Thanks, Riass!

Hi, everyone! I picked an artist that I think will be a good fit. Thank you all for your inquiries and insights, and especially thanks to those of you who shared your art with me. It was a real pleasure getting to see so much imagination and talent!

I’m going to over-communicate here in order to avoid under communicating, since so many ppl have been awesome in expressing interest in this. I just got home exhausted from work, so won’t look at this until tomorrow, but anybody who has shared a link to their portfolio, I’ll check it out tomorrow. 😴

It’s missing a golf course on the front lawn.

Can anyone interested please share a link to some of their previous work, so I can get a feel for everyone’s style?

Absolutely. It seems like a damage control mindset instead of doing what it takes to help the league go big.

Hi Sakura. Please see comments in post. : )

Hi everyone! I have read everyone’s comments. I need a day to consider the path forward for this and should reply to you all tonight. Thanks for your interest and patience!

I think that’s the right question. This is an extremely important moment in history for the league, and I have no idea if the leadership is going to make the necessary changes.

the parallel to Tiananmen Square

Probably something with simple lines, clear/easy interpretability. Like a political cartoon? I'm open to ideas, style-wise. Do you have work that you think fits the general style?

I want people to instantly make the connection between the resistance to ICE/Trump Fascism and the bravery of that one man in Tiananmen Square. I'm also picturing something meme-able. Could be cartoon or something similarly easy to interpret. Probably other ways of representing it other than cartoon

I want people to easily draw the parallel in their minds.

I would want it to remind folks of that famous Tiananmen Square picture (almost) as much as possible. Probably not 100% similar. It would prob need to have some aspects to make it feel contemporary at the same time. But the idea is to have it as recognizable as possible.

Yes, I want to commission this.

We need an artist: we need an image of the Portland frog costume guy in front of a line of tanks, Tiananmen Square style. I can help finance.

I used to run the Civil Rights department of the North American labor movement and I can tell you that this is one of the best public statements I’ve heard/seen from a labor leader about their working conditions in the midst of negotiations. Well done Phee! 👏🏾👏🏾 #wnba

When the officials constantly let taking out the best players in the league be a viable winning strategy, the league leadership is responsible. They need to go.

Per the NYT. A massive level of corruption, beyond anything we’ve ever seen. Trumps get rich, their cronies get special deals, jeopardizing our security.

Opinion | This Is What Autocracy Looks Like

"If you saw all this in any other country — soldiers sent to crush dissent, union leaders arrested, opposition politicians threatened — it would be clear that autocracy had arrived." www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/o...

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence.

They are in charge.

Republicans are too chickenshit to hold town halls. Shocker.

Here’s an idea: Democrats, hold town halls in Republican districts.
