A kid's drawing of a fennec fox. It looks a little like a surprised wombat.

Excuse me wtf is this. We all know what's missing here and the obvious absence just makes it more noticeable.
Magic card called Dance with Goblins. David Bowie as the Goblin King is there but his signature bulge is not.

Home for a sick day & did an entire arts & crafts project! I scanned, edited, formatted, printed, & hand cut every one of these cards myself. The original art was drawn by me with microns in lil sketchbooks over the course of a couple years. Followed various Inktober prompts. #U2 lyrics + #birds.

Sharp-shinned hawk swooping at my crows this morning. Crows don't really care, just making funny sounds at him and continuing to casually collect their peanuts. Sharpie, you're too small to catch a crow. And my feeders are empty so there's no lil guys around this morning. #birds

I'm very proud of my nerdy autistic hyperfocus today. My dad was on a whale watching boat 150 miles away from me. He sent me a few photos with very little information...and I NAILED the exact IDs of the individual orcas in his photos. Hell yeah! 🫍 #whalesky

Happy Hobbit Day! It's the best holiday, honestly. 🎂🟢
Two framed watercolors of burrowing owls and different flora. Each has a circle behind them in green or yellow. Each is labeled with a banner that says their names: Frodo and Sam. These are additionally also autographed by the corresponding actor: Elijah Wood and Sean Astin.

Spent almost all of art walk brainstorming orca oracle stuff (current WIP) with my bff/studio mate. Only stopped twice to chat with regular visitors. One brought me a turkey feather once. The other encouraged me to look up a Moby Dick performance thingy.

Did an art at least! Medieval bunnies for my friend of her bunnies. Drawn in micron pen and colored pencil.
Three medieval bunnies, one on a weird creature, one on a snail, and one blowing a horn. They are all perched in a row on a long medieval vine (?) of oak (?) Their names are written in handlettered medieval font. Drawn in micron pen and colored pencil.

Trans people are not the cause of any of your problems, and only assheads want you to believe they are.

I have met, I think, 7 trans folks in my 62 years. Perhaps more. But the 7 I know (in person, quite a few more online) All of them are lovely, caring people who deserve respect & love. If you don't believe that unconditionally, you are the problem, not them.
