sorry this is a galoots-only acct now

the new developments on inat inspired me to make a diagnostic thread for every insect order because there's only like 30something of them. going to try and avoid exceptions and extremely technical characteristics when possible. 🧵

Bringing your custom extra loud keyboard to an office where you work with others should be a crime.

“One of our very good friends – he now does not have the emotional courage to hang up a sheet to collect moths at night It is too devastating to see how few there are” www.theguardian.com/environment/...

An art a day keeps the sadness away.

Part 2.

I’m sorry but if your students use AI to write papers and you use AI to grade them zero school is happening. You are running together on a hamster wheel

Part 2.

I think this is my first time rereading superior foes and the physical comedy bits by @stevelieberart.bsky.social are really hitting

Gods aren’t perfect ✏️

Write, write, write. Make as much art as you can. It'll keep you sane

Telling people to “touch grass” is out. Now we say “let a bug land on you.” Possible meanings: - Be gentle and still - Overcome your fear - Appreciate the small things - A bug may be tired so you should let it rest on your hand

Meguro River with cherry blossoms does not disappoint 🌸

Is now the time for a new Captain Canuck ongoing series? 🍁

So excited to share that I'll be part of the @lunapress.bsky.social 2026 Novella Series! In This City, Where it Rains is a Scottish gothic horror set in a city of perpetual rain, with ghosts, weird moths, dark rituals, and family secrets...🖤✨More below! www.lunapresspublishing.com/post/excitin...

Starting a new WIP for when the current WIP is completed…

The toxic jungle and its many inhabitants Kicking off a monthly riso print subscription starting with this over on my patreon

Look at the wonderful map that @thelen0.bsky.social drew for my #Mothership adventure titled “Oh yes, another bug hunt!” I am taking an illustration break and only doing the writing for this one. Get ready to hunt some big bugs! :3

I owe an immense THANK YOU to everyone who supported DANGER BOi on Kickstarter! This is a really hard time, and it means the world that yall would spend your hard earned dollars on this little piece of independent art. @djtalkstrash.bsky.social and I are both very proud of what we’re cooking up

14,000 words and getting to the narrative climax! With edits, this will be my second completed novella.

Backed! 💯 Check out DANGER BOi & the ANTAGONiSTS and back @allsorrows.bsky.social’s new comic if you can. They are so close to that extra short story! 🦸‍♂️

If you’re nominating for awards this year, please do consider the work that Hexagon published in 2024! We published 18 short stories, and two short comics from a ton of amazing contributors. 🧡

10,000 words and counting… The story is Bond-adjacent while the vibes are somewhere between Blade Runner and Westworld (with a dash of The Matrix and Ready Player One tossed in for good measure). Let’s hope it all comes together!
