By now, we don’t need to tell you about the alarming rise of book bans and challenges sweeping the country, specifically targeting books about folks in the margins. (It’s probably not a coincidence that it’s happening right alongside the rise of fascism, you know?)

Taking a quick break to do my actual job but plz do keep bird requests coming, I'm having a lot of fun with this
10)
Magellanic Woodpecker x Henry & Glenn Forever and Ever
That? That's a bird that listens to Black Flag and Misfits and then reads the comic about them being in a ridiculous relationship
9)
Raven x Rot & Roll: Natural Burial and the Funeral-Industrial Complex
Quoth the raven, "green burial is a sustainable alternative to cremation or embalming that doesn't leech chemicals into the earth"
8)
Eastern Phoebe x Nature Names
Queer person looking for a good new nature name? Birds are a GREAT place to start, or this zine from Microcosm's own Ivy Zeller
7)
Chimney Swift x Household Hiding Places & How to Make Them
They love a good hiding place.
(I love chimney swifts. They're cool, always flying, and also populations are declining rapidly because we've moved away from chimneys.)
6)
Lovebirds x Cards for Couples
Because even the happiest lovebirds can up their communication skills
5)
Rufous Hummingbird x You Look Very Nice Today
Because he DOES look very nice today!!!
#4)
Cedar Waxwing x Punk Women
LOOK at that crest! The eye black! She's ready to put on a SHOW.
Thank you for enabling me!
Bougainville Moustached Kingfisher x Burning Rage of a Dying Planet
Partially chosen because of the environmentalism, but also because look at that gorgeous orange head with the blue eye bars that matches the cover
CUTE
