter #resurrection

Worst Star Wars film ever. Zero lightsabers, shitty Darth Maul, not even any star ships. #darthmaul #shadowlord #insideous #insideous2 #insideous3

It's not a cry for help if you know no one is coming.

If'n shit sucks, listen to MACHO for a sec. youtube.com/shorts/3A1WV...

Helloooo spring in #NewMexico!

My Patreon is in desperate need of some traction. So to keep it juicy, here's a free post. www.patreon.com/posts/rider-...

I had hoped to one day meet him. This is just awful.

Am I already shadowbanned on this app? Do I need to start using #hashtags again?

Left my doctor's office but not before hearing Corey Hart's "Sunglasses At Night", specifically the CHORUS. Quite possibly the WORST song to get stuck in my head at that moment. The lyrics... what and why?

Rough day today. Saw my therapist and unloaded an hour long rant about how I don't deserve to be happy, to feel good, to have what I need... much less have what I want after discovering what I want has nothing to do with me ...riddled with crippling self doubt, and my endless financial disasters.

Anyways.

I'm not sure about this branding but I'm not the billionaire business genius

I dunno what the point would be anymore, but here's my PATREON. Maybe help me figure out what I'm doing wrong. patreon.com/daledeforest...

Pow Wow Samurai? What in the…

Because we need some beauty to combat this daily destruction and pain. At least I think my work can be beautiful at times.
