Mask is off with only a minor mishap. Time for a few detail touch ups, painting in the sides, and varnish. I'll be done for the show! It opens Nov 5th at @btpbrewery.bsky.social at 7pm. Come see all the art, maybe buy some! (cash only!) #art #SciArt #invertart

An arrest warrant has been issued against Salvador's secretary of transport, one of Brazil's largest Lula-voting hubs, for keeping dozens of buses off the streets today. Again: what’s happening in Brazil is criminal.

There is blatant voter suppression happening right now in Brazil: flights cancelled and buses suspended to Northeastern capitals where Lula holds the majority, polling stations changed to thousands of kms away last-minute, voters in London told they need to go to Edinburgh… This is criminal.

And make them anti rapist. Study after study proves that when women are well educated, so are their children. So much so, it's predictive. Not men's education level. Women's. Children of women with masters, get masters. Same with bachelor's and phds. Consequences for rapists is deterent too>>

Here’s another example of abuse. Same as the Dana Bash clip, he attacks her for not giving him time to speak, then gaslights her about what’s in his lawsuit. I bet a lot of women recognize this behavior.

BRENNAN: The DOJ lawsuit demands the Alaska result not be certified if voters are confused. The confusion is defined as Sen. Sullivan not winning. BLANCHE: That's not what it says BRENNAN: I'm quoting from it. You are telling them not to certify it. What right does the federal govt have?

The best way to start litigating the Epstein Files is to go after the quiet stuff first, people who did things in the dark of night and never thought anyone would say anything. This is PB Sheriff’s Captain Mark Chamberlain, who approved Epstein’s work release. #EpsteinFiles

Here’s something you should know about minks: They have lungs and airways remarkably similar on a cellular level to those of people. They’ve spread flus and infected humans before with COVID-19. Right now, bird flu is spreading on a Utah farm filled with thousands of them… 🧵

We are learning so much more about the importance of prevention and yet see society as a whole (including scientists) doing so much less to protect themselves…Makes no sense. “COVID-19 can wake up dormant viruses in the body, large study confirms” www.science.org/content/arti...

Pretty Boy (2, orange) has been returned twice. He is friendly, gorgeous, and needs a barn or working cat home. He’s a nipper, so traditional indoor life isn’t his fit. 263 days waiting for the right setup. 🍊 #Tucson #AdoptDontShop #WhiskersNWishes

A woman in Arkansas was seeking care for a life-threatening miscarriage. Under the state’s strict abortion ban, no doctor would treat her. “Our hands are tied behind our backs,” one doctor told her. “Tell your friends to vote differently.” (Published May)

propublica.orgShe Faced a Life-Threatening Miscarriage. Under Arkansas’ Abortion Ban, Even Calls to the Governor’s Office Didn’t Help.Her case shows how abortion bans have left hospital lawyers, not doctors, deciding who gets care — and how lawmakers and regulators have failed to change that.

This is a periodic reminder there is a Washington citizen’s initiative on the ballot this election that would force any girls to have an intrusive genital inspection before participating in school sports. So, absolutely accurate.

Today, Emily Carr is an icon. But in 1913 the criticism of her first solo exhibition was so devastating she stopped painting. She couldn't even give her art away. That all changed in 1927 thanks to The Group of Seven. This is the story. 📸 RBCM 🧵 1/8

This virtual private clinic in BC charges exorbitant fees for basic blood tests that are publicly covered. A core part of the sales pitch is lying about how testing works in the public system. Preventative routine screening IS COVERED - this is essential primary care that FPs/NPs do regularly.

Most often, people hire me to draw clean, grayscale maps of real places. But sometimes people hire me to draw fantasy maps. And every once in a while, someone will hire me to draw a fantasy-style map of a real place. They make great presents, in case you're wondering. #maps #fantasymaps

Ossoff: "At a rally earlier this week in Ohio, the president egged on supports who assaulted a woman demanding the release of the Epstein files. Because if you can count on one thing from this White House, it's their tireless commitment to war, inflation, and covering up sex trafficking."

Ossoff: "He said he would rename Hormuz the 'Trump Strait.' The draft-dodging president tells jokes while 21 Americans are dead and hundreds wounded ... they've drained our stockpiles to achieve nothing while the crook commander in chief builds a monument to himself."

The blame for having an incompetent press secretary rests solely with Donald Trump, not Katie Zacharia. She can’t help that she’s incompetent, *he* chose to appoint her anyway. Just like he chose to appoint incompetent Pete Hegseth and incompetent RFK Jr.

I dropped my son off at school this morning knowing there would be extra security on campus because of what happened yesterday in Bend, Oregon. And I’m also angry. I’m exhausted. Nothing gets done! Our children deserve better. Fuck your thoughts & prays. Do something! Video by Andy Neal
