It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

I NEED my parents to start using punctuation in their texts, and use it appropriately.

I cannot possibly interpret their many ailments when they're stringing 6 sentences together and talking about 4 different people

Incredible gif from the nyc dept of health.

"Sure, you can look for health guidance on the CDC website. You can also buy sushi at the gas station. We don't recommend either."
Brutal but effective public health messaging from New York Public Health.

The CDC is compromised. They’re no longer a reliable source of information.

They push anti-vaxx & anti-science grift.

Get your vaccines. Wear a respirator. Clean the air

Get public health advice from experts, not RFK Jr

Ah, I see it's that time of year when our neighbor hires the leaf blowing guys to get up on the roof. They're up there blowing AIR. There are no leaves up there. What whimsy!

What terrible foul noised beast of whimsy!

Jeebus. Gambling addiction reported in kids UNDER 12 YO. I live in the afflicted area and so does my family. I don't think any of us are partial to gambling, but my 9 year old nephew who is majorly into watching sports? This wasn't even on my radar as something the family should prepare him for.

Danger Rug, Danger Rug, Nuthin's Stranger'n Danger Rug! 🦈🦈🦈
The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

Doodles for Hong Kong 🇭🇰

In response to the tragic Tai Po fire, I'm doing charity commissions. Anyone who puts over £25/250HKD into "Feeding Hong Kong" or Hong Kong SPCA can request a coloured doodle of any prehistoric animal 🙏

"The Blackfeet Nation in northwest Montana declared a state of emergency, and slaughtered 18 buffalo from its herd. Tribes across the West also killed more bison than they otherwise would have."
SNAP was restored, but many indigenous Americans still struggle with food insecurity
During the government shutdown, disruptions in food aid rippled across reservations. Both residents and tribal officials had to make tough choices, and are still feeling the financial impacts.

Reminder to check in with your media-obsessed parents periodically. There's a non-zero chance they remembered some show or movie they used to love and feel they must have their own copy. And they will make terrible and questionable choices to acquire it.

In the US, Catholic sisters return Wisconsin land to Ojibwe tribe in a historic first. The Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration have transferred a lakefront property to the Lac du Flambeau Band of Lake Superior Chippewa for the same $30,000 they paid in 1966.

For the first time, Catholic sisters return land to a Tribal nation
"This return represents more than the restoration of land — it is the restoration of balance, dignity, and our sacred connection to the places our ancestors once walked."

Canada plans to increase deportations by 25 percent over the next two years. 25 PERCENT!!!

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

I'd especially love to hear from BIPOC artists, but this is an open call! Self promo welcome, please comment with examples/portfolio links if possible ☺️
