Truly! It’s something I’ve always struggled with, I’m glad I forced myself out of my comfort zone with this. Thanks for the kind words!

Thank you so much!

And it was wonderful. Really hard initially, but in the end I found myself having more fun painting than I have in a while. I played and experimented and just fucked around without worrying about the end result, and I really really love the end result. We'll see if I can keep that mindset!

This painting was a bit of an experiment! I tend to get pretty obsessive over "perfection" and I hyper-prepare for every painting. I've realized recently how detrimental that is to my creativity and motivation. So! I sat down to force myself to paint with no plan and no restarting allowed.

If you've never integrated the Quick Access bar into your workspace in CSP, you're missing out! You can fully customize what appears there. There's a lot of options you have to navigate dropdown menus for that I use a lot, so I have them docked in my Quick Access bar!

“There’s no point to calling because my senators already agree with me”

“There’s no point to calling because my senators won’t listen”

These are both false information and you should correct and/or block anyone circulating them. Your calls are tallied and create support and/or real pressure.

If you aren't in MN, check this help to aid us! If you are and can't protest on the streets, make sure to call your reps. One of the senators I called has a full voicemail box, so clearly we're overwhelming them. Keep that up and make your voice heard!

love how it looks so far! that border is gonna be pretty

Two pocket notebooks laying atop a box full of identical notebooks. The notebook covets are a kraft paper with added designs. One features purple line art of rabbits frolicking through flowers and plants. The other is a variety of red lined foxes in various poses.

cute pocket notebooks incoming!

Oh for heavens sake, I just looked and they scraped my website too :/

Oh boy I was at the overwhelmed state for a while and it was so detrimental! I think lately though I’ve done much better to stick to the first two and stop before I spiral. Nice to hear it’s not a unique problem haha

CUTE!!

They also usually just purchase one cheap item (like a single card). The whole scheme is to submit a chargeback once I ship the item and get more money via fees.

Shopify flags them with a list of why they flagged them, it’s generally stuff like nonsense emails (fjskshhdjejd24728@gmail), addresses being in completely different countries than expected, stuff like that. Emails are what tips me off the most honestly, since a VPN could explain other signs.
