I found out today that one of the forces pushing Trump the hardest for this Greenland shit is… the owner of Estée Lauder.

Sharing this here because they own SO MANY makeup brands and I bet a lot of you might like to join me in not repurchasing anything from this makeup brand family!
How a billionaire with interests in Greenland encouraged Trump to acquire the territory
US president’s friend Ronald Lauder – who first proposed Arctic expansion – is now making deals in the island

This is a truth so simple that if it is not self-evident to you, you desperately need to reconnect with your humanity.
Every techie and cyberpunk aficionado has failed if they've excluded furries. It's testament to the lack of imagination these "visionaries" truly have, creating a virtual world where your boring toon self goes to meetings instead of being a 50 foot big-tiddie dragon-woman who steps on cars.

Looking for herbs/spice ideas for scrambled eggs and do a search to that effect.

The article I opened up listed "fresh herbs" as its third recommendation. Oh thank you.

Sketched some quick sea ott snoots while snagging some coffee this morning!

The two faces in the middle of the page are a gentle reminder to myself that my art looks different when I use refs 😌

Aging does not make women less beautiful and we shouldn't fall into that trap in any genre. Having expression lines, gray hair, changed bodies, should not be things thst someone is still attractive "in spite of" but BECAUSE of. Let's normalize beauty at any and every age.

The point here is not to praise white folks, but to valorize solidarity. We need to band together to get this shit outtt.
ICE and MAGA really did bet the farm on all of Minneapolis’s white people going “oh yes, please take away our disgusting, evil non-white-foreigner neighbors, oh thank you so much.”

it’s beautiful that they’ve been proven incredibly wrong about that - may the rest of the country do the same.
