Fish names with a story for this week. I’ve gone for the John Dory. No one knows why it’s called that for sure but it’s also called Peter’s fish as it’s fabled to bear the thumbprint of St. Peter on its side.

For "postage stamp" theme, I imagined a stamp from (Naabeehó Bináhásdzo) Navajo Nation. The reservation has one of the highest COVID-19 death rates in the US, a kind of genocide by neglect. You can help here: https://t.co/OZiGrnZbYr
