also, personal news. i'm now advanced certified. (at what point do i change "scuba newb" in my bio?)

💫 chasing wonder 💫 a personal piece created back last fall for an unconference. (wonder.voyage) i had a lovely time chasing wonder weekend, with a bunch of nerds. the most freeing part for me was that no one really knew me. i mostly talked about scuba! publishing books, tea, FIRE, and travel.

recently i was asked about my top anime series and the person responded with: “so you like the old stuff huh” 🙃

did an experiment and posted to an ig close friends list for the first time in 5’ish years. i liked hearing from people who i hadn’t heard from awhile, and hope that was mutual. kind of sucks that’s where most friends are checking. but i have to delete the app now after a week, bc it makes me sad.

continuing the tradition of making a simpler pattern for drop 2 for @giantrobotstore.bsky.social totoro show. set of 4 chibi totoro with leaf. (the simpler patterns a different kind of fun.) it’s interesting to see how different glass & solder change the vibe. #totoro #stainedglass #artistsofbsky

stoked someone got this!

last day to order (us domestic) with the goal of shipment by xmas 🎄 mintlodica.com

ends today

whoops, the acronym is apparently INCUP... where I = Interest. but you see when i first heard it i assumed "interest" was implied bc nothing is compelling if isn't inherently interesting. 🤣

Black Friday is also Creator Day on itch which means they don’t take any transaction fees today, so it’s a great day to snag some comics.

so recently i came across this acronym that describes how ADHD minds are motivated. NCUP — Novelty Challenge Urgency Passion the future where i never have to take or look at a keyboard photo again motivates me.

wild it's been a year since the last totoro show! ⚡️ i decided to go more "classic" this year and use the gamut of skills. painting on glass and contrasting large curve cuts with tiny little pieces. (ouch, my fingers.) art ig: www.instagram.com/p/DRc2ePzkp2z/ #totoro #stainedglass #artistsofbsky

What is the name of your least favorite child? In what year did you abandon your dreams? What is the maiden name of your father's mistress?

my birthday gift to myself this year is officially closing this chapter. more in the post, but a bit: @mintlodica.com was something I took on to spend time on what I enjoyed doing. however, it turns out that running a business is 99% not creative work.

happy nonbinary day from (the corner of) our keyboard 💛💜🖤

a friend asked me if i was "okay" bc i've been in a good mood lately & it goes against my personal brand as an angry bi. 😅

lunchtime!! #earthbound #pixelart

happy pride month! 🌈 here are some pretty gay keyboards 🪽✨ dress yours up too: mintlodica.com/collections/... 💖 #pridemonth #mechanicalkeyboards

Not to be unkind, but I am so impatient about the “what’s the point of making my little zines/comics/crafts/art when the world is on fire” sentiments. I get it, but saving the world is not a responsibility shouldered by your art! That’s what being a neighbor, a friend, and hell, a citizen is for!!!
