Hi, I'm Mara! A queer artist with AuDHD and a constant headache (among other things) and with that a lot of exhaustion.

I do a lot of different art.
Currently I'm mainly focusing on rubber stamps. But I also do lino printing and love painting picture frames for art. And I love a good side project.
A DIN A4 piece of paper with a lot of different stamped illustrations. A seahorse, a goose, a church with the text "Post aus Mainz", a pigeon holding a letter with the text "für dich", a mouse with a letter, a fast snail holding a letter, a whale, a pillow with the text "Kissenstempel", a fish, several butterflies, tomatoes, stars and flowers, apples and an apple tree. Some seal stamps (as in wax seals but stamps), one of them a heart, one a fish, one leaves and a flower and one my artist sign. a photo of a framed lino print. The print is red and shows a package of passata. The frame is dark and square. Is has small tomatoes all over it. The mat or passepartout is white with prints of red tomatoes with green tomatoe greens. A blue lino print on white paper showing a negative printed fish and the text eat the rich in caps. The fish is vertical and has different textures. It has a white head with a big round eye and a small mouth. The fins all have fine lines on them, the backfin ones are very parallel, the other ones a bit more organic looking. It has scales on its body except for the belly. The belly is striped in the direction of the fish. The print is titled "Eat the fish", it's also numbers "#1" and signed by me. The print lays on background with an illustrated flower pattern.

I just became aware of this incredibly relatable drawing by John Singer Sargent.
A pencil drawing of a woman reclining in bed, but her hands look kind of fucked up, and her face has been scribbled out, apparently in frustration by the artist

I regret every joke I’ve made about how our elected officials were so old they didn’t know how to use a computer. I would give anything for another administration that doesn’t know how to use a computer

Could you please not (re-)post videos of (police) violence without a CN? (This is not to a single person, no one needs to apologize to me, my whole feed is full of this.)

Germany, today.

People in the replies are like "how could they?!"

Well, this is what police is for and always has been. They're acting as intended. This is why we say ACAB.

Growing up in a time when “selling out” was the most shameful thing you could do and then being forced to live through the 2020s feels like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

Wearing an n95 in public is the single most intersectional act of solidarity you can take.

Every group of people under attack by the fascists in charge is at higher risk of illness wrecking their body, finances, family, & future.

Don’t let fascists turn you into a weapon. Give/get mutual aid:
