Trickster encounters, good or bad, detach us from familiar, often fossilized, socially sanctioned norms. These norms provide a useful service, preserving what ‘is’. But they may also shackle us to a version of the world that no longer exists: a world that has changed while we were ‘busy making other plans.’
Yay ... Taegyu on Rising Voices! Killing it! And Yunmachi was pretty great too.

Lethal predator control and non-target impacts
"Our research shows predator baiting has the potential to harm more native species than previously realised. That means baiting programs must be conducted carefully according to local conditions and the wildlife present."

I won this lovely artwork of the cyborg version of my fursona in an art raffle hosted by @Twinkworshiper88, and I'm really happy about the final result!
A man has pleaded guilty to shooting and killing a dingo with a spear gun on K'gari (Fraser Island).
"A Queensland court has heard a dying dingo let out a "gut-wrenching, distressing noise" before bleeding to death from a spear gun wound on K'gari (Fraser Island) earlier this year."

1. Sun shone after torrential rain revealing trees & garden exploding with Spring growth.
2. Chatted with best friend from childhood, not seen since we were both skinny wild kids.
3. Talked about wild creatures, rewilding, books & more. We still love the same things.
Great weekend officiating at #Sandown International #Raceway in #Melbourne this weekend. Some fantastic National and State categories racing, and bonus got to pet Ajax the #Dingo again. #Motorsport
Today, eating only half a pizza has felt like winning some long-sought lifestyle/fitness holy grail. And I didn’t even have to visit Castle Anthrax and Face The Peril.
