They're hoping we'll forget about this in a few months and that we'll resubscribe to Nitro so they can get back their funding for this nonsense. Cancel yours and do not forget about this.

Time to say goodbye 💙 What an incredible season, what an incredible career. I will miss her so much in competition #winterolympics #kaorisakamoto #figureskating

I stand corrected. We had our next meeting and I swear I just sat through some butt-awful takes, all because no one read the Translation Notes as they went through the books. No historical and cultural context to be found. My pain was real but HEY! I FINISHED THE ILIAD! #booksky #shinysrhimpreads

perhaps the most valuable lesson I've learned from skating is that in order to improve you must fail, and fall, and experience the discipline of basic physics acting on your body, and this is how you get good and make art. There is no other way to make progress in your life. go touch ice.

ok finally finished the page with some nice skating, more Kaori, Nakai, Riku and Ryuichi

god as much as i wanted that kaori win and am still feeling wistful about it, i just love so much the message that alysa's win sends as a refutation of the eteri era

In my mind, 2026 started today. Let's get all of the trash out from 2025 and start over. Burn it down Fire Horse!

Happy Lunar New Year! I was born in the year of the horse many moons ago and this year is also the fire element so I've painted a fire horse in the style of traditional Chinese watercolor~ Will you be doing anything special to celebrate? #LunarNewYear #ChineseNewYear #YearoftheHorse

It’s almost time for the Women’s event and I can’t watch until tonight but I just want all the best for every single one of these precious skaters. May Miura/Kihara have broken the curse upon this ice 🤞🏼⛸️

I present to you my sweet wonderful ice babies. I love them all with my whole heart 😭😭😭 ⛸️

I can’t not think about how NBC showed Nathan Chen and Simone Biles in the ice skating arena, and how they’d understand more than probably anyone out there #winterolympics #figureskating

the Olympics has really made clear to me that I am such a figure skating snob like I want casual fans to enjoy it for sure but I have been exposed to so many takes that have me like “get out of my house”

We've been looking forward to sharing this news for a long time. We're making a graphic novel! The Owl House: The Long-Lived King Written by me and the amazing @mikkicrisostomo.bsky.social Illustrated by the incomparable @dindu99.bsky.social We're so excited to tell a brand new story.

One of the hardest parts of changing your story in a new draft is looking back at all you can't keep from the last draft and going, "Damn. I really loved some of these scenes." I know we can't keep everything but GAH! My heart for what could've been 😭 #writingcommunity #writesky

@discord.com Did you know that pinky promises that you aren't saving the data, especially when you've already exposed thousands of users just months ago, don't actually mean anything to us?

Going straight from figure skating to Green Day. This is how it’s meant to be

I should get a medal during these Olympics for how many times I see a bad figure skating take and I choose to walk away. Or at least a cookie.

Wow! So cool!

ICYMI, Gai*man is slinking out of the shadows and posting again, trying to scuttle his way back into the public's good graces. Please take care of yourselves, believe women, believe survivors, and fuck that guy.

I got to have my first meeting with my Iliad book club and my ancient studies neurons are on FIRE! It was so nice to be in a room filled with other people analyzing the translation and to discuss word choice, historical context... and that Agamemnon is a "punk ass bitch". 😂✌🏼 #booksky

I will scream everywhere I can how good this book is and how the author deserved better. The Poisons We Drink was one of my top favorite books of 2024 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 #booksky

January Wrap-Up! ✨ I got super into Pass the Monster Meat, Milady after watching Dungeon Meshi 😂 ✨ Landing in Place is fantastic and plz be on the lookout for it in May!! ✨ None of this includes how much of the Iliad I read this month 🙃 ✨ Not pictured: so many webtoons 😂 #shinyshrimpreads #booksky

I love pitch events because ohmygosh everyone is writing such cool stuff that I want in my hands! Pitch events also remind me how little I've written since the last time I did one 😂 #writingcommunity

Boosting for my art bro because it sucks when your artist branding is older than AI but that’s what people think of when they see it now 🙃 Give her a follow; she’s a real live artist who does nifty and fab work! 💖💖

When a new hold becomes available in Libby and you can only really read it in app 😩 I truly loathe having to read on my phone or tablet instead of my paperwhite. #booksky 📚💙

This book doesn’t come out till May, but it’s a story we could all read right now. It’s more than a coming of age story; it’s a story of the ways we rebel. The ways injustices intertwine. Histories of revolution and grief and hope wrapped in the DNA of people. Beautiful and needed. 💖 #booksky 📚💙

Went to watch the replay of the Women’s FS from #EuroFigure and got jumpscared by Johnny and Tara. No thanks. Back to the World Feed ASAP. ⛸️

Literally my week 🏠

Natural talent is nothing compared to the ability to keep making shit long after everyone else has given up

If you are a writer/author, you are probably aware of the issues with AI in the book industry, and maybe you don't know about the issues with illustration. ALL generative ai is bad (stolen copyright, etc), so don't use generated images in your blog or posts here. It's an immediate Unfollow for me.

Lookit this mural my bestie did!! Absolutely fab artist on and off the screen 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

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

Shuckle, but made out of gummy worms ✨

The way I’ve got an entire folder of these on my computer, hoping one day to use them and know that likelihood is zilch 😭

Morning mood ☕️

2025 Reading Snapshot ✨ Less books than 2024 (225 books), but still plenty! My Reading Goal is always 53 books (so averaging one a week over a year; manageable for me since I read lots of genres, long and short), so we’ll see what 2026 brings! #shinyshrimpreads #booksky 📚💙

I used to make a doodle for the New Year with a wish and the Pantone of the year. Screw Pantone now ✌🏼 2026’s word: Survive. If I can thrive? Awesome. Does this look like a letter scramble? Yes, and that’s my head this year 😌 Happy New Year, y’all! 💖✨ #theshinyshrimp #lettering #typography #art

Last Monthly Reading Wrap Up of 2025, since I know I’m not gonna finish anything today 😂 ✨ Second Death of Locke is not for everyone but I LOVED it! Will be reading more from her! ✨ Finally read Daughter of Darkness after years on my shelf and I can’t wait to read the sequel! #shinyshrimpreads 📚💙
