Thank you for this.

This is a terrifying playbook these guys are running. I wish they had all just gone to fucking therapy.

I can't believe we're facing the end of democracy because a bunch of over-privileged man-children didn't want to grow up.

This is a very important thread ⬇️
Listen, Broligarchy is not some cute synonym for oligarchy. It's genuinely different & WAY more dangerous.

I'm a sociologist who's been studying the ultra-rich globally for 17 yrs, entering their world as an offshore wealth mgr. Published 2 books abt them.

🧵Broligarchs are distinct in 3 ways:
There’s a sort of Trump apologist, a relatively small but loud subset, who probably don’t realize or intend to be, but are so attached to a previous hyperbolic claim that they deny anything important changed.

-US was already an oligarchy
-US was already fascist
-Biden gave Israel a blank check
-Etc

Sharing my #whimsigoth Babushka #babayaga (my Hermit tarot card design) since I have pics of the prints and it just makes me so happy whenever I look at this one. (I still struggle with 🎨 humans but proud of this one).🖤💀

My tarot deck is still a WIP and feel very good about my one card per week goal! I think my “Lovers” card may be my new favorite—“Two for joy.”🖤🐦‍⬛ These cuties are available as a giclee print via my Etsy shop. Trying to dig myself out from under the Gen AI avalanche/overly saturated market. 😅

Ah 💩 I realize my photos were not uploading. 😅 Oops! Still trying to get the hang of bsky. I feel like a grandma navigating social media for the first time ever on here. 😂

So excited to share that my Baba Yaga art print is now available. Had so much fun with this piece and am sad to be finished. Deeply inspired by my Slavic roots. Also ft as The Hermit card in my tarot deck! 🖤💀🐦‍⬛

One of my first paintings—I decided to give it another go as my skillset has considerably improved since then. What a difference a year makes! So proud of myself for working hard and sticking with this. 🖤🎨🐦‍⬛

Dogs are so hard to draw wtf (one of my current goals is to get better at drawing dogs/wolves/coyotes — they are in fact so difficult for me to draw that I don’t enjoy drawing them at all and actively avoid drawing them, lmao.😅 Just need more practice. 🎨🐾

My anxiety has been pretty bad as Jan draws near. My dad told me to tune out of the news/sm for now (trying to limit myself) and focus on my art. So finished up my Yule Cat painting. 🐈‍⬛ 🎨🖤

(My work area is chaotic as I evidently mix paint everywhere including on my desk lmao—😅 )

@mangionecommunity.bsky.social staunch supporter of LM and this cause! Felt inspired to dedicate the Judgement card to this for my work-in-progress tarot deck and because art/creating helps me wade through the unknown and navigate the chaos.

Hello, bsky world! I have no idea what I'm doing, but excited to be here as I am staunchly anti-Gen-AI and am lost as to how to promote my work. Self-taught starving artist & am hoping to connect with other small artists and creative folks. 🎨 Guess I’ll start by sharing my Yule Cat illustration. 🐈‍⬛❄️
