Meet the newest member of the Expanded Sunflower Universe, Clover. She’s a late kitten from last season, probably 6-7 months old. We don’t get super spicy vibes from her so we’re going to see if she can be socialized after her spay on Wednesday. She has a fluffy dark tortie sister still at large.

Heyy~ So Harper has another vet visit next month on the 10th in the afternoon. I’m realizing with how little I work I will definitely need help paying for his vet bill. Here’s the first xray that sparked the “He needs a new xray of his legs! We don’t know what leg is the problem!” gofund.me/de535f26

Something weird is living in my garden…

Happy birthday to this king of fabulosity

Hi! Tosca would like to ask you to vote for One Garden Against the World in the People’s Book Prize. This will help get a book about biodiversity and climate more attention and could (?!) lead to more gardens for wildlife. We’ve got to dream, right? Thank you!! peoplesbookprize.com/2024-cat/non...

My Grandmother’s Ginger Bread and Butter Pudding is #RecipeOfTheDay. Do replace the rum with orange juice if you prefer (this will make sense when you read the recipe!) www.nigella.com/recipes/my-g...

You may well need to click on this image to see it in full. But I hope you do as you should enjoying the huge old moon I painted at the top. This is painted on Italian watercolour paper. You can't using masking fluid, you can't rub out and you can layer too much or it'll disintegrate. I love it.

I hope this becomes one of those heartwarming British comedy films and annoys the Telegraph even more

Important FYI: if you’ve run out of prescribed meds, a pharmacist can give you them *without a prescription* in an emergency.

I wrote about my brother Charlie’s final 48 hours, and his increasingly desperate attempts to track down an emergency supply of medication from the NHS. It’s an upsetting read but one I’m proud of. He’d be delighted to have made the @financialtimes.com magazine front cover: on.ft.com/434zZqn

Just finished up the latest piece in my Sunbonnet Sue, Days of Rage embroidery series. I got so mad after seeing that post from the White House that I had to stab some fabric 1,000+ times. Hand stitching helps me work through my big feelings in a healthy way. 💙 #embroidery #fiberarts #textilearts

Scientists have reconstructed the insane weather of Tylos, a world so hot, and so close to its sun that the clouds are made of vaporised metal, and where it rains liquid sapphires and rubies. https://buff.ly/41a3GnB #ShareGoodNewsToo

No, the mail is not “the least of our worries.” It’s a fucking important worry. It is the only postal service that delivers to every address. They are only provider of complete mail services for overseas military bases and provide free overseas PO boxes. They help prepare passport apps. Ship meds…

I know there's dozens of things to contact reps about every single day, but today please contact them about keeping USPS independent. Privatizing USPS would be devastating for so many reasons, but personally it would destroy my small business if I can't have affordable/accessible service. 5calls.org

Why is that so many of the folks who like to position themselves as "free speech champions" are *also* so often those threatening to sue people who criticise or challenge them?

If you're working with phone banks and making calls on your own, Tribal Colleges/Universities could use your support. 2 of our oldest & only federally charted universities are in crisis due to EO 14210 and the hiring freezes, impacting thousands of Native students. collegefund.org/blog/support...

What do you think they're dancing to?

I'm glad to say that the emergency which meant I had to leave London yesterday seems to have improved, though we aren't out of the woods yet. As I'm still unable to get back in time to present my poster this afternoon however, I thought I'd provide a summary here of the key points 🧵

I'm brand new to Bluesky, still learning how it all works. I'm a fiber artist, usually working with upcycled fabric scraps. I've been stitching my feelings lately, and this is my latest embroidery project - Sunbonnet Sue, Days of Rage collection. It's inspired by the 1930's Sunbonnet Sue designs.
