Composite montage honoring Vonetta Flowers, pioneering Black Olympic athlete. On the left, a dynamic action shot from the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City shows Vonetta Flowers and pilot Jill Bakken in their red U.S. bobsled (#10), arms raised triumphantly in victory as they cross the finish line or celebrate on the icy track, wearing matching red, white, and blue Team USA suits, black helmets with American flag decals, black gloves, and visors reflecting the arena lights, with an American flag waving in the blurred background and Olympic rings visible on the sled. On the right, an inset portrait of Vonetta Flowers smiling warmly at the camera, a Black woman wearing a navy blue Team USA warm-up jacket with white trim and a white shirt underneath, set against a backdrop featuring a large American flag. The image celebrates her historic achievement as the first Black woman to win a Winter Olympic gold medal (in two-woman bobsled, 2002), overcoming injuries and transitioning from track & field sprinting to become an elite bobsledder.

#OTD in 2002, Vonetta Flowers became the first Black athlete to win a gold medal at a Winter Olympics (Salt Lake City). 🥇

Flowers (along with driver Jill Bakken) won the gold medal in the inaugural women's two-person bobsled event.

"I Am Frankelda" is coming to Netflix in 2026 (worldwide).
A Mexican stop-motion feature film directed by Arturo & Roy Ambriz (Studio Cinema Fantasma), prequel to their series "Frankelda's Book of Spooks".

Dark painting in classical style, depicting a woman in a white dress with her back facing the viewer, wrapped in red fabric. The face of a man peaking through the darkness, near the woman's bleeding neck.

Book mockup of the first illustration.

The Dracula cover I worked on is finally revealed.

I am very stoked about this project, because doing a cover art for a classical book is a dream I didn't know I had, and also because they agreed to have the cover art minimalistic and elegant, and I AM SO HAPPY ABOUT IT.

Zohran, if you want nyc to be a refuge, then trans ppl need their healthacare to remain. Prove to us youre not like every other dem who uses our vote and abandons us or just gives us pretty platitudes. 🏳️‍⚧️

A Gorillaz short film by The Line studio is coming on February 27 on Youtube : "The Mountain, The Moon Cave and The Sad God".

You are currently tossing homeless people out of their encampments, stripping them of their refuge.

A lot of trans kids are being abondoned *ESPECIALLY* in this political climate by their parents and forced into homelessness.

“A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is an inherently conservative story, it reflects right wing values”

Episode 1:

a man and a child sit under a tree with hbo written on the bottom right ALT: a man and a child sit under a tree with hbo written on the bottom right

A knight of the seven kingdoms is so refreshing. (mostly because the lack of sexual assault but also because it has heart.♥️)

Centrists and vote blue libs: "you gotta comprimise."

The comprimise : expecting the politican you vote for to see you as a human being.

Counterpoint: Hiss! 🐱

12 February 1972, Al Green went to No.1 on the US singles chart with 'Let's Stay Together', his only US chart topper. It was ranked the 60th greatest song of all time by Rolling Stone magazine on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. Tina Turner had a hit with it in 1984. #AlGreen

I just wanna

Thank you for informing us of things we already knew. Wouldn't be surprised if he got venereal disease via nostril.

Tbh Its fucking infuriating to me how a white male canidate can get caught having a nazi tattoo in 2025 and still manage to keep his job and kick it with the lads. Meanwhile, a woman or a poc in his position has one minor blunder and their carreer is over. Fuck Platner.

When we raid the capital and beat cops to death thats fine and normal but when you have a group chat to protect your fellow citizens from our bargin bin gestapo thats domestic terrorism.

Oh, Fuck off.

That one song, you know the one.

A vibrant, wide-angle photo of a colorful outdoor mural promoting the "Super Bowl LX Apple Music Halftime Show." The mural is painted on a long blue wall in a sunlit, tropical setting with real palm trees and bright pink bougainvillea flowers cascading over the top. The artwork features a playful, surreal collage of cultural and football-themed elements: Central Text: The Apple Music logo in bold yellow and red 3D lettering is flanked by "SUPER BOWL LX" above and "HALFTIME SHOW" below. Iconic Imagery: Large illustrations of a golden trumpet, pink sunglasses, maracas, dominoes, and a cup of coffee with a musical note in the foam. Football Elements: Brown footballs are depicted growing on palm trees like coconuts and resting on the ground. Foreground: A young girl in a yellow dress walks along the sidewalk in front of the mural, passing a small goalpost illustration where a green parrot is perched. The overall aesthetic is warm, festive, and celebrates a fusion of Latin-inspired culture and American football.

I'm going to do a thread of all the references and context behind Bad Bunny's performance and what it means for Puerto Ricans to see this on the biggest stage.

The opening title screen is a street mural in Puerto Rico that comes to life with footballs as coconuts.

Follow along!

Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show highlighted Puerto Rico's power grid. Here's why Bad Bunny performed part of the Super Bowl halftime show from a powerline set, drawing attention to the problem of widespread blackouts in Puerto Rico

Fyi the pronouns labeler is gone (rip) and blacksky is already working on having pronouns as a profile field! I love it here

Saw Iron lung today, it was really good! BUT i do have a few critcisms- audio and the pacing could have used a few tweaks and the 2 hr runtime was a bit much. Everything else- the set design,stellar! The intense vibes,stellar! The markiplier, stellar! Overall, its 6.5.

HBO is 100% going to ruin Baldur's Gate. They'll make everyone queer and it'll be about refugees or something.

I dont care, I will go back to prepaid flip phones before I use an apple product.

Hot take: Men like this should be put down.

Israel’s Military Now Accepts 70,000 Killed in Gaza – But Why Did Our Media Let Them Get Away With Denying It for So Long? I have spent the past two years debating the credibility of the Gaza Health Ministry’s numbers with supporters of Israel. It turns out the Israeli military agrees with me, not them.

“How many times, then, will Western journalists allow themselves to be fooled by Israeli propaganda – by military denials that later collapse under the weight of evidence?”

Ink drawing- a side profile of a tree with a still human face. The face is being kissed by a tearful woman, also in profile.

She is and will always be an Icon in my heart.❤️

How ICE Already Knows Who Minneapolis Protesters Are

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.
