the david zwirner gallery and the felix gonzalez torres foundation in the smithsonian removed the descriptive plaque for portrait of ross in la by felix gonzalez-torres. the old plaque explained portrait for ross' origins as the artist's partner's aids related death, and replaced it with a plaque with absolutely no information about the piece itself, who ross was, or who gonzalez-torres was either. portrait of ross was also reeranged to lay on the floor long ways instead of in a pile as it typically is situated, and the plaque outside the exhibition FOR GONZALEZ-TORRES omits his sexuality, as well as his aids related death. i'm in utter disbelief

Ground floor = the same level as the road/ground outside, i.e. you could walk outside without going down a (full) flight of stairs. If you live in a split level or slightly elevated home, e.g. you go up or down just a few steps to get in or out, consider that ground level for the purposes of this poll.
If you live in a multi-story home where one of the floors that you live on is ground level and others are higher, select the most relevant "ground floor" option.

That has to be the most humiliating way to describe one of Earth's most terrifyingly effective predators.

the 'might' has elevated to a 'definitely' and i'm having a time about it. i have 2-3 hours before someone can help me get there so maybe i can pull myself together by then. deeply upset either way.
health venting i'm just so frustrated i want to just cry but i'm too tightly wound to tldr i think i might have to go to the ER
my health has been struggling through various things since this year started, though thankfully manageable. frustrating that it's so constant, but glad there's direct lines of mending myself. but i woke up today with a new and entirely unfamiliar symptom out of the blue and i might have to go to the ER because it's prominent and could mean serious things and i'm struggling so fucking bad with pushing myself to go to the hospital because i feel so fucking close to a breakdown after how this month has gone and the idea of going out into public, which i can already very barely manage, and having a public nervous breakdown is just making me even more anxious on top of the severe health anxiety. today is not going great and i would just so deeply like to have at least. a fucking month of a break. i want to have a month where i don't have to panic about my health.
