One of the reasons I'm an independent photojournalist is to do my part to create an archive of history that's not controlled by a fascist billionaire.

Demonstrating that they are willing to throw trans people under the bus only shows me that they're willing to throw people under the bus for power, and is one of the strongest arguments they could make for keeping them as far away from power as possible.

It's not about placing themselves at the top. They're already at the top. It's about putting us more firmly under control. Deskilled, devalued, hyper-surveilled, desperate. That vision of fascism won't be defeated in the next two elections. It's a long fight.

And remember, all of this is happening amid the AI buildout. AI, which is not a coherent set of products and services, but rather a commercial and political project, can be understood as a full-spectrum class-war offensive. An offensive waged by one industry, which put their guy Vance in the WH.

And even if they take huge losses during the midterms, we've still got a very ugly road ahead. These people will thrash about and cause tremendous harm. They will keep killing, jailing, kidnapping, and bombing. This is a long fight.

The thing is that to move your community off of X, you have to CARE and you have to be willing to SPEAK UP and DO SOMETHING. Expend some time and social capital and effort in getting folks to move. I'd encourage you to do that! It's both the right thing to do and feels great!

A pencil and paper portrait of Zheng. Their face and hair are detailed, and her collar and shoulders are indicated by simple lines.

An unfinished pencil and paper drawing of Zheng and Olu. Zheng is behind Olu, arms around him, their chin resting on his shoulder. She is smiling. Olu's head is tilted up. His eyes are closed and he is smiling.

A digital drawing of Zheng sitting with an elbow propped on a rock. Their hand supports their head. Her expression is dismayed. The drawing is rendered in shades of red, pink, and purple.

underwater photo of a badass mermaid swimming in front of a coral reef. She has light skin, long, curly purple and blue hair, a blue and purple bra, and a red, purple, and blue crown made of seashells. Her lower body is black, blue, and red and ends in long octopus tentacles that fade to red at the tips, and are covered with contrasting swirls in red, purple, and blue. She is swimming toward the viewer with right arm outstretched and tentacles visible behind her, one wrapped over her left shoulder. It looks like she is casting a spell.

Returning to real media with some watercolour. I wanted to capture the childhood sense of wonder I still feel at the beach. A5 painting with colour shift pearl paints. I tried to include all my fav local marine species! #art #mermaid #siren #watercolour 🐟🧜🏻🌊

A siren is sleep on her side with her tail curled round and partially submerged. There are mackerel, a cat shark, spider crab, sand eels and prawns around her. The beach sand is full of various shells, stones and sea glass. It is a peaceful scene full of marine treasures

Same image but angled in such a way that the pearl/iridescent paints shine are showing

My hand and pen I used to show the scale. A5 watercolour paper and a 0.03 fineliner. I prefer to work small scale, large canvases daunt me rather!

I'm not sure it's mandatory. I just use sea salt for everything because I think it tastes better. My sodium tolerence is low so using saltier-tasting salt is good for my health. I do have finishing salts and a thing of rock salt in case I want to change things up.

I'd say it's pretty consistent. Sometimes the context means that you can leave off a qualifier and refer to the fruit as "a pepper" but even so people usually call it by what type of pepper-fruit it is. Default 'pepper' as a substance is always the spice.
