In my Marcus Era. Considering drawing nothing but Marcus for the next 365 days

Time for a Christmas Poo™

I’ve been getting annoyed wondering why I can’t make pressure sensitive lines on procreate and turns out my Apple Pencil doesn’t do that. I’ve had it a year and only now discovered this, I just thought I wasn’t using it right

It was sunny earlier so I thought I’d do some work in the garden noticed the bottle and can bin is overflowing so thought I’d crush the contents decided I’d make a can crusher walked the dog went to the shop to get some hinges edited a reel whilst eating my lunch and haven’t moved since

Christmas Eve and everyone has forgotten how to be normal

All right kin ell calm down

Motorway services at night are such strange places

Barbie is annoyed these are not for her

Edwin Mieczkowski (1965)

Become ungovernable

I have two (2) art degrees don’t you know

I listened to a playlist made by a cartoon dog from the front of a packet of dog treats earlier and it was actually full of what pissed on pink wine elder millennials thought were classic bangers what a time to be alive

I’ve had to explain sleep paralysis to a number of people over the past few days I genuinely thought it was more common an experience than apparently it is

My friend sent me some herbal sleepy teabags made by their partner who is a hedge witch, they sent me a sleeping tincture a while back which worked really well to the point I got off sleeping tablets. The teabags, however, didn’t work and also gave me gnarly af dreams AND a few sleep paranoia events

I’ve been listening to Nothing Much Happens stories to help me chill before going to sleep for like 5 years now and my brain has decided they no longer work. I’ve been desperately searching for some other kind of calming/mindfulness/body scan type audio for three weeks now and haven’t managed to

Not me thinking the Human Rights Campaign logo was the Greggs logo tho. (It was)

The Shadow magazine dated December 15, 1938. Cover by George Rozen.

I’m reading furious comments on a YT video of weeding the Bolton & bury canal posted by an angling volunteer group. People have OPINIONS on the right machines to do the job and it is fascinating that they have found a place to voice them. As with all online comment sections, they are wrong.

Yesterday evening I also managed to lose nearly all my consultation notes that I’d worked on for an hour and a half and was about to finish so had to redo them. Tried to listen to a get rid of worry and do gratitude mindfulness thing to get myself to sleep, which I suppose was not the one

Yesterday I did not feel my alarm go off and missed my morning client. They let me reschedule today so that’s cool but obviously I slept like utter shart because I was worried I may not wake up in time

I needed a POV shot and I didn’t have a POV rig so I made one

Done my usual thing of stalking a new behaviour client dog’s walker on the socials and am like “yep, that’ll be why your dog now has behaviour problems”

I’ve been d3ad with flu for nearly a fortnight and back working properly this weekend totally stacked back to back. I am probs gonna be ill again by monday

Done a huge amount of sleeping all week and last night couldn’t do that because the dog was snoring so loudly I ended up awake and panicked I wouldn’t sleep enough to be able to manage today

I’ve had bad flu for over a week now, it is getting super boring and deeply concerning me regards the stacked weekend of work I have

I ordered a university alumni card in the hope I would be able to access online research articles. It arrived and I have a feeling it’s just going to get me into their library on campus which I absolutely will not do

No but toppling capitalism might xx

“I was just following otters.”

cashier: can take your order? me: [spent the entire time in line rehearsing for this moment] yes, one pleaseburger cheese :)

Gonna get Barbie and me matching jackets like this, so we can bazz about on an e-scooter wearing balaclavas with goggles and try to get auld folks to get us vapes and Glens vodka from the off licence

RIP Martin Luther, you would have loved Papal Audience Black Friday deals.

did a spider post this

Today we are reading vintage Richard Scarry

I feel you, ancient Mongolian ceramic hedgehog. I feel you.

Mushroom spore landing in my lungs: I eat? My immune system: no not right now he’s still alive Mushroom spore: ok i wait

Why I’m like I am (aesthetics)

Woah

Seen way more of Lily Rose Depp “deglammed” with a prosthetic cleft face today than I wanted to. Genuinely thought we were past dressing normies up as folk with physical differences for rubbernecking purposes

I’m reading Dracula. Never read it before but have been alive for 38 years so my brain already contains multitude versions of aesthetic references to it so my mental image is quite wild. Not least as when I mentioned this he said “yeah it’s everywhere, that film we watched recently, Sesame Street”

She looks like someone tried to do a haute cuisine humbug.

Why is this Abraham Lincoln

maybe i am going insane

It’s hail stoning and I’m sat in my car buffering after a day talking out loud my thoughts

Van has been taken to the garage, my fave mechanic was in so I did my usual entertaining and caused one of the young apprentices to clutch pearls because I said the F word ahahah

Had the AA out to look at Tom’s van earlier, Tom was not home. He also didn’t really explain what exactly was going on nor had I driven the van whilst it was being at fault. Which meant I came across like a total dizzy woman until I was explaining I’d replaced the relays in there the other week

I’m reaching the end of the latest (what I assumed to be the final) slough house book and it’s giving real big “not the end” vibes. I need this series to end. I need my life back, Mick. I need my life back.

My bro sent me a reel of some mad man doing cold water immersion in a cryo facility at -50°c, having his hair spiked up by a helper wearing full body warm suit so it froze into points. I can’t even walk into my bathroom when Tom’s left the window open without losing my extremities to reynauds.
