Bluesky is a "liberal bubble" because fascist chuds can't get traction without algorithmic assistance and because people here trained themselves to block "debate me" trybois the instant they roll up

This is an interesting project. Despite everything, film photography is very active in Ukraine. There's a wonderful camera store and photolab in Kyiv, Fotovramci, and there's even Igor Polyakov in the Lviv area who is making his own film by hand: united24media.com/inside-ukrai... #filmphotography

The news has moved on, but ICE is still in Minneapolis. My neighbors are still patrolling streets, driving strangers to work, and providing aid. As a photojournalist at @propublica.org, I wanted to know: What do they look like in their daily lives? So I picked up my camera 👇
