5 Calls @5calls.org · Jul 2

Hearing a lot of reports of people getting busy signals / hang ups

A) This is most likely a result of high call volumes, which is good!

B) Try a local office! They count the same as DC calls. Those numbers are also listed on 5calls.org (iOS: click the 3 dots by DC #, Android: click "local office")

5 Calls

Spend 5 minutes. Make 5 calls. Make your voice heard.

Chirin's Bell Tolls
My finished piece for the @furryfootage.bsky.social zine!
This zine is still available at: furryfoundfootage.itch.io/furry-found-...
#chirinsbell | #art007 | #furryfoundfootage

An ornamental piece of Chirin's Bell. Young chirin stands happily surrounded by flowers as an older Chirin glares down from a cliff, horns dripping blood. The border is decorative gold depicting sheep running from a wolf, rams, wolf skulls, wolf skeletons, birds nests, and a wolf running from a ram.

Contrary to popular belief the biggest beginner's roadblock to art isn't even technical skill it's frustration tolerance, especially in the age of social media. It hurts and the frustration is endless but you must build the frustration tolerance equivalent to a roach's capacity to survive a nuclear explosion. That's how you build on the technical skill. Throw that "won't even start because I'm afraid it won't be perfect" shit out the window. Just do it. Just start. Good luck.

Little Sparks ✨️

Acrylic painting of a slightly glowing bluish white fox with antlers heading down some rounded purple rocks with glowing pools of blue water and patches of grass and pink flowers dotted between, watching some sparks of light dancing across the scene. The sky above is black.

A green caterpillar-like creature with ten limbs (six hindlimbs, four claw-like forelimbs), a forked tail and six horns; vaguely resembles a dragon/drake. One claw waves while looking towards the viewer with a smiley emoji.

The same caterpillar creature but with a light orange underside. It stands on four hindlegs while wiggling two claws.

Another color variation of the caterpillar creature, now resembling the colors of a slice of cantaloupe while literally crawling over one.

Bust shots of the caterpillar creatures with two color variations. The light green with an orange underside to the left and a dark teal with opaque yellow underside and details.

Happy 3-year anniversary to Don't Play Defense #Art #Pride

Mspaint doodle- a person strides forward, wearing a shirt with a trans flag. They say "I LOVE being trans!". They have an expression of pure glee.

The person is stopped by someone else, who accusingly points while they say "You! Justify your happiness to me!"

The accosting person says "Debate me no-". They are cut off by the person in the trans shirt saying "No thank you!" as lasers shoot from their eyes, exploding the head of the other character in a cartoonish fashion.

The accosting person stands, alive but expressionless as their headless torso smolders. The person in the trans shirt walks away, a stupidly happy grin still present.
