Homer’s The Odyssey 🏛️
My first time attempting to deboss by hand without foiling. The gold and silver on the cover is calligraphy ink I tried to paint into the pattern.

Every six months or so I’m reminded that this is one of the most true things anyone has ever said.

The Israeli military is committing genocide against Palestinians at the fastest rate since October 2023. Since the Israeli government violated the ceasefire nearly a week ago, the Israeli military has killed nearly 700 Palestinians, including at least 400 women and children.

Whether it is politically or interpersonally, what's in your mind & heart simply does not matter unless it is reflected in your day-to-day actions.
Individualism in our society has gotten us to believe that we are the best arbiters of everything about ourselves, but we do not live this life alone.

Important to point out that America did not *just* become a fascist nation; we have always been a fascist nation but with liberal/neoliberal governance.
Now we are a fascist nation with fascist governance. The machinery didn't change, the drivers did.

I have a horrible habit of gradually using more and more pressure when hand foiling, and I end up burning holes thru my bookcloth.

Most of the big destructive moves that Trump and Elon have made only relate to what they personally care about. Elon hates USAID bc they fought apartheid, and Labor bc his workers are unionizing. Trump loves fancy parties and renaming things. And they hate DEI bc they’re racist. Pretty simple shit!

Expecting there to be something someone can do, or some move the opposition party can pull, or some senator who is finally convinced by a phone call is a direct line to madness.
Do what you feel helps, whatever that may be. But don’t expect yourself or anyone else to have a true solution.

It feels and looks pretty legit. I sprayed the case down with varnish to seal and protect the colors. I was also asked to preserve the front of the original soft cover.
Cover art is originally painted by Annie Stegg Gerard.

If someone makes a suggestion that does not work for you because of a disability, that is not ableism. That is just a thing that does not apply to you.
Please y’all, we gotta be able to have basic conversations without qualifying every statement with “unless this doesn’t apply to you specifically”
