I don't remember but I'm not surprised at that. My memory for people and events has been terrible especially in recent years.

The free school lunch directly impacted my family. Both of my sons were able to get fed at school with no income requirements. It was a relief in a time where we were struggling financially but were making too much to qualify for assistance. Thank you, fight the good fight.

The jellyfish have returned… Some of you may remember these cyanotypes from their first release. After a little time away, they’re now returning to my shop! Just to let you know, I only made six of each print, and several of them have already been sold. 🪼 shop.rowanclair.com 🪼

GOOD NEWS! A personalized mRNA vaccine, known as mRNA-4157, has shown promise in keeping melanoma, a deadly skin cancer, from returning. FIVE years later, NEARLY 70% of people in the vaccine group are CANCER-FREE. The vaccine also cut a person’s risk of the cancer metastasizing by NEARLY 60%.

A personalized vaccine for melanoma cut the risk of cancer returning after five years

If the vaccine is effective in a late-stage trial, it would be “paradigm-shifting,” one expert said.

The first thing that went through my mind when I woke up from my colonoscopy and they told me I needed surgery to remove a tumor wasn't "omg am I going to die?", no, it was "how the fuck am I going to pay for this?" The US is so backwards with healthcare it's stupid. Profits > people

I am so angry at the world right now, because this is happening and I didn't fucking ask for this. And as a result I am now at the mercy of the US healthcare system. It's sad when people have to choose treatment, eating or dying because the insurance companies prioritize profits over people.

So the last month has been a shit show of epic proportions. A routine colonoscopy resulted in being diagnosed with colorectal cancer... I have fucking cancer. It's been a flurry of appointments and a lot of crying and spiraling. I am not OK, but I will make it through this shit.

I was training to be a STEM teacher in MA and the pay is the number one reason I chose not to pursue that when I moved to Maine. You cant survive on what teachers are paid and frankly it is an insult to the dedication it takes to be a teacher between the education and classroom costs.

The Dracula cover I worked on is finally revealed. I am very stoked about this project, because doing a cover art for a classical book is a dream I didn't know I had, and also because they agreed to have the cover art minimalistic and elegant, and I AM SO HAPPY ABOUT IT.

Dark painting in classical style, depicting a woman in a white dress with her back facing the viewer, wrapped in red fabric. The face of a man peaking through the darkness, near the woman's bleeding neck.
