Disabled people take a huge risk every time we organise against disability cuts. There have been cases of presence at an action being used to cut off eligibility, because the DWP wilfully misrepresents disability. This is why we need the rest of you.

We have strength in #'s and diversity, They fear our organized solidarity. Do not let their outdated fear tactics paralyze you from taking action. We currently have 134,585 individuals who've signed the digital strike card. You are not alone, We are not outnumbered we are out organized.

Wowza I called my reps yesterday and I was shocked that I actually got through to a person. My flabbers were ghasted. It really took me no time at all. Do it. I might start calling them more, just to chat about my day.
This is NOT an ideological fracture in the party. Mods like Cortez-Masto and folks like Warren are fighting back.

Tell your reps/senators you're watching! Indivisible put together a brief and call scripts for both Dem and GOP Reps and Senators. Please use it and send it around: indivisible.org/omb

*sigh* I don’t even know what to do.
NEW: My staff has confirmed reports that Medicaid portals are down in all 50 states following last night's federal funding freeze. This is a blatant attempt to rip away health care from millions of Americans overnight and will get people killed.

Planning the piece in Jan 2024

Making the piece in October 2024. Sometimes the little choices make the #art come together.

I’m really excited to get back to building foam #rocks for an upcoming solo #exhibition.

“Beating” 2024

Apologies for spam. I’m trying to update all of my #art images from Instagram.

I’m disappointed about leaving as I did have somewhat of a supportive network and big things coming up I wanted to share. Unfortunately it’s difficult to start over.
