yes yes yes yes!!

And the speed that their safety was dismantled is dizzying.

I don't know how to deal with the reality that my nephews are in more danger of childhood infectious diseases than I was. I worry about them all of the time.

They're gorgeous! ♥️🧡💛

I felt this way so hard when I read hs lol, at least my rising is Aries and Aradia is pretty cool

Yeah, I've been thinking about how status quo/normalcy isn't stable anymore and trying to weigh that against going for what I want to do. Doesn't feel like it's that much more risky anymore

That also makes me angry about our healthcare systems but that's a whole other thing lol

Sometimes when I'm upset and feeling like I haven't accomplished much at my age, I remember how much time in my young adulthood was spent with under-treated crohnic illness and feel a little better.

Your design sense is SO good!

And expecting people to act like Newsome is a given forecloses better options in the primary.

Yeah!! I pre-ordered that book so fast lol

This was such a fun stream!!!!

I've never preordered something so fast

Sometimes you just learn your tastes better as you discover why you don't like something and why you do like the exceptions. That's a fun part of exploring lots of media.

Cal Bird Update! Cal Bird Update! I just saw a Red-Breasted Nuthatch on my maple!! I haven't seen any in a couple of years! They migrate here for the winter and I've missed them! This has been your Cal Bird Update.

Good public transit...I believe it exists somewhere in the world *wistful sigh*

Attemps at drawing some hobbits. The top is Frodo and the bottom two are Samwise

I doodled some hobbits. I felt Samwise should have freckles because he works out in the sun.

A rabbit in overalls and a goat in pants are sitting on the ground drawing pictures. The rabbit is saying “ART POSES A THREAT TO CORPORATOLRATIC SYSTEMS BECAUSE A PURPOSE OF ART IS TO REMIND THE INDIVIDUAL OF THEIR INHERENT AUTONOMY.”, the goat adds “THEIR HUMANITY.”

Make Art (1/4)

Yeah…

It's really something how hostile the internet and software services have become to people. Just incredible stuff.

Photo of the described owl art. It looks like muddy scratch marks on a mottled brown cave wall. The head is very round with two upright lines for ears and a line in the center for a beak. Numerous parallel lines suggest plumage on the wings.

The oldest known image of an owl:

More than 30,000 years ago, someone skillfully scratched the figure of a long-eared owl (Asio otus) into the soft outer layer of the walls of Chauvet Cave, France. The owl is looking backward over their wings, head turned 180 degrees
