Meet Backpack, your 2026 Fat Bear Week champion. Backpack is 20 years old, weighs about 1,000 pounds and got his nickname because, as a cub, he loved riding on his mom's back across the Brooks River.

If you cut the roof off of Baba Yaga’s hut it can still run around for several minutes, but this is only a reflex action of the house’s nerves, not magic (as previously believed)

all my life I've thought about my separation from hong kong and my parents' culture as necessarily a loss, but never thought maybe we also gained a person who is better equipped to seeing her parents as whole flawed people and isn't so deep into things like hating on other asians (yeah there's some)

Daily bunny no.3452 can hear the bustle of the city
A bunny stands outside their thatched roof hut, observing a small cabbage patch. Birds are nearby. Their cottage is built against the side of a stone wall, on the other side of which is an old-fashioned city where city-dwelling bunnies roam

well well well i really wanted to make something new for the only show I'm officially tabling at this year (BEC the weekend of Nov 14) so here we are. it'll be about 28 pages of collected comics + art. you really can just make a little book if you want to!
downstream: collected little daoist and friends. bubble text set on a pond paintingbug or rabbit, who 
can say--
they drift downstream,
to seek the Way

in flowers and sun,
in rain or tree
perhaps those smallest
are the ones most
free

A carved "pillar-biter" from the church of St. Bavo in Haarlem, from 1509-1517. With roots in Medieval iconography, pillar-biters represented hypocrisy and false piety. More here: www.leidenmedievalistsblog.nl/articles/dev...

If this isn’t now your favourite Roman carving, you’re wrong. It is. I will not be discussing this further. Found Vindolanda; on display Chesters.
A really cute little running wild boar, looks like it could be from Shaun the Sheep.

it's like everyone's forgotten canada has also never elected a female head of state (it's bc the queen is our head of state) (but also we have never had a female pm who wasn't just holding the bag, I can't remember the last time the federal parties ran with a female leader, be quiet green party)
