someone tell me why renting 400ft of studio/office space is more expensive than buying a whole-ass house around here what the h e l l maybe I'll just buy another (!!! never not bizarre that I am a Home Owner) house and turn it into a photography studio

🥰 eat shit, kim davis 🥰

I accidentally ordered mats in two different shades 😭 at least in person it’s not so obvious. The cream actually looks better on the zebra print! I only worked on the long frames today but I got the mitered half laps done with NO MISTAKES. Pls clap for my not completely incompetent joinery cutting

I love cute-stupid stuff like corbeau staying at the hotel and "tipping" 100k to Urbain so that his robin hood gang second-in-command can immediately show up to "collect the debt" Urbain owes. 11/10 overcomplicated debt cancellation plan street cred saving secret softie #lza

Tonight we hurt our own feelings testing out our fancy new UV light around the house I’ll be dousing everything in bleach this weekend 😌🤪💀

Now that I have a rolling camera case that needs stickers I have entirely forgotten every single artist that might make them So if you have any artist in mind who does punny and/or creativity job focused stickers I need something gay and also something camera-related

The real reason you see so many "natural light" photographers is that The Taming of the Strobes is a draconian battle every fucking time. If it were simple to set up studio lighting literally everyone would do it because it RULES

Syncing two flashes to a trigger shouldn’t be this freakin HARD But I WON. I DID IT. My boss gave up on them but not meeee

I'm making/upgrading frames for some artwork (a @pamwishbow.bsky.social lino print, 2 photo prints I bought from my college photo prof, and a @samanthamash.bsky.social I'm gifting to my partner) but oh my god I just spent $250 on P99 acrylic DIY framing saves you NOTHING, kids. Don't be like me.

31 kids and the pizza delivery guy got full size chocolate bars I wasn’t feeling very Halloween this year, but I had like three or four of them make comments about how my house is THE house and I loved it (I have done full bars every year since i moved in. Life dream!) Also, two Rumis!

Happy Howl-oween from me and my gremlin croissant 🥐 girl!

something something new animal crossing update something something where's my bingo card (I'm actually hyped don't look at me)

So it turns out my 16.5” tall dog can climb out of a 36” tall x-pen. And she did so with abdominal stitches in, because she likes to make me suffer. She has since been relegated to the living room crate.

Ansel got spayed yesterday and when I got her back she was so zooted she stared unblinking at the passenger seat like it was her favorite TV show Anyway today she was very unhappy I wouldn’t play fetch. Like girl you have! Stitches! You aren’t supposed to have this much energy right now!

I'm still not over "Nano Banana" as an app name. It's both so stupid and also kind of apropros lmao #adobemax

love that the genAI upscaling demo turned the flat ground into sand dunes and that the guy just jumped from that with no comment into "look how you can make your parent photo high res" like it's going to reliably keep the features of the individual instead of synthesizing nonsense #adobemax

Art-directable genAI sounds like an oxymoron Also add me to the group of people who hate the pervasive replacement of "art" and "video" and "stories" with just "content" Artwork is valuable because it takes time, thought, and effort. It ISN'T grist for the engagement mill! #adobemax

"If you don't have an iPhone, we're working on the Android app right now!" "..." "...yaaay." The crowd is D E A D lmao #adobemax

our design team takes the week to watch Adobe Max and so far it's all about using generativeAI, so I'm having a GREAT time 🫠💀 also all the demos look bad lol

I’m SO excited about this aluminum suitcase I found on marketplace today for $20 (!!) It’s a bit big to schlep photo gear like I wanted, and I need to re-glue the lining. Still, I’ve been wanting to get a 24” spinner bag for ages and you can’t do much better price wise, even for a knockoff!

