Python was awarded a funding grant, funding grant asked Python foundation to remove all diversity and inclusion initiatives they have.

Python foundation said no and rejected the grant.

If you use Python, send a few dollars to the charity to keep it going. I’m pushing a dono on behalf of ScamGuard.

It's dangerous to go alone.

Hell yeah bouldering!

Spent the afternoon writing, just kept picking at little bits over and over again until the sun set and suddenly was struck by inspiration. I put them in the struggle pit

That’s gorgeous!!

The face of a black and white cat, mostly black, but with a pink nose and a triangle of white radiating downward from his forehead. He looks rather smug.

A long overdue update on Pard: After Charles passed away in January, we had to situate Pard, thankfully to a familiar home and with personal assistants he loves and who tend to his every need, a place he stayed many times before. As the images suggest, he is both Fine and Doing Fine.

Made it through exams. Made it through the year. Every day keeps coming and we get caught in the wave. Today I’ve got my feet under me

Some people tell me one of the things they like most about my art is how I use color. I don't believe myself any sort of expert, but I do like to share how I work, so here we go! (1/7)
