There's context if you really want it, but I think the truth of this statement stands on it's own.

If you looked at the total and went "not needed," now's a good time to look again. Sammy--the other void in play--has tested badly, and may be in early stage heart failure. The trouble with checking for problems is that sometimes you find them.

Crystal Frasier loves bringing worlds to life, and she’s helping us make sure the workers at Wizards have the resources they need to do just that! Learn more about our party of unionizing adventurers and sign our petition! actionnetwork.org/forms/uwotcp...

Alright what's the over/under that they're gonna let me use this illustration as the example of various ways you can nature journal in my book? I don't see anything wrong with this, why wouldn't they let me use this?

Ooooooh

Come hang out with me and a pack of enormous maine coons!

Please help us share :) We're in the final hours, all pin, pendant, & sticker designs are unlocked - have you added a new bird to your collection yet? We've got just one item left to unlock and we're so close! Can you help us smash through our final goal? 🪶 tinyurl.com/v5sry3m8

I love Lightspeed and Nightmare Magazine: they have been some of my staunchest ongoing supporters over the years, they publish amazing fiction, and they are always a joy to work with. Check out their Kickstarter! www.kickstarter.com/projects/lig...

Behold! Yet another book available for preorder! This one has an aroace protagonist, many oddities, and a Very Good Goat. Also kind of my tribute to McKinley’s Spindle’s End, which you should read while you’re waiting.

Quarterly Estimated Tax Payment Eary Warning System says: tomorrow is quarterly estimated tax payment day!

🌟 Uff da… we did it!! 🌟 All 16 pin designs unlocked! Minnesota’s most dramatic lake vocalist, the loon, has joined the flock. Thanks for helping us help the birds and bringing this whole flock to life. We’re down to less than 4 days, if you've been waiting don't miss out! 👉 tinyurl.com/v5sry3m8

So far, I'm at 15/350. Seriously, anything helps.

@tkingfisher.com Just in case you need another wombat figure in your life/house www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-pr...

I’m not great at “promoting things.” I’d rather be out with the birds, covered in feathers, taking care of rehab cases, and sketching designs with a mug of tea. But we made something I’m really proud of, and I wanted to share it with you. We just added 19 new designs: tinyurl.com/v5sry3m8 🪶

Aplomado Falcons: They form duos specifically to commit speed crimes together. Think: Bonnie & Clyde but feathered. (Actual fact: they literally tag‑team prey at high velocity like tiny aerial criminals.) We're 97% of the way to unlocking this falcon pin! tinyurl.com/v5sry3m8 #sciart #art 🪶

pretty good progress so far this weekend. 13 pages done out of an estimated 80

The number of newsletters by people who are otherwise not terrible that stay on substack and help them pay Nazis is astonishing.

On this Labor Day in the U.S., please recall that we live in an extractive system in which we are a resource to be used and used up. The greatest tool of self defense we have is a union. If you can join a union, join. If you cannot, work towards worker solidarity in your field. Good luck to us all.

Shivam is one of my favorite people, and his wife is a joy and a delight. If you can help, please do.

Sure, your chicken footed hut is faster, but for smoothness of ride you can't beat snail.

Calling all osprey fans!🐟🦅 We’re 94% of the way to unlock our Osprey as the next pin choice! 🎉 This has been one of our most requested designs for years; if you want to wear this beautiful fish-stealing menace, just a bit more support and it'll officially join the flock! ➡️ tinyurl.com/v5sry3m8

@foxfeather.bsky.social Is the current Visionary Vultures only on Backerkit?

Yes, there's a whole new backpack available. Message if interested. Commissioners who've already paid me for a backpack? If you want to grab this instead, just drop me a line and we'll make the switch.

The kākāpo population number officially now starts with a 3!!!!

600 left to go on this. Folks, can I please get a signal boost?

Do you know how RARELY I am proud of the town I grew up in? Well, put another notch in the maraschino cherry.

Apparently it's been three months since I posted on Bluesky. Sorry, I'm tired from all the screaming at the sky.

If anyone else has a bit of Amazon credit lurking about, my cousin has posted a short classroom wishlist with just a few things left on it now. www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

If you can donate, please do. If you were previously not eligible to donate, the criteria have been SERIOUSLY revised: you are no longer deferred for spending time in England/the EU and the sexual risk screening has been replaced with a much more evidence based model.

Update: They have just reminded me to unsubscribe by sending out a surprise 30% off the whole site, no exclusions sale announcement. I think they've noticed how upset their (now former) community is. Keep letting them know.

Crane #6, a colt who survived being hit by a car and multiple surgeries, is now with us for PT and recovery. The resiliency of these young birds is astounding. Let's see if we can get you walking again!
