Over the last several weeks we have spiked large swaths of trees in the so-called “Capitol State Forest” in rural so-called “Thurston County, Washington” (ancestral Nisqually, Squaxin, and Chehalis land), leading up to the November 5th day of action in solidarity with the Wet’suwet’en struggle against Coastal Gas Link and the Canadian government’s colonial intrusion into their territory.
This seasonal transition has been sharp and hard on the land. Our forests here experienced an unusually sudden shift from severe heatwaves and drought that lasted late into the fall, to floods and freezes with minimal autumnal gentle rains to steward the earth into the rainy season. These forests which have fed so many for time immemorial show the consequences. As climate change-fueled “natural” disasters become more and more devastating every year, the industrial rate of destruction of everything that sustains the land and the people on it only escalates. Politicians speak out of one side of their mouths about “truth and reconciliation” or “climate action,” while with the other side of their mouths they send the police to clear the way for mining and logging companies. Swaths of land dripping in moss and bubbling with streams, teeming with mushrooms and other life will soon be left as dry mangled fields, mirrors of the hellscapes being created in unceded Wet’suwet’en territory. Lifeless, and robbed of all sustenance and culture, useless to anyone but the corporations and people who sold off a forest they had no connection to.
All of these industries are on the side of Coastal Gas Link and they are all our enemies. We feel the rage, creativity, and determination of the people of Wet’suwet’en and Wedzin Kwa, and must all act against every aspect of colonial industry which threatens the sovereignty and lifeblood of lands and waters. We hope this message serves as a warning to deter all upcoming timber sales in the Capitol Forest. If the trees are cut, we hope for maximum damage to the chainsaws and mills.
Up in Wet’suwet’en territory, CGL just blew up Lamprey Creek, an active salmon and eel spawning ground, and home to two elders’ cabins on the Wedzin Kwah river. These waters and forests are lifeblood being stolen and desecrated. Drilling under the crystal clear Wedzin Kwah is active, while salmon actively spawn nearby. Wet’suwet’en protectors have specifically called on anarchists to step up. This comes with huge risk for the Wet’suwet’en. Let that call be heard and felt by our friends and our enemies.
DECOLONIZE THE PLANET
GO LOG IN HELL
WORLDWIDE SOLIDARITY WITH WET’SUWET’EN
CGL FUCK OFF
ALSO STOP COP CITY – DEFEND THE ATLANTA FOREST
SHUTDOWNEVERYTHING
certain human cultures have been waging war against the earth for millennia. i choose to fight on the side of wolves, salamanders, western red cedar, bats, elk, salmon, and all things wild. i fight in the name of all those who were casualties of that war. every timber sale de-flagged, every bulldozer gas tank filled with cement mix, every fur farm liberated is in your honor.
Ok gotta be honest I started the line art for this MONTHS ago and got inspired to color it bc of the BEEBS drawing I did. Also if I do more shrike fanart don’t expect him to look like this bc the way I draw him is different now!!!
This is how I draw him usually (don’t mind the goober on the left) Anywho enjoy the shrike angst :3
i will never sit silently while old-growth forests are clear-cut, while rivers are poisoned with mine tailings, while salmon runs are blocked by dams, while wildlife is killed and maimed and displaced by bulldozers and chainsaws. if that makes me a fucking terrorist, so be it.
let me confuse the shit out of my audiences yet again ahAgah FUCK YOU YOURE GETTING BOTH OF MY ROTS WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT- *violently puts it in your esophagus*
First post guys!!!! yea I do art I just don’t always have the nerve to post!!! Anyways screenshot redraw of Beebs my wife in my own style for my discord pfp :3
Scratch is such a fun and expressive character to draw that I wanted to attempt to do a format of character study I've been thinking about doing. It is where I would draw and render a full-body of the character and have them surround by various emotions they can express. The Polaroid was inspired by the Polaroid you can see at the beginning of the first Monkey Wrench episode.
