How does one become a scarification artist

As an audio post professional, I thank you.

And while we are here, throw the headphone / boom mic combo in the trash. Easier to restore phone recording than that garbage.

I think it's the opposite. Trump gets to say NYC made the wrong choice. And now, since Cuomo can't fix the city, he will need to fix the city.

2 pages of a vintage map of the "United States of America."  on the left side is an oil painting of a crumpled Budweiser beer can with a bullet hole in it. On the right side is a Glock handgun and a spent bullet shell.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.

This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Dems MUST hold daily press briefings just after WH briefings. Fact check, fight back, fill the news void. Press banned from WH briefings will show up -- I promise! (I know what I'm talking about, so lets do this!)

one of the defining features of the techbro dipshits now running the USA is their absolute refusal to consider that anyone, ever, has thought about problems before them

time after time they come in, propose a solution that was rejected years ago because it's stupid, and call themselves geniuses

Regimes seem solid until they are not. Every resistance act matters because often regimes are crumbling from within from corruption and yet good at hiding that fact. cc: Russia

Please do not use bluesky to only post screenshots and links to the most grotesque, rage-inducing tweets out there.

Went through the same realization with strollers in NYC and the minimal access to subways. 1/15 NYers have ambulatory disabilities yet only 27% of stations are accessible.
