You know if things get too rough out here in America, I think I’d like to migrate to Australia. They have universal healthcare, they generously support the arts, they have the best rock n roll bands past and present, the best venomous snakes, and they let you keep Koala Bears in your yard.

In a world of shit, this hits home in a magical way. I’ll take it.

Reggie Watts statement, 1 of 2: “I was disappointed to see that Thom's statement centers his hurt feelings and frames his fans' demands for him to speak up as a "social media witch hunt," instead of recognizing the urgency of their call for him to speak out against the world-historical humanitarian crisis in Palestine. I hope Thom will reflect and decenter himself from the public outcry against the genocide, because if he and his artistic legacy stand for love and humanity as he asserts, he can come to see his fans' actions as an act of loving solidarity with suffering people-a needed affirmation of our humanity in these dark times.”

Reggie Watts statement 2 of 2: “I also want to address Thom's repetition of a common rhetorical tactic of those who are devoted to maintaining the status quo, that one cannot speak up or demand an end to the genocide unless they fully understand the deep "complexity" of this historical conflict. I urge Thom's fans to reject this conviction-neutralizing, demobilizing sentiment and trust their hearts. You don't need to be a geopolitics scholar to know that starving children and slaughtering families is wrong. Your membership in the human family gives you authority and, indeed, responsibility to speak up. All positive change starts with conscious and loving people raising their voices and working together to bring a better world into existence. Please keep fighting until our sisters and brothers in Palestine are free.”

Reggie Watts addresses Thom Yorke’s statement on Palestine and it’s good

If you’re heading into Comiskey and see these guys selling my Pope Chicago design, could you please dump a pitcher of Kool Aid all over their shirts? Appreciate ya.

Disgusting display of authoritarianism

keep ice out of the courts but also off the planet

Seems really late to say this

Imagine doing a 25 hour filibuster highlighting how terrible Trump is, but you don’t even mention Trump’s proposal to ethnically cleanse Gaza. 25 hours. Not even a passing reference to the 45 thousand dead using OUR tax dollars. No mention of the “Riviera of the Middle East”. It’s why we lose.

Display the Constitution

Just a ridiculously good ceramic vessel by one of my Hancock painting students, they just turned 18 and are going to UIC in the fall…kudos to their ceramics teacher Jesse Rosenbaum. Chicago Public School teachers for the win.

Exactly.

So romantic.

Every time you see someone powerful acting like a craven coward in the face of this authoritarian menace, let it stiffen your own spine. We are all we've got.

I did exactly this. Please let this POS know he should just forget his presidential ambitions, he is permanently stained with Charlie Kirk stank.

You did the right thing, these cowards need to look and learn

To all my colored pencil people, your expensive Prismacolors are made in Mexico, and tomorrow the tariffs are supposed to kick in, if they haven’t already.

Why would anyone want to be a useless “Rubio”?

Pritzker: "We're talking about the death of a constitutional republic. That's what happened in Germany in 1933, 1934. And we're seeing today that we've got an administration in Washington that's ignoring court orders."

I enjoyed Anora. A little bit long but overall I appreciated everyone involved.

We watched Anora last night. I really enjoyed it but he thought it was a little long.
