Doodles for Hong Kong 🇭🇰

In response to the tragic Tai Po fire, I'm doing charity commissions. Anyone who puts over £25/250HKD into "Feeding Hong Kong" or Hong Kong SPCA can request a coloured doodle of any prehistoric animal 🙏

SNAP was restored, but many indigenous Americans still struggle with food insecurity
During the government shutdown, disruptions in food aid rippled across reservations. Both residents and tribal officials had to make tough choices, and are still feeling the financial impacts.

A lot of you know that I run this amazing nonprofit in rural New Hampshire - we operate a summer camp program for musicians of all ages, genders, races, and backgrounds; we give out over $300K/yr in scholarship; and we support a year-round professional string quartet that tours the world.

Reminder to check in with your media-obsessed parents periodically. There's a non-zero chance they remembered some show or movie they used to love and feel they must have their own copy. And they will make terrible and questionable choices to acquire it.

In the US, Catholic sisters return Wisconsin land to Ojibwe tribe in a historic first. The Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration have transferred a lakefront property to the Lac du Flambeau Band of Lake Superior Chippewa for the same $30,000 they paid in 1966.

For the first time, Catholic sisters return land to a Tribal nation
"This return represents more than the restoration of land — it is the restoration of balance, dignity, and our sacred connection to the places our ancestors once walked."

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

I'm on the hunt for artists/illustrators that specialise in landscapes and scenery, or who love drawing nature! 🌷🏞️🌳

I'd especially love to hear from BIPOC artists, but this is an open call! Self promo welcome, please comment with examples/portfolio links if possible ☺️

For me, we recently saw Monet's Agapanthus painting at MOMA in New York, and I just loved it. It's my choice for painting.

But if i could install an entire set of stained glass windows? The Tiffany Studios Autumn Landscape that you can see at The Met is 100% my choice.

Hey folks, my wife was laid off unexpectedly. We depend on her income with my own.

We are crunching numbers, but it's grim.

Not sure how we'll make it through November, let alone think about December.

You can help here, but we understand everyone is struggling too. <3

BREAKING: Donald Trump just directed the Pentagon to test nuclear weapons before meeting with China.

The US has not conducted a nuclear test since 1992 and we must not resume. This is a reckless decision that will only make us less safe and lead to a new nuclear arms race.

With SNAP/EBT cuts looming I highly recommend downloading this app! Basically restaurants and other food businesses will have available bags of random food they don’t wanna waste for ppl to buy for hella cheap! This has saved me sooooo many times when I only have $5 and need some food.
