Every time I want to text one specific friend a photo, I have to disconnect from the wifi and do it over data or it will literally never send, and I'm very confused

I have hit the point in the horse where I'm like, what am I even doing here

Horse soup

Here's how they're looking after two weeks of squirrels and the first snow of the year

I know in my heart that there is someone in the world with a comparative chart of flavors across cheap brick ramen brands common in North America, but if they've put it on the internet, I can't find it

Iconic final lines of cinema like, "I'm gonna go home and sleep with my wife!"

We've started referring to when Mia hunkers down on a floor vent for heat as her choosing the wire mother

Just had possibly the best fried zucchini I've ever had

I'm sorry to certain people out there on Ao3, cause I don't believe Baby Firefly has ever had a girlfriend. I don't believe Baby Firefly has ever had sex that didn't end in a death. I barely believe Baby Firefly has had sex at all

My favorite evil clown in horror is Sid Haig's Captain Spaulding in the Firefly Trilogy, specifically because he's not like, something that looks like a clown or is working with people's fear of clowns. He's just a guy who's in clowning and serial killing for the love of the game. I respect that

One of our roommates wasn't feeling up to carving, so I carved two pumpkins in the time everyone else was carving one

Alex made a beautiful butternut squash soup today. 🍽️

reading slaughterhouse 5 for the first time and i was absolutely knocked senseless by this passage, which is so true and relevant that it feels like it was pulled from a history book

For anyone local to the Ottawa area, I've had two pieces accepted into the Memento Mori art show at Anina's Cafe that's starting next week and running through the end of November! www.eventbrite.ca/e/1730771316...

This weekend, I should be able to photograph and show off the things I'm submitting to that art show I got into

Posting on r/malelivingspace like, this is my handmade needlefelted acorn garland. This is the wardrobe that I store both my pool noodles and banjo on top of. This is my decorative fishbowl full of broken glass

I'm finally playing last year's Mario and Luigi game (my library hold from when it was on pre-order only now came through), and how dare this children's game be a game for children

I look very much like my dad and not like my mom, to the extent that I once had a middle school teacher tell me that she hadn't believed me that that was my mom until we both pulled the same expression

How do I explain Plato's allegory of the cave to my cat, who is entranced not by the Halloween decorations blowing in the wind on the front porch, but by their shadows on the window?

I need to learn some sad banjo songs so I can serenade Mia as she starves in the last thirty minutes before dinner

cop in The Wicker Man (leaving unharmed because he slept with that hot blonde): what a strange, sexy island

It's very funny going to a largely French doctors office with a gender clinic in it, cause it's almost exclusively the trans people who are coming in speaking English

Our roommates have adapted admirably to my habit of just taking random stuff out of the recycling bins to repurpose or use in art

We've made it back from our theater adventures, and after doing very little driving in the last year and a half, two ~8 hour road days in a week have ended me

look at my TOOTH BOWLS

I'm gonna dream about the carrot and ricotta salad I got

I've spread one of my childhood favorite desserts to Jared, which is just frozen fruit with milk and a little sugar poured over it and allowed to sit just long enough for the milk to freeze around the fruit

Practicing queer masculinity by doing my needlefelting while watching Goodfellas

We're on a little adventure this week!

We're in the part of the night where I read Jared quotes about the Annie comic strip and how ridiculously conservative it was

Finally watched WWDITS' final season, and at least I'm in the target audience for a Newhart reference, I guess

I finally figured out how to make carrot tops into a delicious sauce (my attempts at carrot top pesto were very disappointing), and I am so powerful

It's a good movie

Hope you had a chance to go to the Hawaii Island Festival of Birds this weekend? Almost 90% of my birds were sold out in half an hour after opening time. 🤯 Here is a pic of my table before opening. #birdart #sciart #NatureArt #WildlifeArt #birds #Hawaii

A little preview of my current WIP

Spent a week feeling miserable for no clear reason before remembering I am someone with bad seasonal allergies in my second year in a new climate and adding a third antihistamine to my daily rotation. Weirdly, now I feel human again

I got accepted into a small local art show that runs next month, which will be my first time showing a piece! Now I have to actually make the piece(s) for it

Playing around with some decor ideas for Samhain

The smaller one's already sold, but the large one is still available! Should I make more of the small ones?

I'm gaining followers, so I thought I should reintroduce myself. I'm Alex. I'm a thirty-year-old neurodivergent queer American living in Canada, a third generation sff nerd, and an aspiring jack of all crafts. I'm in fandom, I love fandom, and I love the people in fandom.

I'm also down to do needlefelting commissions, but not ready to structure set rates or an official post for that. But talk to me if you've got an idea you want to see

Would you like to own a charmingly round horse based on the Lascaux Cave paintings? Now's your chance. I have two handmade needlefelt horses for sale on ko-fi. I'd love it if you checked them out or shared this post. ko-fi.com/s/70790863c6

Morning walk

This is indirectly my fault, cause I saw someone talking about "couples or triads or quartets or line marriages" and had to yell about Heinlein, which got us more generally into scifi poly shit

The latest mirror piece

The point of creativity is to torture your OCs

Made a fascinus with some pre-made beaded wings

I've applied to submit a piece to a local art show (small, coffee shop gallery stuff) for the first time, and I should hear back one way or another in three weeks.

When you imagine an elephant, do you imagine an African or Asian elephant?
