National Hug A Sheep Day

National Hug A Sheep Day is a unique celebration that brings people closer to these fluffy, lovable farm animals. It takes place on the last Saturday of every October, making it a cozy fall event for animal lovers.

This special day has grown into an international event, with farms opening their gates for people to come and hug a sheep, promoting kindness and compassion towards these gentle creatures​​​​​​.

Celebrated since the mid-1990s, the day aims to offer cuddles and appreciate the significant roles sheep play in our lives, from providing wool for our clothes to contributing to agriculture. It’s a chance to learn more about sheep, their intelligence, and their ability to remember faces for years.

Engaging activities such as farm visits, petting zoos, and knitting classes are excellent options. There’s something for everyone, whether it’s learning about their rectangular pupils, their natural self-medication habits, or simply enjoying the warmth of a sheep hug​​​​​​.

National Hug A Sheep Day not only celebrates the bond between humans and sheep but also highlights the importance of animal welfare and ethical treatment.

It’s a gentle reminder of these animals’ joy and comfort in our lives and the need to treat them with love and respect.

So, on the last Saturday of October, why not find a farm, learn to knit with wool, or simply share the spirit of the day on social media? It’s a wonderful opportunity to connect with nature, learn something new, and maybe even make a fluffy friend​​​​​​.

History of National Hug A Sheep Day

The day has a heartwarming origin, starting as a tribute to a beloved sheep named Punkin, the first sheep owned by the “Crazy Sheep Lady of Equinox Farms.”

Punkin’s friendship with her humans sparked a tradition to honor and spread love to all sheep, wild and domestic. Their story began in 1992 when Punkin was saved from a not-so-great fate at the Bluegrass Stockyards. Little did they know, this rescue would spark a wool-tastic friendship that lasted for 12 fluffy years​​​​.

As the years passed, Punkin and the Sheep Lady shared countless adventures. When Punkin left for the green pastures in the sky, the Sheep Lady felt a big gap in her heart.

She pondered, “How can I honor Punkin’s memory?” Then, like a lightbulb moment, it hit her: “Let’s get the whole world to hug sheep!” And just like that, National Hug A Sheep Day was born​​​​.

The idea was simple yet brilliant: one day a year dedicated to celebrating and hugging sheep. Farms opened their gates, inviting everyone to come and cuddle these fleece-covered friends. This was not just about hugs; it was a mission to spread love, joy, and a bit of sheepish fun across the globe​​​​.

With each passing year, the event grew. People from all walks of life joined in, from farmers to city folks. They all found a way to embrace the spirit of the day, even if it meant hugging a wool sweater when no sheep were around.

The day served as a reminder of the warm, cozy feelings sheep bring into our lives. Their contributions, like wool and cheese, come as a plus​​​​.

So, every last Saturday of October, remember to mark your calendars. It’s a day to celebrate the fuzzy, gentle creatures that have given us so much.

Whether you’re visiting a farm, knitting with wool, or just spreading the word, it’s all about showing some love to our wooly friends. And who knows? You might just make a sheep’s day a little brighter​​​​.

How to Celebrate National Hug A Sheep Day

Embark on a farm adventure by finding a local farm that’s open to visitors. This is your chance to get up close and personal with sheep and give them a gentle hug.

It’s an authentic way to experience the warmth of these wooly friends in their natural setting. Another exciting option is to host a wool crafting party.

Gather your friends for a cozy get-together, knitting or crocheting with sheep’s wool while exchanging interesting sheep facts. It’s both a creative and informative way to spend the day.

If you’re looking for a family-friendly activity, consider a visit to a petting zoo. Many of these places have sheep that you can pet and hug.

This provides a joyful experience for both kids and adults. Alternatively, you can spread the love for sheep online by posting adorable sheep photos or videos. Accompany them with a heartfelt message about National Hug A Sheep Day.

Those who wish to support sheep in another way should consider donating to a farm animal sanctuary or an organization dedicated to helping sheep.

This kind of support is invaluable and helps ensure the well-being of these gentle creatures. If you’re curious about sheep farming, take some time to learn more through documentaries or articles.

Finally, culinary adventurers should try making cheese from sheep’s milk as a delicious tribute to the diverse gifts that sheep offer us.

"Helio da Silva, a retired business executive from Brazil, single-handedly planted over 41,000 trees in his hometown of Sao Paulo over the last two decades.

