One month I’ll be graduating with a bachelors. 41 years old… tried 3 times prior and had to quit for various reason. One being near homelessness, another being the VA screwing me in benefits. But I’ll have it done in a month. Only to start my masters. MFA type ish.

This change hit me hard. My choices are a 7 dollar deal that offers nearly nothing for me (aside from emergencies) or a $500 a month deal that offers SOME stuff. I can’t afford it. I’m a veteran and the VA is next to worthless. Called the NYS number to no avail. Truly sucks

Black text on white page that reads as follows:

On June 19, 1865, African American communities in Galveston, Texas, finally learned of their freedom from slavery — two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation took effect. 

For 161 years, Juneteenth has been a day of remembrance for the freedom that was delayed. It is also a celebration of the joy and resilience that flourished despite that delay. 

The contributions of African Americans, whose struggle for freedom shaped our nation, are immeasurable. Yet too many Black families continue to bear the brunt of an affordability crisis that has pushed them out of the neighborhoods and communities they've built. 

True freedom has a tangible impact on daily life: the ability to afford housing, earn a living wage, put food on the table, support a family, and create a future for generations to come. 

As we celebrate today, we must recommit ourselves to ensuring this freedom is fully realized. 

Happy Juneteenth, New York City.

On Juneteenth, we remember the struggles and honor the sacrifices of our ancestors. While our past paved the way to the progress we've reached today, we must also recommit to continue fighting for our future and true freedom and equality for all.

This confusion at how to celebrate the 250th is driving me crazy. There are two “official” groups. There is Freedom250: Trumps grift. Then there is America250: congressionally created with Pres. Obama as an honorary chair member. This one is the real nonpartisan one. Freedom250 ❌ America250 ✅

This is a pendulum tale as old as time. We desire people to be experts in a world filled with snake oil salespeople. We then get experts and denounce them saying the snake oil people know better. Rinse repeat. A quality photographer is an expert in their craft and subject matter. Ai is snake oil.

I’ve been able to feed my kids, buy my house, and know that my work is seen by millions. Seeing people flock to the parks today is a reminder how many get to enjoy my work. So TY Star Wars and its fans for giving me my life.

Today is #maythefourth & it’s a day for me to reflect on the fact that the Star Wars IP has been the primary focus for my career the past 10 years. As a costume artisan working as a contractor for Disney, I’ve had the pleasure to create some amazing costumes for their theme parks for many to enjoy.

Hope isn’t blind optimism — it arises in the face of uncertainty. If you look at our history, we’ve gone through some rough patches. But we tend to come out on the other side of them stronger than before.
