I’m just thinking of @lorak.bsky.social covering racist shit at Tesla going back TEN YEARS, whether it’s hateful
slurs towards Black workers, or literal fucking swastikas (weird coming from a company led by the guy throwing up the hitler salutes!), it’s always been clear as day what Musk is about.

I’m slowly working through “Draw Great Characters and Creatures” by Beverly Johnson. Today’s prompt was to draw based on a food item.
…Oops, this is becoming an entire illustration instead of an exercise. 😅 It’s a WIP but tbh I might redo it entirely with more effort on anatomy because I love it.
I just finished this today. It’s great, please read it. ❤️

THIS IS JUST TO AGGRANDIZE
I have spawned
the plums
that were in
the crease
and which
you were calmly
excluding

Unionize me

so sweet

"My own conclusion was psychologically it’s not that people want to work, it’s more people want to feel they are transforming the world in a way that makes some kind a positive difference to other people. In a way, that’s what being human is all about."

First they came for the immigrants, and you did not speak out, because you were not an immigrant.
Then they came for the trans, and you did not speak out, because you were not trans.
Then they came for porn, and you shouted at the top of your lungs “WTF?! They’re banning porn now?!? Fml.”
You do not have to consume every single tiny piece of bad news in order to be a good person. It’s ok to miss things. Traumatizing yourself isn’t the same as activism. Bearing witness to the point that you’re paralyzed with fear and horror and fury isn’t going to help us get through this.

Love seeing lawmakers say this!
"There is an epidemic of violence against sex workers in this country. Something needs to be done. There is a proven strategy that has worked in other places across the country and around the world, and that’s fully decriminalizing adult consensual sex work.”

Just because this place isn't the other places doesn't mean you can just believe what everyone posts here is 100% the truth. Due diligence is still needed even if it's something you agree with and want to believe.

people say “you need to start living in the real world” but they forget that the real world includes lupines and lightning bugs and ginger beer and starlight and sea coasts and Renoir paintings and Rachmaninoff’s piano concertos and fog banks and foxes playing in snow.

#Change is inevitable, terrifying, & rapid in today’s world.
Getting comfy with change saved my life.
Tip 1: Microdose change. Make a goal that is going from 0% to 1% then 1% to 2%.
Trying to go from 0% to 100%, almost never works.
