Extinct monsters and creatures of other days : a popular account of some of the larger forms of ancient animal life / by Rev. H. N. Hutchinson. With illustrations by J. Smit, Alice B. Woodward, J. Green, Charles Knight, and others.
London : Chapman & Hall, 1910.
This piece was created directly from an experience that I had in Regina in May 2015. My friend and I were at a venue when a man started telling homophobic jokes. My friend asked him if he was homophobic and his response was, “Hunny, its 2015! We are past homophobia.” This response made us both feel unsafe as everyone around us agreed with him. Not only did this make us feel unsafe causing us to leave the venue, he implied something much more deeper. His implication was that because she didn’t fit the stereotype of a lesbian that it was somehow still okay to say. That only someone who fit into societies constructed stereotype could be offended by his comments. This disregard to the LGBTQ community was a reminder that our fight for equality is not over. This individual made it sound like the LGBTQ community needs to stop complaining about their rights and simply get over it. This is a direct response to heterosexual privilege and not having to worry or consider one’s safety of the spaces one’s body inhabits.
This card is number one in a a series of extinct animal cards. It is printed with black water based speedball ink from a hand carved linoleum block. It is of the Great Auk (Pinguinus impennis). It was a big flightless bird related to puffins and murres that was formerly native to the North Atlantic. It was last sited on July 3rd of 1844.

Alleys like this were a standard feature of most residential neighborhoods for several decades. At some point though -- probably in the 1950's or 60's -- planners and developers decided alleys were unnecessary, a waste of land. Instead, they laid out streets and built houses so each homeowner would have a paved driveway right smack in the front yard, leading to a big, ugly garage door that would become a prominent feature of the front facade of the house. It was another way of underscoring how central cars would be to a modern, urban way of life.
Thank goodness the alleys remain in our neighborhood, though, like shady lanes by which one can get a more intimate view of back yards, gardens and people outside doing things. This is one of my favorites.
In the early days of plantation farming, water was diverted from these coastal waterfalls toward the sugar cane fields on Kauai's west side. What remains is the skeleton of a once powerful waterfall. The remains leaves an eerie reminder of humanity's power over nature.

Perpignan (66): les sapeurs pompiers s'entrainent a gerer une fuite de gaz en procédant au pincement et extinction
From the American Museum of Natural History. Once thought as a mesonychid and a link to them and the whales, Andrewsarchus is now thought to be an artiodactyl, though it's still shares relation with the whales.
Extinct species. The wingless auk, Alca impennis, a bird remarkable for its excessive fatness, was very abundant two or three hundred years ago in the Faroe Islands, and on the whole Scandinavian seaboard. The early voyagers found either the same or a closely Allied species, in immense numbers, on all the coasts and islands of Newfoundland. The value of its flesh and its oil made of one of the most important resources of the inhabitants of those sterile regions, and it was naturally an object of keen pursuit. It is supposed to be now completely extinct, and few museums can show even its skeleton.

Extinction Rebellion à Lausanne, après les scientifiques ce sont les médecins et soignants qui les ont rejoints cette fois.
Courageux ou inutiles, ils ont au moins le mérite de ne pas laisser indifférents... comme une piqûre de rappel dont on a bien besoin.
