If you see items in a black box like this on the Amazon app (presumably similar on desktop), do NOT use Amazon to purchase. Go to the artist's site directly to see what they actually have, buy more easily, and not support this garbage concept that big corps can scrape whatever they want.

As if artists don't have enough to deal with, Amazon has a "Buy For Me" program in beta which is scraping indie shops for their items and putting them up on Amazon (often incorrectly), for their "AI agent" to buy from the other site. It is NOT opt in, and there is no opt out.

If anyone ever wants to know what kind of Procreate brush or (for older work, paint) I used I am always happy to share. I love talking materials. I love sharing materials. Especially if means I can buy more brushes!

Here is what appears to be a legitimate article in this change and what people can do to ensure a postmark date on day of drop off. This potentially impacts you if you mail in tax returns or mail in ballots for voting. www.nstp.org/article/usps...

Boycotting is the price the board pays for suppressing marginalized voices and coddling a fascist. It's not like people will stop attending shows. They will stop attending shows at that particular location. Costco thrived while Target suffered.

“How do these things happened to you?” Babe i am from Alabama… anything that can happen will!

a man that will strangle you is a man that will kill you. this is the biggest red flag there is that a woman life is in danger.

Has anyone written the essay on how MTG’s claims of naïveté are just the latest way she is tapping into the most violent, historic elements of white women’s role in white supremacy? Because it needs to be written, and I’m busy and tired…💁🏽‍♀️

Moreover, anyone who does not realize that “pro-democracy” means “multiracial/intersectional democracy” at this point is a useless member of the team. That includes anyone who thinks someone like MTG can safely join with people she’s constantly targeted with political and structural violence.

2025 was a really weird year but happy to have made at least some personal art and so grateful for the support, especially on my debut graphic novel 💕

and if you want to know... why Donald Trump is the president It's because the Ecru measure Goodness as being able to handle snakes rather than avoid them.

I have my coffee

incidentally if you have an AI-generated image as your online avatar my baseline assumption is we disgree about labor and art and worker's rights and probably a constellation of other issues. Oh you asked a computer to fart out a cartoon selfie, cool, I bet you put the same effort into everything

In your eyes

It is WILD how people are pissed off because a random daycare - in a place where there was a school shooting less than six months ago - isn't letting random adults *with cameras* into their buildings to "see what they're doing."

I'm sure white supremacist-funded ADOS is very pleased a white supremacist is using their language against a Black man.

Debugging physics with food was the best crossover I never knew I needed This book was an inventive delight and you need it

bonus! found my 2018 Art v Artist

There was a liberal court for a few years in the mid 20th century and the right wing response was to delegitimize for DECADES right up to the point they had a supermajority, at which point it became Wrong to do so. These people think you are stupid bsky.app/profile/chri...

Every time this post comes around I have to watch it because he's a MASTER of language and delivery

“If Western so-called liberal democracy had boasted the emergence of a ‘post racial’ society, if it claimed that it was ‘law and order’ that held back the worst of its racist, fascist instincts instead of activating them, the brutal killing of George Floyd undid that claim.”

It's nasal!

Just got horrifying news about the conditions where German is being held so I'm sharing the gofundme again. Please share widely and donate if you can gofund.me/575c7a343

Chelsea's books are great, sapphic lovers!

Oh, you mean THIS masterpiece of a series? 😍📚❤️

This is one of my favorite paintings, from any painter, ever. Not only is she crushing Mein Kampf, but the arc of her rivet gun's cable also evokes a serpent being crushed under her heel - even while the rivet gun herself is laid on her apron like Christ on the lap of the Virgin Mary.

I didn't want to have to delete these sites but I can see I must.

they should invent a 2026 planner that does the things you write in them

The tech bros will do everything in their power to prevent any regulation of AI, because regulation is a pin and AI is a bubble. And they are going to make America eat that loss somehow. Even as they sit on billions.

My kitty Bean Bean passed away earlier this year but there's not a day goes by I don't think about him.

Major implications for mail-in voting (voters who are disproportionately older, white, members of the military, urban residents, and registered Democrats)

Death by design.

Maybe 15 years ago I was in Western Massachusetts with a partner who wanted to check out the Norman Rockwell Museum. I only knew of Rockwell as 1950s kitsch and had low expectations. As it happened, we showed up while an exhibit on Rockwell's Civil Rights legacy was on display. Blew my mind.

“Fuck generative AI” means exactly that. It doesn’t mean fuck it…but it’s cool if you use it for (insert thing here). It’s not about you or me; it’s about us. Writing. Painting. Music. Book covers. All of it. We stick together.

Wait. Wait WHAT. You can accidentally turn your lasagna into a three volt battery that melts aluminum. WHAT.

DNA evidence is *very* extremely conclusive. There is a problem though: even though the odds of a false match are like one in a billion, laboratory error is not. It is illegal to mention this. www.cnn.com/2024/03/09/u...

www.motherjones.com/politics/202... Pretty much all the pig procedurals you've seen for the last two decades delighted in showing you forensics that are about as real as phrenology. Millions and millions of jurors persuaded by this deliberate copaganda

Reminder that years ago it was found out that the FBI straight up made up a whole bunch of fake forensic sciences, plural. People have gone to jail and been executed due to literally pseudoscience. Hair forensics, for instance, is totally nonsense. They admitted it. slate.com/news-and-pol...
