Rough day, so have a poem about the Jar of Moles in the Grant Zoology Museum in London that everyone has regarded as too thoroughly batshit to publish

Explain your @ in art school i had a tumor fuckin with my adrenaline that made me constantly manic and so i'd work/play super hard til i dropped, like a windup toy jittering forward til it dies lol. winduptoy was taken tho. so was my tumor! (my work ethic is more sustainable now.)

oh claudia... forever one of my favorite fictional characters, and the tv show just writes her perfectly. i love u claudia!! u guys i adore the show. i think it completely honors the characters and narrative more than the book lmao. its just perfect ITS PERFECT! #iwtv

i have been some kind of very-not-sober, drenched & rained-on & bug-bitten, 20k steps from walking or dancing, collapsing into bed in the wee hours for 3 days in a row now and thats not from beyond wonderland or whatever else is happening in chicago thats just. normal chicago life

She is very lonely

i remember looking at the open mug of booze that i'd sloshed all over the forest, seeing my half-naked trans body, seeing the furry tail my 12 year old self wouldve killed to scamper around in, feeling loved and free not embarrassed i was just existing

been at job 1 all day now we go to job 2. AND IM STILL FUCKING BROKE how how howhowhow

some more little thingies about going to the burn with my love last summer .....................................................................

trying to be casual about the fact i just overheard my middle school student go "AND ITS HE/THEY!!" to his mom about me during class but im sitting here like

how does one move to/live in nyc. if theyre broke. considering smthg temporary for next year. maybe. i dont know.

looking back at my oc's from high school to college and im like wait was this a trans metaphor

hi

MY STYLE IS ALL OVER THE FUCKING PLACE AND IT IS NOTTTTT UP TO MY CONTROL

welcome to my awesome cult #cotl #cultofthelamb

trying to be at peace with the fact that im swinging HARD into burnout-reset-mode after magfest and just let myself do nothing for a bit

LOOKY i made another fursona his name is MINKY... get it ... minky.... he likes 80s new wave and biting and attacking the other forest critters and going to the club.

is it fucking stupid to try and go to the club tonight its -14F out but ive been getting depressed and stir crazy all week

This GFM for the ICE agent who killed Renee Good is still up and they have raised close to a million dollars. Please read this thread and report the fundraiser. This man killed an innocent person and will most likely kill again because that's what ICE agents do. He doesn't deserve to be wealthy.

on a somewhat related note i finally am getting my medical shit together (guy who had a tumor a long time ago voice.) being not-depressed is wild bc now i do wanna prolong this life lmao

im so thankful i feel like ive found It in years before i'd come home from the big event (magfest) that i structure my whole Heart around, i'd come home to abrupt stagnation and creative hopelessness but this year -

unsurprisingly this came back and caused MORE issues... but i figured it out for real this time. 1 camera.

how do u handle friends that consistently mess up ur pronouns, but DO immediately correct themselves? it still gives me massive dysphoria b4 and after every hang, and i dont wanna mix em w/ friends that DO see me for me, in case that wrong perception rubs off on them ?

#artvsartist ! i got a LONG sentimental post about this on my insta, but the tldr is that 2025 was a lot. my highlights are: - was a guest speaker on magfest alt control panel - showed bloodrage as its own event at a Real venue - showed my solo game, pan, 3x (incl barcelona!) - didnt die

treating myself to a bunch of makey makey go's rn bc i think that will be fun for me ........... i like how they advertise them as wearable too like yeah i WILL be bring that shit around

me and my girlfriend's halloween costumes!!! yay!

i love him !

giveashirt.net/products/goo... i finished that t-shirt design!! 100% of proceeds go streetwise so they can continue to support the unhoused and at risk in chicago!

ive been BONKERS amount of anxious and overwhelmed lately which is fun for everyone around me. and im coping by non-stop drawing, but only drawing things that are avoiding my work or self-imposed deadlines or social plans
