I had a really nice weekend and I'm grateful my apartment is a nice cozy space when the weather sucks. Today I made chocolate syrup from scratch (not pictured), worked on Craft Gator goodies, had a twitch streamer up, made soup, and watched a scary movie. This is the shit I was made for

A Nazi (2026)

important

snowmen and donuts

I've personified this phone and really am going to miss it, even if it's just going to my partner. So many memories captured on this pastel purple rectangle 😭

I got to re-dress two mannequins at work today. I like to think they're dating, or at least besties

🐾 raffling a couple of these off to have some more finished examples! just leave a ref down below and i'll pick a couple critters tomorrow! -- #furry #therian #furryart #furryartist #furryYCH #chibi #chibiYCH #furrychibi

I can't wait to see how many of these white nationalist bozos had pedo charges or other criminal records!

Birthday Goblin pt 1

Finally got dried squid AND ate some. It's so unbelievably sweet to me so I made a dipping sauce

Solidifying birthday plans and I'm so stoked! Gonna try another hot pot place (third year in a row) but this one is closest to the apartment for less distance to travel in order to change into comfy pants asap after dinner lol

Big accomplishments today!

FINALLY done with all the holiday bullshit both at work and with real life, so Craft Gator gets to pick back up for the weekends! New design dropping today is called Deadly Nights. Check out the tiny chainsaw charms 🥰 $30 + shipping, or free pickup if you're in the Madison area!

I think my back just downloaded better posture and it hurts so bad. I'm hoping this is my body continuing to undo the years of stress that have slowly crumpled me into a shrimp with a hump.

Got my Meat Canyon butcher shirt in today! No pics wearing it yet because I look like hell rn, but the packaging is so cute

thoughts.

I love 70% off day, got all four of these for under $20 babyyyyy

I solved the 'it's still the Year of the Snake, but everyone thinks it's Year of the Horse' problem. It's now the month of the Snorse. #sygnin

Woke up from a 2 hour nap and I feel a lot better. Then I remembered I finished my research for unbound Hoopa when I beat Giovanni too so I switched em over

Did too much going out for lunch.. I was nauseous the whole way home because of how bumpy the frozen roads are, plus being full of food and achy sore.

I worked 48 hours at work this week and I'm so sore lol. This morning I decided to accomplish something that didnt require physically getting off my couch. Beating Giovanni for the first time unlocked like.. 8 different research tasks

What the hell did I miss in the news?? I get in here this morning and there's a wall of like 5 talking points but none of them are telling me what happened

Working on specializing the move sets for my battle buddies, so when I have dual typing I can have one solid pokemon for each type. I've been naming them based on their movesets, but Boulder is literally 2ft taller than her short king Steel

Lowkey an emotional mess from the S2 finale of Fionna and Cake. Adventure Time is almost 15 years old and I'm watching these same characters making huge life choices 😭

Had a coworker inform me that they discovered TWRP recently. Oh! OHOHOHO! I shall shape and mold this man's brain properly

I really wanted to draw this goober in one of her Christmas outfits

Other thoughts I'm having right now: 1. My houseplant care is very goblin-coded. I make compost, decorate with rocks and bones, and prop plants in food containers. 2. I love ordering or making stinky versions of foods. Give me your funky, umami-rich toppings or fillings 90% of the time.

I've gotten some self-indulgent stuff done today. I prepped these seeds from the rosehips off my partners grandmas rosebushes, then repotted a plant trapped in a vase. We paid postage to send my aunt a card in Sweden, and I ordered more supplies. Now, I'm waiting for nail polish to dry.

Pepper Minty 🖤❤️🤍 #art

Sometimes Christmas miracles do happen. I didn't see either parent or my siblings, and there was no drama the entire trip!

Shout out to my partner for being a cute little goober who makes me laugh

So I overcooked my turkey in the crockpot today and it basically shreds apart. Some leftovers will definitely be getting used for a festive shredded meat sandwich topped with leftover cheese fondue and a cranberry compote. After that, maybe I'll try making a turkey meat pâté.

I made cheese fondue tonight for dinner and it was a big success imo

Deer God, I spent 13 hours on my feet today and o ly realized I had a blister on my big toe once I was honestly and had already showered. Xmas shopping is done, Xmas crafting should only take a couple hours, and then I need to wrap everything up to be done with it all.

Oooooh I just gathered up at least 10lbs of clothes I could drop off tomorrow to the clothing swap area at the big gay craft market. Don't get me wrong, St Vinnys is great, but being able to give free clothes directly to my own community feels even better.

Finding out that one of my super quiet coworkers is actually a corporate business baddie on a break is pretty rad.

New Illustration: "We Beat 'Em Before..." Taken from a British WW2 poster, the original features a WW1 German soldier at the top. I just swapped it for the Nazi soldier it had at the bottom.

Amazing character redesign thanks to @angelsellsart.bsky.social No longer having someone's character that was stolen and re-sold to me, Katy is all mine now with her new look!

*queues up Crab Rave* I think this event is closest to my bday and I'm stoked lol

I know the odds are 5% right now but wtf. One big baby and one small baby

Sold the design I posted earlier today, but I did knock out a set of bootchains with some vintage brass bells on them that are also for sale! They sound great and I probably won't be able to perfectly replicate them because the bells were thrifted.

Running Through the Woods, my third bootchain set, is ready for purchase! There's a leaf missing in the photos that I'm adding once I get this post made, so that empty spot won't be there. $30 + shipping or free local pickup!

Yall, pray for me that I didn't ruin this roast

Never have I ever had to call off work because my legs and back hurt too much. I had to leave early yesterday because all of a sudden, I just couldn't walk at a brisk pace anymore. My muscles were hot and searing with pain all the way down to the tops of my feet. Be nice to holiday workers please.

My eternal gripe on something that's strangely divisive is that FUPA does NOT mean "lower belly", but the pubic fat area, AKA the mons pubis. You don't need to have a larger belly to have one, either-- nor do you always get a FUPA when you're fat. Lower bellies are great! But they aren't FUPAs!!

only the essentials

Acknowledging that I'm definitely in survival mode until the Holiday season is over. I'm having a hard time working on stuff for Craft Gator, responding to friends, or being present in general. That being said, I finalized another bootchain design today and caught up on media being sent to me.

My new hats, the extra strong maple syrup, and a couple of knuckleheads waiting for pizza yesterday. Not pictured is the bag of fondue blend cheese we bought for later
