This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

"Sarah", from a photo reference from B.C. Liston. Not certain I'm finished, but it's risking damage sitting around. #figurativeart #art #artist

Quick sketch of a Sumatran tiger from a reel posted by @pointdefiancezoo. Not perfect, but I need to learn to forgive the imperfect in the coming year in order to make more art. No resolutions, just a good idea. #art #wildlifeart #sketching #drawing

Astounding that the media is covering the effort to install Lara Trump as a US senator credulously, as if it’s not one of the most corrupt power moves we’ve seen in decades in US politics. Imagine how they would covered Clinton pressing the AR Gov to appoint Chelsea a Senator!?

Bringing my pinned Tweet along with me as I migrate here because this still matters & because we cannot normalize what Trump intends to do to DOJ. Justice should never be a political tool for presidents & their pals.

Sketch of a little Redpoll at my feeder, all puffed up from the cold. The coppery breast and head stood out again the drab grayish brown body feathers. It sat defensively on the feeder until more garrulous birds decided they wanted in.

At this point, I fully expect farmers to start watering their fields with Brawndo by spring planting. 🤦

Thanks very much to everyone who's followed me. Still finding my feet here but it feels nice. I'm a Scottish lefty gender queer/trans masc mental health writer/activist who lives with Borderline Personality Disorder. I want to show the realities of this and to offer hope.
