I feel like people need reminding: We have acknowledged #Juneteenth here for generations, without acknowledgement from the federal gov’t or corporate sponsorship. We will continue to do so. Them folks can only gentrify our holiday if we let them.

I can absolutely see how the stress of racism killed our parents and grandparents generations. Why everybody was sick for years before they died. The stress of this has been 2 weeks and I feel like Im choking everyday. Im so happy I have my friends and my new gym and my God.

Hey fam, lots of y'all know I foster a few pigeons every year. I've taken in a new foster, Peaches, who needs ongoing medical care. Being an out of work animation artist isn't ideal, but I couldn't just let him starve abandoned outside.
