I enjoyed The Light Eaters by Zoe Schlanger, about developments in plant intelligence and behavior.
The book presents plants as both sophisticated and mysterious, revealing amazing adaptive qualities (for example, the boquila can mimic the plant closest to it by morphing its leaves, color, and other characteristics) as well as what scientists are very deftly trying not to call consciousness.
They also exist in a kind of harmony or even playfulness with their environment and other entities (plants, animals) -- this harmony presents itself in opposition to the theory that every living thing is in competition with each other for survival, a theory that feels very Western.
"They dont stick to their own species, or even to some clearly definable gender. After all, the orchid is reproducing through sex with a wasp. Some plants almost exclusively clone themselves, like aspens or dandelions, and still others clone themselves sometimes and have sex other times, like the strawberry. Many plants are bisexual, with male and female genitalia occurring together on the same flower (in plant anatomy these are called, intriguingly, perfect flowers). The ancient ginkgo tree can spontaneously switch the sex of a section of its body, producing a female branch on an otherwise male tree. Ginkgo are one of the oldest lineages of trees we live alongside, having persisted for hundreds of millions of years, stubbornly surviving since the time of the dinosaurs. Their sexual fluidity may make them remarkably resilient to whatever the eons have thrown at them. "

What a fun experiment! Ran a giveaway on stream tonight for a YCH pose that I decided to work on, and this piece was the result. Had so much fun drawing this adorable stallion.
Author Inkwell belongs to my friend EnigmaStudios on Discord! Thanks for being my guinea pig, Inkwell. =3
Gonna be offering this pose as a YCH in the near future, will announce when I'm opening comms here once I've made a price sheet, lol.

Just listened to the audiobook of "Clearing the Air" by Tim Smedley. Just WOW.
"Air pollution has become the world's greatest environmental health risk, and science is only beginning to reveal its wide-ranging effects. Globally, 19,000 people die each day from air pollution, killing more than HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria and car accidents combined."

"Comic Sans is now 30 years old as we speak, and it will continue to be around. You can ban it as much as you want. Its not going anywhere. And thats interesting, because most typefaces dont last. They really dont. As we speak, there are a thousand graphic-design students scratching out what may be a great new typeface that we will never, ever see. And so you have to ask, Well, why do some survive Its that old idea that if you live long enough, anything will become cool, be that vinyl records or Comic Sans."