I hate this fedora ass hat #lza

NAVEEN? Of MALDONIA? #lza

Devastating: my Chikorita is a boy and therefore ruins my bitch squad plans. But am I gonna redo that tutorial section? HELL NO #lza

It drives me completely insane that the default for camera controls isn’t correct. Just sitting here trying to pan and tilt the way you use a REAL CAMERA and continuously thwarted And I can’t even change it because LZA hasn’t given me the menu button yet

And it was my newest tire, too 🥲

Sundays are the best days to look at cars in Texas because dealerships are closed and no salespeople are there to harass you Only today when we went, I pulled handles just habitually, and 3/4 of the vehicles were unlocked. Very surprising! My partner thought we were going to get arrested lol

I wish they had used this beautiful quote he offered in the story as the headline instead: “She was scared also. It was not her fault.”

One of my favorite anecdotes from THE PREHISTORY OF THE FAR SIDE: "That doesn't sound like the Jane Goodall we know."

It’s officially spooky season, so I am now a bobcat skull crowned by her own jaw. I still want to get back to the original photo idea that prompted me to pull her majesty from the curio cabinet…

My partner wants a bigger tv, and our current one is about 10 years old, and I know $500 for a 55” tv isn’t nothing but it’s actually cheaper than the first tv I ever bought, a 37” Sony LCD for $700 in like…2010. Then I had a warranty claim in 2014 and replaced it with a 40” Sony LED for $400.

And here we have yet another entry into 'The Girlies Have Always Been Weird And We Love Them For It:' Space Trek Con 2 in St. Louis Missouri, 1983 🤍 🤍 🤍 #amoktimeday #startrek #k/s

OMG WE JUST HAD MORMONS COME TO OUR DOOR They did the whole “we’re spreading the word of Jesus or whatever are you interested?” And I said “we are whole ass lesbians sir” and my partner laughedddddd And then they left which is good bc I haven’t had reading time in weeks and I have a book to finish

brb crying over Maru the cat 😭 enjoy all the tiny boxes in cat heaven one of the best internet cats there ever was

The horrors start coming and they don’t stop coming: my old university has folded for one singular student who got mad at a professor for including basic information about LGBTQ folks as pertaining to children’s literature…in a 300 level class about children’s literature.

"Live action remake greenlit" "No one asked for it, so we're making it." "This Princess can save herself" Framing through the trailer and l m a o I'm so hyped Also tho on the parkplanet.net site is "sold out" merch. I want merch. I am part of the problem. #knightsofguinevere

Being trans is so old it was spelled with ſ

I haven’t opened Duolingo in years but I’m suddenly getting rudely worded subject lines from it trying to make me go back They were all gung ho about AI so I’m not going to, but this faux-mean email style is really not working for me. One of them even had the 🤢 emoji. Am I old now?

Practically triplets! My void cat was laying in a much less aesthetic pile of laundry, so Kibs posed for me with my lovely new dishes 🐈‍⬛ 🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤 Ceramics by @hellocloudy.bsky.social

#KPopDemonHunters really proves that every time this industry underestimates teenage girls, it leaves a billion dollars on the table.

I'm halfway through The Chosen and the Beautiful, by Nghi Vo. It's a fantasy reimagining of Great Gatsby, with Jordan Baker as a queer Vietnamese adoptee and the novel's POV character. At times, it's felt a little cut/pasted over the OG Jordan Baker, but I kind of feel like that's...the point? 1/

anyone who thinks this is cool should have their pants pulled down in public

I’m kind of amazed the kpdh tiger name is sticking. I remember the mlp name debate of the 2010s

I’m re-reading The Great Gatsby (sort of - never finished it in high school because I’m allergic to being ordered to read a certain book) I don’t remember if my southern hs ever talked about Nick CarraGAY but I definitely see the subtext We did talk about Moby Dick being gay tho so maybe we did?

I preordered RF Kuang’s new book on Amazon, but then I checked my local bookstore and saw they could order the same special edition! So I cancelled and ordered from them instead 😌

Currently researching the history of animal models in medicine because of a parenthetical in “Everything is Tuberculosis,” that said Koch “essentially developed the concept of using white mice for experiments.” It mostly looks like Koch used guinea pigs (which were succeeded by mice later).

If "fit check for my napalm era" doesn't become a viral TikTok sound I will simply have to do it myself

kpop demon hunters needed like two extra scenes to be flawless but it fuckin RULES I really hope it does well enough to pull a sequel and expand on the world and characters
