Every time I see a mammal subspecies being semi-aquatic, like deer and wolves who swim a lot, I get so hyped like yes this is how whales happened do it again

Hi, my stomach is paralyzed and my deductible rolled over in July!
I have gastroparesis and I am completely reliant on tube feeding and IV hydration to stay alive. I have hit my deductible as of 8/18/23, but not before having to pay for some of my enteral formula out of pocket.
One month of adult feeding tube formula after insurance is $674.80, and I am still paying off my first week of IV fluids, which I am paying $1,357 for.
I’m on a payment plan for the IV fluids but I need to pay for my formula they sent for August before they ship September’s formula and supplies.
Please reblog and boost if you’re unable to donate 💚 I am working full-time but I have to take a lot of time off for medical reasons, and I’m having an implanted port placed soon, which will require more time off.

Holy SHIT.
THE ONLY ONE ALLOWED TO SIT THERE SHOULD BE THE ARTIST AND THEN IT SHOULD GO BE IN A MUSEUM.
Hand made crafts should be worshipped for the art they are.
i respect this SOOOOO much more than any iron sword throne chair
This one involves way more stabbing
SHE BOUGHT A PEACOCK
Nobody gonna talk about how she collected roadkill for cOloR CoMpAriSoN
Stunning both on its own and as evidence that the difference between art (important) and craft (not important, or boringly utilitarian) is sexist, classist* bullshit.
25 years in the making? Extensive research including animal husbandry and handling of dead things? 14 threads per inch? If this was a painting, especially by a man, it would probably be more than an Interesting Thing on the Internet.
All that, AND it’s useful. At least technically. But, as @onceuponatmi said, it really should be in a museum! The fact that it’s *needlepoint*, at its size and level of detail, is extra amazing because it requires so much patience and meticulousness.
I hope the artist knows that she truly is an artist.
* it’s also racist but this example has nothing to do with that
Sincerely, this deserves to be kept in a museum. This is a tremendous amount of skill, time, effort, and passion, and it should be seen as the art form that it is. Damn
