As I understand it, the Order of Operations is as follows:

1. Focus on the Tax Bill. That’s happening this week. Shoot it down.

2. Immediately afterward, start promoting Doug Jones in Alabama and reminding everyone of Roy Moore’s problems. That election is on December 12.

3. In the meantime, Net Neutrality. The FCC votes on December 14th. Protest, boost, research, do whatever you can.

I know #MeToo is important, I know Old Man Donald is still being a jerk, I know North Korea has a nuke, none of these are going to be dealt with before Christmas. There are three fronts to this fight: taxes, Alabama, FCC. These are the focal points. If we can win one of those, it’s going to have ramifications for the future. If we can win two, we’re in a pretty good place. We win all three, 2017 was a Good Year.

Taxes.

Doug Jones.

FCC.

Focus.

And then remind everyone to renew their healthcare. That deadline is December 15th.

Yes that too

Now, not everybody knows this, but occasionally a hen chicken will develop benign tumors on her ovaries. These can make the poor girl start developing secondary male sex characteristics, like a bigger comb and wattle, tail feathers, spurs, and crowing, all while she still lays eggs.

Now, you also might not know that broody hens will try to hatch anything vaguely egg-like, from rocks and golf balls, to another animal’s eggs.

Thirdly, snakes REALLY like barns for being warm, full of delicious rats, and easy to hide in.

So picture if you will, Year of Our Lord 1350, and some poor peasant in the middle of Hell, Europe has just woken up to all his friends being dead of the plague and a rooster very excitedly showing off their weird noodle children.

Take into account poor Wiglaf here is superstitious, mostly uneducated, and full of malnutrition and anxiety, and you can see how things like cockatrices, basilisks, and people burning various creatures at the stake for being fucking horrifying occurred.

Everything was fucking horrifying, and sometimes it got out of hand.

this is blatant Basilisk erasure I am a wildlife expert and have myself met at LEAST 8 basilisks in my time and they were all very polite

I am … this … this … my day has been made. Thank you, OP, this is delightful.

I had the opportunity to draw them for my school today.
The only constraint was to draw them in my own style 🙂

GoFundMe for the 1st Navajo-English Children’s Educational Show!

My local news covered this and I have yet to see it get any sort of larger attention, but this is exactly what the media landscape for kids needs.

A show for children that features Navajo characters and teaches the language at the same time, it was developed by two Navajo women, Dr. Shawna Begay and Charmaine Jackson, and was originated “by a team of Navajo filmmakers, writers, producers and artists”.

They’re seeking funding to make more episodes and develop new characters, and we can help them out!

Here is their GoFundMe
