Getting my print on. Nothing is call ready for prime time, but I’m getting closer. I’m enjoying getting into a new art form and figuring out the process. Once it clicks I’ll be able to start cranking!

@cmsullivan.bsky.social Any chance you could add me to your sapphic SFFH starter pack? Thank you for pulling it together!!!

There are so many lessons current day LGBTQ+ activists and advocates can learn from what ACT UP did in the 80s and 90s. Really great piece by Anna Wenner. newsisout.com/2024/11/how-...

Sadly, I don't know who to credit, but here is one of the greatest flow charts of all time. (There will be no discussion on this matter.)

And this is Batman's Aff His Nut by Robert Florence, which, in my opinion, is easily the greatest Scottish poem ever written about Batman...

When you’re that person who is climbing through the pine straw at the edge of the doctor’s office parking lot trying to get a good pic of the super cool mushrooms they have coming up…

Oh, you're a master of puppets? Come back when you have your doctorate of puppets.

'Very few people have seen them. But on a recent field trip the Ngururrpa rangers were lucky enough to have one fly in and land in their camp.' 😮 The largest population of night parrots has been discovered in Western Australia, including a breeding site! 🥳🧪🦉 www.theguardian.com/world/2024/s...

100% this. I hated having my cancer crap cast as this heroic struggle. I out one foot in front of the other until treatment was complete. I was lucky enough to have tumors that responded well to treatment before the treatment killed me. There is no glory in not dying of disease.

Remember: if this funds, I have to write a story for them! So if you want to force me to write....you know what to do!

First linocut in 20+ years, and I went with mushrooms, bc why not. They’re neat lil guys and offer so much opportunity for experimenting with texture and line weight. First few look good, but I need to clean up the block a bit before trying to pull enough for a decent edition.

Apologies for the crappy photo. Has anyone seen a white tympanum on a green frog before? Pic was taken at one of my ponds. I’ve never seen this on any of the local green frogs (I’m in Raleigh, NC) and trying to find an answer on Google was useless. #frogsky #herpsky #frogs

Lots of shrooms! I’m taking a printmaking class and a one color linocut is our first assignment. I’m looking forward to figuring out all the different textures. And to not cutting my fingers…

Is Wiley the cutest fur rug in the work, or what? Asking for him.

Two new pots getting ready for glaze and second firing. I can’t get over how talented my wife is, and I’m always happy to do my scratchings on the pots she makes. I’m in love with the naughty cats scoping out forbidden objects.

This gorgeous orbweaver set up shop in our front pollinator bed. The pics don’t do her justice. Her underside is a beautiful metallic gold that doesn’t come through at all. She’s about the size of the first joint of my thumb. I hope she sticks around for a while.

It's time for Green Heron fledglings to be out and exploring the world with their big feet and quiet curiosity #birds 🌿

I don't know what this joke is. This is just the first thing that comes to mind when I hear this famous lyric.

basketball’s all like gimme that pumpkin i need it and tennis is all like fuck this lemon you take it

I’m pleased to announce that we finally have spawn in our ponds! The grey tree frogs have been busy, and I’m looking forward to tadpoles on a few days!

My most unhinged belief, that I will defend to the death, you ask? Easy. It should be illegal to mow, landscape, or water golf courses. You should have to play in whatever the natural landscape of the area is. Through an RFID chip in the ball and aim for the clear patches, you cowards.

Juneteenth does not celebrate "When news of the end of slavery finally reached Texas." Juneteenth celebrates when the racist people in Texas that tried to hold on to slavery for as long as they could even after it was abolished, finally couldn't keep up the lie anymore.

say what you will about AI, it's impressive how it ingests the entire history of human artistic achievement & spits out something like if you dumped a can of ballpark nacho cheese sauce over a Thomas Kinkade painting

“Periodic re-vaccination for COVID-19, may cause people to gradually build up a stock of broadly neutralizing antibodies that protect them from emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants and some other coronavirus species as well, even ones that have not yet emerged to infect humans.” SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS! 🧪

Don’t know who made this, but I feel attacked.

The color palette makes him look ephemeral, in the way fire is. Not the look I’d be going for if I was a monarch.

This very well fed rat snake was our front porch visitor yesterday. Alas, I can only post it on Bluesky, since my mom follows me on other platforms, and she has a crippling fear of sneks.

A general reminder—periodic cicadas pose no threat to anyone and their plant damage is limited to nipping off the ends of twigs. Please do not hose them with pesticide. They are slow and clumsy and confused and only want to make friends with other cicadas and die of sexual exhaustion.
