Been super absent from Tumblr this year 😔 Thought I might share what I've been working on during lulls at work.

My job has become more demanding as I take on a number of graphic design responsibilities, while still juggling with customer service (the worst part of my job). Not to mention, I'd never used Illustrator until this year, so I still have plenty to learn - though I think I'm doing decent!

On top of that I'm making an effort to read more books, which lead to me creating a Bookstagram.

Hoping to get back into creating moodboards 🫶🏻 though we all know 2025 has been terrible thus far.

I saw something in the news today that truly took my breath away. If you have been paying attention to U.S. politics over the past few days, you’ve most likely seen this woman:

This is Bishop Mariann Budde, and on Monday (Trump’s inauguration) she led an interfaith prayer for Trump and the incoming administration. During the service she asked him to have mercy for LGBTQ+ Americans and undocumented immigrants. This was badly received by the Trump administration (as expected).

After seeing headlines about this woman, I read something that I wanted to share. In 1998 a man named Matthew Shepard was murdered for being gay. I’m not going to get into the details of his death on this post, but please be warned it is extremely triggering if you do choose to read more on your own. Matthew Shepard’s death caused a lot of change in the U.S. regarding how LGBTQ hate crimes are handled, and laws that were passed to protect LGBTQ+ people.

Now you’re probably wondering what Matthew Shepard has to do with an Episcopal bishop. For years after Matthew Shepard’s murder, his family had held onto his remains, too scared to lay him to rest in fear of his final resting place being vandalized. In 2018, Budde had his remains interred at the National Cathedral, which is also the place where the interfaith prayer for Trump and his administration took place. The impact of this really had an effect on me. Budde could have led a non confrontational prayer service, and chosen not to mention the harm that will come to the people Trump and his administration are going after. Instead she chose to call out hate and fear in front of some of the most powerful people on the planet, and at a place that has such a large historic meaning to the LGBTQ community.

In the next few years there will be many challenges in protecting free speech, standing up against hate, and protecting those in our communities. But I would like to believe that for every Donald Trump and Elon Musk, there are people like Marianne Budde. There are those of us who can’t speak up for themselves, so it’s important for those of us who can to amplify our voices, even if it’s not the ‘popular’ thing to do.

“And he said you should apologize. Will you apologize?

I am not going to apologize for asking for mercy for others.” - Mariann Budde’s response in a Time interview

Didn't wanna add this to the last post bcs it's a bit off topic but HEY WHAT THE FUCK??

Wow! What a great idea, it's not like there's ever been a severe weather event that ended up killing a bunch of people who only speak Spanish because they did not have access to appropriate warning systems they could understand due to systemic racism treating them as disposable-OH WAIT NO THAT DID HAPPEN.

Actual horseshit. Spanish is the second most spoken language in the USA, this is just another sign that systemic racism continues to devalue the lives of anyone who isn't white and it will get people killed. I'm not kidding, I don't fuck around with severe weather warning systems, and if you take even the shallowest look at the history of meteorology in this country you will immediately see how many people have died due to not being properly informed about tornados and other natural disasters. Anything that makes it harder for the average person to know if a goddamn tornado is heading right for them or not is a miscarriage of social justice and should be corrected immediately.

Idk what can be done to restore the channel, but in the mean time please look out for your friends, family, and neighbors, especially if you live somewhere prone to natural disasters and extra especially if they don't speak English. If The Weather Channel won't step up to ensure that the flow of information is easily accessible to everyone who needs it we're gonna have to do it ourselves.
