I made this watercolor painting of a mountain quail as part of my artist residency on Volcan Mountain here in San Diego county. I was sitting by a waterfall and I heard flapping, looked over, saw this guy. First I've ever seen! Get this original here: www.thornwolf.com/shop/p/mount... #BSNM #Birdsky

Brown University has a widget that tracks the cost of the Iran war to American consumers (as contrasted to whatever the Pentagon is spending). Per-household cost now exceeds $600. iranwarcost.watson.brown.edu

absolutely fascinating watching America's idea of masculinity in its death spiral, horrifying of course, but I can't stop watching this parade of failures punching themselves in the jaw or paying to get cauliflower ears or botoxing their ballsacs and eventually turning into weird fragile giraffe men

I'm going to alienate some people now. Abortion is a critical part of gynecological care. Full stop. Hormonal birth control is used by many individuals simply to regulate difficult menstrual cycles. Legislators who don't understand the minutiae of reproductive biology should SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Fossil fuel industries get an estimated 7 trillion in subsidies. We are paying for our own mass death and destruction.

Every, and I do mean EVERY, conservative is a degenerate pedophile.

WATCH: ProPublica & @drilledmedia.bsky.social found that oil and gas companies have been funding climate research at prestigious US universities for 30+ years. This research fostered a misperception that climate change could be solved without dramatically curtailing fossil fuels: propub.li/3TTgAGp

My dreams are worth reaching for, I will give myself the space and time and energy it takes to achieve them. My value is intrinsic regardless of the outcomes of my endeavors. I am worthy of the kindness, hope, and understanding I extend to others.

Good reminder of how hard it is to access health insurance for people who are disabled by their conditions but in the waiting period for coverage for SSDI/Medicare. The mortality during the wait period for people with cancer (neoplasms) is nearly 40%. www.healthaffairs.org/doi/epdf/10....

Would assume everyone knows it by now, but just in case "First the traitors, then the invaders" is an explicit reference to The Turner Diaries, where a white supremacist revolution overruns "The System" and kills all their enemy during the evocatively named "Day of the Rope".

X owner Elon Musk indicates he would prioritise political violence (assassination of pro-migration politicians is the common sense meaning) over violence against "invaders" (refugees, asylum seekers, maybe ethnic minorities generally) while endorsing call for violence (killing) against both groups
