Another thing I made this year. Pigeon history!
A comic called "What City Pigeons Talk About". Two city pigeons are standing on the sidewalk. One says "Hey, do you ever think about the past?" The other says "The past?" A closeup of the first pigeon. They say "Yeah - do you ever think about where we came from? Sometimes I forget that city pigeons are domestic animals." A hand reaches out to three wild pigeons. The narrator pigeon says "Humans domesticated us many millennia ago in the Middle East. We provided meat, feces used for fertilizer, and much more." There are two very fancy pigeon breeds. "Over time, people split us into hundreds of pure breeds - some quite elaborate! Kings and queens proudly kept pigeons, and colonists spread us worldwide." A closeup again of the first pigeon, who says, "But we fell out of fashion. Now we peck at the dusty concrete, our past glory all but forgotten. Do you ever think about that?"

Yup. It’s anti-Black racism/reactionary bigotry. Just rinse and repeat with a different term every couple of years…
A graphic featuring three heads arranged in a line vertically and each paired with a speech bubble. A thought bubble inside each head contains the n-word (racial slur). Each head is labeled with a year and its corresponding speech bubble contains a word. Starting from the top, those labels are 2020 and “CRT”; 2022 and “woke”; 2024 and “DEI.”
