When Grammy-winning musician Rhiannon Giddens begins playing “Old Corn Liquor,” a traditional Black American folk tune, acclaimed Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man recognizes similarities to Chinese pentatonic music and spontaneously joins in. The joy on their faces says it all.

Holy shit ASOS released an adaptive clothing line specifically for people with disabilities?!?!!! Magnets instead of buttons, special pockets and holes to hold wearable medical devices that have tubes, and zippers to make them more comfortable for wheelchair users. www.asos.com/women/fashio...

Endless, tremendous thanks to everyone who came out to the screening of The Matrix last night on a Lilly Wachowski’s personal 35mm print that she very graciously let us project Meant the world to program and introduce this film vital to my transness to a crowd of passionate queer folks 💚

I started as a sound engineer when I was 15, and I've managed to make it to 66 with only 10 decibels of loss. For the last 20 years, I've had a pair of Etymotics ER-20 ear plugs in a little case on my keychain.
Pair of triple flanged ear plugs, a keychain, and the two parts of an aluminum pill case to hold them.

DRAGONFLIGHT (1978)
 Acrylic on Masonite - 20" X 30" 

For the 1st book in Anne McCaffrey's legendary Dragonriders of Pern series, I wanted to create a literal visualization of the title. I selected an aerial POV and tilted the horizon to simulate the dizzying sensation of flight. #art #booksky 🪐📚
A flight of dragons swoops past a rocky mountain peak down that mostly obscures the sun. The light tints green sky yellow along the ridge. With wings spread wide, the lead dragon pulls up from a dive with beak open to expose teeth and tongue. The arc of its climb intersects a red striated planet. The female dragonrider raises one arm up as she glances back over her shoulder.

A lot of people are not well right now: physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. This is an excellent time to de-escalate conflicts and to lean into patience. This is true in our personal lives and also (maybe especially) online when it's overwhelmingly strangers crashing into each other.

If I'm getting stares from my neighbor by emerging from my home wearing a P100 face mask in the early morning in order to apply the last coats of paint to a papier mache hat, it must be Dragon Con.

Also: get your OWN in order. You are never too young to get an advance directive and designate a medical power of attorney. You don't want to be trying to get that shit in order in the midst of a cancer diagnosis or something.
