Two sketches in ink and watercolor pencil of my birds. On top is an American Robin in the grass and below is a juvenile Eastern bluebird on a red thorny branch.

Two quick sketches to refine a particular style. Done with ink and watercolor pencils, an American robin and an Easter bluebird.

A watercolor painting of an alpaca. The head of the alpaca is visible above and to the right of a wooden fence, with a bit of wire fencing visible below the chin of the animal. It is predominantly white with a little warm brown showing in places. The background is abstracted and blurred out but in shades of blue, green, and brown.

This weekend I finished this watercolor painting of an alpaca that I met at a local farm.

JK Rowling pledges to keep up fight against SNP trans policies Author vows to bankroll campaigners after Scottish government fails to pay group's legal fees in Supreme Court equality case

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

What would have been better:

"Are you in favor of 'biological males' playing women's sports?"

"It's very rare, and the only people who should be concerned with it are those directly involved: the parents, the team, the sport's governing org. Otherwise, its nobody's business but theirs."

NEW: We're asking a court to expand our clients' recent legal victory to ensure that all transgender, non-binary, and intersex people can be issued passports with the correct gender marker.

Judge Blocks Passport Ban For Plaintiffs, Citing Government Animus And Equal Protection The federal judge ruled that transgender people's passport changes do not, as the Trump executive order stated, deprive the "dignity, safety, and well-being of women."

1. In a landmark ruling, a federal judge has blocked the passport ban for transgender Americans... government ban likely violates equal protection, and is made with animus.

Though the ruling only applies to plaintiffs, it is expected expand in coming weeks.

Thank you, and thanks for the video clip! We get a good amount of woodpeckers in our yard with downies and red-bellies being the most prominent. Less common are the hairies, and once in a while we'll even see a pileated at the feeder!

Thank you!

Thank you, and thanks for letting me know the alt text is good. I don't think I've ever posted without adding it, but I want to know if I ever forget it or if I'm missing the mark on it.

Thank you!

If you're cis, one thing I'd like to impart with regards to trans people is that you are being lied to on an almost unfathomable scale, from billionaires like Musk, to religious fundamentalist groups, to print and broadcast media, to entire governments, they're committed to spreading malinformation.
