I've been crying all day because the national park news. I've been so angry since that man got here with everything he has done but this hit me deeply. One of the best days of my life was spending two hours in a state park looking listening to the birds and drawing

There will be a world where Palestine is free, trump and elon and every evil politician will be gone, and we will have red wolves in Texas again. There will be a time where all of us thrive and we have green an nature around us where the air is clean We will fight for all things beautiful

I fucking hate elon musk I will go back in time to **** his nazi grandpa so his line never actualizes I wish I wish I wish Karma was as real as I hope it to be but even then the suffering I desire to be put upon him would not be achievable in a single life time

weird thing is that I've been unmotivated to make art or create anything for a long time. But then recently because my hair was thinning drastically I was told to take vitamin b12, D3 and Iron supplements, and I feel a weird improvement in my creativity and my attention. I feel like myself again

Pete Hegseth isn’t DEI. Daniel Penny isn’t DEI. That’s not what DEI is. They’re just grossly unqualified for their jobs and add no value that any replacement legacy job applicant wouldn’t bring. So stop saying “it’s DEI” like it’s a clever commentary on the situation. It’s not.

"let them finish the job" --- June 2024 "most of them are dead, by the way" --- 2 weeks ago "the U.S. will take over" --- Today ................................. i am sick. never give up fighting.

Everyone needs to understand - every hospital withholding healthcare from trans children will do the same to trans adults as soon as the orders come down.
