Hey so can we get a general strike yet? What exactly are we waiting for? We the people have the power to shut down the economy. First the 10 million people in LA, then the whole state which is the 4th largest economy in the world. We the people have the power 💪

We are hearing reports of people held without food or water, in a building where the lights all go out at 5pm. There are children there. It is a moral outrage. This is what fascism looks like. I am proud of my city for fighting back. Solidarity with those on the front lines.

In LA they have been taking people who showed up for their immigration court hearing, literally going through the system and doing everything the “right way,” and detaining them - in the basement.

That’s the point - destroy the economy so his billionaire allies can buy everything for cheap. Just like they’ve been destroying the federal government so they can say “see, it’s broken!” and privatize it.

But but but, if they move leftward they’d have to stop accepting all those big checks!

I screamed multiple times while listening to the news on my drive to work this morning. There are so many awful things happening it’s overwhelming (that’s intentional, I know). A woman arrested for how she disposed of fetal remains. As someone who miscarried multiple times, these stories are a blow.

Hey remember when trump called us the enemy within? I do. If this government can disappear a green card holder they can disappear a citizen.

I came here to post about how I’ve started putting my original paintings up for sale on Daily Paintworks but the government has arrested a legal permanent resident for protesting the genocide of his people so I feel obligated to post about that instead. Are we winning yet? (Art here bit.ly/41Pq5bb

Hey @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social - enough decorum, enough respectful quiet, enough moderates. You can’t tip a seesaw by sitting in the middle. You can’t fight fascism with centrism.

Briefly listened to pod save America this morning and they said something like “if democrats really believe trump is an authoritarian then their response of pink t-shirts and signs seems pretty ridiculous” and yes, yes it does. Wtaf @housedemocrats.bsky.social Next time follow Al Green

Trying to decide if I should keep going with this painting - at least add in the bench he was sitting on? But also I like it and what if I mess it up - and anyway it’s just a quick sketch…feeling indecisive!

I went to figure study today! I haven’t done that in around 16 years. It’s a group at my local community center, uninstructed although just the opportunity to paint/sketch with other artists is a great learning opportunity. Felt like a beginner again. That’s ok. Proud of myself for showing up.

There are these incredible trees in several of the parks in San Pedro. Their scientific name is Ficus Macrophylla, and they are also known as Moreton Bay figs or Australian Banyan trees. The massive buttress roots make it an excellent tree for playing and climbing. I love painting these.

Hi, I'm Carrie. I'm an artist, photographer and product designer. Sometimes I write about art - and sometimes that writing branches into politics and philosophy. This week I wrote about the impact increase tariffs could have on art supplies. bit.ly/4fPxlYR
