Day 4 of #ArtAdventCalendar this is from a couple years ago. I do these textile things more as a form of drumming than trying to make art but I like the way the colours interact

Day 4 of the #ArtAdventCalendar is a coloring sheet I drew during the early times of the pandemic. Still a favourite of mine.

Finland solved homelessness as well.

They gave people houses for free.

Those crazy Finns. What will they think of next?

Probably lifelong, free education or something.

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?

That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.

The media and especially he new york times blared about an impending recession during 200 out of 208 weeks under biden. Bloomberg in Oct 2022 claimed it was 100% certain. There’s not a peep from these chuds now
It’s only a recession if it comes from the Democratic region of France, otherwise it’s just sparkling Republican mass layoffs and crushing inflation.

the people came
by sea
by land & ice
they spread & grew
hunted & built
languages, beliefs, arts
all shifted & formed
till over 1000 civilizations existed, in war or peace
creating plants & music & life
their drums still beat
their vision & strength
their dance
still in our feet

One of the prime reasons I refuse to use rodent poisons is because I love seeing all the things that come to eat the rodents - from gopher snakes to owls. Chip in if you can!
Barn Owls are one of the species that suffer the most rodenticide poisoning. We’re killing the best weapon we have against rodents w/ our inability to use proper pest control management. Help us change that by donating to our campaign #birds #birdsofprey #ratpoisoniswildlifepoison

🚨Feeding the hungry and using freedom of speech after 6pm is an ARRESTABLE offense in Florida? There is a long line of people waiting for food and this man arrests a volunteer? The indefensible side of history, captured.

I remember you
your tough life
your creative spirit in spite of everything
you taught so many
kids who needed more experiences
working moms who wanted a better life
& us, your own children
I still sing the songs you sang while working
& make your favorite recipes
& miss you

Can't believe I've been so busy that I missed days 1 and 2 of #ArtAdventCalendar

Day 3. This is a piece I made for Christmas last year but couldn't share until after Christmas.

In the Netherlands, where the Dutch invest in safe cycling, the over-65s cycle around a quarter of their journeys, while the over-80s cycle around 10% of theirs.

Low Traffic Neighbourhoods and cycle lanes don't 'restrict freedom', they expand it.

Contact your reps directly.

I keep seeing stuff about a petition and like, contact your reps directly. Sign that too if you want, but petition signatures are a lesser priority.
Congress is attempting to fast track KOSA and more than a dozen bills that would restrict internet access, censor speech and increase surveillance under the guise of protecting children.

Committee hearings begin tomorrow.
Lawmakers to consider 19 bills for childproofing the internet
KOSA is back, along with more than a dozen other bills that will erode free speech and privacy in the name of protecting kids.

the sun shines down
a bright day
full of beautiful people
running, playing, enjoying
except for the trash
clogging the beach
tangled with the seaweed
it's hotter than it used to be
but all ignore
storms brewing destruction
rolling in from the sea while
the sun shines down
