BLFC is usually a large chunk of our annual income so this is a pretty dire situation, and any help or support would be GREATLY appreciated. We're going to update shop listings and get our recent collabs on there, and then work our asses off to recover from this while we keep taking care of Nebby ❤️‍🩹

Hey So this is capitalism trying to take a foothold in our community. They see a market, and they want a piece. If they get one, they'll want more, they'll start trying to show up at cons to sell us garbage They'll insert plants into our community (which I bet are already here now) --->

Goat! Another collab with @marandart.bsky.social =3

as the world gets worse you need to look at more bugs. it will help, in a cosmic sort of way. there's little animals around you that you can look at as they do little animal things. look a bug as soon as possible. connect with other animal in this way and know

“Can you tell me what's in the middle there?” “It's a bullet, right?” “Yep, that's the bullet that killed the goat!” Art and quote from interview with @echomary.bsky.social Graphic Media Label for artistic bloody imagery

Up next.... =3

I'm having so much fun laying beads of metal over @marandart.bsky.social's sketches! Seriously, new favorite art technique unlocked, it feels so good to make these!

I think my friend Io said it best www.etsy.com/listing/1743...

“I really like welding and metal sculpting because it’s like candy for all of my senses. There’s the sound, the feeling, there’s the physical aspect of it, there’s the creative flow, and it also taps into my more academic background... I love the chemistry of metal.” From @echomary.bsky.social

New Interview on The Otter Critic! A metalworking, fine art sculpture-making furry? It’s more likely than you’d think. Check out my interview with @echomary.bsky.social at the link below for their full story on becoming the artist and homesteader they are today!

looking into the article, important part to it is this was initiated by italian unions, making it possible to organize such action at all. which reinforces for what and why such union restrictions exist in america. keeping labor down doesn't just generate wealth, it also suppresses other movements.

Oh wow oh boy I've never pulled a fresh heart out of my garden before.

Slowly developing my Libertarian Sisyphus vs. Socialist Sisyphus pieces. Might make a Liberal Sisyphus one too for a triptychic. Which one so far is easiest to imagine smiling in? Lolllllll.

Seeing this message getting reposted via ai-slop motivated me to make it better so here you go

Suuuuuper excited to be giving my Foraging panel at BLFC in a couple weeks!!!!! The first time I presented this panel at a different venue, I was asked to not get too political with things but there are no such holds this time around >:3c schedule.goblfc.org/blfc-2025/ta...

In order to show up as a good organizer, youe going to have to do your personal homework. You are going to have to view it as an ongoing, life-long endeavor to understand your way around your own ego and how to set it aside. Otherwise you will get caught up in infighting instead of shared struggle.

You can delay capitalisms contradictions but you cannot stop them unless you get rid of the whole system. They will always reveal themselves. They will come back

If you hate seeing dub/noncon in art and you want less of it in the world, build some third spaces. Help organize accountability in your faith communities. Build local harm reduction resources. If you'd rather just complain, may life help you understand the genre eventually.

Saying this as someone who _used to be_ explicitly anti-noncon, Do NOT separate yourself from this issue. The people in charge of these censorship rules never care about how consent works. They don't care about sexology. They don't care about victims, creators, or any motives but their own.

Well now, would you look at that? A massive, 26-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 2.4 MILLION people in Sweden found found NO EVIDENCE to support a causal link between acetaminophen (the API in Tylenol) use during pregnancy and increased risk of autism, ADHD, OR intellectual disability in children.

I don't think folks who support a Cascadia secession movement ever think it through very well. Even IF it's all part of some magical plan where we're doing it to be better able to help folks in more vulnerable areas of the US instead of a fantasy about running away from our problems,

just found a bullet casing with the entire bee movie script on it

Autumn Light A painting from 2023, I really liked trying to portray translucency here. I referenced a hare skull in front of a lamp, and extrapolated how the lighting would look with a full skeleton. A few signed prints available here: lostthicket.etsy.com/listing/1805... #oilpainting #sciart

Melissa and some flowers Trying out some faux woodblock style stuff

I got this little metal sculpture, and I feel like it's missing something... Like a bunch of spiked straps forming a muzzle and harness. I should think of something clever to do with the ring in its mouth also.

It's supposed to rain a whole bunch tomorrow night and I'm seriously considering setting up a canopy tent around this guy to protect her. The buds just aren't far enough along for me to feel very good about harvesting them early like I'm doing with one of the other plants.

My desire to fuck this Pink panther character increases with every bundle of shingles I carry up onto the damn roof

Neat Portrait for Ens

This is cartoonishly silly, but I actually did the thing where I needed to move the little bridge that I made away from the roof to lay down tar paper, and I did it before setting up a ladder so that I can get down from here. There's still a way I can safely get down but I'm appreciating the moment.

how many years before Harbor Freight has a cheap induction forge?
