The image is of a four panel comic.
In panel one, we see a man sitting at a restaurant table. He is sweating. He says "Y-you have beautiful eyes".
The second panel zooms in on the man's face. He says, "I'm sorry. I'm just so nervous."
In panel three we see that a biblically accurate angel is sitting on the other side of the table.
In panel four we zoom in on the angel's face, who says "BE NOT AFRAID".

The image is of a four panel comic.
In the first panel, we see two stick figures. Text above them labels one as "book smart" and one as "street smart".
In the second panel we zoom out and see the two stick figures in nature next to a tree. There is a sign pointing out of the panel that says "LIFE".
In the third panel we see the street smart stick figure take the hand of the book smart stick figure. The street smart stick figure says "Come, I will guide you".
In the fourth panel we zoom out again and see the two stick figures walking in the direction of the "LIFE" sign. The book smart street figure looks back at the tree as they are walking and says, "I know a lot of facts about that tree".

Happy Caturday 🐾🤍
A black fluffy cat with huge round eyes and a curious expression looks directly upward at the viewer against a warm beige background. Above the cat is the text: “Whatever happened, happened. And because it happened, the present moment became exactly what it is. If our present is exactly what it had to be, then I was always going to be here. You were always going to be looking at me. And my tummy was always going to be empty. This was never a coincidence. This was destiny. This is bigger than both of us. Feed me.

A textured illustration with a mostly warm red background and an orange band across the top. In the center sits a black cat with very large glossy eyes, casting a soft shadow behind it. At the top, large white text reads: “EMBRACE YOUR INNER CAT” with the subtitle underneath: “Because humans make everything complicated.” Around the cat, handwritten phrases form a circular flow connected by curved white lines. The phrases read: “Be curious about life,” “Bite with love,” “Enjoy simple things fully,” “Stay playful,” “Be independent, but still affectionate,” “Set boundaries without guilt,” “Seek comfort and warmth,” and “Rest when you need rest.” The illustration has a cozy, playful, and uplifting feeling with warm red, pink, and orange tones throughout.

Transphobia is a cancer of the heart and mind. It is a useless fear, based on ignorance and cruelty. Trans people are not responsible for a single one of the problems we face. Do the world a favor and grow the fuck up.

Ominous bird valentines.
A collection of six ominous bird valentines set against a background of pink hearts. In the first one, a Canada Goose looks angry and hisses and the text says "Baby, I'll make you fall head over heels if you approach within 10m of my nest." In the second, an American white pelican opens its mouth to eat the reader and the text says "There are plenty of fish in the sea, but I want this one." In the third valentine, a Black Vulture looks suspiciously at the reader and the text says "I will love you until you die. And after that, I'll love you even more." A Southern Cassowary stands proudly against the heart-covered background. The text says "My wattles are red. My head is blue. My deadly reputation has been somewhat overblown, but I'd kill for you." In the fifth valentine, a Northern Giant-Petrel stands open-billed next to a large brown furry object, and the text says "Let's seal the deal by sharing a 3000 kg elephant seal carcass." In panel 6, a happy-looking Bearded Vulture holds a bone in its beak, and the text says "I love every part of you, especially your bones."
