A #tinyjoy to distract you from the overwhelming bad news of this moment, a portrait of Mary Wollstonecraft that deserves to be better known--by Irish painter John Keenan, predating the better known portraits. Don't you love how one sleeve is rolled up, as tho' MW were an #18thc Rosie the Riveter?

Oil painting: A woman in dark grey dress with black fichu, with book in one hand, that sleeve rolled up. Her hair is powdered.

I enjoyed writing this review of two new books on Orwell and his first wife Eileen O'Shaughnessy for the TLS! www.the-tls.com/lives/biogra...

Husbandom and wifedom

Literary history has recognized Eileen O’Shaughnessy only for marrying the unmarriable George Orwell. He was an emerging writer and aspiring socialist who had worked under his pen name since the publi...

How did I not know about the OWLS IN TOWELS account until now?????!!!!

Owls in Towels@owls-in-towels.bsky.social Β· 5mo ago

Burrowing Owl 'Marathon' in Arizona received laser treatment for a leg injury when one of the volunteers snapped this cute picture. Want to donate to Wild At Heart Raptors? wildatheartraptors.org/donate/?refe... Source: fb.com/526080430065... #owlsintowels πŸ’›πŸ¦‰

A Burrowing Owl wears a bright green towel or towel-adjacent fabric like a headscarf. His eyes are wide and yellow, with oval pupils reflecting a trio of ceiling lights. Feathers are brown and white, with a thatch of tan across the chest. His rictal bristles around his pale yellow beak are damp and pink, presumably from his latest meal, but due to lack of time / awareness / shame / napkins he has been unable to clean himself for the photoshoot.
