A year ago today, we had a really terrible election night, and because I know how people fall into despair I sat down at 11pm and wondered what I could tell you. I told you:

Oooh love a good QOL update!* I'd been wanting this feature Procreate has #clipstudiopaint #csp www.clipstudio.net/en/dl/releas... I generally hate updating. Usually screws things up → hours of work-time lost to fixing. Thus, getting July update in November xD *On that note, our new Mayor too 😄🎉

Whew, this is a tough one! I've been digging into this today and haven't definitively made up my mind, but here are a few resources to consider... 🧵

Friends in NYC, please do EVERYTHING you can to help get out the vote for Mamdani. Cuomo will throw the door wide open for the ICE Gestapo. Sign up to canvass for Mamdani here: www.zohranfornyc.com/gotv?r=uf_Vq...

It is that time. 🍂 #Goblincore

Since we can’t rely on the HHS, CDC, or FDA to say it, I will: MAKE SURE YOU ARE VACCINATED AGAINST MEASLES. GET YOUR MMR. Measles cases have reached their HIGHEST point since the disease WAS ELIMINATED from the United States in 2000. We are at the tipping point for the return of ENDEMIC measles.

My thoughts on the gen ai normalization I've been seeing recently:

OMG THAnk YOU @procreate.com ! Lasso. Fill. Planned!!!!!!!!! 😍 folio.procreate.com/discussions/...

🇵🇱🇷🇺🇧🇾🇺🇦President Zelenskyy: Since 1 am, our military tracked the movement of Russian drones toward the Polish border. This was not an accident or a mistake, it was deliberate. Russia used both Ukrainian and Belarusian territory to enter Polish airspace.

So anyway I got dog a new headband.

Obviously, there's bigger news happening right now, but Senate Republicans just voted against releasing the Epstein files. Every Democrat voted to release them. Susan Collins was the deciding vote to protect Trump and others named in the files.

Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

You also need to say this shit when people get fired for mentioning their personal gender or get roughed up for looking at ICE the wrong way. Come the fuck on. If you believe this, believe it for everyone.

PSA: The fact that RFK Jr doesn’t believe that healthy children need the COVID19 booster doesn’t change the fact that previously healthy children are continuing to have devastating outcomes from COVID19 infections.

Ukraine's air force has warned Poland that Russian drones have entered its air space and Zamosc is under threat, Reuters reports.

Poland has the luxury of a NATO-protected airspace — Ukraine doesn't. As a result, multiple Ukrainian cities have been struck tonight, including Lviv.

04:09 in Ukraine. More drones are coming. Lviv, please stay in the shelter.

OMG THAnk YOU @procreate.com ! Lasso. Fill. Planned!!!!!!!!! 😍 folio.procreate.com/discussions/...

Just some hungry chickadees I drew for a Nature article D: share.google/images/v3VFN... www.nature.com/articles/d41... #SciArt #graphics #neuroscience #chickadees 🧪 🐦 🧠

In Florida alone, a 15% decline in vaccinations against measles over 25 years would lead to 1 million measles cases. www.cnn.com/2025/09/09/h...

xD this is what I do to overcome this problem. PureRef. It's the best.

As a former acrylics-enjoyer & hater of oils & watercolor, I think I'll probably like acrylic gouache. But still wonder if I should buy like 1 "real" gouache tube just to see... Ya know, to torture myself a bit 😂

ヤッホー Japan! I'd love to visit again someday. Even if I can't for now, at least my art can travel there via Newton（ニュートン）magazine! 👋 #3Dart #SciArt #illustration #physics 🧪 🐡 ⚛️ 🔭

Your reminder that 99.99% of the artists you interact with are sustained by a second job or spouse/family, and followers do not actually translate directly to dollars

I have a pet pigeon. Sort of. Idk why, this pigeon likes the tiniest windowsill I have. & I hear it every time it lands — nay, CRASHES — there, awkwardly & clumsily 😂 So I go over to the window and we look at one another momentarily. I sigh, "Hey man" ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

My current obsessions rn are US history and precolonial Philippines history. Recently learned that some tribes in precolonial Philippines normalized and endeared woman, gender fluidity, and even had 5+ genders before Spanish colonizers enforced the binary “standard” and patriarchy.

Classic example of "a fine is permission for the rich." Haven't bothered signing up for the class action because this is just an incredibly cheap rate to pay for the source material they intend to then use to generate endless derivative profit-making works in perpetuity.

🚨 UPDATE on the current COVID vaccine access situation in the US. Please note that this is based on state laws but different things may be happening on the ground, and some pharmacies are defaulting to federal guidelines instead of state laws.

I'm late to the party but 1. the phrase "clanker slop" is very funny 2. 🥹🤭:

Another example of civil society censoring itself, creating a simulacrum of normality when things are not normal

Nice. Was about to ask what (/if /anything) Hochul is doing in NY but google exists: www.governor.ny.gov/news/governo... 👍💉😷

Our lab at Yale literally studies government suppression of outbreak reporting. Please: don't promote unverifiable reports from anonymous accounts. They're very likely to be false, and it boosts unreliable actors. (If this is happening, I suspect CDC sources know how to text a journalist just fine.)

RFK Jr. rolled out that old chestnut again about how healthy Americans were in the 60’s, so here’s a fact check. In 1965: -42% of American adults smoked; it’s 11% now. -The infant morality rate was 24.7/1000; it’s 5.6/1000 now. -Overall life expectancy was 70 years; it's about 77 years now.

Such beautiful piece of art that we were proud to have accompany a @knowablemag.bsky.social article. Hooray for artists! And hooray for the great taste of our treasure of an art director, Lisa Modica. 🧪

WARNER: Do you accept the fact that 1 million Americans died from covid? RFK Jr: I don't know how many died W: You're the secretary of health and human services. You don't have any idea how many Americans died from covid? RFK Jr: I don't think anybody knows that W: How can you be that ignorant?
