In my dream In my dream I catch two different guy's hands in my pockets lifting cash. New Jersey is tougher to walk through at night than I thought.

In my dream In my dream the windows of the antique shop glow in the orange morning light. The streets leading down to Market are slowly filling.

I keep beating this drum, but for a reason; most of the information in the world is not on the internet, but most people think it is. We have been told for over two generations that the internet does or will soon hold all human knowledge. This is not only false, it is far from the truth.

We are seeing an increased ICE presence in NYC - making it imperative that NYers KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. I wrote a comic with @mayor.nyc.gov @nycimmigrants.bsky.social @davidhahn.bsky.social @elllewrightart.bsky.social @tayloresposito.bsky.social to do that! DOWNLOAD: www.weteachnyc.org/resources/co...

Lady Pink was born in the Andes and her mom was born in the Amazon rainforest. She was the only girl in Basquiat's art circle. Only 17, making art, and hanging with Basquiat and Bowie... NYC grafitti police have been harassing her and her husband, so she had to leave NYC. Leave Lady Pink alone!!!

In my dream In my dream the meat arrives.

Love has never needed permission from labels 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 My emptiness of gender lets me see that clearly. Anxiety tightens around transgender lives right now. Why must their chosen bonds still pass through someone else’s gate? Why is the soul they claim treated as a request instead of a right?
