What are your favorite recent non-fiction covers?
Jamie Loftus wearing an orange 90’s spaghetti strap tank top with a butterfly over overalls with one strap strapped. And the cover of her book Raw Dog: The Naked Truth About Hotdogs. The letters in RAW DOG are capitalized and written in mustard, which I do not like on my hot dog, but I love on the cover. To represent my personal hot dog preferences, I have a head-cannon version with a yellow background with RAW DOG written in ketchup. Jamie is crazy talented and, not that it matters, but super hot; you should also listen to her brilliant, beautiful podcasts: Sixteenth Minute (of Fame), The Bechdel Cast (Co-hosted with Caitlin Durante), My Year in Mensa, Lolita Podcast, Aack Cast, and Ghost Church. New paperback edition is out, the e-book is another economical option, and it’s available at the library too!🌭🎀

Timelapse of my painting, 'Capy Easter," created in Procreate! I love digital painting for the flexibility. This started out as a doodle, and morphed into something entirely unexpected!

The more animals join the lineup, the more absurd this ecosystem appears. More to come!

Undoubtedly the most impressive of the Kem Kem theropods, Spinosaurus itself. Size comparison below ⬇️

My painting, "Capybaras in a Bath"! This is one of the first paintings I spent some time thumbnailing the composition.

Squeezed in some time for one more #AvianAugust illustration! Here's 'Akohekohe, and I sure do need to get myself to Maui some day to see one! 🎨🪶 #BirdArt #SciArt
Digital illustration of a large honeycreeper standing on a leafy branch. The bird is mostly dark blue-gray with a white tuft on the forehead, orange patches around the eyes and nape, silver arrow-shaped feathers on the head, and mottled orange and white on the back, flanks, and wings.

Bonjour !

Pour cette nouvelle publication, je vous propose de bien distinguer le machaon (Papilio machaon) du flambé (Iphiclides podalirius).

#Bestiologie #Insectes #Papillons

1/n
Illustration représentant un machaon et un flambé, avec des illustrations de chaque papillon réalisées à l’encre noire et aux crayons de couleur accompagnées de photographies des deux espèces. Pour le machaon, les critères d’identification notés sur l’image sont les suivants : un jaune plus prononcé, des veines et taches noires, des ocelles rouges et des queues courtes. Pour le flambé, ce sont les suivants : un jaune plus terne, des zébrures noires, des ocelles bleus entourés de noir et orange et de longues queues.

To summarize
-waves are not seasonal
-vaccines are waning
-people are getting long covid
-it’s still not an endemic disease
-very young kids are at increased risk because they didn’t go through the initial vaccine series

Oh and it turns out, Covid Cautious people have been right the whole time.
