BITE BACK: bink's Coup-coup bird, & other posters

We like to exercise our self-evident right to The Pursuit of Happiness, and that includes having FUN with protest art!
Taking into account protestors in London (Trafalgar Square, 3–5 pm!) and other places around the world, surely there’ll lots of fun signs this Saturday (4/5).

"BITE BACK"

While I was painting a cat on my poster board [[yesterday's post], bink (who had a stinkin' head cold) was painting her trademark terrier. . .
going after a "coup-coup" bird:

I like that we are seeing the re-clamation of the American flag--
I first noticed it on the cover of Beyoné's album, Cowboy Carter.
Some Black people shun the flag, but others say,
"Hey, we BUILT this country!"

We do not claim it is perfect, nor spotless--of course not!––and neither are we,
but it is OUR dirty laundry, and we'll fly it!

I incorporated it on the back of my NO KINGS cat poster.
"Should I clean it up?" I asked bink.

"No, it looks like a Jasper Johns flag," she said.

I know Ignore Alien Orders from Joe Strummer of the Clash, but it's from 1960s San Francisco: A couple stoned musicians supposedly came up with it when discussing,
What to do if aliens take over Earth?

Sister, who does a lot of sewing, was stitching an applique sign!
In process: a pink slip for Trump: "You're Fired!"

I texted her that we are carrying on in the style of our father, who was serious (he taught political science) and silly.

She sent back a photo of him carrying a sign for himself running for president on the Oregano Eradication Party---a joke with his neighbors because he was battling wild oregano ("fairly invasive") in his yard that summer.

He's in his early-eighties here:

The photo is him in his pajamas at the ocean.

Are you making a sign?
