Two new stickers and one new prints are available!! And I love both of them so much??! Look at those pumpkins! www.evanskyarts.com #art #illustration #artist #fall #autumn #SpookySeason #dog #DogsOfBluesky #Crow #BirdSky #bsnm

Picture of my hand holding a sticker featuring a traditional drawing of 4 crows drawn with black ballpoint pen hanging around a pile of pumpkins drawn with tricolour pencils.

Picture of a print next to a sticker photographed on a black and wooden background. The print and sticker both feature a digital illustration of a brown and white dog happily rolling on a thick floating patch of grass with the words « touch grass » written with grass in front of the dog. The print has a tan background.

When it first opened in 2015, Blue Butterfly Village was hailed as a rare sanctuary for women veterans overcoming homelessness. But some tenants now say conditions at the taxpayer-subsidized San Pedro townhome complex have become so bad. 🎥 David Wagner

I don't mention it enough, but the single greatest source of untapped Democratic votes is abroad. Great to see Reich on this. Turnout among eligible voting-age Americans overseas was estimated at approximately 11%!!! 11%!!! 11%!!! 11%!!! 11%!!!

If it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon. Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability.

As we mark the 250 years of our Declaration of Independence, let us acknowledge all of the brave people who have struggled to bring us closer to the ideal of “liberty and justice for all” and prepare to push for a future where those words are finally true, without exception, for every human. 🇺🇸

That’s how I interpret “all men are created equal” and the inalienable rights of “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness”. There are no buts, except for, only ifs in these statements.

We are, and hopefully always will be, a nation that strives to live up to its ideals. We have been given lofty goals: to see the humanity of every person as equal to our own; to create a society where everyone can thrive and be their authentic selves.

The young voters who elected Mayor Mamdani have lagged way behind in early voting counts this month. If you want to do the mayor a solid and replace the status quo in Congress with new progressive energy, Election Day is tomorrow from 6a-9p. Check your poll site at vote.nyc and remind your friends.

Church-state separation isn't anti-religion. It's the reason everyone — believer or not — gets to live and believe as they choose. It protects all beliefs equally, including yours. Learn more about church-state separation: au.org

Gladstone: You may think, “How did we get here?” For the First Peoples of this land, unfortunately, this has been ongoing since the birth of this country as we know it today. So perhaps the question then is not, “How did we get here?” It’s, “How are we still here?”

Ms. Rachel: As the American Academy of Pediatrics says, there is no safe amount of time for a child to be in detention. The Dilley immigration detention center must be shut down. We need to end the cruel policies of family detention and family separation.

While mass arrests were being made last night outside of Delaney Hall, the courageous people imprisoned inside continue their strike. The problem isn’t just with Delaney. The entire US concentration camp system is rife with abuse, neglect, and loss of life. They should ALL be shut down immediately.

The most strategic fumble I’ve witnessed among dem leaders is letting their cops beat up their constituents. And it’s been going on for years and weakening us all. It leaves people with few options but to lose faith in the entire system. And faith is all you got because there isn’t very much proof

You are still likely losing some of your maternal line in the naming conventions unless both parents have hyphenated names and choose to use both of the names from their maternal lines as their child’s hyphenated surname. And the maternal names were likely patriarchal at some point.
