My dream job would be a researcher for a YouTube channel or podcast. I am so good at finding information. I once found a student film from a Maine college in the 90’s based off a friend saying they saw it at a VHS rental store. I actually gave a copy to the director of the film, who didn’t have it.

Today I was walking around one of our spaces helping someone make a book and screenprint while making this book. It felt strangely badass.

Amy has just regaled me the Pittsburgh specific story of “lemonadegate” and “the lemonade twins” and I just want to comment under every Reddit post about this: oh this makes you upset? This feels like child abuse? Can I interest you in home school reform?

A conservator told me that artists are the worst at taking care of their art and I informed her that my one piece of internationally touring art - that I am best known for - is currently wrapped in a trash bag in my garage, the only place with termite damage in my house.

The funniest part of fanbinding is sometimes you're like "oh I need like a ream of bible paper to make this project a reality" and then realize it's shockingly hard to buy bible paper but you're too far in now.

There are a few Goodreads commenters who very confidently say it doesn’t say this - but that’s probably because it’s a throwaway line. Legitimately this throws so much of the rest of the book into question if this made it through writing and editing.

Which is fantastic, one of my go-to’s for everyday wear and which got me accidental stolen valor when I tabled an unrelated event wearing it.
