Shout Outs
Shoutouts to Rocky who dug the face tattoo idea
Remember to use the drawer.
Repeat: do not get a face tattoo, just a drawer full of scraps of paper with tattoo ideas written on them

“SFMOMA’s investment marks a historic milestone in the contemporary art world,” said Ginger Shulick Porcella, Executive Director at Creative Growth Art Center. “It has been far too long that art institutions have ignored or underrecognized artists with disabilities.

Keep your shoes on
Tucking in a t-shirt in doesn't make it look any more formal
If you are in my family, it makes you look like a pumpkin who thinks that a tucked in t-shirt is appropriate to wear to an event that it clearly is not

I am not at all sure that will help him
