A little cat sits in the left corner of the screen with their face scrunched up. A jagged word bubble coming out of their mouth reads, “A SINGLE BODY ISN’T MEANT TO PROCESS SO MUCH MISERY AND FEAR”

This should be major news: literally dozens of book bans in Canada today, because of a ministerial order by Alberta's provincial government. The titles are being withheld by the school districts... I think Canadians have a right to know what books are being banned in our public schools.

PEN Canada @pencanada.bsky.social · 21d

Today, Alberta's two biggest school divisions say dozens of books have been taken off shelves as the province's ban took effect this week.

34 titles were removed by the Edmonton Public School Division, and 44 were removed by the Calgary Board of Education:

Dozens of library books are removed from Alberta schools as new laws take effect

New policy requires schools to remove books containing explicit images or illustrations of sexual content

First art of 2026! It's the egg family on a stroll :] #sonic #stobotnik #stobholidaybingo

Traditionally done picture of Agent Stone, Sage the ai, Metal Sonic and Eggman on a stroll in a winter setting. Stone is pulling a small plastic sled which Sage and Metal are sitting in, their hands up in the air with joy. Eggman is waking behind the sled, hands in pockets and face tugged into his scarf, seemingly not that thrilled to be out.

#xfiles
continuing the tradition of starting the year with butchfemme msr

a sepia tone illustration featuring Mulder and Scully from the x files. in this art Mulder is a transfem butch. on the top of the canvas there's a panel with a close-up on Mulder and Scully's faces. Scully is painting Mulder's lips bright red. below this panel, the same scene is displayed, only the characters' full bodies are visible. Scully is wearing a skirt suit, she's standing on her tiptoes with one foot in the air. Mulder is wearing a checkered shirt with the sleeves rolled up to the elbows, jeans and combat boots, as well as a carabiner with keys and alien keychain dangling from it. on either side of the illustration, there are hyacinth flowers, representing change and rebirth

Mulder leans down to kiss Scully. in the close-up panel, Scully smiles slightly, both her and Mulder's lips are bright red. in the corners of the illustration, there are violets, symbolizing lesbian love
