We talking about shopping small? I am small. I also donate a portion of my art product sales to conservation efforts, so my best to reduce waste and produce locally, and make good art that people seem to like 💜💜💜
I never do sales, but I'm doing a big Christmas sale this year! Shop #kikorangi local, support an artist, and give unique gifts that always hit with their recipient!

Get in and snag bundle deals, marked down tees, and restocked items that were previously sold out: pepperraccoon.com/collections/...

If you don't know this story, I really recommend looking it up.

In the Yorkshire Post article I'm reading about it (3rd Feb 1988) a Tory MP says 'it was the most extraordinary scene. It beat anything that ever happened in the Commons!'

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.

Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."

Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.
