It’s days like today that I’m SO thankful to be clean & sober. For the past 9 years, I’ve chosen sobriety every day and I look forward to many more years of making that same choice. 💗

I made my very first zine! It’s about the medication I take for my bipolar disorder 💗 I totally messed up the folding, but maybe that adds more character? 😅😭 the good news is that the next one will *surely* be an improvement 😆 #disabledsky #artsky #zines

seen this going around lately so i wanted to post it here

a black and white typography edit that reads "the homosexual and the transsexual must always seek to liberate the other for they fight the same fight!" to the right of the text is a dandelion with the roots exposed. the entire image is edited to look photocopied.

Just saw a post about someone buying a foreign edition of a popular romance book on TEMU?? This is like one of the #1 ways to ensure an author DOESN’T get paid for their work. 🤦🏻‍♀️ #booksky

The only helpful AI feature would be an alert that pops up when someone searches “am I gay quiz” that says, “HEADS UP: straight people do not ever need to google this”. Would have saved me a loooooot of time as a teen 😑
