Little articulated tiger modeled by MatMierMakes and printed on my work’s Bambu X1 Carbon. Scaled it way down to be pocket-friendly. They loved it so much they want to print one for the office :D I really want to give him a name! Let me know some suggestions :D

FINALY! A little crafting time after my carpal tunnel surgery. A little sore, but WOW, it’s already so much better! Tippy is being my little assistant :) she’s making sure my headlight is staying safe. She enjoys sitting on 1 craft item while I work 😸

Made this for No Kings tmrw :3 @sonicmega.bsky.social

They ARE good! Not just in taste, but bite-texture as well. I was afraid they were going to be ice-cube solid. But they’re like a happy well made frozen snowballs of goodness (made of grapes not snow). Thanks for the tasty recommendation @sonicmega.bsky.social

Sewing machine update! Knew it was this kind of issue. Not idea *how* it happened to a new machine, but let’s get this little sewing-fella feeling well again :)

Scored this little fella from getting tossed! It was in my job’s Library Of Things. It’s not catching the bobbin thread. I’ve fixed that issue before, so hopefully when time allows, I’ll try to get it back up and running 🖤

Surgery healing progress: finally took off the big wrap and using a smaller bandage. Bruising in my palm and lower wrist. A little itchy. Absolutely fascinated how the sutures were done :D Never knew there were so many variations :) Even if it’s still achy, I feel the relief already 💛

Day 1 back at work. Learning how to use Glowforge’s software. Made a coaster. I was distracted by hand pain and goofed a setting (got smoke markings on it). I should be able to clean it with a little sanding. Going to clear coat it eventually.

Just wanted to give you all a quick shout out! Thank you so much for donating and sharing, we truly appreciate all the support and love. Py is still in the very long process of healing and we’re still paying down Tippy’s bill. Little by little, everything will get better!

In less than 5 hours, I’ll be starting my carpal tunnel release surgery. The anxiety just started kicking in a bit. I’ve tried other ways to alleviate the pain and function issues, but all else failed. Hoping this solves it. I’m so thankful to have a partner helping me though this 💛

Tomorrow is another holiday crossover day for us! Pi-Day, St. Patrick’s Day, AND Tippy’s Birthday. With some construction paper and a balloon from Dollar Tree, I managed to make it look a little festive :)

Itty bitty Thai basil! Got it at a pho shop near my job with a coworker on our lunch break. He didn’t even know what it was :) Excited over how well it’s doing. This place knows their fresh ingredients :D

Cats are silent ambush hunters… Tippy is a plow truck!

YAOI

Little Tipps keeping her favorite person cozy and warm while he heals. She’s been through something similar. So with gentle purrs, she says “get well soon”.

About 45-50 mins into Py’s dental surgery. I can barely hear what’s going on in the other room, but holy hell it’s sounds intense :( I’ll ask later if he wants me to fill in the details or if he prefers to. Hoping it’s not much longer @pumpkinpythias.bsky.social

why

I try to do this as much as possible. There’s too many put-downs in today’s society. Be kind, be supportive.

I can’t begin to tell you the amount of times I’ve heard “They don’t like me because I’m nice” and find out they’re perverted or dangerous.

An update and thank-you from Py about his upcoming surgery and the GoFundMe :)

Someone a decade+ younger than I asked me if I saw the Matrix in theaters and how cool that must have been

Childhood ruined. Adulthood too...

Another reason why elites keep pushing AI images. Snuff out the humanity.

Trans guys be like “yeah no shit. But when it’s *us* needing them, it’s suddenly a problem”.

Please help (or even just share) our fundraiser. Py is in severe dental pain, and it has taken a toll on his quality of life. The price for the necessary surgery is just as painful (especially right after Tippy's big dental surgery). Any help is greatly appreciated! gofund.me/c95d2ba5e

St. Luigi!

Mourning people I’ve never known, alongside the people who have known them practically their entire lives. Perhaps it’s only because the human heart is so capable of unconscionable hatred that it can also be so full of unconditional empathy and love.

Sweet little Tippy 🖤🐈‍⬛🖤

Tippy helped me chill out today. She’s such a good kitty I surprised her with a cheese wedge :D Yes, she has a favorite (Gouda). We will share a little nibble this weekend :)

I swear. Don’t. Bail. Them. Out. Let. It. Die.

I can’t believe it’s not California! Memories of California… 0% is more than 0%?

I applaud this! It’s never too late to save your creative self and hard-working artists.

I just learned something! Cats + banana plants = okay! This big one at work keeps making little suckers/pups like the world depends on it. I kinda want one :)

100%Will snuggle Eggo! She’s a happy round hen :)

A very special Py-plush 💛 Embroidery eyes will give him the realism he needs that safety eyes just don’t capture. First time doing embroidery faces, but it’s coming out so well! Will do this more :D (Thanks to Great Neck Library’s STEM Lab for letting me use their equipment)

Commissioners and artists, be aware of this if you use the PayPal

*sniff sniff* you smell sleepy!! I swear Tippy knows when I’m about to crash. She gave me a good sniff and climbed on my stomach to get me to lay down. Sure enough I was out like a light in no time. Not sure why I’m so low energy today, but I’m making it though :)
