'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)
Following the thread .. 1 like = 1 mundane fact about me. Until I can't think of any more lol

Last day to comment on this and make your voice heard, please defend Chaco canyon which is sacred to Pueblo, Navajo, and Hopi peoples and stands at risk of over 300,000 acres losing protections so it can be pillaged for gas and oil.
BLM is revoking protections on Chaco Canyon. If you don't like national parks giving sacred lands to oil+gas companies, you have until July 29th to submit public comments. act.foodandwaterwatch.org/page/96315/a...
Old traditional drawing I still very much like. #art #furry #furryart #traditionalart #furryartist #furrydrawing #markers
Are we comfortably numb with police violence? The brutal cop killing of Corey Ruiz in Madison, Wisc. sparked local protest but only muted outrage on the national level. Despite falling crime, cops gun down more Americans than ever Where's the outrage? My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/core...

Police killings like the death of Madison’s Corey Ruiz, caught on gruesome video, are rising, but public outrage is not.

"Sometimes it feels as though our struggle has been forgotten, yet our reality remains unchanged." Today on the giving circle, we highlight Nya & her family of 7. The little ones are so vulnerable to escalating hunger. Give/find their link here. chuffed.org/project/hope...
many who talk abt the woes of “community” don’t want community. they don’t want to be challenged, inconvenienced, check others or be checked. they want unmitigated access to others without “doing the work”. it unsettles me how queer folks use “community” the way the homes we fled from use “family”

I’ve seen an uptick of posts regarding how the furry community has a racism issue but not offering any solutions. If I may offer a suggestion, how about starting with acknowledging how BIPOC individuals who have made mistakes are treated in comparison to our white counterparts?
Saw someone wearing this type of helmet this week and thought it was so sick I had to draw it

Over 800 wildfires are burning across Canada right now. Canada also holds more than a quarter of the world's boreal forest and is warming at twice the global average rate. The smoke is the part getting attention. Here is everything else. 🧵
For 50+ years, "harm" under the Endangered Species Act meant two things: killing an animal, or destroying the place it lives. The bald eagle, the California condor, the American alligator - all recovered because both counted. As of last Friday, only one still does.

You dare visit that place of sin and then return like you did no wrong?
When you know how much destruction and death it has brought; when you see the destruction and death it has brought to your family as an Indigenous person, you wonder what there even is for others to be celebrating.
But it being only 250 rly does put into perspective just how much of America’s history was legal slavery. Like goddamn. 250 is not that long in the grand scheme of history but it did so much damage
Sooo gentle reminder for those of y'all who take medications that heat can have some REALLY dangerous effects. Here's a table from the CDC for you to check your meds: www.cdc.gov/heat-health/...
this isn't tin foil hat, this is what us BIPOC and especially queer BIPOC have been saying the whole time. i'm always stressing that everyone needs to actively be decolonizing their selves.
