This green sea turtle is made to scale and anatomically correct with an artistic flair. Its insides are made from wire, foam, and plaster cloth, but everything visible is from single-use plastic bags, which were layered and sculpted over the base using mod podge. The sea grass is made from (unused) poop bags pulled through chicken wire.

Then I turned on Alex Jones to see what he was talking about, and he had Kyle Rittenhouse on and he was saying things that weren’t true and I was like nope, that’s it. He’s just going to keep selling boner pills on the back of the worst tragedies in our country in perpetuity unless someone puts a check on this.”

What’s your line in the sand?
Cruelty to your neighbour?
Lying to your neighbour?
Exploiting your neighbour?
Dehumanizing your neighbour?
Destroying your neighbour?
