For the folks asking to see the finished project, here’s the Lego Orchid that Carlos, Bella and I put together yesterday. Can’t help but think what a feat of engineering and marvel at the minds that create these things, for no particular reason other than for fun and giving people #tinylittlejoys 🩷

My #tinylittlejoy today was walking into my lounge room and seeing my Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem Loungefly backpack! 🤩
Every time I see it, it makes me smile or even laugh out loud. I mean come on. Look at it! How could anyone see this and not feel joy? 💙
I hope you find a #tlj today!

My tiny little joy for today? It snowed overnight and I woke up to this scene. I can’t help but feel joy at the sight of such beauty in my own backyard! ❄️☃️❄️
Feel free to share your #tlj in the comments so we can extinguish fear and imprint some joy together! 💙

Today, I stumbled across a post about a study done in 2015 in which researchers, while they knew that fear extinguished our capacity to hope and to feel joy, that the reverse was also true: that joy extinguishes fear! 1/3

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references.

I see authors sheepishly announcing books, or apologizing for good news.
Friends: we’re enduring an onslaught of censorship and bigotry. I am PROUD that you wrote anything. Please yell about what you're doing. Art is a fuel to keeps many of us going.

i feel like you should be allowed to talk about & promote your book for at least as long as it took you to write it
