Which do you like more. The fun thing about Procreate Pocket is the layers so you can experiment with adding more things or return to without.

An abstract digital art piece with circles and ovals of various sizes inside circles inside circles. Kind of like gobstoppers cut in half is what someone said. Or like a slide under a microscope. Colours are green, pink, purple, blue, grey, yellow, orange, red. Added yellow triangle outlines in the blank spaces around the circles. Makes it look busier but also more like a tile inlay on a floor. I think. An abstract digital art piece with circles and ovals of various sizes inside circles inside circles.

Mark Carney and the premiers are offering ownership stakes to Indigenous communities to make mining and oil projects more attractive.

@janellelapointe.bsky.social explains that it’s just modern-day beads and trinkets to buy off resistance to destructive resource projects.

The Ford government has been in power for seven and a half years.

How is Ontario doing? The numbers tell the story.

2026 was the year that we took our power back from the billionaires & supremacists. The year that we rediscovered the practice of revolutionary & radical love. That we stopped trying to punish ourselves into being better people. 2026 was the year we embraced the end so we could find the beginning.

A magenta lizard holds and ice cream with two scoops. It is screaming AHHHHHHH! In a thought bubble it says “I scream for ice cream”.

Stayed home from an event tonight thinking I was coming down with something. Turns out I’d have been much better off getting out of the house. I was getting sick from allergies cause my neighbours are back to being really scented and I guess I’m back to shoving things into the cracks round my door.

Daily bunny no.3140 really wanted that cookie
A bunny is stuck in a cookie jar, with their feet sticking out. They are contentedly finishing the last of the cookies. An older bunny is on the outside of the jar, looking at them angrily. They are on a shelf in a kitchen pantry, with other foodstuffs all around

Collage of the images I’ve produced so far in the Post-it Note Prompt challenge. I’m running a little behind with a late start but since I committed to doing it on Procreate Pocket I’ve been getting them done. Will put the prompts in comment. I don’t have a stylus but that’s ok!
A collage of 7 images of digital art works. Top three are in colour. 1st an abstract, second head and neck of a purple guy, third a big head and face with big yellow mouth and nose wearing glasses across big eyes. Second row is two pieces. Little bug in the rain in black ink. Rabbit with horns. Third row two bigger images. Some kind of red and purple fish or eel head with sharp pointy teeth and translucent fins. Second line drawing of a creature lying on it back that looks like a bean with arms and legs and a face. Standing next to and looking down at it is a bird that is about double its size. (I’m think of what to have the bird say in a speech bubble, still.

Another abstract. Less is more. Just spirals and novels with a couple of colours with line art.

Carney’s 2025 budget promises to “right-size” the federal public service, but behind the numbers are real tens of thousands of Canadians facing job loss.

Abstract in a sketchpad made up of circles filled with triangles in two toned colours. Mostly in different shades of brown and pink or red or purple. Around the edge on the left there are just the lines of the triangles and circles without colour and on the far edge on the right are circles without triangles or colour.

Why is fascism right-wing?
4 frame comic. a guy with a red cap asks Stephie : stop saying that fascism is a right- wing thing. what about stalin or mao? checkmate, leftist. she replies : authoritarianism isn't a synonym of fascism. fascism is ultra-nationalist, whereas communism, with or without the authoritarianism, is against any form of nationalism. fascism is a conservative ideology obsessed with national purity that teams up with big businesses to maintain itself in power. that's why it's considered far-right. but why do you care so much? do you think fascism would suddenly become acceptable to left-wingers if it had a leftist spin to it? sounds like something that someone who finds fascism acceptable would think.

Daily bunny no.3133 is starting a garden
a bunny on a balcony faces another bunny on a different balcony opposite theirs. They are in neighboring apartment complexes. The two bunnies each hold one end of a rope, and bunny on the left passes a bucket with flowers down the rope to the bunny on the right.
