I am a Quaker Graffiti artist living in NYC. I do woodcut prints that are meant to inspire or provoke reflection but sometimes piss people off. This is a new print that shows the Quaker SPICES with a compass plant. This native plant grows on the praires, and its leaves face East/West.

@quakerpirate.bsky.social do you think you could measure public opinion (by georegion) on a topic indirectly by measuring how long a slogan can stay up before being covered, what size, and publicity of placement?

Hoping to help others without expectation of anything in return, it asks us everyday how we will engage with ourselves and the gifts we are able to receive and give, it is comfort when we embrace it, and it is patient when we reject it, Love is Us, love is them, love is we, love is you, love is me.

amazing that our own small creations connect us directly to the moment of our universe erupting out of nothing and the unfathomable power of existence itself and yet we look at our drawings or stories and are like 'this is bad.' bud it is not bad it is the leading edge of a billion years of beauty

half awake vision this morning of a cartoon called Graveyard Friends about animals living in a cemetery & a girl who hangs out there (Emo Winnie The Pooh + leftist organizing Dilbert/Animal Farm) w/ a groundhog that pops up with Marx quotes or animals trying to organize amid leftist infighting

Panel 1
Porcupine: hey Violet watcha doin
Violet: Just contemplating my mortality

Panel 2 overhead shot zoomed out showing them sitting in the middle of rows and rows of identical graves
Violet: Sometimes it feels like everything was decided before I was born & now I just have to live with it. But what if I get to the end & never feel like I really lived?

Panel 3
Violet: what do you think, Marx?
Marx the groundhog: The tradition of all dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brains of the living

Panel 4
Violet: ... What does that mean tho..?
Porcupine: It means those suckas are dead girl, do what you want!

We need regional currencies or at least exchange rates. It's insane that someone from a place where they make way more $ per year can go buy up all the houses in a place where the annual HHI is a fraction of what they make, then turn around and jack up the rents bc there's a housing crisis

The GOP now is basically run by 2 groups- 1) ppl richer than God who either believe they're in a simulation & we're all not real OR that this is all very real & they need to live long enough to upload their consciousness to "live" forever 2) ppl who think they need an apocalypse so Jesus comes back

We had a revolution & the USA as we knew it ended on Jan 6th- voted to impeach & it didn't go through. That was the end of the experiment that ran from antebellum reconstruction- it's an illusion we're the same country as ~250 years ago. It was a hostile takeover & they're milking the US brand for $

As you scroll through memes honoring MLK, today is a good day to remember that a lot of leaders believe that the only appropriate place to hold a protest is in the past. Hat tip to @derringerpax.bsky.social, who made my quote into a woodcut in 2024.

Quote by @bettybarcode, made into a woodcut by @derringerpax in 2024. Black & white image of a crowd in silhouette, holding up banners that read "some seem to think that the only appropriate place to hold a protest is in the past."

Something I’ve been trying to tell people in my life is there is no safe or right way to exist safely under {fascism|authoritarianism|whatever}. There is no logical course of action you can follow that will prevent you from being targeted, intentionally or by chance, which history shows repeatedly.
