I wrote a sad story and laid it out as a zine this year! It's got a few of my cards that didn't have a piece to be in, and also a few that found the time to be made.

BREAKING: UC agrees to recognize SRU-UAW in its entirety! This historic victory was brought about by the tireless efforts of thousands of SRs who organized to win a union & a direct response to our massive Strike Authorization Vote. Now let’s win a strong contract for all SRs!
ALT A graphic showing Student Researchers holding signs and speaking into megaphones, microphones, and bullhorns. The images are assembled from various SRU actions. Text is imposed on the signs so that they read, “SRU-UAW is officially recognized by UC! We won our union!” The left half of the background is yellow and it changes via a gradient into blue.

change.org/p/president-narim…@ndyjwaldron, @_kylebg, and I led an effort 4 years ago to get our school to rename a building they were going to name after Greg Gianforte (homophobe and transphobe). @1800NASI is leading a new effort to rename the building. Please sign the petition!
re-visiting and thinking about my project, naviguer. get at my thoughts on patreon.
here's my cyborg boy, surveil.
ALT Ink drawing of a character facing three-quarters to their left, gazing towards the viewer. This character is framed within a vertical box, with their arm placed over and out of the bottom of the frame. Their hair ends at the nape of the neck, bangs falling just over their eyes. They wear a headphone on their right ear that is fashioned like a bird's wing. Their right eye is devoid of an iris and pupil. Their left eye, normal. They wear a fitted sleeveless shirt with a fur collar, and braces on their arms that start at the middle of the bicep and come down to their wrists. In front of the character are pastings of flowers. On the top right of the frame, a few pressed little blue flowers. On the left of the frame, one pressed cherry blossom flower.
ALT Image of text that reads: April 7, 2021. afternoon porched. ... from here, I'll work backwards. the fallacy of time, when spent on what we don't will, staggers memory. days bleed into each other, more so now that the sun stays around into the evening hours. let your skin soak it through work clothes, belt buckled, keep relaxed. as cool as you can be right out of the office. don't you know your stresses? takes a long time to yourself to clean up a mess that you've grown used to, so used to carrying a necessary weight. unnecessary weight.
