Stealing someone else’s content for likes isn’t justified even by leaving the author’s name on it. All you’re doing is naming the person you’ve stolen from. If you want to share someone’s work, hit the share button on the author’s original post. Posting it on your own account is being an asshole.

#RecipeOfTheDay is my Homemade Instant Pancake Mix! You combine your dried ingredients (see recipe), keep in a lidded container, then remove one cup and whisk with a cup of milk, an egg, and a tablespoon of melted butter any time you want to make a batch of pancakes 🥞 www.nigella.com/recipes/home...
Home Made Instant Pancake Mix
I find this a real life-saver. I make a container full of this and then I just have to whisk in egg, milk and melted butter whenever I need a breakfast's worth of pancakes. Serve with the syrup of you...

Sesame (Street) Workshop has a heap of resources for grown ups and kids experiencing traumatic or difficult events - displacement, grief, disasters, violence, foster care, divorce, and parents in jail/or struggling with addictions. They've got nice printables you can use with kids or (yourself).
What's a resource that you can get for free that you think more people should know about?

To reiterate: Pixar's Inside Out 2 is the highest grossing animated film of all time.
Pixar also pushed artists into 7-days-a-week crunch, and right when they were getting to the finish line, laid them off.
These overworked artists lost their bonus, healthcare, and income in SF.

Another embroidery animation! This was the second one I ever did. During the design phase I started with a bigger cat and quickly scaled that down so that sewing would be faster.

It feels like it's hard to find traditional artists on here, so could we do an art share with artists who work primarily in #TraditionalArt?
I'll start. I work mostly in watercolor and ink and have recently branched out into charcoal and pencil.
