Old trans lesbian, mom & grandma, artist (digital and pen/ink), sidekick to Captain Cookies (aka my bloodhound Jazz). Becoming Jewish 💙🤍💙✡️
HUMAN ARTIST, use only one piece to convince people to follow you.
Basically, don't be this guy, insulting older adults who need diapers, because Trump is a bad person....
@kosherart.bsky.social Exploring with my new fude fountain pen. I love the range of marks it enables! #Art #Abstract #PenInk
Yes, and also, 'Israel' means "wrestles/argues with G-d". Judaism is not about blind obedience or submission. It's about searching and testing for "MORE truth, not THE truth" (my first Rabbi). Israel is who we are, as Jews. @sandabluedeux.bsky.social
We can agree that the IRGC is monstrous and also insist that the US lacks the capacity to change the Iranian regime. We have tried this kind of project for 80 years, and we keep failing. Maybe accept that we suck at this and find another solution.
So I was walking this big sweetie this morning, and pondering the names we give modern wars. ENDURING FREEDOM. EPIC FURY. Feels like they're all variations on GODLY ERECTION. Or as Hegseth would say: "warrior ethos". Except ... that turns routine assholes into supervillains. So, instead... 1/2
Okay, but "Let's do WW2 again!" has failed ever since. After 80 years of repeated failure, maybe it's time to admit that was a fluke and had more to do with the Marshall Plan postwar than the war itself? Also, WW1, the 1919 Influenza pandemic, and WW2 killed 10% of the global population. Not good.
Jazz stopped twice to lift a paw so I could warm it for him. He loves snow but the bitter cold bothers his paws.
Experiments with shape design: big, medium, small, patterns. Also with different kinds of marks. #Art #drawing #PenAndInk
First time voting in NY state! Straight D ticket. So easy! #Vote25
So today our new coat stand arrived. It's Shabbat and we're not supposed to work, but I decided to try to assemble it. It was so easy. The prayer for healing kept running through my head, coz I love its song. The pieces went together so smoothly that it didn't feel like work.
Here's an experiment from a couple of weeks ago: pen/ink and three colors of graphite (aux trois crayons).
