I love this painting.
There's such a hidden story there.
Is the painter being annoying?
Is the painting meant to be put above the snack drawer her already chunky husband keeps raiding?
Or is she judging us through the mists of time?

It was reprehensible when people mocked condom usage at the height of the AIDS pandemic.

It is just as depraved to mock those wearing masks to reduce the spread of airborne viruses today.

Whenever someone takes any kind of step to protect public health, they should be applauded, not mocked.

Happy Winter Solstice to all! May the longest night signify brighter days ahead.

Solstice always reminds me that darkness does not last forever. Warmer days are coming. In these dark times, may you find hope and comfort in the cyclical nature of the seasons.

We have instinctive wisdom inside us that CPTSD has worked hard to muffle, make us distrust, & make us doubt the existence of. An every day trauma recovery discipline is listening to our gut & heart w/ respect & patience-- which isn't easy, w/ all the noise & bullsh* t out there.

You are worth so much more than half assed effort in relationships. Don't let your trauma history convince you otherwise.

"Their" inability to step up has zero to do w/ whether you deserve high effort. "Their" effort issue is a "them" issue -- which WILL catch up to them.

"Western civilization," the font, the 11 stars - 11 states in the confederacy, for the record.

Why is this never news? Why are we letting our government agencies do this sort of thing while the news agencies report on hallucinated trade deals and act like everything is normal

Kristi Noem is a liar. ICE Nazis are out of control and are arresting CHILDREN who are American citizens.
