Please do not send doomer asks. What I’m good at is providing resources and information, so I’m happy to answer asks about what can be done about a particular issue, but “we’re all gonna die” is not actionable.

Did you know that this year, 2026, was the first year a wheelchair user attended the Met gala? That it took Seventy Years for this to happen?
Well! Now you do :) Let me introduce Aariana Rose Philip, the Black transgender model and musician who did it.

Aariana has quadriplegic cerebral palsy, which forces her to use a wheelchair full-time. She has been on the cover of the British Vogue, and frequently models on the New York runway of Collina Strada. Aariana additionally was one of the models for the Met's costume display.
When she was on the cover of Vogue, she thought she had made it. But then she got the call that she was going to the Met.
Check out her thoughts on going to the Met here.
And check out her model page here, and her Instagram here!
yknow how the greener parts of apple skin are tan lines from where leaves and branches obscure the sun? I’m surprised I’ve never seen anyone utilize that for printmaking

Just wanted to let you know that I appreciate all the good news you put out, and so do all the people I link it to who AREN'T on Tumblr - a number discord servers as well as personal friends directly :)
thank you! this is literally why I keep doing it :)
Yellow flowers: Rosinweed, sow thistle, toadflax (spot the bumblebee!), and three different species (I think) of black-eyed susan - last one’s cultivated, the rest were found in the forest throughout July, 2025.
Toadflax was featured in October’s scavenger hunt, black-eyed susans featured in August. Lmk if you can help ID those Rudbeckia!
Okay no but like, I am still SO ENAMORED by this transition y’all, ‘cause when Dorothy opens the door of the house onto the colors of Oz, the inside of the house is still sepia toned. And they did that by literally making the interior and the costume and everything SEPIA TONED. You had a double for Judy Garland in a specifically-created sepia-toned dress, in a sepia-toned set, opening the door, backing out of frame, and then the Dorothy that steps back into frame is Judy Garland in her full color costume and makeup, stepping out into the color set.
It’s just
Y’all it’s such a GREAT EFFECT, and this was before computer effects and green screen, it was all practical and yeah it feels like nothing now, but at the time, man, not only was technicolor new, but I’m pretty sure no other movie had done a transition out of b/w or sepia into color, and even knowing it was a technicolor film, that must have just been fucking wild to see! It still is wild to see!! It’s so good.
The technique of switching between double and main actor without an edit is called a Texas Switch and it's still used today, it's very neat to have something so simple yet tricky persist pretty much just because it genuinely looks better to do it with timing than with editing.

In March of 2024, I started curating good news stories every week on topics like human rights, renewable energy, habitat and species conservation, and medical advancements. Every month, I doodle something from each week's news for my Patreon supporters; every third month's Doodles are available for all patrons including those on free trial; and whenever I can I add 5 bonus news stories for all patrons and viewable by the public a week later.
One-time donations can be made by tipping $kaybarr1735, or buying me a snack or decoration :3 Tips not earmarked for wishlist items go toward unavoidable expenses like medication and cat supplies.
March 2025 Dandelion Doodles are accidentally public (because I misremembered but stood by what I’d promised), so go preview what my doodles are like!

july is disability pride month. it is also summer in the northern hemisphere, and this summer we have seen record breaking hot temperatures across the globe. it might be apt to remember that disabled people are a population vulnerable to extreme weather, and significantly more at risk of death or health issues during a heatwave. "the global mortality rate of people with disabilities in natural disasters is up to four times higher than people without disabilities." (source). disability may increase the relative risk of a heatwave more than old age, socioeconomic status, and being outdoors (source). even in the places most affected by the rising heat, disabled people are barely included in action plans for public safety, if at all (source). global warming is a an issue that affects a wide range of people, but let's not forget it is also a disability rights issue
There is a great deal of truth there. Sometimes special moments happen purely by accident. But most of them happen because you make a plan and create the conditions to let them happen.
