Sorry, the photo could be clearer, but a *huge* squirrel was pawing and licking all over the window after a recent storm knocked the feed everywhere.
I need to add bigger treats for the bigger critters. Can't imagine this fella gets much out of these tiny seeds.

Is it weird to be put off by a person saying "hope you feel better soon" in response to you mentioning your worsening mental health?
I'm not even mad, just feeling kind of... Confused, I guess?

It would be nice to learn something about my extended family that is positive, rather than the usual, "oh, this family member is *also* grossly bigoted."
Feels like you could count the number of decent family on one hand. 😞

The amazing little Cuban restaurant in our town has abruptly decided to close forever.
I swear nothing stays open here unless it's country fried or your typical "Mexican" restaurant.
I'm so legitimately upset about this.

Gorgeous yarn! But why an AI logo?
"Because I'm poor!! 😡"
So are artists and designers. 🤷

In case you were curious, the theme for Black History Month this year is LABOR.

Consider the ways our labor has benefited this country. From literally building it from the ground up to our cultural influence. There is no United States without Black Americans!

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references.

Enter this: a repository of open-access, AI-free images of wild & exotic taxa. Artists creating *without AI* have blanket permission for derivative/transformative use.

Now, this is important! The Video Game History Foundation has launched its online library, and it's already packed with magazines, productions docs, and promo material.

Additional scripts for cis het white men who want to be better allies:

“What a weird thing to say”

“Do you hear yourself right now?”

“You shouldn’t say shit like that to people”

“I won’t let you talk to them that way”

“That’s a disgusting opinion to have”

“Shut the fuck up, dude”
Cis men truly need to understand the power of saying “that’s fucked up bro why would you say that” to another cis man
The responsibility for resisting and correcting this behavior shouldn’t fall solely on a specific gender. If you’re a man of conscience and you see another man mimicking Nick Fuentes, fuck him up on sight before the women even get a chance. I mean that.

Always a good reminder: Your skill at social media is not equal to your skill as an artist. Higher follower number =/= better artist.
