Do you think the presidency and representatives of the U.S. will ever get back to a point where there is almost zero tolerance for blatant crime and money laundering? Having 300+ accounts for Trump closed by Capital One would have been weeks of news and have a decent president forced to step down.

PBS says I’m an Artist. Creative with a home base in the little city of Rochester NY.
“Whatever Idiot, why don’t you just go back to your science” This was something a complete moron said to me online thinking that that somehow was an insult. 😂
Just saw a Kalshi ad that starts off with “do you trust your weather app?” Meaning they are pushing the ads narrative that their gambling app w/ their data, random guesses from their user base, is somehow the more logical choice than the entire meteorological branch of sciences & NOAA itself…
In honor of Trump "resting his eyes" at Lindsey Graham's funeral, a flashback to that sleepytime favorite, "Goodnight Buffoon." (All links are free. Subscriptions, too. <--That's hint.) fightthefire.substack.com/p/goodnight-...
Goodnight buffoon
*With apologies to Margaret Wise Brown (although she'd despise him too)

Siiiiigh. Decided to take time and work at a diner. Figured it would be nice to get back in this habit. Only to find out both my iPad and my battery backup didn’t charge last night… Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh.
Seeing the sister of Lyndsey Graham, with literally zero experience, getting appointed to his job, is just pointing out that it’s apparently not a hard job being a senator if you can literally drop any random person in there at any time without worry. I’m just so tired of the stupidity.
A little Jamal #DCC fanart for this week's drawing challenge, with the theme "Shark Attack". He's more likely to attack with apologies though. (I had to draw him, since I was finding way too many AI slop renditions of him.) #dungeoncrawlercarl #dccfanart
Sure I just watched a whole thing on the 2026 Japanese Stationery Awards. Cool stuff like that I always love to see. Gadgets and everyday awesomeness like a good pen or erasure that works speaks to me.
Had an idiot post I had TDS, I kept messing with him saying I don't have Trump 'Devotion' Syndrome. That he did. He argued how it's derangement, & just kept responding. I asked why he's saying he's deranged, etc. Wasted an hour of his time till he blocked me. Things I do on my lunch break to cope...
The weird fact that a flooring and carpet person was seen leaving Mitch McConnell’s house… that’s probably a sign of some type…
Three U.S. Presidents have died on July 4th, all in years ending in 6. Thomas Jefferson - 1826 John Adams - 1826 James Madison - 1836 In other news Trump announced he will give a 2 hour speech at DC rally at 1pm on the 4th of July… where it’s expected to be +100 degrees w/ high humidity.
Discord & some social medias outlets that love the use of GIFs, you’ll notice a big change as of June 30th, Google is shutting down GIF provider Tenor's public API. So all Apps that rely that to source GIFs will lose direct access to the entire library. Why? More room for data centers & AI.

If this is double stuffed I shudder to comprehend the atom wide layer the thin Oreos must be. This is shockingly sad that this is what double stuff Oreos have become. Out of curiosity; Does anyone know of similar cookies brands that offer what double stuff originally was?
When reality surpasses fiction! Top: fictional forecast for August 2050, broadcast by French TV in 2014 to warn about the consequences of global warming. Bottom: Real French forecast for yesterday, June 22, 2026.
I am telling you that for the 4th of July this year all of my decorations will be red, white, and this color… Happy 250th to the U.S…
wtf… Apple products have really gotten bad. Phone has issues constantly. But now my iPad & iPhone can’t see each other for airdrop. (Even when everyone is selected) iMessage isn’t syncing. THEN at 3am last night my iPad “findmy” alert goes off & I get an alert it was just added to my products?!?
I don’t know how to put into words how absolutely horrendous a medical warehouse fire is at a time that Trump has fucked up the global economy and trade. The products in that building weren’t all made there. It’s just shipped from other countries. The ripples from this event might be devastating.
Weird thing for today: Had to finally unfriend the dude from that 80s band Was (not Was) from Facebook. I had completely forgotten he added me as a friend back when I was in the software industry. He’s going off on pro-Trump stuff. You can walk that dinosaur right the fuck outta here…
The fun I had at @magnusapollo.bsky.social's birthday party last night gave these kids speed builds of both Spider-Man and Captain America! #pipecleanerart
I got new art AND a new friend in one! (All thanks to the amazing artist and human being @magnusapollo.bsky.social! 💜⭐) #AnomalyFilmFest #potato #gremlin
Small action to do today. There are suggestions for what to write in the thread below to make it even quicker and easier.
Hey so if you're in the USA, the FCC is floating the idea of making shows put a warning up if they include or discuss trans people and trans lives. A short paragraph saying this is messed up would help a lot! You gpt less than a week. Submit your comment by May 22: www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings...
Between Trump’s family & businesses now completely immune to IRS audits & scrutiny, to this $1.7 Billion to the coup relief fund for Jan 6ers, I just am feeling so done and hopeless on the future of this country. It’s disgusting. Not that America was perfect, but there was less overt corruption.

A giant middle finger statue facing City Hall in NYC.😅 I have to chuckle; doubt sculptor Lovaido realizes how little effect that would have on the mayor. it’s pretty much the NYC hand gesture of choice. Momdani should laugh, flip off the camera, say thanks for agreeing art & speech are important.
You’d sure fight a lot harder against them if you called them “surveillance Centers” that use that vague “data”. What data do you think they want?

Just having to resend a release form for a film I'm in and they spelled my last name wrong. resend the form and apparently it didn't open, and in every email they have sent me they spell my first name wrong. I had to write back to them pointing out how they need to make sure it's right on film!!

Sad I couldn't make the Roc Indie Comic Expo, but I do want to say that the poster for it has to be one of the best rochester posters I've ever seen. Don't know who made it, but please give them a high-five for me if you do.
