‪"The short escapades of the summer and autumn of 2014 meant I took the energy I used to keep my house in order and put it elsewhere. But I couldn’t take that energy indefinitely, and even if I could have ignored our house chores forever, or hired help, I was still done for by the autumn of 2014 and in need of ample rest in order to return to my baseline."

I've been following @jennylam on my personal acct for a while, and always appreciate what she brings to both The Art World and the Fediverse.

Today I'm really, deeply honored to share that work from @illmarks , my Visualizing Long Covid project, will be in Volume 2 of Laminator!

Beyond the honor of being amongst so many amazing international artists, I know every moment of representation for ppl w/ post-acute infection syndromes like #longcovid & #mecfs are solace to our communities. ♿ 😷 🦻 🦯

@futzle Mother Woila is a mountain in a remote & extremely wild part of Deua National Park in NSW. The navigation to get there is very challenging, through precipitous hill-spur country. I twice attempted the infamous Woila Circuit and failed both times, but fully intended to keep going back until I'd succeeded. Alas, #mecfs had other ideas, but I try to hold onto that wild version of myself.

Anyway, I desperately needed to replace my teenage username of StickyVelvet (I know ....), and WildWoila was a whole lot more palatable.

Which begs the question: what terrible internet handles do people have hidden in the closet?
