The GFM is up now. With my mom in police custody & on ICE hold despite being in the US for nearly 3 decades, this puts me & my family in a very tough spot If you can, I ask y'all to send some love & support our way to help us fight for our mom's freedom from this unjust system. gofund.me/5506965b6

An image statement featuring my fursona, Choco, with a concerned expression (sticker made by @freddy1565.bsky.social), with a header reading "help us bring back our mom & stay afloat"

The description below reads, "yesterday, my mom was stopped by police, taken to jail, and has an ICE hold placed on her. Me and my family are hoping & praying for her release. She is the breadwinner of our family & we depend on her.

We need financial support to stay on top of bills & to help pay for any legal fees as we fight to bring our mom back home to us.

Here's the link to our GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/5506965b6"

Just got my first short story rejection in a long time. Hopefully I'm stronger now, but feeling a definite "Oh yeah, that's what it used to feel like."! #writerslife #shortstory #rejection

The core of the artist's work cannot be on social media, or even in a gallery. It is the space between the hand and the page, the joy of seeing our work mature and come alive. It's a parenthood, where we love our offspring regardless of public approval. #art #artistslife

Apparently people are sharing this far and wide on social media, which I think is horrible. This could cripple ICE operations. PLEASE do not share this.

There are currently millions of Dolly Parton memorials, happening in many places. One started up at the library, unplanned, which I was able to join. Just a group sitting around, talking about what she had done. Like one big tribute, spread across the Earth! #dollyparton

So, my Facebook views just plummeted for some reason. Maybe because I posted my work less last week than I used to. It makes me somewhat less than happy!
