proud of everyone for surviving 6 hrs of my driving on unmarked and unmaintained forest service roads (without cell service in pitch darkness) because the no-motor-vehicles-allowed “road” we’ve been taking to our secret campsite for years was finally physically blocked and we had to find another way

my son is undergoing a transformation…. puberty sure is wild

aaaugh - thank goodness for the online guides*, or i'd never have made it past this level! it feels like i've been staring at this loading screen for almost a year.... #friendsatthetable #perpetua (*and @mrmarielda.bsky.social, who colored the Little Snail and its occupants)

gotta double check that this isn’t actually ten times darker than i thought it was on my work computer but then maybe…. maybe this is done???

my creative drive is still not talking to me but we Are at least going to have a fantastic garden this year! (if you’re in the pittsburgh area and want vegetables let me know..! we accidentally started more than we can plant, even after digging out the back of the yard)

thinking about him..... 💞🐀💞

y’all i learned SO much about steam engines tonight in an effort to avoid painting fluffy clouds coming out of the little snail… there’s a lot of water in there, and its not where i thought it went..!

sigh…. at least i gave into trust issues and kept my sfw and nsfw art on separate accounts more or less from the start here. do you think the pendulum of time will swing back before the remains of the online communities i loved completely dissolve?

If you have nsfw set to "hide" I implore you to set it to "warn". You still won't see anything except for a blurred post Otherwise once they roll out account-wide adult content labeling a whole lot of people including me are going to disappear from your timelines, even our sfw text posts

was excited to see my spiderwort blooming, so i set up a little shelter with my poncho strung between the fence and a step ladder and foolishly used watercolors in the rain (painting a flower in the rain: also not smart, the water really weighed it down & changed the lighting)

flood warning notifications on my phone constantly the past few days but all we’ve got so far is “stream reaches its typical depth for the first time this year” (it’s still been raining often enough to make ppl complain but it’s not raining Enough (in Volume) for spring imho)

“Oh buddy, I don’t think that’s Duvall…” For @luketaluketa.bsky.social for #secretsamol here are some little vignettes of It's adventures with Chine around the wastelands of Sangfielle. Maybe if It didn't nap the day away Chine would be able to get a good night's sleep! @friends-table.bsky.social

do you think if terapine have to worry about their algae hair getting enough water?

had to get my car fixed today and didn’t want to pay for a ride so i wandered around the woods behind the mechanic’s shop and found some good flowers to paint all day

i love spring..!

hi mom :’)

for a moment brnine thought they’d finally done something right, but then they realize they’re still alive #friendsatthetable || (an extremely belated) #secretsamol for grace <3

they're in Redolencia now

yesterday it rained off and on, and i loved being out in it 💞 listening to it all around, seeing the bugs come out from hiding afterwards, and the glittering drops of water on the leaves..!!

did a lot of very mediocre paintings on my trip (too distracted by The World to put too much attention into painting), but also spent a few hours last night on this pawpaw flower that turned out alright <3

just had the best camping trip of my life? turns out the secret is to bring a third person so i don’t feel guilty about ditching my partner to wander the woods and river aimlessly for two days straight

hey quick everybody name at least one thing on the Little Snail's menu #friendsatthetable

was looking through the letters my father sent home from overseas in the months before i was born and look at this gift we found…

color wheel is done!! #friendsatthetable feat. @dancynrew.bsky.social ‘s ephrim, @arparparp.bsky.social ‘s chine, @guccigarantine.bsky.social ‘s moon juggler wellaway, & @marjulia.bsky.social ‘s cori and antistrophe’s a direct face cast from @joehills.net cuz i think they have similar energy

been painting plants again this year and decided to try out making my own watercolor block using cheap loose paper and binding glue…. and i think it’s maybe my favorite paper? locked in to art for more than an hour (my lunch break, when i do my little paintings) for the first time in a long while,

burning the midnight oil.... #Perpetua #FriendsattheTable

(today was 70 tomorrow is supposed to drop to 35 i love the spring 💖💖💖)

tonight i let warren into the dark yard and when he returned to the light he was irritated with something on his back. so naturally i went to pull it out of his fur and friends? it was his own poop. why did my son betray me? how could he do such a thing (no really how did he do that)?

if you enjoyed minute 35 of Realis 21 …….this comic is for you <3

it’s my birthday and i’m feeling a little funny about it this year :’) if you’re inclined to say happy birthday maybe share a fatt headcanon you’ve otherwise kept to yourself, or send a picture of a weird cloud, or tell me about an impactful experience you’ve had with a wild animal or something

nap time with uncle nicky……….

:’( if i didn’t work weekends this icebreaker marathon would be ideal for getting myself to finish secsam, i just know it (i say, pretending warren isn’t extremely antsy because clover has a tooth abscess and can’t play with him right now)

here’s some pictures of the puppy that’s made it impossible to concentrate as a placeholder for my secsam entry (to be completed later this week… he’s got puppy class both today and tomorrow 💀) (he’s 68lbs now!! we’re all in danger)

And since we both freaks heres the one where his status of living vs dead is unclear CW Bugs and death

Happy Secret Samol to @arparparp.bsky.social Get absolutely chined on fool, completely chined out

i think a new perpetua or realis episode would be a wonderful gift on this day, the last before the secret samol hard deadline <3 <3 ((given that we only just got the most recent perpetua 3 days ago i don't expect it, but what if.........?))

the people long for the bugs!!! (ps are we missing a perpetua scene? austin seems to have notes on a scene that i'm 90% sure wasn't in the last ep..)

did you know my partner’s family is from Bluff City? tonight we found this treasure among the family photos he’s been sitting through…my favorite uncle, Buzz

did u know you can use vba coding in microsoft word? i feel insane with power. also i blinked and lost 9 hours at work today……….. dangerous (it’s adhd that holds all the power)

#fattrewind devotion

went to the neighborhood grocery store and i guess they got a liquor license because a solid quarter of the store has been replaced with beer and wine 😵‍💫 i usually go to one closer to work anyway but …. it’s depressing lol

!! long day alone in the lab today, but new realis dropped !! a gift !!
