THEY PEPPER SPRAYED A BABY

Please read this entire excellent piece by Caroline, which points out that a judge ordered the Feds (again) to stop doing **this exact kind of thing** and they are still continuing to do it all over Chicago

Why Are Some Democrats Backing MAGA's Anti-LGBTQ+ Censorship? From late-night host cancellations to removing LGBTQ+ history from government sites, politicians in both parties are contributing to the overwriting of the internet β€” a place where lots of queer and t...

Online censorship is one of the many levers of state power right-wingers have been pulling to try and snuff out queer and trans existence. But instead of fighting back, some Democrats are helping them at the controls. Read the full #OpEd from @fightforthefuture.org

No amount of marketing advice or hustle culture bullshit about monetizing followers will fix the structural problems that make freelance art careers so difficult. Maybe spend more time asking why people can’t/don’t want to pay us? Why society can’t support us?

Are you trying to tell me you DO NOT have to fire thousands of employees and destroy your definitive franchises and shutter studios every three months?

Where is the patronage today for art, tailoring, craftsmanship, and public buildings? Why are new elites so allergic to any sense of beauty?

I argue this is happening partly because people have associated crappy aesthetics with authenticity, intelligence, and virtue.

Newark Airport Had 3 Controllers on Duty When the Goal Is 14

It’s very strange that this article on the staffing issues at Newark Airport doesn’t mention the fact that DOGE fired 400 FAA employees a few months ago, and union officials warned about exactly these kinds of shortages.

if you’re an artist who ever thought β€œwhat’s the point? The world is Hell and I should do something that matters instead”

even in an ICE detention center people will treat art as sacred, seek it out, and find joy and comfort in it. You aren’t making art, you’re making hope.

Everyone should watch this. Then share it with anyone who thinks these tariffs are a good idea and won’t crush small businesses.

Panel 1: 
"I make art for a living."
Drawing character art on a tablet 

Panel 2:
"It feels... Questionable right now." 
Drawing interrupted by a news alert

Panel 3: 
"So much horror and pain all around us... And it feels like it's getting worse every day." 
Cait staring at her tablet while news alerts ping loudly

Panel 1: 
"What the hell am I doing." 
Cait takes off her glasses and rubs her eyes, the news alerts are louder and more frightening 

Panel 2: 
"I'm drawing pretty pictures while the world is on fire. While families are torn apart. While war and genocide become daily news. While my country is held hostage by bigots who want me and the people I love to die." 
Cait holds her head in her hands, overwhelmed by pinging alerts

Panel 1: 
"But I can't think that way. ...not every day, at least..."
Cait balls her fists, grimacing with tears on her face 

Panel 2:
"I love what I do. And I work in entertainment - providing beauty and escapism for my audience." 
She puts her glasses back on and picks up her tablet pen, sniffling

Panel 1: 
"We need art in turbulent times. People need escape from the horrors. And if I can provide that - then I'm being helpful." 
Cait starts drawing, but the pinging alerts are on the rise again. 

Panel 2: 
"I'm being helpful. I'm being helpful... I'm being helpful... I'm helpful... Helpful..." 
She draws, trembling, as the alerts swell around her.
