The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

These Bay Area Restaurants Are Offering Free Food to SNAP Recipients Amid a government shutdown that will cut off aid for 42 million Americans, local food scene folks plan to pick up the slack.

While the feds continue to play stupid games, SNAP recipients are set to lose food aid for the next month. In the Bay Area, a growing number of restaurants are stepping up to help, and we're maintaining the list. Share with anyone who needs it. www.coyotemedia.org/these-bay-ar...

STRONGEST agree.

Oh HELL yeah; time to enter the work costume contest

I’m baffled by how many people are ready to forgive a nazi tattoo and a nazi-adjacent cover up but I suppose I shouldn’t be.

I will stop watching Baby Assassins content when they stop making it, which I hope is never.

I mean, I get it—I want to wear that to work.

My hallmark of success as an adult has been grocery shopping without checking my bank account first and I just want that for other people.

Working on something new..

If you go out of turn at a four way stop I will yell “wrong!” and give you a thumbs down.

I will no longer take for granted being able to breathe through both nostrils.

You unlocked secret berries at the farmers market! Incredible.

He’s just so so good at this!

Drawing reads “select all images with teeth” at top. Nine teeth are shown, three teeth are selected. The unselected teeth include a tooth made of brains, a tooth x-ray, a tooth made of crystal, a wooden tooth, a flaming tooth, and a clear tooth filled with liquid. The selected teeth appear to me normal human teeth with slight variations.

I like drawing teeth.

Back at work and I already miss the idle afternoons of vacation.

In a twist everyone saw coming I have given up on chores entirely and am now playing videogames.

Instead of doing chores I am going to draw all morning, a choice I will surely not regret later! (It is called a “pre-reward” and it never works, but I almost always choose it over chores)

Am I a citizen? Am I married? Only time will tell!

I finished this drawing about six months ago and I’m still pretty pleased with it. It has only increased my desire to get hand tattoos.