Flying over the Brazilian metropolis of Sao Paulo, it’s tough to miss the 3.2-kilometers-long and 100-meter-wide green strip of trees wedged between two of the city’s busiest roads. It is known as Tiquatira Linear Park, and it is the work of a single man who worked tirelessly for over 20 years in order to transform a previously dilapidated area into an actual jungle within the urban jungle that is Sao Paulo. Originally from the town of Promissao, about 500km from Sao Paulo, Helio da Silva was a successful business executive for many years, but after retiring, he took it upon himself to transform the degraded banks of the Tiquatira River into a green oasis for his community. He started planting trees there in 2003 and hasn’t stopped since.

73-year-old da Silva recently told AFP that he wanted to leave a legacy to the city that adopted him decades ago. Within the first four years of his epic project, he single-handedly planted 5,000 trees in an area that had long been abandoned and known to be frequented by drug dealers and users. His impressive feat prompted the municipality of Sao Paulo to recognize his efforts and acknowledge the area as the first linear park in Sao Paulo. This only emboldened da Silva, who continued planting native trees.

By 2020, Helio had planted more than 25,047 trees over a 3.2-km-long area, achieving a survival rate of 88 percent. For every 12 trees, he planted a fruit-bearing species in the hopes of attracting birds and animals to his green oasis. His bet paid off, as according to the municipality, 45 types of birds have been identified in the park. Today, the Tiquatira Linear Park numbers over 41,000 individual trees, and Helio da Silva doesn’t plan on stopping planting until he reaches at least 50,000 of them.

“My motivation comes from the trees themselves because trees give us flowers and fruits, absorb rainwater, attract birds and provide us with wonderful shade and fresh air,” da Silva told Common Earth.

The retired executive estimates that he spent about $7,000 per year on his tree-planting efforts since 2022, but the way he sees it, it was a worthwhile investment for himself, his family and the whole of Sao Paulo. Plus, he saved a lot of money by planting the trees himself.

Once labeled as crazy for spending most of his time planting trees in an area most people avoided, Helio da Silva is now hailed as a local hero. He sometimes receives help from like-minded nature lovers, but he is still the driving force behind this amazing project. Every Sunday, he comes to Tiquatira Park to plant more trees.

Over the years, the city gym and playground equipment, tables, benches, toilets, and Tiquatira Linear Park eventually became one of Sao Paulo’s most popular areas."

Note: ONE SINGLE PERSON CAN MAKE A SUCH A DIFFERENCE

[sayruq]

Medical complicity in torture occurs in a number of ways. As explicated in Addameer’s 2020 comprehensive study, Cell 26, prior to the start of a detainee’s interrogation, Israeli physicians collaborate with Shin Bet interrogators to “certify” or approve that they are “fit” to undergo torture. Throughout the duration of interrogation, a physician provides a “green light” that torture can continue. But the enabling of torture extends beyond a superficial “health check.” In their examinations, healthcare professionals look for physical and psychological weaknesses to exploit in a person. These weaknesses are actively shared with interrogators to help them break a prisoner’s spiritIsraeli doctors also conceal injuries they observe during torture. Instead of fulfilling their ethical responsibilities to report abuse, physicians falsify or refrain from documenting the physical and psychological effects of torture on a detainee’s body and mind — depriving victims of using potential evidence against their torturers. Medical complicity in torture extends further beyond individual physicians to the entirety of the Israeli medical system. Palestinian detainees recount that interrogators are trained in methods of abuse that are designed to inflict maximum harm. This knowledge is not innate; rather, according to Cell 26 medical research is shared with Israeli occupation interrogators to arm them with specific techniques and programs of torture intended to cause extreme suffering to Palestinian detainees while leaving minimal physical evidence. Since October 7, investigations and testimonies from survivors of torture, advocates, human rights organizations, and even some Israeli whistleblowers have confirmed that the involvement of Israeli physicians in torture is still ongoing. On April 16, an appalling report by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency on the torture of Gazan detainees stated that when attempting to receive medical assistance to treat injuries caused by torture, Palestinian prisoners were instead beaten more by prison doctors.

Howl at the Moon Day

The wolf has been a powerful symbol throughout all of mythology, whether we reference Fenris Wolf who was set to devour the world during Ragnarok, or Romulus and Remus who were raised by wolves to create the foundation of the Roman Empire, the most powerful empire of all time. They have been the subject of powerfully moving art, the once popular and now embarrassing three-wolf moon shirt, and more song themes than one can shake a proverbial stick at.

Part time monstrous, part time noble, no other animal has been quite as controversial as the Wolf, but one thing remains constant throughout. Wolves are regularly shown as howling at the moon, and Howl at the Moon day is your opportunity to join them in their celebration of the wild.

