This is one of three Swoon pieces being auctioned at an incredible art show at ABC No Rio. This seedy, hot, little art and performance space is on the Lower East Side. The art is spectacular. The show continues tonight. Don’t miss it. It must be cooler tonight than it was last night.
All proceeds from the show will benefit the legal fund of local
environmental and social justice activist Daniel McGowan, who
currently faces life plus 335 years in prison on federal charges of
arson, property destruction, and conspiracy. Daniel was arrested
during Operation Backfire, a multi-state sweep of environmental
activists who have now been charged with virtually every unsolved
earth and animal liberation case in the Northwest. Daniel has pled not
guilty to all charges.

Great show, pity we can’t make it
The Stop Bloomberg piece reminded me of something I find amusing.
In the Shakespearian English the past participle of the verb “to con” would have been pronounced ConEd.
