Hi everyone! Today is #kidlitartpostcard day! ☻

I’m Juliana Salcedo, a Colombian illustrator based in Spain. I love to work with limited palettes and clean lines, and I am fond of typography.

I’m repped by Susan Hawk @ UpstartCrow Literary

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

If you are a person who cares about books, you’re different from Jeff Bezos. Now would be a good day to stop shopping from Amazon, permanently.

No le debemos nada a la patronal, no le debemos nada a la clase política.

Se nos está robando y se nos está precarizando con ello. Y pretenden hacernos creer que es normal e inevitable.

Nos quejaremos, protestaremos y lucharemos hasta que entiendan que no no vamos a aceptar esto.

Lately the only part of Bluesky to bring me any joy has been the fountain pens feed. Consider this an expression of my gratitude.

Italian voice actor Carlo Bononi was the voice of all of the characters on Pingu. A trained clown by trade, he used a theater technique called grammelot, which consists of "speaking" in a mix of babbled gibberish noises. He improvised all the voices live and unscripted.
