If folks need guidance on how to do alt text, I've put together this collection of best practice guides to make it pretty easy. (Hints: the goal isn't to describe everything in the image, alt text should usually only be a sentence or two long, and it matters where you're sharing the image and why.)

ICE recruitment is going well.

Wise insight, and excellent advice. Power is not the property of any individual actor; it's a relation and dynamic among actors.

Because caregiving & sick leave disproportionately fall on mothers, especially single mothers, making schools & daycares safer through clean air & normalized masking is an essential part of any serious gender equity agenda

oh to be as beautiful as a cat

There should be public dialogue from Dem leaders about what the medium-long term political strategy against Trumpism is. They don't want impeachment (not enough votes) so what can a Dem congress do that's more effective? Is there a philosophy other than "Vote for us and hope something good happens?"

I’ve been using Kagi for three years as of today, it remains one of the best changes to my online habits. Even without its various features, it is fantastic to use a search engine that works like a search engine is supposed to. Everyone who actually tries it on my suggestion has loved it

A message below from my friend Tasneem in Gaza. The displaced civilians lack aid, adequate medical services and the ability to work. They rely on our donations. Please give to Tasneem so she can take care of herself and her family. And to others. ❤️ chuffed.org/project/1587...

This reflects a deep politics directly opposed to the neoliberal sensibility, asserting that it is right and necessary for the state to provide material support for •everyone•, to enable vibrant piblic spaces.

it really clicked when I learned that some of those high-profile 1990s militias were specifically and almost exclusively opposed to the fed govt that added the 13th, 14th, 15th, and 20th amendments to the constitution

Especially in a time when any kind of porn or smut you like exists, and is put into the world by consensually participating, paid adults, you have to assume the non-consensual element is the key. Which makes this entirely a form of sexual abuse.

I don’t even know how to respond to this. I have a pretty liberal view of being honest about your desires. But the level of fucked up you have to be to say “take this normal photo of a woman (or child) and non-consensually make her look naked and beaten” is beyond my comprehension.

Every day people log onto god's green internet and pretend Robert Evans said something he clearly didn't

We are now up to fifteen clear calls for impeachment. Rep. Robin Kelly IL-02 Rep. Maxine Dexter OR-03 Rep. Chellie Pingree ME-01 Rep. Melanie Stansbury NM-01 Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove CA-37 Rep. Kevin Mullin CA-15 Rep. Emily Randall WA-06 Rep. Sarah McBride DE-AL Rep. Juan Vargas CA-52 1/2

ICE is NOT psychotic. they are hateful, fascist, evil, horrible, motherfuckers. but they are not /psychotic/. people who are actually psychotic., i.e. lost in a world of hallucination and delusion and confusion, are some of the MOST at risk of being murdered by law enforcement

incredibly fucking based. big ups to the Episcopalians.

In light of what happened to Renee Good, I thought it important to reiterate my grandmother's advice.

every few months I have to go to twitter to see some video or prominent person's post that isn't anywhere else, and I find that a lot of you are still posting there. anyway, it's not ok that you are doing that, no you are not the exception, fucking stop posting there

Wear N95 respirators to protests; don’t let a cop give you COVID ✊🏻

The doctor who was prevented from administering aid was indeed a medical doctor. He doesn't wish to speak to the media but I know his identity and can confirm the person who tried to help Renee Good and was prevented to by ICE is indeed an internal medicine doctor in Minnesota.

this is some of the best legal advice you will ever read

"Leftists have trouble w nuance" Is it leftists who have trouble or is it just a thing a lot of people are bad at

insane that people r more willing to believe that the covid VACCINE is what is mass disabling people and not the fucking covid itself i stfg i hate this country so much you people are irredeemably stupid

The guy who first dressed as Portland Frog, a major symbol of our protest and then other national protests, has been arrested while peacefully protesting. Prints of this painting by Simran Gleason are being sold to support his defense. www.simrangleason.com/prints/p/por... #pdx #protest

an american city is fully under siege by an occupying army that is supposedly an arm of its own government that army has already shot someone dead and is repeatedly threatening to do the same to anyone upset about its actions intolerable situation

Anyone who would like to help a poor, constantly facing housing insecurity, indigenous and disabled artist from the global south, Id love any relief. I have no thyroid + chronic heart issues, will DIE without maintenance medication. Plz buy my prints!! I have links below

you’re already ahead. stay with it. minneapolis stripped these forces of legitimacy (a battle other cities won’t have to repeat). remember they are completely outmanned. their only real advantage is their organizational capacity. out-organize them & the illusion of control will collapse.

I'm trying to find a series of toys from the late 90s/early 2000s that I was obsessed with and my god it's impossible

Republicans somehow managed to sprint from “we’re trying to protect women in sports” straight to defending a woman being shot in the head three times at point blank range for trying to drive away from a masked thug.

Photos of the Day: a two-spot octopus in motion These and all photos on the repository are free-to-use for artists creating derivative/transformative works (sans AI).

There’s this kind of holier-than-thou tendency to dismiss people’s observations of the world coming apart at the seams by referencing past evils and derisively sneering, “Where have you been?/You’re just now noticing this?” that I think is almost never constructive or helpful.

Happy lap loaf. ❤️ I love that someone felt the need to capture this moment. Photo from my collection, no date/info.

You have heard of Renee Good, but may not have heard of Keith Porter, who was shot & killed by an off duty ICE agent an NYE. Our hearts are with his family & anyone impacted by ICE. Below is a GoFundMe for Keith’s daughters so please donate/share around. ICE needs to go Link: gofund.me/c2aea3587

Not quite the standard fare for the repository, but sometimes I think it's beneficial to just stare at birds. Here's a neat older clip of an American flamingo preening. Videos aren't part of the repository site, but this one is also free to use as an art reference for non-AI art.

Someone with money should send me $50k so I can make a lil video game No I don't have any experience why do you ask

SURGICAL MASKS DO NOT PROTECT So encouraging to see the sheer strength of feeling amongst so many highly-respected scientists & medical practitioners from across the world making representations to WHO This letter from World Health Network is a must-read tinyurl.com/WHN-Letter-t...

*police kill somebody* “It’s actually all of you who didn’t kill anybody who need to calm down.”

Hey folks I am looking to book work for the first couple months of the year so if you yourself or anyone you know has a project that needs some art or logo work let me know <3

I don’t think they’re misreading them so much as they are terrified of the implications because it means the status quo has to break. there’s no incrementalism for this. mass radicalization of this scale scares Democrats more than anything Republicans could do and I mean that literally.

If you're not willing to arrest the killer, don't arrest the demonstrators.

It's not just the liberal elite. It's regular people too. the cops are in everyone's heads and hearts.

My appeal to the Median Voter would be "Life is hard enough already, we don't need a shitty government that makes it worse"

it is impossible for mayors or cops to learn positive lessons about protest response because they all have two immovable beliefs: 1. it is evil and childish to hold police officers accountable for violent acts 2. cops must be present at all times during protests

I have told them what I think :) please let them know your thoughts too!

"Nice opinion, did a youtuber give it to you?" I hit reply and wait. Miles off, I hear an explosion. A direct hit. My opponent has been destroyed by my originality.

ahhhh
