A digital collage of my own making featuring two prominent background images: a pink-skied mountain range above a forested valley, and the basalt formations on the beach of Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland. Bordering the edges are lilacs, pansies and violets in various shades of desaturated pinks and purples. In the center there is a very desaturated (almost black and white, but not quite) vintage illustration of a little girl holding a bouquet of bunches of very small flowers. Her eyes are cropped out and she is smiling gently. Behind her are gravestones with crosses at tops, and behind that are more pansies and lilacs. To the right of the center is a silver colored Celtic cross pendant that I personally own, partly hidden by lilacs. Behind that is a trailing pastel pink ribbon. To the left of the center is a silver heart shaped locket pendant with roses embossed all over it, also one that I own. Behind it is a pastel blue ribbon bow. To the further left is an Axe of Perun uncovered from an archeological dig, desaturated to be grey and partly covered by violets and lilacs.
This collage represents personal childhood nostalgia, favorite aesthetics, and a mix of two of my ancestral cultures (Celtic and Polish).

Can’t stop thinking about the fact that RFK Jr just fired the group who were responsible for connecting the initial dots during the HIV/AIDS pandemic.

These are vital roles that save lives.

Among many others at the CDC, the Trump regime laid off the staff of the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

“The publication’s storied history includes a June 1981 report that five previously healthy gay men were treated for an unusual pneumonia — the first hint of the AIDS epidemic.”

alphinaud is not a coward because he stepped onto a garlemald warship with nothing but a vague ambassadorship to protect him just to forge peace between nations but I do think he has the energy of a boy who will not get a drink of water at night because five nights at freddys is at the fridge

men used to get unrealistic expectations from porn and women used to get them from romance books. now everyone gets them from playing immersive 100 hour videogames where an elf with a shadowy past comes to know love again through your shared adventure and offers up their glistening elf body to you

I did hear about this and I don’t know that I have TEA but I have THOUGHTS

first of all let us not skip past the symbolic significance of “Leo signed the document on Oct. 4, the feast of St. Francis of Assisi”

@clairewillett.bsky.social wanted to make sure you hear this (and hear any tea you might have regarding this): www.ncronline.org/pope-leo-bla...

Pope Leo blasts elitism, indifference toward poor in first major document

"I am convinced that the preferential choice for the poor is a source of extraordinary renewal both for the church and for society," the pope wrote in Dilexi Te.

Much as I kinda resent the phrase "no makeup makeup" that palette was soooo pretty and I miss it. I made that thing hit pan. Imagine if they brought it back and made multiple kinds for different skin tones, they'd make BANK

paige 💌 @ghoulvalentines.bsky.social · 12h

I haven't given Too Faced a single penny in a decade but if they brought back the No Makeup Makeup fave palette I'd get it in a heartbeat.

This video is everywhere because it's a hilarious visual refutation of Portland being on fire. You can't get a mass movement going without convincing the masses

so yes, this does do something actually

This literally does nothing. You are not beating fascism by dressing up in inflatable suits and dancing

Portland is leading the way. This is how you (non violently) beat Fascism. Humor and ridicule are key.
