I teach my science students how to write comprehensive literature reviews & every semester I meet with them one-on-one to make sure the topics they've chosen are narrow enough they're actually able to find all the existing primary peer-reviewed research in one semester The topics can be surprising!

Playing with light I was trying to get the setting sun behind these flowers and all sorts of neat stuff happened. There’s a rainbow back there! Where did that come from? #BloomScrolling #BlueskyArtShow #summer 🌿

A spray of purple flowers in front of a rosy glow of light with a small rainbow going across it. Plus a bunch of silhouetted flowers and buds. Or maybe they’re shadows? It’s all rather abstract but beautiful.

The doll has dark, tousled textile hair; a pale, painted face with simple eyes and mouth; small gold earrings hanging at the sides of the head, wearing a neck ring and bracelets too.

Every authoritarian movement in history began by identifying a vulnerable group whose rights were framed as negotiable. How hard you are willing to fight for trans rights is the litmus test for whether or not you understand solidarity. It’s all of us or none of us.

My most recent work is a cat version of an IWW poster from 1911. Should be available soon. If you like my creations, please follow and visit my print shop at nathannunart.etsy.com for all kinds of great cat posters. Thank you, Cats of Yore!

A cat poster based on an old propaganda poster, "the pyramid of capitalist system." The poster is divided between various tiers. Workers and farmers are at the bottom holding up the next level. Text by them reads "we work for all" and "we feed all." That tier are the rich eating at a fancy table labelled "eat for you." Next is army and police, then intellectuals, priest, and journalist followed by "we rule you" which features a king and governors. At top of the pyramid is a bag of money with text reading "capitalism."

'A simple (perfect) life' - my spring landscape is finally finished! An apple orchard in bloom, old railway, sheep with their lambs and an allotment being prepared for growing :) Zoom in to see all the other tiny details too... I think this might be my favourite aerial embroidery I've ever done!

An embroidery hoop containing a sewn aerial view landscape. It depicts an apple orchard in bloom in the centre, allotments to the left and sheep in their field at the bottom. Train tracks go past the top of the orchard and allotment.

hi, cis folks! it’s been a little over a month since the 2 biggest private hospitals in NYC ended trans youth care. some folks thought this was resolved with a judge’s ruling or a letter from the NYAG. care has *not* resumed! there’s a simple ask ⬇️ for you, if you’re willing to fight with us. 🧵
