We speak with artist Shepard Fairey, best known for the Obama “Hope” poster, about the role of art in politics, the rise of fascism in the United States and more. Democracy Now!'s Amy Goodman spoke with Fairey in Los Angeles last week and toured his studio. Some of his recent artworks depict ICE agents with labels like “Domestic Terrorist,” used by Trump administration officials to describe protesters who oppose the administration's immigration crackdown. > Fairey says that while he doesn’t think of his art as propaganda, he also doesn’t shy away from the label. “If you want to call it propaganda, it’s meant to initiate a conversation, a counternarrative that isn’t happening in a robust enough way,” he says.

Fairey created the film poster for Steal This Story, Please!, the new documentary about Amy Goodman and Democracy Now!, which had its theatrical opening earlier in April.

I'd like to smooth some model prints and chemical is the only practical method (detail too small for sanding).

Are there any ABS or ASA filaments that look silverish like Pla silk? I do want to waste money on another grey spool.

Oh fuck, I can write a poem too?

Do you even know what be "you"

Entanglement determine reality

Matrix karmiquantm spirituality

Buddha say world is an illusion

Jesus say undo sin 4 salvation

Sin IS möbiation IS defilement

Winning life is 4 the repentant

Not to mention iddhi magicks

Or samadhi rise out of tragics

Nirvana and Samsara b same

Anger'll goes out like a flame

Navigating knot maze inside

Soul=feather; nothing 2 hide

From one's fetters, u unbind

Even devil can become kind

The mind is just puzzle, no?

What is sin; do u even know

Find out being the fool now

Wind up being true lol cow!

Cuz how did this happen 2I

I was once lost now can fly

Apple announced on Monday that it had named a replacement for Tim Cook as CEO, with head of hardware engineering John Ternus succeeding him on 1 September. Cook will stay at the company in the role of executive chair.

“It has been the greatest privilege of my life to be the CEO of Apple and to have been trusted to lead such an extraordinary company. I love Apple with all of my being,” Cook said in a press release.

Cook, who succeeded Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, has been CEO since 2011. He has overseen the global expansion of the company and its steady series of new, updated devices, though never attained the same tech visionary status as Jobs.

Cook’s tenure as CEO has marked a lucrative period of expansion for Apple as it entrenched its products in society and sought out new markets, in particular the iPhone. Apple reported earlier this year it had its best ever quarter for iPhone sales, driven by renewed demand in China. The company’s market capitalization grew from around $350bn at the start of Cook’s time to over $4tn today.

Last year 219 people were seriously injured on Seattle streets, the majority of whom were driving or passengers, and around a third were pedestrians…As for deaths, 27 people died in traffic collisions last year, and the majority (18) were people walking.

People on Seattle streets interact with Vision Zero projects everyday: dozens of “No Turn on Red” signs, increased intersection visibility, and speed humps.

Advocates testified before [Seattle city] council members that they already know where the problem is…“And the ingredient that’s been missing has not been a lack of ideas or commitment from Seattle Department of Transportation, it’s been a lack of political will.”

It got me thinking: I had the freedom to turn around any time I wanted. I felt the desire to turn around somewhere between the start and end of the street. But I ended up walking to an end of the street as marked by a street sign. It felt better, mentally, to stop at a preexisting stopping point/boundary than to do it somewhere where a point/boundary wasn't marked out. Human tendency towards order, I suppose (aside from those of us who choose chaos). Neat little quirk of human brains.

Synchronicity sends me out to the campus again. Doesn't directly say that, but it is implied and I know it is what the aliens are talking about because I know the goal is exposure therapy, as it has been Their long-standing goal to condition me to be ready for my mission. I am there currently, or close, heart rate elevated from more than just pedaling.

On the way here, where I am sitting on a stone slab in the shade, I heard a distinct shutter click sound behind me. Whatever it was, God was telling me they are taking pictures of me/recording. This is a memirage; a false axiom that God sets up through what I believe might have been a speed camera to make me believe the message and that guides my behavior through magick intention-setting.

Vince had this story about how he knew he was being watched by a sniper and this made him keep his eyes locked forward. The Illuminati used that on me while I was in Miami Beach to condition me out of my maladaptive attention coordination, thanks to porn.

But this has me on edge. Already, I've accidentally looked/peeked at some flesh. It just happens! I don't want to! I look, eyes themselves moving, and it is blurred and I can't see what I'm exactly looking at until it refocuses, and at an unfortunate frequency, much less now than ever before, my eyes just “snap” to a butt or something.

There's girls near me waiting for the crosswalk, and they are, no, I can't think, I was trying to talk about my own thoughts, which became about them, so I started talking about them. I don't want to look, so the act of censoring part of the brain innately activates it. Don't think of a purple cow!

The conscious mind is like the tip of the iceberg. What you think is “you” is just a tiny fraction of what really is going on behind your eyes. Even if I don't perceive any conscious processes involving these articles of flesh and skimpy clothing in my peripheral, there's some daemon in me working with that information and influencing the mechanisms of my mind.

The more you resist the temptation to look at boobs n butts n stuff, the easier it gets, until it goes away. I don't have any temptation anymore. I am disentangled from that. Therein, the background processes of my mind do their thing, and micromistakes happen, and that I believe is one thing they want me to condition outta myself, because in traveling and being here, I am forced to correct these things.

It is easy to do the dead stare eight feet in front of me. It's hard navigating because I have to move my head and eyes and people are everywhere. So it's awkward, and I often fixate on a spot in space where there is no one and…there's a camera shutter sound. I don't know where that was, there it is again! I'm leaving.

Hubei province is home to China's automotive industry, with over two thousand local suppliers.

Suizhou is a major manufacturing center for the specialty and heavy truck segment.

*Chinese factory groups work directly with companies and governments across the world, thereby going around middleman companies, agencies, and dealer networks, which are prevalent in North America and Western Europe. *

By dealing directly with Chinese factories and their engineering teams, global buyers slash their procurement costs, and maintenance and repair expenses.
