I know everyone’s making their jokes, but to be real: it’s an American sickness that the media and political class are praising someone who has spent last year calling for a genocide. Lindsay Graham was the worst of us. He wanted the blood of children to flow in the streets of Gaza and got his wish.

My lasting image of Lindsey Graham will always be when he theatrically declared “Count me out. Enough is enough!” after January 6th — and then got back in with Trump more than ever before for Trump 2.0

Lindsey Graham: “Count me out. Enough is enough”

Graham concluded by saying that “Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are lawfully elected and will be the president and vice president of the United States on January the 20th,” earning applause from his coll...

From descriptions of Donald Trump, stated between 2015 and 2018, by Lindsey Graham, a Republican senator from South Carolina.

A race-baiting, xenophobic bigot
The Islamic State’s “man of the year”
The death of the GOP’s relationship with Hispanic voters
A death blow to the GOP’s relationship with women
The world’s biggest jackass
A wrecking ball
A salesman of fear
A politician whose ideas are gibberish
A politician who is incapable of representing a mattress company
A poor representation of a Republican
A president who is unfit for office
A president who sometimes crosses the line
A Twitter user whose tweets are sometimes beneath the office of the presidency
A man who has a blind spot
A thoughtful person
A good person
A strong person
A golfer with an accurate drive and an athletic swing
A president doing a great job
The best hope in decades for peace
A potential recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize

Screenshot of the AP livestream of the 250th celebration on the Mall. But all you see are a couple of workers in orange jackets dealing with orange garbage cans, with that ferris wheel on the left and the shabby fake arch on the right. Closed caption reads "resilience greatest nation in the history of at this time"

I can finally pay attention to the SINNERS discourse on social media. My two red, spoiler-free pennies is that it was great and lives up to the hype. Here’s a not-unrelated piece I did for a show we put up in Charlotte, NC every year #vampires #RyanCoogler #MichaelBJordan #noAIart #sinners

I’m based in Charlotte, NC and while I haven’t felt the hand of the terrible anti-immigrant EOs or seen in person the state sanctioned, anti-first amendment abductions, or had any trans friends assaulted - these are all things happening right now in our country, in full view of everyone.

40th anniversary of #TheLastDragon. This movie cemented my love of kung-fu, Bruce Lee and over-the-top storytelling, so much so that I try and include those sensibilities in what I do. Also I saw someone write “we deserve a backstory for the Shogun of Harlem.” #BruceLee #TheLastDragon #Spiderman

The cognitive dissonance felt after spending the morning in conversation with local artists, supporting each other and articulating plans, only to come home and get news shotgunned into my eyeballs that indicate a possible future in which these plans cannot flourish is crippling.

Most anybody reading this will not, nor ever be a billionaire. Never. You just won’t (Unless there’s a lonely ass billionaire creeping this shit. If so… ‘sup, loser. Go fuck yourself.) So the actions these folk are undertaking is class warfare directed at you and me and the people we love…

Every news outlet reporting Elon Musk's comment about accidentally canceling Ebola prevention efforts and quickly restoring them should also say they haven't been restored, they're still canceled, the outbreak-fighting teams are dismantled, the money is gone www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

washingtonpost.com

Musk says DOGE ‘restored’ Ebola prevention effort. Officials say that’s not true.

USAID’s initiatives to fight Ebola and other diseases have been gutted, current and former agency officials said.

Made my first ever #sticker today. (They're surprisingly hard to photograph, lol.) Lemme know if you need some for reasons. #art #defiance #possum

A sticker with rainbow holographic shimmer. The left side says "DOES NOT PLAY WELL WITH FASCISTS" in red spray-painted letters. On the right, a hissing cartoon possum looks over their shoulder, holding a spray paint can. They're wearing a little punk vest with "fund the arts" pinned to the back. Under the possum's tail reads "Allison Frink - aqualatteart.com"

Make comics. Actually make them and FINISH them and MOVE ON and make another one and another. Start small. Make a one panel comic. Make a one page comic. Make a two or three page comic. Make a five page comic. Now you've really learned something! Keep going.
