"Overconsumption"
I feel as if consuming too much media can lead to a general unhappiness in some people. I wanted to paint something that describes this, thus the "laugh reacts," and "angry reacts" mixed with the medication, going straight to the brain.

“bsky is boring!”
1) good
2) social media should not be a cornerstone of your everyday entertainment
3) I find new artists to follow every day and look at pretty art endlessly on here when I feel like it
4) get a tactile hobby where you create something with your hands
5) read book
6) walk outside

It really cannot be emphasized enough that the Holocaust was modeled after the American campaign to displace and exterminate Indigenous people. This country drew up that blueprint.
Fascism isn’t new to the US. It’s always been here. It’s built into this country‘s DNA. Bigotry is our primary export. We just quantified and qualified it under the false title of ”freedom” because that’s what the masses here want & what (yht) ppl with guns & bibles as their personality like to hear
No kidding. I remember when our local government wanted record stores to track names of everyone buying metal records. (Maybe rap too and I’ve just forgotten?)
(Why do I remember this? A good friend of mine owned a record store, and as a new librarian I had some strong opinions, and ideas.)

In the spirit of making my needs known, I’m heading for over draft again. All of my funds will go to paying rent, leaving me with nothing to pay bills or buy groceries in January, which is my birth month (yay).
