Betty Reid Soskin, the National Park Service’s oldest ranger, has died. She was 104.

Chicago is having none of this administration's BS.

Yeah, you are.

Thankful for these guys.

Neighborhood walk in Ashland, Oregon.

Freshly chilled #iprotest from October, featuring Day & Collins 40L French Antique Elongated. #letterpress #woodtype

Oh wow

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

Printed for studio tours last weekend, ready to rally tomorrow. See you there! #nokings

Me in my happy place last year.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

Louche Lothario? or Power Flower Salesman? This Biedermeier Beau is taking care of all of these posies for you... With a few emergency blooms in reserve for another customer! Olin Library at #WashU, glimpsed during the #movablebooksociety conference!

Since January I’ve been printing a monthly protest poster utilizing and documenting the wood type in my collection. The barrage of news is unrelenting, but for August I wanted to focus on the continuing and horrifying genocide in Gaza.

This cause is close to my heart - please sign: sign.moveon.org/petitions/we...

Thousands of women are sharing this and saying yes, this was their experience, many of them sharing their own horrific 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s experiences. (And almost everyone sharing it appears to be female.)

Pritzker is giving real "lawn chair in a parking spot on a snow day in Chicago" energy.

From a letter mailed in 1978, stamps with the message:

A little classic Cunk, in honor of America's birthday.

Quote by civil rights activist Fannie Lou Hamer. Printed with 20L Gothic Shaded, worried sick about our country (and every dog on this ridiculous holiday). #iprotest #woodtype #fannielouhamer #woodtypespecimen

30L Gothic for the June specimen. No thrones, no crowns, no kings. Rise up! #iprotest #nokings #woodtype #letterpress #pride🌈

Men are too emotional to hold positions of power

Today’s the big day for our son Sylvan who has been working on his Lego build ‘Outbreak at Z Corp’ for the last several months and is displaying it at the Bricks Cascade Lego Expo this weekend. Of course we would end up in the post-apocalyptic theme 😀 So proud of him! With @abel-kloster.bsky.social

Recovering from dental surgery, and healing with new books from @blackbirdletterpress.com, Jim Grieshaber, and Gaby Bazin. All highly recommended, and exceedingly therapeutic. #letterpress #bookarts #printerslibrary

Apparently some people are interested in having a baby boom right now. We took to Abigail Adams’s (a revolutionary among revolutionaries) girlhood home with a few ideas of what might help make that happen; basically, respect women.

Trump fired the Librarian of Congress without cause! Send an email to your representative to stop Trump's attack on the Library of Congress. action.everylibrary.org/emailhayden via @everylibrary.bsky.social

Seriously, babe.

Getting ready for the Tacoma Wayzgoose this weekend, woth our Make Some Noise theme. Fabulous worm gear by Three Cheers Press provides the rockin’ rainbow roll. #letterpress #tacomawayzgoose #woodtype #tacomaarts #tightblend

Whirlwind of workshops this summer at Penland, SFCB, and Maine Media. Come join us! #letterpress #bookarts

Patty. Take care of your own unjustly incarcerated people. Tacoma awaits your arrival.

If you're truly with him, Senator Murray, you need to go to Tacoma and demand that 25 year old labor organizer Alfredo "Lelo" Juarez be released after being kidnapped with no criminal record from Skagit County while driving his wife to work. labornotes.org/blogs/2025/0...

Delighted to share this project in collaboration with C.C. Stern Type Foundry, the sixth print in the PNW Poets Laureate series. Washington Poet Laureate Emerita Elizabeth Austen joins us for the broadside launch on Saturday, April 19 at the Longview Public Library from 4 to 5:30. #letterpress

The trillium this year are robust. Don’t need no trillionaires.

Beautiful walk through Central Park. #monumentalwomen

"The [Bainbridge] Review was the only newspaper on the coast to repeatedly remind its readers that the Bill of Rights had been violated for some of its neighbors. At the time, few had the courage of their convictions." www.historylink.org/File/3111

"Let's not take the soul-sucking path of sacrificing the most persecuted for that which we deem to be most popular. I know that there are transgender children right now looking out at this world and wondering if anyone is going to stand up for them and for their simple right to exist. Well, I am."

First pass of a broadside printed from a Gomuban plate I carved, inspired by irises in my yard. Two more passes to go, this is one of a series of poetry broadsides pairing WA and OR poet laureates and printers for CC Stern Type Foundry. #letterpress #broadsides

@podsaveamerica.crooked.com Could you guys do an episode asap about the upcoming April 5 protests? Here in MA, Srn. Markey has called for 100000 people to gather on Boston Common that day! Maybe you could interview him.

Curious about the history of printing, from pre-Gutenberg to the present, and would like a book that offers a thorough but concise rundown? You can get a copy of Six Centuries of Type & Printing in a Kickstarter campaign I launched just now! www.kickstarter.com/projects/gle...

We’ve got so many good classes coming up at Community Print! Here are the next two. Please share with your PNW/Puget sound area friends. More info: www.community-print.org/classes
