NANCY F*CKING PELOSI

THIS is the energy we need from EVERYONE.

Distill Social @distillsocial.bsky.social · 6h

Rep. Nancy Pelosi has had enough of the right wing-lies. As Dems continue to show up to try and make a deal to reopen the government, Pelosi was confronted by a reporter asking about January 6th. Pelosi snapped back telling her to "shut up".

What’s sexy? Let me tell you what’s truly sexy: Letterpress and the artists who live and work in this demanding obsession, I mean, vocation.

Appalachia Press @appalachiapress.bsky.social · 24d

Working into the night…sinking into the green, the rhythm, the solitude, and the hiss of the ink.

Can I speak to the manager, please?

I’m a VERY busy person. This situation is out of control. I barely have enough time to hate all these people, much less with the force of an exploding galaxy as they deserve. It’s truly confounding.

Recent etching — exploring the textures and quiet presence of old stone steps and doorways.
Grateful to Kate Teal for her influence and the inspiration she’s given me in approaching architectural subjects with sensitivity and patience.

Question: Do ANY of these people go home and drink themselves blind, blackout drunk to blot out the balderdash they spew and kill the pain of what they've become?

I understand that completely, and I respect people’s parameters as best I can. Cheers!

Dorian, I followed you because your art posts and work fascinate me. Please do not follow back since I post a fair amount of politics.

Flight to the Moon by Konstantin Kalynovch, 2018 (etching)
#KonstantinKalynovch #etching #art #surreal

This artwork is a surrealist print that depicts a group of figures and animals being pulled towards a large moon in the sky. The scene is set in a winter landscape with a detailed, rustic building on the right side.

Kollwitz was a revelation for me in my college days. I am reminded how exquisite and powerful her work is.

Dorian Pfeiffer - Artist & Writer @dorianpfeiffer.bsky.social · 2d

Went to the Käthe Kollwitz Museum in Ver today. Amazing #art works, very heavy, and at the same time beautiful! The details in her etchings are just out of this world. One of my new favorite artists! #artist #artworks #etching #darkart #femaleartist #artsky

"Language has been verbing for as long as it has languaged." New post on Agatha Christie – as a verb stancarey.wordpress.com/2025/10/11/t...

The White House itself tries—and fails—to keep Loomer away from Trump. But “the president likes her tenacity and loyalty,” Steve Bannon told me. “He sees her as a killer. And the fact that people are blocking her makes him pay attention more.”

Greg Olear @gregolear.bsky.social · 2d

I have been waiting for this @ninaburleigh.bsky.social piece on Laura Loomer, and it did not disappoint. Excellent piece.

Brilliant observation on Loomer and Trump

spincast-ag300.bsky.social @spincast-ag300.bsky.social · 2d

Basically, she’s stalking Trump & he has no problem with that. It makes sense that a raging narcissist would feel flattered by having a stalker.

On a side note, THANK YOU for sharing a picture of this glorious man.

In this corner: OCSN-49, a star cluster with hundreds of members wandering the galaxy

And in THIS corner: a diffuse giant molecular cloud with 100,000 times the Sun's mass just minding its own business

It's the CLASH of the EONS! Who will win?

Star cluster vs. giant molecular cloud: who wins?

The answer surprised me, and I do so love being surprised.
