I think public core education should be extended to the age of 22. Idk how I was supposed to retain any information when high school was so overwhelmingly packed with info in such a short and confusing period of time. I wish education was extended, so middle school and high school could spend more time with fundamentals like math, science, reading/language, and art and sports. I think from 18 to 22, you should receive a free additional four years purely focused around history and economics and adult skills you'll need to navigate getting jobs and managing your life. I know that they tried to put it in high school, but there was just so much going on already. People need more time to learn at a healthier pace, and that is super clear to me in this current climate. All of this is on top of desperately needed funding, and well paid teachers with more manageable class sizes.

Some of Van Gogh’s best work was done during a period of his life that he spent in a hospital being treated for his mental health problems. I could be wrong but I think Starry Night was among those.

This is consistently the case. Creators tend to do their best work when they are in a healthy place and receiving proper treatment and not being self destructive in their efforts to cope. Go figure.

All our experiences, good and bad, inform what we create, but suffering is not the price of great art. Suffering is what prevents artists from completing great art.

My most referenced meme is actually this sign from a furniture store's going out of business sale in my hometown.

yeah "sans undertale/your mom" jokes will never fail to make me laugh, but I'm 100% serious when i say that his description of his and toriel's first meeting is one of the sweetest, most heartfelt bits of dialogue in the entire game

i was at a restaurant last week, watching the political ads on the TV between sports games. one from the trump campaign ended with the slogan “kamala is for they/them. trump is for you”. it was vilely clever - and it made a clear statement about who was the enemy, the other, the unwelcome, in trump’s great america. i thought about how the right had gone all-in on transphobia this election season, and i hoped it was a gamble that would cost them.

this week has been a gut punch, and i’ve been feeling a lot of things - rage, fear, grief, and subspecies of those emotions. what i kept coming back to, though, as i digested these feelings, were the people i love. my queer friends. the trans kids in my community. the people who, already, are losing their rights to bodily autonomy, state-by-state. the way that i’ve had to start looking at our country as a fucked up patchwork of safe and not-safe. the way that access to medical care, increasingly, changes depending on which side of an arbitrary border you’re on. i’m also realizing the ignorance and privilege it is to only think of our country this way, now. america has always been about picking and choosing who deserves rights, who we consider a person. but, despite the deep-seated flaws of this country, i live in it. so do so many people i love. and that’s what I keep coming back to: the people i love, and my desire to protect them. at the very center of all the rage and hurt and anxiety and sorrow i’m feeling, is a deep, perilous love. i am holding onto that love. i hope you are, too.

surprise! i turned this into a sticker!! a sticker which i will be selling and donating 100% of the profits from to Trans Continental Pipeline, a local mutual aid group that helps trans americans relocate to colorado (a relatively safe state) from less safe states. they've had a huge increase in aid requests since the election and offer a ton of incredible services to people relocating to the state, including moving grants and providing temporary accommodations, help with finding jobs, housing, mental and other health care, and a network of peers and community.

i'm offering a preorder on the stickers at the moment, to gauge how many i should buy. i will continue to sell (and donate the profits of) extra stickers after they're ordered, so this isn't your only chance to get them, but now is a great time to support a good cause and get a sticker (in 2-3 weeks time)! the best news is, the more stickers people order, the larger a percentage of the price we can donate to TCP.

[ID: The first image shows a drawing of a white, winged unicorn with a rainbow mane standing protectively over a younger white unicorn with a blue and pink mane, which is curled up and resting on the ground. Both have their eyes closed, and they are against a backdrop of plants and flowers. The second image shows the same drawing now on a circular canvas, with the text "Protect Trans Kids" added in rainbow letters over the unicorns. End ID.]
