Sold 50 of these bad bois overnight, so uh, yeah, it's popping off. I actually do have a cap on the number that can be sold in certain sizes due to warehouse inventory of blanks, so if you're after a 4/5XL, I'd hustle your bustle.

Hildegard -- always a free thinker -- wondered if maybe* if baby eels came from the sea, & adult eels went back to sea, that it was possible that the ocean was where they got busy. Weird, right? She also thought they grew from eggs...another bold (and correct!) guess. 2/2
Meme. Photograph of an eel out of water, on wet sand. The eel is dark in color, and slick looking. Physically slick, not car-salesman slick. There are hints of white along the bottom; this is likely a silver eel, having made the color transition to survive in the deep ocean on it's way back home to the Sargasso. It's current coloration doesn't do much to disguise it on a beach, however.

I use this eel somewhat frequently in memes, because I love how grumpy it looks. It's DONE with all this. Tired of you, tired of fresh water, tired of frickin' herons. It's expression is that of a very harried middle-school librarian trying to impose quiet on a room full of 13 yr old boys on Ice Cream Day.

Meme text reads:
"A little privacy, please!"

Friends! It's the feast day of St. Hildegard of Bingen, an abbess, polymath, mystic, & eel truth-teller. Medieval thinkers agreed that eels reproduce asexually. But Hildegard suggested that eels mate at sea, where we can't watch. No one listened to her. But she was right! 1/2 🗃️🧪
Meme. Painting of St. Hildegard, from the shoulders up. She is dressed up in her nunnish finery. Her wimple is white and very creased, so that she looks a bit like a mummy and her veil is the dusky black of that suggests it's been through the wash many times. She has something like a crown on her head, with little spikes that look for all the world like duck feet. The saint's eyebrows are hard lines like windshield wipers, & her nose is ski-jump smooth.

Her head is surrounded by a nimbus of blue with a white outline, set against an orange background. She is looking up and towards your right, as if she's watching a possum that's about to drop onto the person sitting next to you. Her mouth is set in a tight smile. She's likely thinking about sex again. And maybe not just eel sex.

Hildegard provided us with the first written description of the female orgasm, so it's quite possible that she's got that on her mind.

Meme text reads:
"Medieval Eel Truth:
It's all about the Bingen's, baby!"

Friends...it's Friday! So here, for your enjoyment, is a 15th C. marginal fellow is off to have a good time with an amazing eel. I hope that your weekend plans include fun and amazing things, too! 🗃️🧪
Medieval marginal art showing a man holding a very large eel, and looking somewhat lustily at it. He is waring a blue robe, and he is bald on the top of his head. He's cradling the eel, and holding it up as if to kiss it, or study it closely. Or bite it. His mouth is open, so you never know.

The man doesn't have legs, and the drawing ends in something that looks like an interlinear octopus tentacle. Is this an early form of tentacle porn? *  Reasonable scholars will all agree that it is. In any event, you should never trust this man with either your eel or your child. It will end badly, no matter what.

At the top of the page is another smaller drawing of a man's head at the end of something that looks like the body of a snake that ate a capybara. The man has a beard, and is looking back at his body as if to say, "WTF happened here?"

* If you don't already know what this is, don't look it up. Trust me.

Most of the time, I don't draw with a goal in mind. I start with empty intent, & see what develops. But sometimes, I draw with a purpose. Here's an example: a picture of my parents' dog drawn, which I drew for my mom's birthday. Do I draw such things on commission? Yes I do! You just have to ask!
Art. Black and white drawing of a dog (it's a spaniel, even!) looking hopefully upwards, as if there is food in the offing. The drawing is made of abstract shapes and lines, but you can tell. This is a dog with curly fur, a stout collar, and a heart full of belief.

Very early in the pandemic, I spent 2 terrible weeks in isolation, unable to breathe or walk across the room. Waiting my temp. to spike. Worrying about my kids. Fighting against dying. In the middle of this covid revisionist, anti-vax bullshit, it was worth saying what that felt like:
Poem titled "Gnawed." The text of the poem reads:

Gnawed

Kalends of April, 2020

I can feel the rat,
dark and angry,
buried
in the furrows of my chest,
trying hard to pull apart
the fiber of my breathing.
Twisting. Writhing.
Clawing
with a feral-hearted hatred
at the bonds that sinew
soul to skin.
I cannot walk across the room without
the rasping of its teeth
along the inside of my ribs,
or speak without it screaming
in the shallows of my breath.
I can only lie beyond
the borders of my life,
checking the thermometer
a hundred times a day
as all the while
I am being
eaten
from the inside out.

	– John Wyatt Greenlee

There comes a point in wealth accumulation where your money doesn’t buy you anything other rich people can’t get but the ability to increase the harm you can do by greater orders of magnitude & it’s way less money than what Elon Musk has. It’s way less money than JK Rowling has too.

What makes a woman a witch? Financial independence
Women aren’t being burnt at the stake any more, but there is still risk and violence implicit in the label ‘witch’ When Katherine Harrison’s husband passed away, she became the wealthiest woman in Wethersfield, Connecticut. Rather than wallow in her new status as a young widow she decided to run the farm she’d inherited on her own. She took up ranching and a slew of other hobbies including brewing ale, spinning yarn and beekeeping. She traded honey and beeswax for candles. She was by all accounts, headstrong, outspoken and clever. In many corners of the internet, Harrison’s interests are having a moment. Craft brewers have been spruiking classic ales for years, urban beekeeping is surging in popularity, and people are looking to textile-based crafts as ways to practise mindfulness.
