I follow artists, journalists, scientists, and really any cool folk.
Because I’m hopeful and curious I do sometimes follow people who aren’t as left.
I’m an inconsistent poster.
I’m just an unknown artist who reflects on history, family, and the absurdity of horrors we all live in.

Okay, friends and internet neighbors, I have a surgery date of 12/31. That’s right, I’m going into 2026 with no belly button.
I want to clear another $750 of this GFM so I can rest in January. Can you help me do that?
