The scraps left over from helping make some album art, and now I just want to sit on the floor and make collages

Just connecting dots here 1. trump administration deports everyone in USA who works low wage jobs like growing food 2. Rfk jr was just confirmed. He has talked repeatedly about his “wellness farms” (forced labour camps) for addicts and also anyone taking adhd meds, antidepressants, making them…
