According to this official document, I got my first tooth at six months.... but I never got a haircut, I never brushed my teeth, and I never celebrated Christmas.

Now you know why I have long luxurious hair, and no teeth remaining.

 

(The blue thing is a heating pad. I'm a real expert at taking pictures. )

'Rather than trying to “fix” falling #birthrates, #policymakers should prepare for an #older #population – from rethinking how #oldage support is funded, to enabling people to remain in #work for longer. “Simply telling people to have more #babies is unlikely to work,” said CPC-CG member Dr Bernice Kuang' (Department of #SocialStatistics and #Demography at the University of #Southampton), who spoke with #TheGuardian last week about the latest #ONS #PopulationProjections.

Just spent some time checking out this artist's website, and there are a lot more like this. Really impressive that they can communicate this thing in this way, which I don't think I will do justice with words. but something like primal and primate instinct and security. Maybe something about our social nature and survival. I'm taking those orbs to be breastish. Really love the weird little alien face, little kids are so cute but their weird little alien minds are strange to watch working, and I guess probably all of us are like that, we're better at lying about it. I don't know if I'm making sense and I guess it doesn't matter 🤣
