Was sick of my batteries and chargers being strewn about in my work van, and as #ridgid doesn’t yet have a multi-battery charger, I had to create my own. Easily transports and stores 8 batteries and two double battery chargers. Not sure what I’m going to do about the cords yet. Would love to splice them together so that there is just one device to plug in, but something tells me that would void the lifetime warranty. #teamridgid #batteryholder

NeuroArts Blueprint has released a new report that explains, “how to grow and share the scientific knowledge showing art to be an extraordinary tool for promoting health and wellbeing in individuals and communities.”
“Scientific studies increasingly confirm what human beings across cultures and throughout time have long recognized: we are wired for art. The arts in all of their modalities can improve our physical and mental health, amplify our ability to prevent, manage, or recover from disease challenges, enhance brain development in children, build more equitable communities, and foster wellbeing through multiple biological systems.”

Pop Culture Collaborative announced the Becoming America Fund, “launching as an initial $3.5 million year-long initiative, designed to support pop culture artists, entertainment companies, and social justice movements to take hold of the cultural moment…”
“The Fund centers the innovation of Black and Indigenous people, People of Color (BIPOC), immigrants, and Muslim communities, focusing on women, trans, nonbinary, queer, and disabled artists, influencers, activists, and thought leaders,” said Pop Culture Collaborative. “Becoming America is especially timely given the culture war currently being waged by many of our national and local political leaders against these communities—many of whom are marching for their lives while disproportionately reeling from the trauma of the COVID-19 pandemic.”
