Putin will pocket Trump’s naive concessions and demand much more. Appeasement makes a wider war more likely, not less.

Here is some truth: Putin invaded Ukraine. NATO is the most successful military alliance in history. Since 1945, American leadership has ensured freedom and security for ourselves and millions of others around the world.

Believe in your art 🏳️‍🌈

I unironically use my local library a lot. Ebooks, audio books, physical books, the seed exchange, the meeting spaces?? Passport services?? Citizenship and English classes? I grew up in the teen hangout area as a housing insecure youth with a bad parent. Libraries are important, I'm pissed

they never tell you this but one of the most parts of the artistic process is having Evil Time™️ where you sleep for 12 hours then eat a bunch of hot pockets and play video games til 4am

Productive and pleasant morning:
Hour-long gym session, leisurely stroll along shore, then home for some gratuitous gastronomy 👌

I still get comments of people blaming me for ruining Dragon Age but the truth is that if I made the game that I wanted, it would be 50 hours of pure Solas. Crying with sweat glistening on his naked chest as he sits at an easel painting Lavellen. They'd reunite, he'd grovel for 20 hrs and then smash

no one has won video games as much as guitar hero fans have. it seemed like it was over but they now exist in the exact window of popularity where there's a thriving subculture around free games with endless community charts but not so popular that activision are making an awful live service

I should be asleep, but here I am #drawing

I have a degenerative wrist condition that limits how long I can continuously paint. That means I stress out about getting enough art finished to survive, so I often work 6-7 days a week. But I am happy to report I took today off! Taking days off is good for both physical & mental health, duh Laci.

I’m just saying, this would be a REALLY great year for a Canadian team to win the Stanley Cup. #CanadaStrong #ElbowsUp #TeamCanada

Several weeks ago, with the help of Cat 1 and Cat 2, I made the ultimate calming GIF to use this Sunday morning. Please share with anyone in mental distress. It is not to be used by Blades, for they must suffer for their crimes!!

Mary Prince escaped in 1828, sharing her story and those of enslaved women. In 1831, The History of Mary Prince became the first account of a Black enslaved woman’s life published in the UK, inspiring the anti-slavery movement. 158 days to Slavery Remembrance Day. #CountDowntoSRD
