Mini Pins for 2026's Pin club! Note: If you are part of my Club, please take a look at the most recent few posts, as tiers are changing around temporarily to Mini Pins only. That way my Club and Crowdfunding projects have time to catch up.

Did a bit of a break from most social media the past couple months to spend more time with my family & work on centering myself. Here's a laser cut I did for an old friend for Xmas last year. I'll still be semi-aloof, & plan to pause my Pin Club in January until my pin manufacturer catches up.

very rare that an update from Gaza is good to hear — but WCK’s tenacious commitment to its kitchens there is that rarity I just donated again to support their work and hope you can & will too

WCK resumed cooking in Gaza after our first aid delivery in 12 weeks. With new ingredients on hand, we’re preparing warm, carb-rich meals like pasta and hearty potato stews. The WCK team cooked nearly 10,000 meals on day one of resumed operations. #ChefsForGaza (1/2)

Everyone should read this, especially for the bits in the article that give us some insight into what these detention prisons used by ICE are like. And no one, no one, should be traveling to the US if they can avoid it. No one. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
