side note, plastic shot glasses are a very good way to temporarily separate spiderlings

very interesting if not scary, the divide in communication between physical and mental care reflects that of divorcees passing off their child as the others problem, causing the child (patient) to become stuck in a loop until cps (iatrogenic disease) decides for them

as a uc arts student, i agree with not moving forward with this. porn and art are approached differently by the viewer, and while OnlyFans is not just for porn, the armature porn and cam-industry has made it what it is today -- you wouldn't display a romantic era nude on pornhub

sad but glad to see people who dedicate themselves to this institution and these works being prioritised over the collection, it's a time to practice empathy, grieve for loss, but ultimately make sure your neighbour makes it through tomorrow with you

not expected of national but appreciated, making medicinal cannabis more accessible and creating more everyday exposure in 'safe' recognised settings (ie pharmacies) rather than the unknown free-for-all that was imagined by skeptics as the result of the last referendum could 1/2

Get vaccinated for your community.

Get vaccinated to put kids back in school.

Get vaccinated for first responders.

Get vaccinated to see your grandparents.

definitely something to think about- consumerism, digital media and reproduction, authenticity, who has agency- artist or dealer or platform creator and where is that line drawn

On this #InternationalWomensDay, I want to honor the women who for over a year have gone to work, often risking their health, to nourish and protect us—the doctors, nurses, teachers, grocery store workers, first responders, members of the military, scientists, and many more.
