if you are food insecure for both the humans and pets in your household there is a tool called Pet Help Finder that can help locate pet food banks nearby and other free or reduced price assistance and supplies for pets.
no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, should have to give up their pet bc of this.

Last year I had an art commission to paint jacarandas and was so dismayed by the amount of AI imagery that’s in gardening pages.
@archive.org came in helpful for this task, looking up wonderfully scanned books on plants and gardening. 🥰🙌🏽
