These poor STARVÈD babies suffering from the lack of second breakfast while mother viciously ignores them to play on her phone. A cruel, cruel mother indeed to need such reminding as her babies WASTE AWAY. 🤣

The Fulbé constituted another significant scholarly diaspora in the region, especially the Toroɓɓe clerisy, which included some of the most prominent scholars in the kingdoms of Bornu and Bagirmi (modern Chad).

I am trudging through the federalist papers. But as they argue for a standing federal army during peacetime, and how it's laughable that this could ever be a bad thing, I wonder how they would interpret WTF Ice is doing right now, acting just like the King of England's private standing army?

We are currently working round the clock to save 40+ cats who were living in a home that recently burned down. These cats are in addition to the 100s we are caring for as winter is begins. We are in desperate need of food for all. If you can help we'd appreciate it.

spent the past week making design elements to scan at high res so i don't have to abuse the stamp tool quite so hard
also tempted to fill the rest of this & finally do the tapestry/blanket thing, it's roughly the same size as the thing i scanned for the other one
