So it's been like 7 months since I drew the Oh Lawd He Treading cat, and since day one I've seen so many copies and outright thefts of it, and they're still going. I'm just like "I did that" 😹 I thought I needed to do a ginger version, so with a charged iPad, I drew one out this morning. #cat #art

That was when they suspended the Constitution. They said it would be temporary. There wasn't even any rioting in the streets. People stayed home at night, watching television, looking for some direction. There wasn't even an enemy you could put your finger on. Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid's Tale

You tell us to “get over this”. Would you be able to, if this were your people?

Once upon a time, a country was founded by slaughtering Native Americans. Then it prospered by enslaving Black human beings. Then it pretended to have overcome these absolute sins. Then it decided to elect a birther racist who has now turned the country over to an apartheid Nazi.

For no particular reason, here’s a barn owl. I saw it on Christmas the year before last. It’s the only one I’ve ever seen. To see it at all was lucky. To have it sitting in the winter sun uncovered by branches was a damn miracle. Is that one beautiful owl or what?

This minimalist image is a photo I took of the Gulf of Mexico in 2012. I’ve licensed it for various uses, including a book cover and a wall covering. I will always call it the #GulfofMexico

You are not prepared for the intensity of posting about Byrds, Flying Burrito Brothers and associated solo acts I am about to subject you to in prep for a @junkfilterpod.bsky.social appearance. But in the end perhaps you may thank me.
