Little WIP embroidery practice piece, almost done
❤️🧡🤍💗💜

Saw this on the drive to work- It felt symbolic :/ 🗑️🇺🇸

Starting #blackhistorymonth by listening to bell hooks Outlaw Culture. The only other book of hers I’ve read is All About Love, which was incredible- happy to be reading more. Also loving the #libby app. Yay libraries!

#booksky #bellhooks #feminism

Tuned into the Grammy’s just in time to see Chappell Roan perform! God she’s gorgeous and a much needed light. Crying right now, not even kidding lmao

A painting I did about Dermatillomania (skin picking) and more broadly #mentalhealthawareness
It’s a body focused repetitive behavior that is a common comorbidity for neurodivergent folks (and others.)
I get better and worse, but my hands are looking pretty rough at the moment. Giving myself grace 🤷🏻‍♀️

More sashiko repair on a cardigan- It feels good to fix things rather than get rid of them! I’m trying to only buy absolute necessities, and maintaining what I already own is a big part of that 🪡🧵

Felt like posting something bright and pink and gay this morning. ✨❤️🧡🤍💖💜✨

All collage materials from vintage Seventeen Magazines or playboys of the same era

A collage that feels appropriate for today.
Let us fight for freedom-
Go read MLK’s speeches, study history, turn off the mainstream news, make connections in our own communities, and do our best to protect the most vulnerable among us.

So I bought a porcelain doll the other day and now my targeted advertising looks like this. 💀
Honestly I am so here for it.

Visible mending “Project Jacket!” Combo of sashiko mending, embroidery, and winging it.

Current feelings: existential dread, overwhelm, and a desperate determination to hang on to hope 🤷🏻‍♀️
