People often assume that my Klingon side is where my anger comes from, but they're wrong. My Latina half is a deep well of rage, and moreso with every passing day.

A lone voice speaking truth may be drowned by a cacophonous enemy. But when true warriors stand together, add their voices to a chorus, the words gain the power to sweep away any perfidious clamor. Today of all days, add your voice, warriors, and sing for what's right.

Recall a time when someone came to your aid, stood up for you, showed you an unexpected kindness. Hold on to those memories, for they are dear. Strive every day to make someone else feel the way you did in that moment.
It might make more sense for you to judge their fathers instead.

Thinking of a hero I knew and admired.

There are those who celebrate ignorance and intolerance, cruelty and hate. Do not let them snuff out the light of honor, true warriors. Stoke its flames until all they can do is burn themselves on it.

Please be careful out there. 🙏🏽
Reports are coming in that Trump-era ICE agents have arrested even American-born citizens during raids. If you’re just heading to work or the grocery store, how would you prove you’re an American? This is getting out of hand—Americans have a right to privacy.

Here's a portrait I did of General Martok a few years ago.

Crockett: Any of us who have ever dated have been hoodwinked a time or two. We’ve sat there and thought he was going to be so great for us because he sold us on all the things and then we realized… they ain’t shit. That’s where we are.
One of the most polluted bodies of water 50 years ago, the East River has dolphins swimming in it while the EPA is being dismantled.

It's not just fdr. One of the things the epa did not long after it was formed was document the nation's pollution via photography. That can seem frivolous, but generations of Americans have no idea why the EPA was necessary. This broke a million views when we published it in 2017
This is what America looked like before the EPA cleaned it up

Goodnight beds, goodnight feds,
Time to rest your tired heads

Goodnight shoes, goodnight blues,
Take a break from following the news

Goodnight fears, goodnight tears,
AltCDC will still be here

Rest well everyone, we'll see you tomorrow!

We have to be perfect or they will fire us. So yes in many cases we are better and more consistent in our jobs.
Keep this in mind when you think about why the EPA should exist, and why we need its employees to carry on the agency mission. For the health and protection of all Americans.

I know there are grown-ups trying to help... But can they, and in time? I don't know.

I hope they go easy on USDA, you all do incredibly important work. Thank you for what you do!
