And then there are all those "special places in hell" for various groups of people.

....

Wait a minute

....

Is hell an airport?
Why do people think the road to hell is paved at all? Are you planning to drive there?
More specifically, the road to hell is paved with the intention to make good things last.

For #Crustmas, an artwork of mine made for a Darwin-themed art exhibit at Fernbank Museum in Atlanta GA in 2011. Titled 'Descent with Modification,' it shows the evolutionary relatedness of modern burrowing crustaceans using a branching burrow system as a cladogram. 🧪🎨🦀🦞🦐 #sciart

Broke: Buttfumble
Woke: Double Doink
Bespoke: Double Turnover
The Philadelphia Eagles' offensive struggles this season reached a comical new low against the Los Angeles Chargers on MNF, when Jalen Hurts threw an interception and lost a fumble on the same play.

I have some of these. They're adorable, and would make excellent gifts!

Squirrels are definitely chatterboxes.

Bonus #ArtAdventCalendar post! Been doing what I call doodles a lot recently. I find them meditative and soothing in these troubled times. They don't always come out looking like anything in particular but that can be part of the fun.

What’s the best romantic Christmas movie? New or old.

I have a big quilt that needs about three hours of hand-stitching. I have time.

Wanna buy some scientific art? Artistic science? Pretty paintings of things you usually can't see with your nekkid eyeballs?

Trump and his crowd played on the emotions of many women when they promised free universal IVF. Of course it was a lie. Of course they betrayed them. www.ms.now/news/mike-jo...
