This piece is a collage self portrait made of crochet fiber arts, acrylic paint, cards and cds.

They're all items that I feel define me and the things I love in this life. I've recently fallen in love with crocheting. When I created this in 2024, it had only been around six months whe I began. Now, it has truly changed my life and my way of art making. This to the point that i began questioning my major decision and possibly considering textiles at RISD.

The CDs come from an old friend. Im not sure if I could consider us friends anymore. But they make up my hair and my shield. Music at the time also was my way of bonding with my friends. We had vinyl nights and would listen to our favourite albums over and over again. D4vd was one of our favourites, now not so much...

Paint is my one true love since childhood and the cards are tarot that I enjoy exploring. Anyway, if you read this entire thing you are really dedicated. Thanks for listening.

June Worst Month in Midterm Years

June has favored NASDAQ over the last 55 years ranking sixth best with a 1.1% average gain, up 32 of 55 years (since 1971). This contributes to NASDAQ’s “Best Eight Months” which ends in June. However, June ranks near the bottom on the Dow Jones Industrials just above September since 1950 with an average loss of 0.1%. S&P 500 performs similarly poorly, ranking ninth, but with a 0.2% average gain. Small caps have tended to fare better in June. Russell 2000 has averaged 0.9% in the month since 1979, advancing 63.8% of the time.

However, in midterm years since 1950, June ranks no better than eleventh. June is the worst DJIA, S&P 500, NASDAQ, and Russell 1000 month in midterm years. Average losses range from 1.8% by Russell 1000 to 2.1% from S&P 500 and Russell 2000. All five indexes have declined more times than they have risen in midterm year Junes.

Trump: "You gotta win the midterms. Because if we don't win the midterms, they'll find a reason to impeach me. I'll get impeached."

"FIND A REASON," I wonder how hard that will be?
