This is like an early birthday present for me and it is very affordable compared to the other things I've been shopping for and twice as nice!

Please remember that for every VE Schwab and Stephen King, there are a lot of banned Black, queer, and POC writers you've never heard of, to whom it is maybe not a badge of honor but a denial of their voice. Being banned is not a marketing opportunity, unless one is already rich.

These sticker sheets are surprisingly time-consuming, in part because I get so perfectionist with the details! I always strive to make stickers that I myself would be super excited to use. I hope you'll check them out when they are finished (and the rest of the cute art in my shop)! <3

[A parody of MR ROGERS’ NEIGHBOURHOOD, in which the kindly Mr Rogers takes us to see local things in his town.]

[title]
MR ROGERS’ NEIGHBOURHOOD

MR ROGERS:

Hi there

2
Today, I’d like to take you to visit some of my neighbours… 

[He puts his coat on to leave his house]  

3
At a wonderful local event,
 
[We see the cute toy-town diorama of his village famous from the TV show. The camera pulls out…]

4
The Data Center protest.

[The camera has pulled out further and now we see a huge DATA CENTER at the edge  of town]. 

5
MR ROGERS [joining a crowd protesting outside the Data Center]:

The Data Center is an enormous, windowless, endlessly humming building outside of our town

6
…Which has tripled energy prices, drank all the water, and created four jobs.

7
[to camera, as if kindly explaining to the viewing children]:

Four jobs! Golly!

8
LADY PROTESTOR [probably NAOMI KLEIN, holding a sign]:

In a way, the Data Center is kind of a vivid metaphor for a future we feel locked out of!

9
MR ROGERS [to camera again]:

A metaphor.

10
That’s something that lets us clarify our feelings about something else. 

11
LADY PROTESTOR:
How do you feel, Mr Rogers?

MR ROGERS:
I feel like bringing down the government!

12
MR ROGERS [now holding a sign and protesting]:

It’s good to have neighbors.

Doing a test for the Sailor Witch colors- I think the more colorful ones on the left are fun, but the ones on the right read a lot more as "witch" and "halloweeny" which is the vibe I want for this sticker sheet 🤔

CNN making this sound more mysterious than it is. It was Yersinia pestis, the plague, the researcher died because she inhaled it into her lungs and developed pneumonic plague, there is no danger but to those directly exposed in the lab. Fear-mongering in the time of global terror is a sick choice.

a surprisingly based talk on the dangers of gambling from Christoffersen. Like, take out the religious stuff and it still holds up. I hope the church puts together a resource on how to recognize gambling games, because it's seriously bad for your brain and your wallet.

My neighbor, asking how to hold her kid down to give him a haircut. This is the moment a person learns that "no" doesn't work, and that someone can use force to get what they want when you say no.

Has anyone here heard someone in public say, "That's so gay" (negative) lately? I associate with middle/high school in the 90s. And I've heard it maybe twice in the past 20 years, and both times it shocked me so much, not even because I was insulted, but because it felt so out of touch

as someone who does humanitarian work, i've been thinking a lot about how we overcomplicate it. when, basically, the premise is just that if you're alive now, you deserve to live freely until natural causes take you. we claim neutrality, but that simple perspective is in fact political.

One of the mule deer triplets taking a break in amongst my flowers and plants this afternoon. I went out to refill the birdbath and there s/he was lying down, just watching me. I had the phone in my pocket so I spoke quietly to her as I took a few photos then left her alone. #mammals
A mule deer fawn from this year, no more spots but still smaller than mama. She, or he, is lying down on the dirt/leaf litter and bark in amongst some plants and flowers. She/he has huge ears somewhat like a mule and that's why they're called mule deer. I just looked out the window and she/he is still there.

The best thing forme to do when the conversation turns nasty is to get up and leave. Unfortunately I have not figured out how to do that gracefully. You would think that announcing "i need to take a break while you talk about this" works but sadly....
