BREAKING: The so called 'SAVE' Act has FAILED in the Senate and will not become law. I wrote this piece on how in reality, this is the Voter Restriction Act to prevent women from voting. It is fascism and would have installed Trump as a permanent dictator. www.qasimrashid.com/p/the-save-a...

I hope that this couple can find some peace & justice. The Target Boycott on this end was permanent as of a while ago. This couple's experience is like hearing about an ex's messy life. It confirms that breaking up was a great decision, while wishing nobody else had to suffer their wake.

I don't post often for many reasons, but that Bad Bunny show was TOO GOOD to stay quiet. It was a love letter in party form. I don't tear up easily, but honestly, my eyes were shiny by the end followed by a huge cheer. Going to have to watch that again and again.

I’ve been rewatching the Coen Bros filmography this month and while drawing a Barton Fink illustration, it struck me how much their films feel like Far Side cartoons: funny, strange, clever, yet frequently inscrutable. Anyway here’s a thread!
An illustration of a scene from Fargo drawn in the style of the comic strip The Far Side: Marge encountering the wood chipper situation and exclaiming, “Oh Jeez.”

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

"Hope" This is my 2nd standalone embroidery. No pattern, just freehanding what was originally just something to practice new-to-me stitches, and it took on a life of its own. This is my peaceful place among the stressors. #handembroidery #embroidery
Hand embroidery of a figure whose hair is blowing in the wind, represented by light blue swirls on a variety of darker blues. There is a su. Peeking out behind an abstract cloud in the sky. This figure is among a field of various leaves and flowers in pinks, oranges, lavender and reds on various greens. Dotted with yellow French knot buds.
The fabric is a tone on tone white/grey cotton polka dot. The text under it is 1/1, "hope." And the signature lyc '25

It's traditions like today that bring together all our branches of government to stand in respect of each other - that underpins the guardrails of our democracy. The only power that the Constitution truly recognizes is power that's capable of humbling itself before our people.

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

So Justin Trudeau is now saying the tariffs have been paused for 30 days as they implement a new border plan. Basically, after the markets freaked, Trump backed off of the threats while Mexico and Canada essentially promised to do things that they were already doing.
