trying to make a small environment of plants and flowers specifically to help wildlife and make spaces for bugs and animals to grow and live really puts things into perspective how much “gardening” advice is how to kill as many animals around your plants and house as quickly as possible. especially bugs. but you’re not gonna get the “pretty & nice” animals in your environment if you don’t make space and love for the “annoying & bad” ones.

i look up a new bug i’ve noticed on the porch out of curiosity and excitement and the entire page of information about them online is all links of pest controls and advice to get them to leave and how to kill them. but the thing is i don’t actually care if the clover mites want to eat some of my little leaves. or the house centipedes want to hide in the dirt. or the carpenter bee wants to tunnel here. that’s actually why i planted the leaves in the first place. they’re all for you! and me too!

this is also taking great assumptions that i could be fast enough to catch a bird. but i think i could. same logic my dog has.

i was raised by jocks and he was raised by hipsters. his knowledge of music is an enigma to me.

smuckers v trader joe’s uncrustable lawsuit my roman empire. normally i couldn’t care less what two greedy food empires attack each other over BUT as the evil sandwich monopoly claims intellectual theft or whatever (note: smuckers did not create the uncrustable, this invention was sold to them by the og creators) what truly gets me is that the lawsuit declares that trader joe’s turn over their complete crustless sandwich inventory to be destroyed (and their profits but idgaf about that).

the corporate need to not only halt the sales of the sandwiches, but actually destroy goods, and fucking food for that matter, over something as trivial as “copyright dilution” makes my stomach turn. obviously not the first nor the last example of this kind of thing and not even the most egregious, (i mean, there’s only so much nutrition that goes into a freezer pbj) but it’s just inconceivable to me. (plus my personal stake in it which is that the trader joe’s sandwiches are objectively tastier and i like them better.)

anyway, all this to say, i hope trader joe’s rips smuckers dick off. but not for profit. need i also disclose that trader joe’s is in turn also greedy union-busters engaging in coercion and retaliatory firings.

with news like this, i often think about when i worked in a toy store. near the end of my time there, mattel ordered us (on the dl, technicallyyy i did not work inventory so technicallyyy i wasn’t supposed to even hear about this) to destroy about 70-100 overstock barbies we had because they were rolling out a new model and those kens didn’t particularly sell well. and when i said destroy, i meant that quite literally. our crew was told to actually rip off the heads/limbs and cut up the barbies before throwing them away. because lord knows mattel saw the potential “brand dilution” of having people dig them out of the trash and resell them, or god forbid anyone donate them to kids who can’t afford a lot of toys or even give them out for free to customers or staff because then customers might come to expect free shit.

and 70 barbies, compared to what the toy empire mattel makes and sells every day? it’s nothing. chump change, no bigger than a dot on a page. to corporate, it’s not even worth thinking about.

but i think about them. i think about 70 kids who could have had barbies. that are now cut up plastic in the dumpsters.

The passenger pigeon was once the most abundant bird in north america. the band tailed pigeon is its closest living relative. attempts have been made to instill band tailed with passenger dna, in an endeavor to create a hybrid bird to fulfill its ecological niche. this comic is only somewhat about that resurrection.

Strange Bird - now in foldable zine format. I sell this for 2-3 dollars at cons, but feel free to print your own for free :) this version includes some (cited) facts about brood parasitism, as well as slightly revised art.

if you like this comic, consider tossing a few dollars to the american bird conservancy, your own local favorite bird charity, or to me on kofi!
