Every market is a gamble with my health and the health of my family. And every event that doesn’t require masks is not truly accessible. Masking is community care. Mask the fuck up. (2/2)

Covid is surging yet again in LA county and it’s still market season. As the sole person behind my shop I am begging y’all to be serious about masking. Covid is disabling. It also further harms disabled, high risk, and immunocompromised folks. (1/2)

8) Seeing familiar faces stop by my booth just to say hi or see what’s new 9) Chairs being provided lol 10) connecting with new, talented artists and makers and doing art trades

5) Folks insisting on paying cash because cash is queen 6) People having a deeper appreciation of all my shiba stickers when I explain that they’re modeled after my dog 7) People skipping discounts to pay full price for mutual aid fundraiser designs ❤️‍🔥

3) watching folks in the know introduce their friends to haw flakes with joy and nostalgia is joyous 4) Folks stopping by my booth to show me photos of my artwork in their home. 🥹😭 5) folks wearing masks, picking up masks, complimenting me on my mask. 😷 We love a mask at Moonymade.

Another weekend, another market recap while it’s fresh in my mind: 1) Bringing dog treats to dog friendly events is now a must. What a delight to meet cute pups all day! 2) I need a sign for the free candy at my booth. People kept thinking that I’m selling haw flakes. 😂

12) Meeting SO many Chicago transplants and just talking about Chicago, their moves, things we all miss, neighborhoods that still feel like home to us ❤️❤️

Moonymade @moonymade.bsky.social · 05/05/2025

10) Meeting folks who’ve been following me online for a while 11) People getting genuinely excited to sign up for my newsletter. This is a big one for me since I live in the deepest, darkest shadows of meh-ta and I love having the space to say and share all the things with y’all.

Moonymade @moonymade.bsky.social · 05/05/2025

7) Getting to connect with rad makers and artists with shared values 8) Folks getting excited about the little solidarity station at my booth and calling their friends over to snag free masks and stickers. 9) Dancing to amazing AANHPI music all weekend long while at my booth

Moonymade @moonymade.bsky.social · 05/05/2025

4) Connecting with anti-imperial, anti-colonial AANHPI folks ❤️‍🔥 That part NEVER gets old. Never. 5) Folks wanting to pay the full amount for mutual aid fundraiser stickers. 6) Folks asking for transparency about mutual aid distributions! I’m also happy to answer—grifting is disgusting.

Moonymade @moonymade.bsky.social · 05/05/2025

3) Kids really love the “book bans are dog shit” sticker with an illustration of my dog pooping. Must make a word-free version for the kiddos because everyone deserves to laugh at my clown of a dog. 4) Folks of all ages getting excited about my bookmarks because they love reading (especially kids)

Recapping this weekend’s market while it’s fresh in my mind. Some highlights in no particular order: 1) Masks offered and highly encouraged. 2) Had some cute dogs visit my booth. Should remember to bring dog treats to any dog friendly event.

Not all artists and small businesses are invested in collective liberation. So when shopping small and local, make sure you’re doing it with folks and businesses who *are* invested in building a better future for all of us and are trying to move differently.

010

Moonymade @moonymade.bsky.social · 12/03/2025

If you want to support artists who are committed to collective liberation & community, join their email lists, follow them outside of meta/Twitter, share their work on-/offline. These things make a huge difference as principled artists navigate censorship and events with lack of covid precautions.

Moonymade @moonymade.bsky.social · 12/03/2025

There’s so much I love about in person markets, but this disregard for health and safety taxing. Please, I beg, wear a mask. It’s literally the least we can all do.

010

Moonymade @moonymade.bsky.social · 12/03/2025

And to be clear, this is a risk many non-disabled makers take. Not having any Covid precautions or masks required makes market inaccessible for disabled makers and customers and nyone who is a caretaker or sharing space with high risk people.

Moonymade @moonymade.bsky.social · 12/03/2025

If these markets are going to use the word “community” in every other sentence, then they should take precautions to protect their communities. Otherwise stop abusing that word.

000

Moonymade @moonymade.bsky.social · 12/03/2025

If an artist or maker gets long covid, which isn’t like, out of the realm of possibility, they’re fucked. It’s usually just a one person show. Every market is a gamble with their health—on top of the measles resurgence and avian flu.

Moonymade @moonymade.bsky.social · 12/03/2025

It’s market season for small biz/artists. Almost every market I look at does not have masks required or any covid precautions in place. I’m always masked and I bring free n95 masks for customers. I am always masked. I’m doing what I can. But god, I wish organizers were doing something…anything.

Uday has since turned 18, but his dreams of studying at university remain. He and his family need $150 a month to pay for the newly restored electricity in their area. Uday plans to attend university online, so access to electricity is crucial. If you can help visit tinyurl.com/udayfund (art by me)

Can #TigerBalm heal all of this? *gestures broadly at self* New sticker design forthcoming. #art

Stack of glossy vinyl stickers against a blue background with a stark spotlight on the stack and shadows in the lower left and upper right corners. The sticker design is a digital illustration of a hexagonal Tiger balm jar with a gold screw top and brown bottle color. The label has solid red and yellow/gold triangular border across the top and bottom circumference. The side panels of the label are bright blue with the head of an orange and black roaring tiger head on each side. The middle is a marigold color and black text reads, “WOULD BE COOL IF MY BODY STOPPED KEEPING THE SCORE”.

Some ways I deal with overwhelm (as empire crumbles): garden, play with my dog, shake my body…and most recently, play a mobile game where the whole point is just to sort objects together lol. That little hit of dopamine I get when everything is sorted is *chef’s kiss*. How’s everyone else dealing? 🥲

Overhearing that comment made me want to throw my dog’s full poop bag at the person who said it (I didn’t). But my god, when will it be enough?

Moonymade @moonymade.bsky.social · 10/02/2025

It’s *always* the most resourced who live in constant fear of scarcity; they never have enough for themselves. Definitely don’t have enough to share with others. Whereas it’s always the least resourced and multiply marginalized people who participate in mutual aid.

Overheard while walking my dog in an upper middle class neighborhood (where I only go to take poop bags lol): “I went to the grocery store to buy eggs. I bought 4 dozen. I don’t really need them, but it feels like we have to stock up like we did with toilet paper.” 🧵

(3/3) - people telling me they don’t need a bag because they want to wear their bandanas immediately - people passing on discounts and paying cash because they want to support 😭 Markets drain my social and physical batteries, but these moments of connection are EVERYTHING to me. Esp now. 🐍🫰🏼

Moonymade @moonymade.bsky.social · 05/02/2025

(2/3) - folks excited to snag free KN95 masks at my booth - people getting excited to go home and print more of their own solidarity stickers at home to decorate/share with their community - the squeals of inner child delight over free haw flakes (I mean, same)

Moonymade @moonymade.bsky.social · 05/02/2025

A few of my favorite moments from my first 2025 market: - Meeting folks who knew about Moonymade because of my Free Palestine fundraiser blanket - A little girl resonating with my “have you eaten yet” comrade lucky cat sticker because “my mom ALWAYS asks me this!” (1/3)

Happy LNY from 18MR!🧧🐍 Let this year of the wood snake be one where we shed old skins that no longer serve us and adapt to whatever comes our way. Just like how snakes have scales to protect themselves, may we also rely on our community, our allies, and our ancestors, to keep each other safe💚

Illustration against a pink background of three snakes each holding a red envelope with large text: Rise up & strike! Smaller subtext on the top left and bottom right reads: educate, organize, mobilize
