  Went to the Dunes today, tried the West beach! Gary looks terrible :( I am so sorry what y'all had to endure there. But the park is looking better with every time I visit. Except the flags. Can anyone explain why there are 600,000 flags? We were flabbergasted.

  I am stirring the pot today. I challenge everyone to delete 100 images off their phone today. Everyone is overdue 1) clean your trash 2) pick a folder and start deleting images 3) do so until there are 100 items in your trash 4) empty trash

  I am going insane. Every time I kill a fly - another one respawns. I've killed over 20 now and Potato caught one. I have no idea where they are coming from. Took trash out, checked perimeter of the house. I've never been so flabbergasted in my life. Edit: potato caught 2

  In good news, I have read 20 books already this year and didn't even notice doing so. Back in the game 😎

  Currently there are russians inside russia that don't believe that Ukraine is bombing them as they watch us bombing them with their own eyes. They think so little of Ukraine that they can not fathom that we have missiles that go that deep into their territory. russians will never stop waging war against Ukraine because their average katyas and vanyas feel inherently superior to Ukrainians in every way. Their next leader is already born and is being shaped in that garbage society. #ukraine

  I went from buying smoked salmon at Costco to buying frozen franks at Costco on the same salary.

  Will the war seize the moment putin dies?

  @KrissyKat I watched many thousands of these be decapitated and removed in my country - including one right outside my own window. I hate that US has them with passion. All statues of men will fall spectacularly.

  Feeling lethargic on this Tuesday #catsofmastodon

  Between communicating with my family in Ukraine about our loss, the funeral and travel arrangements, and helping my partner, who is currently in Japan, cancel cards and get cash via WU because he lost his wallet, I am in three different timezones and three distinctly different distressed states of mind. Oh and a pharmacist said my name was russian this morning, cherry on top. Haven't had a break since February.

  Potato has an incredible talent to read minds. The second I had a thought "I need to get out of bed and do some work" he ran into the bedroom and laid down on my legs. 90 seconds and he is asleep. He was nowhere to be found when I was scrolling. This has happened so often that I don't think it's a coincidence. He only comes seconds before I am about to do something else. #catsofmastodon

  When I first went to art school as a child, I was taught that rulers are illegal and if you had to glue a piece of paper over a mistake - you are a failure and the scum of the world. Now as I admire original pages of comic book artists who are 1) insanely fast 2) insanely creative and versatile 3) insanely technical 4) glue over a bad hand I realize that everything is kinda made up and I can make shit up as I go too and call myself whatever I want. I'm an artist, motherfuckers

  Listen to this video. My sister's voice singing at her own funeral as she is being walked through the streets of Kyiv one last time. #ukraine #russiaisaterrorist

  Is it true that fuckface's mug is going to be on the new US passports? I know passports are us property and you can't deface them, so this may be a big problem for me, since the question of naturalization is on the table for me

  I've suddenly become a target to russian bots on other social media in the past few days, real obvious and a bit more sophisticated ones. It's been a while. I think something is brewing if they are so active again.

  My mom said the photographers at the funeral were incredibly invasive in the family's personal space. It's upsetting that some "journalists" make other people's personal tragedy into clicks for their Instagram account.

  Ukraine is now above the US in the Index of freedom of press rating. 55th. russia, obviously, is in the bottom 10. https://rsf.org/en/index

  My cat Potato made it in the local news!!! I am so excited lmaoooo (I also made it in the news, and the article is pretty good - I appreciate that I was actually quoted on what I said about Ukrainian culture being erased - it was a pleasure to work with Dan and Stephanie.) https://mirrorindy.org/political-art-indianapolis-world-war-immigration-motherhood-islamaphobia/

  I am going to make a 50 cell table. Every time someone in my circle, be it jobs or friends, says something infuriating and prompting me to respond, or I read news that I want to vent about to my partner - I will fill in one cell, take a deep breath and walk away from the situation. I will do that 50 times before I am allowed to interact again. I am so emotionally exhausted. This will either help me let it go or will bottle up my feelings and make me explode. Tune in to see in a few weeks

  My partner is 1500 words into Ukrainian learning and he reads really well. He mastered understanding cognates, which is a big chunk of languages of indo-european origin. I now give him a list of items with specifications in Ukrainian, and he can find his way around Ann's Deli and Bakery in Chicago by just looking and understanding the writing on labels. It bums me out when people tell me their partner doesn't want to learn their first language. I know how lucky I am <3