History of Howl at the Moon Day

In many parts of the world Wolves are seen as pest animals, harassing livestock and endangering pets, this has led to severe over-hunting and recovery efforts can get costly. Wolves are wonderful and majestic animals, and are a vital part of the world’s ecology. Howl at the Moon Day was organized to help educate people on them, and to help organizations like Wolf Haven generate funds and get the word out on Wolf Conservation.

How to Celebrate Howl at the Moon Day

You can keep things literal in your Howl at the Moon Day celebrations, and merely take a step outside and give the celestial orb in the sky a great big howling hello. You can get groups of friends together and head out to the forests and build a bonfire under a dark autumn night, and how to the crisp and clear skies overhead and the moon that hangs there like a giant eye watching over the world at large.

It’s life – a new kind of life. Open your eyes, Dean. See what I see. Feel what I feel. And let’s go take a howl at that moon.

For the more altruistically minded, you can gather up plans to put together a fund-raising event for your local wolf conservatory.

On a more metaphorical note, Howling the Moon can represent breaking free of the traditional and standard, to stare into the dark night and away from the sane light of convention and civilization. Howl at the Moon night can be your opportunity to just cut free, do something wild and unexpected, and just let the wild in you out for an evening.

Ayo, someone by the name of Curly-B-Blog is redlining art of yours from 2020 (while pretending that it's actually Sai Scribble's work), and kind of being a dick about it. just thought you should know.

You know, originally I was just gonna brush it off, but then I went back to look at my old SU art from 2020 and did so much self reflection from then till now.

I think this was around the time I was just learning how to do perspective and tried to use the perspective tool on Procreate for the first time? :0 and I remember telling Sai “Sai I have this STUPID idea, I CANT believe it this stupid joke it’s so DUMBBBB, it’s living rent free in my BRAIN I SWEAR THIS IS GONNA BE SO STUPID DCIUWHEFIUWHIRFUIW4F” and being super excited to show her the finished product. People still think Sai created the Cursed Skin Gloves comic and I think it’s hilarious wjhwnuhwijwuiw

The comic was received very well and it made LOTS of people laugh and I’m still proud of this comic to this very day! :D and tbh if it wasn’t for my obsession for Sai’s Switcheroo AU I never would have found my passion in comic work! (love you you stinky hoe @saiscribbles 🩷)

HOWEVER…. I definitely still had lots to learn! I wasn’t very good at perspective at the time I’ll admit, but I was definitely having lots of fun learning :3

And throughout the past 4 years, ALOT has happened.

I graduated from college with TWO fancy pieces of expensive papers in Visual Development in Animation and Illustration learning from Will Kim and Jeff Soto, and as a I was working with the funny voice man Cougar MacDowall as a comic/story artist and reached in total around 7 million views for my fan series FNAF Security Malware Breached (it was even #21 on the trending list around the time of my birthday 🩷 what a lovely gift), had an insane opportunity to work with Mike Geno and with the voice cast from The Amazing Digital Circus for a fan song as a background and character asset artist, Vivienne Medrano liking and sharing my silly Overlord Husk AU comics, currently on my route to getting my certificate from Aaron Blaise’s Character design program and graduating from Marc Brunet Art School, and now I am completing my first year as professional colorist and art assistant for my storyboard and comic mentor Michelle Lam, aka Mewtripled! (Also I’ll be heading out to Lightbox Expo 2024 on October 26 with Michelle and the team so if y’all ever wanna meetup hahahajaj wink wink wink wink wink)

So you can say I learned ALOT and I enjoyed every minute of what I do :D I try to be humble about my accomplishments because blah blah being humble good yes yes but this time I wanna be selfish and say HELL YEAH I DID ALL THIS!!! AND IM SO EXTREMELY PROUD OF MYSELF FIUGEIURGERGGRS

Now here’s my most recent comic page that I posted like 2 days ago without the text.

That’s pretty freakin wild to me, I can’t believe I used to draw Steven Universe art like that back in 2020 LOL LIKE GUYS I DREW THIS!! WITH!!! MY HANDS!!! IS THAT NOT INSANE!!!???

Anyways moral of the story:

Learn from everyone and everything! Yes, even then mean ones too! If you can learn to work with anyone, I promise you’ll get to where you want to be faster. People can be a little mean on the internet, but that shouldn’t stop you from being where you want to be in the future. I’m so EXTREMELY grateful for all the opportunities and to all the kind professionals who were willing to give me a chance. Seriously, I’m so graciously thankful for everything, and I hope everyone here will support me and my silly little comics I will do now and in the future!

And one more thing:

Don’t be a jerk. Be to be nice to everyone :D nothing good comes out when you’re bad to everyone.
