This image is a stylized illustration with a vintage or retro art style, primarily in red and beige tones. It features a woman with long, flowing hair holding a large pair of scissors. The scissors are positioned as if cutting a cherry stem, with two cherries hanging from it—symbolizing male reproductive anatomy in a metaphorical way.

The text around the illustration reads:

"VASECTOMIES PREVENT ABORTIONS"

Dug up some bones in the garden and I’ve tried to recreate what sort of animal they might have been from. Looks like some sort of snake most probably.

@rohanconnolly65.bsky.social on footyology you were asking why we don't have indigenous names for all teams. I was chatting to an Arrernte speaker recently who said it can be quite difficult as white concepts of places are very different to indigenous ones. For example we talk about Alice Springs being Mparntwe, but that really refers to one spot on the river. Moreover men, women and different groups will use different names for different purposes, and it can be difficult politically.
