Happy Children’s Day!

Honor your inner child (even if you’re paying bills now 😂)

Well done forwomen.scot .

Women exist. Who would have thought!!

After that inconvenient hiatus, let's resume feminism and fight for our rights like it's 2012!!

Glad to hear it! Hope you feel much better

Follow-up appt at @sunnybrookhsc.bsky.social went well! My eye pressure is back to normal after my glaucoma surgery. Don't need eyedrops yet.

Going back in a few months to check again, but things have stabilized (YAY).

For those who missed it, here's what's been happening with my vision.

🇨🇳 China just restricted exports of 7 rare earth metals—samarium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, lutetium, scandium, and yttrium, all essential for U.S. fighter jets, missiles, submarines, EV motors, wind turbines, and radar systems. The U.S. can’t replace the supply.

It was my birthday day over the weekend! 39 laps around the sun!

Academic free speech is too crucial to be used as a political football by left or right | Sonia Sodha Labour is wrong to put on hold a law that aims to protect staff from external pressures

It really worries me to see the left increasingly act as if free speech & free expression are right-wing issues/talking points. Put aside your dislike of the people involved & look at the substance rather than come to tribal snap judgments, for the love of god.

A flat lay of 2024 bullet journaling supplies, including an open planner with a key for symbols like tasks and events, a blank notebook, purple washi tape, a red pen, and a black pen on a wooden desk next to a computer keyboard.

Watching DAMSEL as I prep my 2025 bullet journal. Any other #bulletjournal fans out there?

As much as I rely on digital tools, I find my morning ritual of writing top 3 tasks in a physical bullet journal calming, keeps me from feeling overwhelmed. Plus an excuse to use #fountainpens & #washitape. 😁

I heavily rely on sticky notes. I feel you; nothing beats physical pen and paper for putting down tasks and thoughts✨

We’re all in a story. Our own story. And the stories of others.

Grounded in Story ✨

At the end of the evening, some of us were exchanging Bluesky profile info. 🦋💙

Sketches of Igbo masquerades and their meanings

Working on a picture book and I absolutely love the research + sketching phase 🙌🏽

Today we honor and remember all the Natives who were slaughtered after helping white invaders from Europe from starving to death.

Been meaning to do this for a minute but with the current exodus now is a good time. I have made two starter packs for Pro Illustrators. There were just too many good illustrators here to fit into one.

I enjoy visiting my sister’s house and discovering she’s ordered white beach balls on the Internet specifically to do this. #googlyeyes

Cover of the SCBWI bi-monthly magazine, Bulletin from Sept./Oct. 2012 - on the cover is an illustration of a young boy spray painting a mural of a red kite over a colorful starburst of yellow hues on the side of a building. It is snowing and there's a woman watching the boy painting with a sense of wonder on her face.

Was honored to illustrate the cover to the SCBWI Bulletin back in 2012. Was pretty happy with how this came out.
