Some Fell-verse Bullshit

and the post begins

because otherwise it gets kind of visually confusing to parse, which is annoying to some folks, including me

GRANTED not everybody uses the same theme or even the same update. you might have noticed my version of tumblr is earlier than yours (I don't like the new button setup)

These birds were pushed to EXTINCTION IN THE WILD!!! AND ///PEOPLE/// TONS OF HARD WORKING PEOPLE WHO GAVE A SHIT AND WORKED TO PRESEVE THEM AND THE HABITAT THEY NEED AND THE CULTURAL HISTORY THEY REPRESENT!! BROUGHT THEM BACK!!!

THERE ARE NOW 600 IN THE WORLD AND 1 IS IN OREEEGON!!! Which means that almost certainly, more will come!

Recently the first nest was built in the Northern California condor colony!!! The egg didnt hatch but its a start, it means they are finding the habitat they need to survive and mate and move back into these places!

Again and again and again humanity shows, even in times of the great destruction and chaos and limitations being wrought by the US government, that there's still so many people who care and so so much we can do to actually live with and build the earth around us up, instead of allowing the interests of a few to tear it all down. That if you give power and land and resources back to the people who have the greatest knowledge of how to take care of & connection with this land, the forests and rivers and animals will return.

We are and always will be so much more than the worst of us and every reminder of that is. A lot right now.

some quilts by Jonathan Shannon (1938–2016) photographed at the San Jose Museum of Quilts and Textiles

Canciones de Mi Padre, 1989

From My Garden of Earthly Delights, 1992

Amigos Muertos, 1994. Rejected from the American Quilter's Society show due to the inclusion of Shannon's red AIDS ribbon (left skeleton). Shannon had won Best in Show the year before. Shannon organized protest letters as a result and made some impact on the issue of censorship in quilting.

"The funniest possible outcome of the AI mandate era is about to be HR departments discovering that 'sincerely held religious belief' under Title VII has a much lower bar than they assumed, and Pope Leo handed every Catholic employee a written excuse," wrote Corey Quinn, a software-startup founder in San Francisco, on X.

Employers could wind up in court if they outright dismiss workers who request a faith-based exemption from using AI, said Ashley Herd, a former McKinsey counsel and head of North American HR who now advises managers and employers on workplace issues.
