Another tale for the anthology Pat Brosseau and I are working on has reared its head.

It’s weird to me that I’m not seeing anything on here about Epstein, Minnesota, Italy or anything relevant at all to the world situation.

On this day, and every day, remember that peace is important, vital, and attainable through our voices and our belief that we can come together and create a better world for each other, no matter the race, creed, religion or standing of one another. #martinlutherkingjrday

I love this color/painting by @ryanlord.com over my sketch especially how it’s partially in shadow and partially bathed in light

And as a reminder: if you stand with him? You stand for hate, anger, criminality, racism, sexism, misogyny, rape of our children and essentially everything that is evil.

And I want nothing to do with you.

This kind of chaos is what he wants. Don’t let it escalate into violence. Maintain peaceful protesting.

Why? If it turns violent, which he wants, then it’s martial law followed by emergency powers followed by no midterm elections.

It’s a strategy for him to maintain power and to stay out of prison.

So please remain peaceful.

Keep your voices up. Keep standing up.

Peacefully.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.

And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: β€œNo, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”

Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

Every artist wishes they could go back in time to deliver a swat to the back of their own head and say, β€œDon't do that!”

None of this is universal, but here is a protips thread of some things I (and many of my peers) would try to stop ourselves from doing.

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.
