DON’T HESITATE ❤️‍🔥💜❤️‍🔥

I really detest the narrative of “going for low-hanging fruit”, of begging for progress in scraps and crumbs. I know we can get places by playing nice and taking part in the bureaucratic tea party. But every new time I have to smile politely and acquiesce and placate, I feel a burning urge to set the whole masquerade ball on fire.

I don’t want to assimilate. I want to rend the boundaries that dictate there is a standard to assimilate to.

Yeehawgust Day 3 - Wanted Poster

So far behind on posting my yeehawgust works but I've been steadily chipping away, today we have wanted poster and this is inspired by the mod for fallout: new vegas called Dust. All you need to know if you don't know of it is the courier is wanted for crimes against the NCR in the mod, and this was my take on that
