'You'll choke too' - an aerial embroidery landscape inspired by all the wildfires happening right now... I'm upset every time I smell smoke outside and somehow we have people starting them maliciously too! But we all breathe the same air so they'll choke too (1/2 - see thread for close-ups)

An embroidery hoop containing a sewn landscape from above. It shows a forest on the right, a line of fire and charred ground with smoke on the left. The smoke is felted wool.

I might've moonlighted As a model for a manga Am I a fluffy fairy Or a cracking cat I'll keep my secrets Tucked away in my gorgeous tail (But feel free to bribe me with treats For information I may or may not share)

A photo of my senior Ragdoll cat lying on a sofa, front legs tucked under, looking in the direction of a manga I'm holding in the foreground. The manga is "Fairy Cat" by Hisa Takano.Same photo from before but now my senior lady is looking at me/the camera whilst the manga cover in the foreground is no longer blurry, clearly showing the title illustration of a tiny fairy cat with the appearance of a miniature Ragdoll, sitting in a human hand, looking suspiciously like my cat.

Das können wir alle machen. Entsiegelt die Städte, die Höfe und die Schulen. In den Niederlanden ist seit 6 Jahren ein Wettbewerb zwischen den Städten entbrannt, Steine durch Grün zu ersetzen. Kinder vornweg und mit viel Spaß sind schon Millionen Steine entfernt worden. Macht mit! #klima #hitze

Hideous, reminds me of the genslop Hindu supremacists regularly pump out in India, of evil Muslims and roided out aryan Hindu gods and bros. GenAI is a poisonous fascist infoweapon anywhere you go.

Chinese viral AI videos are turning foreigners into villains, flooding Chinese social media. They depict foreigners as threats to China’s social, moral, and national order. Strong, confident Chinese people confront, violently beat, and humiliate them in defense of their country. See more below🧵

For 65 straight days, thousands of Albanians have taken to the streets demanding PM Edi Rama resign! From government corruption to selling off protected coastal land to the Kushner/Trump families, people have had enough. "Albania is not for sale!" Stand with the Flamingo Revolution! 🦩

A BREATH OF STRANGE (2016) Acrylic on Canvas Board - 8” x 10” While I’m standing nose-to-artwork painting little details, I try to avoid having a big clumsy palette in my way. I’ll grab one of the little canvas or masonite panels I use for comps and mix paints on that. 1/4

A blue alien woman wearing an ornate butterfly-wing headdress leans forward while resting weight on one knee in a crouch. One hand is steadying her on the ground while the other—comprised of 3 fingers and a thumb—is held back with fingers splayed. Her mouth parts in a breath. Her skin is a cool contrast to the muddy yellows and oranges of the light suffusing an alien sky.

Heute beim CSD in #HH zeigten viele Menschen Schilder wie "Unsere Angst bekommt ihr nicht" "Jetzt erst recht" "Ihr wollt unsere Angst und bekommt unseren Stolz" usw. Hamburg, wir sind stolz auf euch! Es war uns eine Ehre, euch zu unterstützen.

Ich halte es ganz grundsätzlich für ein Problem, wenn Parteipolitik Gerichten und Expert*innen vorgreift. Weit hat sich die jetzige CDU von der Union Adenauers, Kohls, Merkels entfernt. Völkerrecht und regelbasierte Ordnung de facto aufgegeben. Was unterscheidet sie dann v AfD?

On being autistic: Whatever you think, think it again But differently Whatever conclusion you come to Twist it around To make palatable to them Whatever your opinion, keep it Or wrap it in lies To not hurt others Whatever you're asked, remember They want their own truths Their own reality Not yours

Hello! I am still burnt out and still burning out! I am laughing at it because what else can you do? "Write fiction about it?" YOU CAN ALSO DO THAT and I did! And it's here! :) (You can listen to it via your earholes if you like!) strangehorizons.com/wordpress/fi...
