I'm sticking with the marine reptile painting theme for Fossil Friday. Here's an old acrylic painting of Liopleurodon and Metriorhynchus, called "Killing Breach".

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Ok... Time for my controversial leftist. Opinion...

The green party will never win the popular vote, they are forever gonna be the middle-class NIMBY party that opposes any infrastructure building project.

And jesus Christ they need to drop the poorly informed anti nuclear crap

We'll drive out the Reformers and restore what we own
With our blood and our steel we will take back our home
Down with Farage the wanna-be king
On the day of your death we will drink and we'll sing...

Sadly the time has come. The union flag has been too tainted by the far right to stay on my battle jacket.

Over the last week, British flags have been cable-tied to nearly every lamppost in my town.

So many British flags that it doesn’t look like Britain. It looks like 1930s Germany.

It makes me afraid. My anxiety is through the roof. I feel fighty when I go out now and look at everyone with suspicion.

I'm wondering how likely it is that furaffinity gets blocked in the UK.
It is gonna run afoul of the whole stupid online safety act thing but will they actually block it in this country?
