Fun fact: in the 1960s, Civil Rights protestors were given literal classes on nonviolent protest; they didn't all just spontaneously know what to do. So, if you're planning on showing up, this weekend: read this comic. And if you're staying home, signal-boost it/link it around.

I did my best to compile as many protest safety notes as possible into a one page foldout zine! Coincidentally…it seems the file has breached containment…like it’s available for anyone to print or hand out 👀⚖️ toonyart.com/s/PSZine.pdf

Oh! But I uncovered a wee baby salal (I've been trying to smother out the periwinkle with this, and this is the first baby I've found from those plantings), and a good size Beaked Hazelnut and Red-flowering Currant that have appeared (but I still need to liberate from the brambles). 🎉

I just need to make sure you all see that sweaty squid is making a friendship bracelet that says I love crab.

I only got two small stabs! But it took me 20mins to clear about a 2’x8’ patch. I may have neglected this task for too long. 😭

Anyway, I think it’s time for me to go outside and touch some… squints at bramble incased hillside … rip up some invasive blackberry vines by hand whilst trying not to get stabbed too horribly. 🌱

Pottery has really been helping me during these last few months. And look, I make a kelp forest with garibaldi!

I get that people are deeply annoyed by iNat right now, but despite its deep flaws, I hope people can see that a better iNat, both the site functionality and the community, is worth fighting for. Here's my personal perspective.

Meet our juvenile Pacific spiny lumpsuckers! They’re tiny, round, and living their best bumpy life in the “Home Sweet Barnacle” habitat. Hatched in October, they’ve just reached the perfect size to meet guests.

Look at these scruffy blueberry bushes producing a ton of berries despite having all their leaves plucked by birds and bunnies. I’m proud of their tenacity.

This hurts me more than twitter. I've recommended @inaturalist.bsky.social as a reservoir of animal references untainted by Gen AI. My current friend circle is from iNat. #InverteFest was born there. We don't know the details of this program but knowing they're enabling google's BS is painful.

Despite drinking a gallon of water yesterday I still managed to get a massive headache from the heat. Alas, my brain was too melty to find and say hi to everyone I wanted to at the con. But it was still a good time! Feeling much better today and staying inside.

Okay I officially called it. Can't do an event if I can't walk without significant pain. And I should allow my knee to heal. KikiDoodle.com/shop Id LOVE any online support today. If I manage to at least pay myself back for the table fee I'll feel a bit better.
