btw Kanye did a song Heil Hitler and no one stepped in to oppose his tour(s), which is ongoing. In fact, Kanye is scheduled to perform at one of the stadiums Macklemore has been stopped from being at.

It's Day 1 of Andy Burnham being Prime Minister & Donald Trump is celebrating the destruction of our planet. Meanwhile Spain doubled it's renewables - before they had some of the highest bills in Europe and now some of the lowest bills. Labour need to stop appealing to Trump.

The People of Aberdeen, in Scotland, are dancing in the streets because the new Prime Minister, Andy Burnham, has stated that he will be opening up, all the way, the invaluable North Sea Oil! It is one of the Greatest Sources of quality Oil on Earth, has hundreds of years of Capacity left, with much not even found yet, and will make the United Kingdom, from a Poverty Stricken Disaster, to one of the Richest Countries anywhere in the World! Britain pays Norway Billions of Dollars a year to buy its Oil, which they get from a less valuable part of the North Sea — How ridiculous is that! Also, word is that the UK is going to move the old and horrible looking windmills, which loom over and destroy the City of Aberdeen.That will be a big day for the Country, and will be very much appreciated by everybody. Such great potential in the UK, but it all starts with OPENING NORTH SEA OIL. WE LOVE YOU SCOTLAND! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Gave myself some time to do some painting the other day and I'm really pleased with what came of it 😊 Watercolour with white gouache and plenty of pencil over the top for texture and definition. #Tundra #illustration #painting #art #kidlitart

A painting in watercolour, a dark blue background with white paint illustration over the top. A long curling dragon weaves around the outside, with a small girl in the centre, her eyes shut, holding her hands gently in front of her. Small white outline leaves are dotted about the place decoratively.

It's little me! ✨ Celebrating who I was a kid, in all her weird and wonderful glory, by drawing little me surrounded by the beasts and creatures that I was utterly obsessed with at that age (nothing has changed since then, honestly...) #kidlit #kidlitart #illustration

An illustration of a little girl, pale and freckly, brown hair, wearing an oversized orange jumper with a green frog on the front, green shorts, and baggy yellow socks. She's looking up in awe, surrounded by sketched drawings of various animals, including a bat, iguana, worms, woodlice, a fox, and snails.

Right-wing freaks use the word 'Woke' instead of the classic Nazi 'Degenerate' to describe good things for two reasons; its easier to spell, and it allowed them to steal something from black people.

Also, the Bat'leth is legit. My amazing friend and wonderful partner teamed up and MADE me a solid steel, full size, custom Bat'leth for my birthday 😍

My capacity for drawing has been drastically low for months, but something that rarely fails to get me creating something is #ParisPaloma lyrics and songs. Had a bunch of fun making this one into a book cover.

A book cover titled "The Warmth" by Paris Paloma. It shows a yellow outlined dragon-like head rising from abstract dark blue shapes with a warm orange background and small yellow star above its head.
