The special words for forms of lichen are almost as good as the special words for the textures of ants.

The Foliose, The Crustose and The fruticose.

Areolate, Filamentous, Placodioid, Byssoid and Calicioid

Who can forget Cladoniform and the Squamulose!

Republicans voted against IVF? Oh no!

And?

They LITERALLY said they're going to ban abortion for any and all reasons even if it kills the mother. They're going to ban birth control. They're going to ban IVF. They going to define marriage in accordance with their beliefs. They're going to outlaw no-fault divorce, even make divorce illegal in certain situations.

THEY LITERALLY NOMINATED A SERIAL RAPIST FOR PRESIDENT

If you're not clued in by now, I mean, goddamn. Just sit down and be quiet.

    FYI, someone just asked me, "Could you please put a CW on those US politics posts?"

    I said no sorry,, just mute me.

    I don't understand CWing political posts. And that doesn't mean you need to @ me explaining why. I know THEIR reasons, I just disagree with them and won't do it.

    I respect CWs for other things, but not politics. Politics is news and people need to be aware of what's happening. It's not gory or violent, it's politics.

    Edit: physical stickers are sold out, digital stickers and wallpapers are still available.

    The nuthatch stickers are finally here! They are 3.91” x 2.31” glossy UV protected waterproof vinyl stickers and you can get them over on my ko-fi shop! I also put up a digital version of the sticker as a transparent PNG for use as an emoji or messaging sticker or desktop icon or whatever else you can think of! And if that all isn’t enough I have also listed the full image as a 16x9 phone wallpaper for download as well!

    Please let me know if you plan to buy more than say 4 stickers as that may change the shipping a bit especially if you are not in the US.

    I am very happy with how these turned out so please let me know if there are any other pictures of mine that you’d like to see as stickers!
