She/they. Someone once said I make adorable art with bones and flowers. I just like dead things and internal organs, I guess.
I love having over 2 decades of experience in professionally managing budgets and being constantly questioned about my competence by someone 10 years younger than me with zero experience

I fear I have run out of anger - I have no more energy to fight this losing battle. Hatred has won and I am simply too tired.

Mother’s Day makes me depressed. I lived as a completely ignored step mother for -years until the kid who was programmed to hate me cut all contact.

Spending my morning doing patient advocacy - this is something I have done lightly for over 15 years but was limited by my career for a good portion of that time. Now I can be as active as I want and it feels good.

I don’t give a fuck about Christian holidays but I am seriously hoping this weekend means my brain can have a day off from the Nazi in Chief and his staff.

I cried. Fleury is forever my goalie. He is forever a Penguin to me. 🖤
Heading into overtime, having already clinched a spot in the #StanleyCup Playoffs, the @mnwild put Marc-Andre Fleury in net. 🌸
The Wild won the game in the extra frame, and everyone in the building got to show their love for Flower after his final regular season game. 💚

It’s exhausting knowing that no matter how much I want to believe it won’t happen, no matter how much I fight it, I’m probably months away of being sent to a camp. My family escaped the Russian pograms just for the United States to finish the job.

Racist administration pushes racist propaganda and buries the non-racist reality.
THREAD: The Trump administration's DOJ has removed a study from the NIJ website that found that immigrants, and particularly undocumented immigrants, commit crimes at significantly lower rates than U.S. citizens.
The study is at odds with the Trump regime's propaganda about immigrants & crime. (1)

My dad’s family is a Catholic. My aunt, hosts Easter every year. She is also a staunch Trump supporter, as are her in laws who also attend. My husband and I are not attending this year. Last year, they congregated to mock those of us who don’t think like them. She was surprised we’re not coming.

I know this is cranky old lady of me because it’s Friday night but I’m exhausted and I work tomorrow. There’s kids playing football in the street, screaming at the top of their lungs. They do this every day if the weather is remotely nice. I just want to go to bed but the shouting keeps me awake.

The absolute exhaustion that comes from flooding my body with anti-tnf is crippling. I am so grateful that this treatment works but man do I want to sleep all day.

Existential Dread and Creative Ideas
Some artists, when faced with horror, immediately jump into creation. I am not one of them.

Every day I hope that Teddy Roosevelt will rise from the grave as a zombie to declare war against the current administration because they dared to mess with his national parks.

Look y'all I HATE RFK Jr as health secretary but can we STOP using his past heroin addiction as the most important reason to disqualify him from the position?
This rhetoric is only making it worse for the rest of the people in recovery. Increasingly stigma around addiction does no one any good.

I had a cyst on my foot drained at the end of last year and it’s already back. It hurts so I will need to go back to the podiatrist. He warned me that it’s possible it will eventually require surgical removal and that makes me so stressed. Selling art means being on my feet.

In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse.
The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million

Snow and ice predicted this weekend so the event I was scheduled for has been postponed. This is good because the raccoon that finally degreased yesterday can now be turned into brand new art to start the year off on the best possible foot.
