as a new manager in a retail store, I am printing educational protocol materials for my employees on how to keep customers and each other safe if ICE enters our property or is seen nearby. even though it’s scary and uncomfortable, I recommend all businesses do the same. resources below:

fucking deplorable and i wish i were there to knock them out with a trash can a la the simpsons arcade game (srsly fuck that, i'm sorry this is happening)

i've been told i'm a boomer for saying "DLCs" and that's probably why this didn't do the numbers it should have.

WE'RE JUST WORMS WITH DLC. the DLC? all the DLC? someone punch this up.

Humans are just worms that bought all the DLCs, you ever think about that?

eeeeee thank youuuuu

Hiiii!! i'm bad at updating every social media so here's some more tattoos from the past lil while that make me smile. find me other places: linktr.ee/pollenpowder

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

@nordek.bsky.social please shoot me a message, i'd like to pass along some of the compensation for this piece!

fresh tattoo of a winged fantasy creature, her head lowered towards text which reads "Once upon a time"

the same tattoo, healed several weeks later

the original art by @nordek.bsky.social !

finally figured out the original artist behind the tattoo i did last month! huge thanks to @nordek.bsky.social for your work that inspired my client @tchai-sky.bsky.social
here's a fresh and a healing pic 💛

i saw that too but didn't understand why/how, would love to know more

i loved my day of hanging out with you in there

Labor history should be a required course in all high schools.
The 8-hour day, paid vacations, health care, the end of child labor, and the right to negotiate a contract are all victories paid for with the lives of working-class warriors. No one knows their names.

Black and white etching-style triptych showing 8 hours for work on the left, 8 hours for rest in the middle, and 8 hours for “what we will” on the right

Did you know the “weekend” and working only 8 hours per day used to be considered a radical, liberal idea?

139 years ago today, in Bay View, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 7 workers (including a 13 yo) lost their lives to advance this revolutionary idea.

"right now"

brad pitt, leonardo dicaprio, and matt damon are all the same human to me. i cannot tell them apart.

you have the luckiest pulls on these blind boxes, i don't understand

how am i meant to get anything done when there are people being disappeared on the streets by vague government agents

Dragonfruit earring

same. i was cracked on it for a weekend and then never touched it again.

Do think all our problems could be solved if someone built something called like the Alpha Male Death Battle To The Death Arena Sponsored By Monster Energy and filled the place with weapons and speakers that played canned applause every time anyone died. This would be voluntary but the doors lock

i'd also probably post this joke with slightly more relevant timing but i'm trying to be less online

if i had a time machine, i'd go back in time and wear pink next to Hitler

never meet your heroes

here's a project i finished up recently! illustrative tattoos of my client's two cats with native plants. he does have a third cat but not a third arm unfortunately, so we'll have to move to a new limb!

A poster for the economic blackout on February 28. It is a big red Jack rabbit on an aqua blue back ground. It says economic blackout in hand done black type. There are two black speech bubbles. One says “don’t buy stuff Friday February 28th. The other says we have power. Below it says No Amazon, Walmart, target, gas food, gas. Below that it says OK small business, use cash. Designed by Martha Rich.

I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!

love that you included the BROKEN tattoo

"Listen, if a Bad President can come in and take away our rights and we're dependent on a Good President replacing them in four years to give us back our rights, then we do not have any rights. "If politicians can take or distribute them, then they're not 'inalienable' and they're not 'rights.' "We don't have inalienable rights we have conditional privileges, divvied out according to the whims of whoever currently holds the reins. "And if we want to have actual rights, then we must build a system in which no one has the power to take them away to begin with."

I've been screaming this for years.

this is so sweet :')

“You have a sword, sheathed at your hip. You can unsheathe it whenever you want. You must never unsheathe it.”

“Unsheathe your blade and immediately kill the person in front of you. Then, remove your character from the game. You cannot play them any longer.”

if i get killed, please know that i died while honoring my strong belief in giving tesla drivers a thumbs down
