id: the first image has a light blue background, the top text is blue and says together we can stop mask bans! Under that the text, we demand the right to protect ourselves & our communities from sickness and surveillance. under that it says long Covid Justice. The second image, is a tweet from Dr. Lucky Tran, text is his tweet saying That is zero evidence that mask bands prevent crime. The end goal of mask bans is the scare people away from exercising their first amendment rights to protest, and to give cops more power to target, black and brown communities.

jumping on the "regional Miku" bandwagon a bit late, but here's "Champlain Valley/Plattsburgh NY Miku" 🌲

the plushie she's holding is of Champ (AKA "Champy") the legendary lake monster said to live in Lake Champlain.

weirdly specific? maybe. but the idea came to me today and i couldn't just let it be an idea.

I Love New York (stylized I ❤ NY) is a slogan, a logo, and a song that are the basis of an advertising campaign developed by the marketing firm Wells, Rich, and Greene under the directorship of Mary Wells Lawrence used since 1977 to promote tourism in the state of New York. The trademarked logo, owned by the New York State Department of Economic Development, appears in souvenir shops and brochures throughout the state, some licensed, many not.

"I Love New York" is the official state slogan of New York. The logo was designed by graphic designer Milton Glaser in 1976 in the back of a taxi and was drawn with red crayon on scrap paper. The original drawing is held in the Museum of Modern Art in Manhattan. The song was written by Steve Karmen and its copyright was donated by him to the state.
