This is my art account, but also anything I think is interesting. Art is political. My art is nerdy and inspired by microorganisms, bugs, and creatures. Tardigrades are my favorite. 🌈🐌🦠🐛 Tacoma, WA. mossandpiglets.etsy.com

First Amendment Troop returns to the Lincoln Memorial with “ResistDance vs Redaction” — A protest with young dancers blindfolded, with Epstein Files printed on their leotards to symbolize redacted survivors. The piece reinterprets 13-yr-old Jane Doe 4’s testimony about Trump through movement. ❤️‍🩹

Just remember that given the abundance of neurodivergent people in science, it's far more likely that autism causes vaccines.

Pigeon milk.
A six panel comic. In panel 1, a banner says "Pigeons make milk" and a smaller banner says "A fact you didn't need to know". A pigeon stands looking at the reader next to a carton of milk. In panel 2, the text says "Like mammals, pigeons feed milk to their babies. Both male and female pigeons produce it." Two pigeons sit next to their pink and gray babies, all looking happy, and one of the parents says, "Teamwork." In panel 3, the text says "Pigeons don't have nipples. They make milk in a part of their esophagus and regurgitate it." Two pigeons stand next to each other, one with a cow udder and one with a line of nipples down its chest, with red X's next to them. In panel 3, the text says "Amazingly, it evolved independently from mammal milk but it's triggered by the same hormone, prolactin." A black and white dairy cow looks down at a pigeon, who says "We're not so different, you and I." In panel 5, the text says "Like our milk, it has fats, proteins, immune-supporting substances, and more." A cow foot and a pigeon wing are shown high-fiving, and text says "milk high five". In panel 6, the text says "However, it's very chunky, so don't trust any pigeon to make you a good latte." A white coffee cup steaming with a latte inside is shown with the contents censored, and a pigeon leans into the frame looking proud of itself.

Now that OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google are vying for our business, AI is probably as good as it will ever be for consumers. Once one of them emerges as the market leader and enshittification kicks in, it's going to really suck for everyone.

I helped mobilize a group of neighbors to provide direct aid to nearly 50 families who are in hiding from ICE. These folks deserve fresh, familiar foods. So we're purchasing groceries direct from neighborhood Latino markets whenever we can. Venmo @kristina-halvorson to help, and please repost.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It’s about control.
