Barkley L. Hendricks’s Studio Was a Wonderland of Inspiration A photo book documenting the late artist’s colorful, cluttered studio shows an amalgamation of decades’ worth of inspiration.

This is an amazing book created by Susan Hendricks and David Katzenstein. I am very lucky to have visited the Hendricks home on multiple occasions, both while Barkley was still with us and after.

Shameless legislators in Raleigh are abusing their power to take away yours. You, the voters, should choose your representatives – not the other way around.

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.

Pay attention and act!

North Carolina! We NEED y’all to be loud on this one with us. Join us as the legislature returns to raleigh not to pass a budget, but instead gerrymander North Carolina more to give Trump another congressional seat. ⬇️

So hold on, we’re supposed to believe that the Democrats forged Trump’s birthday drawing to Epstein 22 years ago, put it in a leather binder & had it seized during his first term, so they could bring it out AFTER he won reelection for his second term?

Are you fucking kidding me?

People from all over are showing up for DC. This is not a moment. It’s a movement. We are united in our demands. We are all DC! #FreeDC

Dem NC House Candidates who need primary opponents in 2026:
Shelley Willingham (23rd)
Carla Cunningham (106th)

I’ve seen firsthand @roycoopernc.bsky.social courage, strong moral center, & passion for bettering the lives of all North Carolinians. His leadership brought NC out of a dark place & made people proud of our state again.

I couldn’t be more proud to share the ticket with him. Let’s do this!

Mary Kay Heling told members of Congress today about being among 65,000 North Carolina voters unjustly challenged by losing candidate Jefferson Griffin and expressed concerns about the Justice Department questioning registration of 200,000 NC voters. Thanks to Mary Kay for speaking up for voters!

Congrats Jeff! @zentronix.bsky.social

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

CBS to Cancel ‘Late Show With Stephen Colbert’ Citing ‘Financial Decision’ CBS said it planned to cancel Stephen Colbert's Late Show after next season, citing the weakening finances of late night

Devastating. variety.com/2025/tv/news...

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

A financial decision for year after next. Please.
