today is the first time since 1988 that the united states is not observing world AIDS day
in fact, per STAT, the state department has forbidden federal employees AND GRANTEES to not utilize any funding to promote or commemorate this day

A great thread and applicable to my industry. Friends in the biz ask why I don't want to use AI to shotlist or draft ideas. Because that is *what* I love; the maddening, mysterious, staring into space or the blank page and connecting to creative ideas from the ether. That's the whole f'ing thing.
I’m still thinking about this and it really is one of those “everyone thinks Elon Musk is a genius until he gets involved in your field” moments. I’m gonna be a total bore and think about this seriously, please don’t read on if you don’t care what a landscape architect thinks about this shit… 1/?
Oh shit waddup

“Strong Floor No Ceiling!” chant all the people who say they can’t support Defund the Police or Black Lives Matter because “they’re bad slogans that nobody understands.”

Now I've started reading LESSONS IN MAGIC AND DISASTER by @charliejane.bsky.social and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. As a pagan, I find the portrayal of magic in the book fascinating so far. Plus, the novel is pleasingly relevant those of us currently laboring in the arts and academia. #booksky

I don't see why I have to be the one to determine the next wave of Ska, it's too much pressure I never asked for that responsibility

One of my fundamental beliefs is that I should not have to talk to people who have been cruel to me. You might be surprised to learn how often -- and vociferously -- people disagree with me about that.

I've talked about it before but the AIDS Quilt and the project of memorializing queer stories through tangible physical objects is fundamental to how I want to make art and the methods and mediums I choose. This is such a loving interactive digital archive, and I am so sad and glad for it.

Found a typo a few hours after I sent the calendar to the printer. Well. I guess it would be wrong for it to actually be perfect. It’s gorgeous and also has at least one typo.
Well look who finally showed up! Get your hot hot hot off the press copy of the 2026 mama calendar Saturday at the New Orleans Bookfair or order one (or several) and I’ll mail them to you, or arrange a rendezvous if you’re local.
