Heard real-life baby alligator noises and had to do an animation.

It's real Groke weather out there.

Gift for @mariesposeets.bsky.social featuring their adorable lil owl, Twy! I couldn’t resist drawing her, and I highly recommend checking out their art and giving them a follow if you’re looking for more whimsical art in your life 🐦

nest
Twyla, an owl, sprawled on a messy "nest" made of pillows, couch cushions, and blankets, along with a laptop, chargers, and phone.

It seemed true and funny when I painted it last night?
A watercolor, pen, and color pencil illustration of a marten dressed as Willy Wonka, posed like the classic Wonka meme. Marten: Oh, so you like mustelids? You must be a wild, sexy science person.

Amazing statement from the chaplain of the MN Timberwolves, I’m guessing in response to the craven press release co-signed by so many local CEOs today (inc the Timberwolves!) calling for the “deescalation of tensions” here but refusing to assign any specific blame or even *mention* ICE / CBP
STATEMENT FROM MATT MOBERG, CHAPLAIN OF THE MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES IF YOU'RE A CHURCH POSTING PRAYERS FOR PEACE AND UNITY TODAY WHILE MY CITY BLEEDS IN THE STREET. MISS ME WITH THAT SOFTNESS YOU ONLY WEAR WHEN IT COSTS YOU NOTHING. DON'T DRESS AVOIDANCE UP AS HOLINESS. DON'T CALL SILENCE "PEACEMAKING." DON'T LIGHT A CANDLE AND THINK IT SUBSTITUTES FOR SHOWING UP. TONIGHT AN ICE AGENT TOOK A PHOTO OF ME NEXT TO MY CAR, LOOKED ME IN THE EYE AND TOLD ME, "WE'LL BE SEEING YOU SOON." NOT METAPHOR. NOT HYPERBOLE. A THREAT DRESSED UP IN A BADGE AND A PAYCHECK. PEACE ISN'T WHAT YOU ASK FOR WHEN THE BOOT IS ALREADY ON SOMEONE'S NECK. PEACE IS WHAT THE POWERFUL ASK FOR WHEN THEY DON'T WANT TO BE INTERRUPTED. UNITY ISN'T NEUTRAL. UNITY THAT REFUSES TO NAME VIOLENCE IS JUST LOYALTY TO THE ONES HOLDING THE WEAPONS. STOP USING SCRIPTURE LIKE CHLOROFORM. STOP CALLING YOUR FEAR "WISDOM." STOP PRETENDING JESUS WAS CRUCIFIED BECAUSE HE PREACHED GOOD VIBES AND PERSONAL GROWTH. YOU DON'T GET TO QUOTE SCRIPTURE LIKE A LULLABY, WHILE INJUSTICE STAYS WIDE AWAKE. YOU DON'T GET TO ASK GOD TO "HEAL THE LAND" IF YOU WON'T EVEN LOOK AT THE WOUND. THERE IS A KIND OF PEACE THAT ONLY EXISTS BECAUSE IT REFUSES TO TELL THE TRUTH. THAT PEACE IS A LIE. AND LIES DON'T GROW ANYTHING WORTH SAVING. THE SCRIPTURES YOU LOVE WEREN'T WRITTEN TO KEEP THINGS CALM. THEY WERE WRITTEN TO SET THINGS RIGHT. AND SOMETIMES THE MOST FAITHFUL THING YOU CAN DO IS STOP PRAYING AROUND THE PAIN AND START STANDING INSIDE IT. IF THAT MAKES YOU UNCOMFORTABLE-GOOD. GROWTH ALWAYS IS.

A bunch of fish in a quasi medieval manuscript style. There's a sunfish, a weird dunkleosteus thing with huge tusks, a weird coelacanth looking dude, and a few other weird guys that don't resemble any specific fish, including a very grumpy looking fish with legs at the bottom.

The regime will lie. That's what fascist regimes do.

It will continue to murder people in different ways. That's also what fascist regimes do.

Regular people will continue to refuse and to not cooperate and to fight back in all of the ways we can.

They crave Black and brown faces cowed by their cruelty and subjugation so much that, when we're not cooperative, they'll just manufacture it.

Stoat Quest episode... 8?
LeStoat's quest continues: (The stoat is wandering through the snowy wilderness.) Stoat: I’ll miss my mysterious marten lover, but surely I’ll meet some interesting new characters as I continue my quest. (the stoat sees someone ahead. They are wearing a wizard hat and robe, their features completely obscured. They also have a staff). Stoat: Oh! Here’s one now! (stoat approaches the mystery person) Stoat: Greetings, fellow wanderer. I am on a quest for floof. Mysterious Wizard: Floof you say? (the wizard looks up and their features are revealed. The "wizard" looks suspiciously like the same marten from the previous comics) Marten: Now that takes me back. Stoat (paws open wide): Get over here and hug me, b*tch. Made with pen, watercolor, and color pencil.

Stoat Quest, Episode... 5? 7?
The marten from the previous comics and the questing stoat are holding paws lovingly. Marten: Please! Don't leave! Stoat: I care for you deeply. Yet I cannot abandon my quest... My quest for floof. (The stoat has now gathered their sword and shield and is walking off into the snowy plains at sunset) Marten (calling after the stoat): But what will you do when you find the floof? Stoat (turns back and flashes devil horns sign with paws): Motorboat that sh*t.
