I found a big sign at the thrift shop with some live/laugh/love stuff on it, so I painted over that with my to-do list. Feel free to make it yours, too.

The fact that anyone, anywhere, ever, that gives a fuck about diamonds/rubies/etc. actually CARES whether or not their stone is natural or lab grown is the ultimate testament to human irrationality.

Many of us learned long ago that there is no "Legal Philosophy" in the Federalist Society. It is a club that gives members a leg up in the competition for certain judicial clerkships and jobs in the Trump administration. That is it. Period.

How does the NY Times not know this?

My earliest memory is wanting to go to space. I also took apart anything and everything I could to see how it worked as a kid using my Grandpa's glasses repair kit screwdrivers.
What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

Gah, sucks to be an East European immigrant. The same bozos who villify you (Poles & Romanians were scapegoats for Brexit) with xenophobia and anti-migrant populism, also platform and facilitate fascist Russia which has been invading, murdering and destroying East European countries for decades.
So the line is that he wasn't getting paid for any of this

I think sometimes about the advent of Square's POS dongle. (This was before tap-to-pay.)

Nobody had to tell anyone they had no choice, this was the new normal, get used to it.

Nobody needed persuading this was THE FUTURE.

The only complaints I remember were about being waitlisted for one.

I really love a light source and other artist's abilities to make the viewer feel emersed in a time and place. So I'm playing with colors and glow a bit rather than working completely flat. (I still love experimenting, learning and changing)

On one side of my family we have zero knowledge of our lineage before my grandpa. There was just nobody left to ask. He wasn’t even sure if his last name was real or made up. And there’s a story like this in almost every Ukrainian household.

Today is Holodomor Remembrance Day
🕯 Eternal memory to all victims of Holodomor. A moment of silence.
