I posted this cartoon last week for the European elections (with the EU logo on the stone), but this was actually the initial cartoon idea I had, which works just as well I think...

Online discourse: "You have to convince me to vote for Joe "

Why? I don't like Joe Biden. The idea that anyone has to convince you to fall in love with Joe Biden is as absurd of a assertion as the cult and , that is about passion

We don't view politics as a love affair. It's tactics. And more importantly, it's your to vote

, , the , etc.: issues you care about, or should care about

But ...

Trump said "finish the problem" about Gaza in March. He would greenlight for to unleash genocide on

So you're asserting your single-issue concern as more important than other issues, and you're even wrong on that one issue

Biden sucks, but Trump and Biden are the only two who have a chance of winning. Again: , not

manipulation is how moves to topple , those are here on

Also while we debate the notion of / not voting we need to consider two other forms of players here:

They dont care about anything except watching the world burn. For lulz

Whether of the or / variety, their point is to play , cosplaying , and advance their / agendas by suppressing the vote

Trolls are out and about now on social media, more active than I've seen them of late. Several reasons:

  1. The 2024 election in the US, with enormous consequences hinging on it, will bring them out more and more.

  2. Putin and his US fangirl Marjorie Taylor Greene (i.e., MAGA itself) just got handed a humiliating defeat.

  3. The Orange One is on trial, has to sit in a courtroom and keep his big mouth shut.

It's important to be aware that a lot of trolling accounts disguise themselves as something/somebody other than who they actually are. They try to bait us into futile discussions of issues that are imporant – but that they themselves don't intend to discuss, since discussion is not their goal.

Above all, their goal is to sow confusion, spread disinformation, and divide in order to conquer. We must not let folks like this win.

I finally made the trek to meet Bruunidun. She’s a giant making her home next to Puget Sound in Lincoln Park in West Seattle. Idun is playing a troll sized flute to call home native .

Go ! And trolls!

Yesterday I visited Bruun Idun, again, (“Eden” for short).

She’s still chillin in the foresty forest of Lincoln Park, West Seattle, next to Puget Sound, playing her flute to summon resident orcas home.

This is currently my favorite walk. It’s 2 miles round trip and gives me forest, beach time and is just right.


Head and torso of a female troll rendered in wood, shot from underneath the giant troll, capturing her left side, the forest and turquoise sky peaking through the forest above her. She has twiggy long hair and is playing a wooden flute. A beachy bracelet and a second bracelet made from wildflowers entwine her right wrist.
