betrayed by admin pumping school (often public) $ into grifter bubble corporate welfare, disgusted by colleagues shamelessly cheating - BUT buoyed by the students, who still want to learn, with their own big brains

God I relate to this.

There have been fascist adjacent elements in the USA for decades. Now it’s straight up fascism, they don’t even hid it, they celebrate it.

Single payer now

It's honestly wild that all the people who spent years, more than a decade actually, losing their mind over "cancel culture" are now making parody of the excess of peak PC cancellations and at breakneck speed

This data was paid for by the public and therefore it is free for scientists, artists, and anyone else to use, at least for the time being.

It was created in part with publicly available governmental geospatial data. Specifically, The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Minnesota Wetlands dataset and The Minnesota Geospatial Information Office Lidar Elevation dataset.

I cannot help but connect its irony to my feelings about parenthood. Bounty and scarcity, joy and fear, inevitable unpredictable change. This is the seed that created this body of work.

If you’re wondering a bit about the work…I commute to Northfield MN everyday and I spend time thinking about this strange land that is both full of fresh water and drought prone. There issomething nonsensical about it to me.

I.C.E. Can fuck right off.

Any other dyslexic parents getting owned by Dr Seuss? I swear I could read aloud from Ulysses more easily than Fox in Socks.

Trying not to dwell too much on my misspent 20s as I still qualify for “early career” opportunities in my middle age.

Twin cities people. Please come see a new body of work I was lucky enough to make as one of the Jerome residents at Highpoint Center for Printmaking. There is a show opening June 13 I would love to see you. The other two residents Nancy Ariza and Emma Ulen-Klees have made beautiful work. Come see!

This is absolutely categorically an ethnic cleansing and sending people to Libya of all places is unconscionable.

I was lucky enough to receive a Jerome Residency from Highpoint Center From Printmaking this year. I am currently wrapping up this new body of work and getting pretty excited to share it with the Twin Cities next month. Here is a little detail shot of a newly finished piece.

“Maha” is such a crock of shit if this program existed when I was growing up I would still have a bunch more friends. People will die because of this and quickly

They're abducting people for the suspected views of their spouses in the middle of fucking Georgetown

Yes Chuck blame republicans for not standing up to trump when you the leader of the “opposition” won’t even stand up. Feckless cowards, the lot of them.

Terrible week. My dog was paralyzed and had surgery and then all… this shit. Letterpressing my anxiety away on my lunch breaks.

I guess I use my lunch breaks to letterpress posters now.
