You're not "late to the party" when you enjoy an old book for the first time. Books don't have an RSVP deadline. The party started long ago, and guests show up when they're meant to.

"If a woman doesn't look woman enough to a Republican, they want to be able to inspect your genitals to use a bathroom? It's disgusting.
Everyone should reject it completely... they're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kind, and everyone should reject it. It's gross." - AOC

Additionally, art is expression.
Art is communication.
Art is how we understand **each other**
We simply cannot help but create. It’s in our blood.
From the first hominids painting bison on cave walls, to a child drawing houses and smiley-face suns on an iPad today, this has been true.

I'm going to keep banging this drum until I fucking die.
People like to frame art as a nice thing to have, or a thing that makes a space pretty, but that ignores the fact that humans gain an understanding of the world around themselves through art.
Without art, life is pretty much useless.

You're not a "content creator"
You are an artist and craftsperson who creates things that someone can enjoy, benefit from, and have a better and fuller life through the process of enjoying your work

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. Each year, the trans community loses too many lives, especially trans women of color, to hate and violence.
More than ever, we must stand by our trans family and support them, hold space for them, and insist the scapegoating and targeting stop.
Now.

We're now 2 weeks away from #Thanksgiving and I don't want to see any mention of 'guilt,' 'falling off the wagon,' 'cheat days,' any verbiage that implies you are 'bad' or that you 'get to have' food or that you have to 'earn' your food or 'atone' through exercise. Food is awesome, full stop.
