I would love to tell you about the times vaccines prevented me from getting sick, but every time it happens, I don’t notice. I just keep feeling well.

Also, DO NOT CALL THE POLICE for a mental health crisis…

Image has a list of warm lines that will not call the police. Many cops are not trained to deal w/MH crises & will more than likely escalate a situation ending in the person’s death instead of actually helping them

Yup, knitting and spinning (the yarn is hand spun) are my stress relief. I anticipate four very productive years in that area 🫤

More public art today: this is the Chicago Cultural Center, formerly the Chicago Public Library. Near Millennium Park, it is truly spectacular.

Time to get the fuckuterus out again. Let’s be clear: vaccines work. Fluoride works. Gender affirming care is health care. Reproductive health care saves lives.
