If RFK wants to meaningfully decrease rates of depression, he can support paid family and maternity leave, equal pay for women, universal healthcare, and fully funded public schools.
Stigmatizing medication that treats the mental impact of a country that devalues your existence won’t cut it.

A bit of dramatic cuteness among the madness.
I don't live in the US, but I grew up in Germany and seeing history repeating itself under a thunder of applause is devastating.

I’m looking for my people. If you like contemporary art with an ethereal edge, botanical art, and human rights, I think you’d love my artwork! 🥰❤️

Remember:
It can be sad. It can be tragic. It can be disgusting and depressing and discouraging.
But it doesn’t have to mean this is who we are now. It’s what our country is doing right now and that’s not the same as who we are.
Who we are isn’t up to him.

The Internet is so good for stuff like mutual aid and keep people informed amid crisis. Like, when I feel despair--and these days I often do--it's a small encouragement to be reminded that when we are proximal to suffering, we are capable of extraordinary generosity.

Yes. Yes, I do.
Do you ever wake up in the morning wishing you were Godzilla due to wanting to crush a very specific annoying human being, or is that just me.

We launched a crowdfunding campaign at Creative Nexus with the goal of providing stipends to our artists during their residency. Blown away to be almost 10% of the way to our goal on day two! #artistcommunity #supportingthearts

Hello, beautiful people! I’m Stephanie, artist, writer, thinker, mom, and pretty confident I have ADHD to go along with my chronic illness. I think nature can teach us how to live, and I’m going all in on community over capitalism.
