Gonna take the time to be proud of myself right now. I aced my medical assessment test tonight in my EMS class.

Call your Senator and simply ask why they voted to send 8 million dollars of tax payer money to Elon per day.

hey you! person reading this! have you considered putting away your phone and having an enjoyable day instead of a bad one? just a thought. either way is cool, I don't even know you.

"AND IT LOOKS LIKE THEY TOOK (maddie)" Yeah, that's not the actual dialogue. What are they hiding 👀

No. One. Voted. For. Elon. Musk.

I’m gonna put this out there, but everyone has the power to make a big difference. Strength comes in numbers. Your individual actions will make a dent if everyone else follows suit. Be informed and find ways to fight back. It’s not sticking out to be a hero. It’s saving our country together.

Do not, I repeat, DO NOT CRASH OUT. Folks are relying on you to be overstimulated, overwhelmed, & overcome so you won't resist. Take breaks, Take a breath, Be intentional with how you spend your time. Be effective with how you spend your energy. Support each other Rest, live, & fight another day.

Not everyone is going to have the capacity to be on the “front lines” over these next few years, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still make a difference. Self-love is resistance Self-care is resistance Joy is resistance Art is resistance Learning is resistance Growing & thriving is resistance

Kindness does, actually, cost something. Like time, effort, and consciousness. But it's worth it, even so. In a world where arseholes seem to be winning, be kind: it's radical action.

The stuff happening right now, is overwhelming. It’s meant to be. It’s how terrorists operate. They want you to live in fear. They want you to panic. They want you to feel despair. They want you to stop fighting. They want you to give up. Don’t give up. You are not alone!

First they came for the immigrants, and I spoke out, because I’ve read the damn poem before and I know how it ends.

The point is for you to be scared. The point is for you to be too exhausted and inundated to take true action. The point is for you to feel defeated. The point is for you to feel isolated. Don’t believe the point. Take a deep breath. Focus on community, on tangible actions.

I know this sounds weak, I know it. But kindness is one of the few things we carry that can make a difference for each other. We can’t undo all this hate, but we can still make life a little easier for others.

Be kind, intentionally. If that is all you can do right now while we survive this, that is enough. It isn't doing nothing or being complacent, it's taking a stand and saying "I will not let you ruin my good nature. I will care for others when you refuse to. You will not break the love out of me."

Period 💅🏼 #bannedbooks #booksky 💙📚

My ADHD hack to reading more when I have a wandering brain (which is all the time): listen to the audiobook while you read the physical book. Yes, you’re likely to get distracted, but you’re still listening to the book that is in your hands, so you’re still keeping up with the story #booksky #adhd

One of my favorite ballpoint pen drawings. Took me like 4 days to make and I'm so proud of it. (The beard and hair were my favorite parts #oliverstark #ballpointpenart #911abc #artistsofbluesky #artsky

ADHD is standing in the kitchen, wondering why.

This is one of my most favorite pieces I've ever done. Jensen Ackles on black paper with white charcoal #artistsofbluesky #charcoal #jensenackles #artsky

I really want to get back into needle felting and finally make realistic dolls of the 911 characters.

I really wish I wasn’t constantly having to live through major historical events that make the world worse.

This is a piece I did a few years ago of @tylergaca.bsky.social based on a hilarious tiktok he made about stealing a suit of armor. This took me over 50 hours to finish #artsky #digitalrealism #procreate #artistsofbluesky

I want to start sharing my art here, especially some of my WIPs, so here’s a digital realism piece of Eddie Diaz from 911. I am attempting to make the right side of the photo reference look as identical to the left side as I can. #eddiediaz #ryanguzman #911abc #digitalrealism #artsky
