Went to work and got Winamp'd damn.

Listen, can I be petty for a second? Tom or Lori? What? Hey, it matters!

oofta, new job fucked me up today. Perro, I'm old as fuck. I got so bits I didn't even know could be sore. Anywho, I'm canning beans with bacon today! Huzzah kitchen science!

Gonna can some beans tonight, I cannot tell you how much learning new kitchen sciences has done to improve my mental health. Never thought I'd be the kinda guy who pickles, cans & makes his own bread & wine. Life takes you weird places, who we were 6 years ago can be so beautifully different today.

me all day today while working: 🎶Debí tirar más fotos de cuando te tuve Debí darte más besos y abrazos las veces que pude🎶

Snows melting away, temps are warming up. Soon I'll get to go for my daily community clean up walks looking for trash to throw away and stray glass to make into jewelry. That's the life that brings me joy. also...kilt season.

I don't care how bad it gets, I'll stop fighting and trying to make the world better when the universe decides to physically remove my bleeding, malodorous husk from its stage. Until then. Fuck you. I'm gonna keep going. Optimism is the violence I will choose every single day.

Made some bread, racked down some mead and cleaned my kitchen, think I am going to stream for a bit. if you need a place to hang out, I'll be gaming for a few hours! Cheers! twitch.tv/punklenix

Peanut butter gives me the queasy!?!?! Oh fuck you lack of a gallbladder, that's just mean.

Still working towards this months bills. If you're in the market for some gaming glassware and would be interested in helping a crafter survive. I have these Art Deco D20 scotch glasses in stock! cheers! ko-fi.com/s/26b0dbb1d1

a fuckin cheeseburger.

From the Wayback Machine ~13 years ago I did this custom order Buffy the Vampire Slayer mug set. Funny side story, due to what I assume to be some sort of hilarious 3 Stooges incident, the client recieved my original packaging but inside was a presssure cooker. 🤷

another 2 fraudulent donations to my Ko-Fi this morning. Hurray! You know, as a certified poor, just out here trying to make ends meet. This shit is beyond demoralizing. fuck.

Soon...

My commissions are open! I have 2 slots available for color commissions and 2 slots for sketches/line art. Feel free to shoot me a DM here or on discord if you're interested in claiming a slot (and bear in mind I do offer payment plans!)

Getting used to the new normal with the super early morning shifts. Sleep is gonna be weird for a while. Still trying to make it through the last of my bills for the month. I took down the support goal because it felt like E-begging, I would rather just sell my wares. ko-fi.com/s/961a7a3266

Day one of new job training done. Day two coming soon. Hoping everything goes smooth transitioning my finances, but me and smooth are rarely on the same page these days. No matter, I'm thankful for what I got. How it plays out is how it plays out, I'll roll with it and find a way to get it done.

From the not so Wayback Machine- 2 years ago I did a small run of Sea of Thieves themed mugs. When they first adapted the Guilds we were so excited. Joined under the banner of the Black Coast Vanguard, we had many an adventure! I love doing complicated large pieces like this.

Hoping to maybe start that fancy glass Domino set project maybe in March or April. I need a good project.

From the Wayback Machine-13 years ago I made a set of LotR mugs. Cause the only brew for the brave and true...

goddamnit these fraudulent donations to my kofi page are getting fucking beyond frustrating.

just hang on to something, even if it's the thinnest thread of joy. it'll help you find your way home again after the storm has passed.

havin a smuckers jar of homemade wine. I'll be an old mountain goat till the day I die.

I fucking despise Bob Dylan and it has nothing to do with Bob Dylan. Anyone else got some shit like that goin for them too?

My opulent thingamabob, were I a rich man? Mini M&M's in a fancy peppermill for coffee and desert toppings.

Pending – Chapter Thirty-Eight Catch up on the previous chapters here Ben’s lawyer took off his glasses—rimless, quite thin, possibly worn only for theatrics such as this—and took his time polishing them. Seriously, they didn’t merit all this attention. The flourish with the polishing cloth, the…

Floating my finances to make sure there is no gap between this months bills and the new paychecks once they start. If anyone is in the market for some bits & artsy bobs, come on down and check out the shop space at my Ko-Fi. Cheers! ko-fi.com/mcetching

They expect us to walk the edge of a knife and maintain our composure, be thankful and mind the status quo. Fuck, all we want to do is just get by and not die.

🎶 I've got an appointment with a Physiatrist baby, come with me Friday don't say maybe. I'm just a mid-life dirtbag baby like you.🎶

New part time job orientation tonight. Been a hot minute since I was employed by someone else. This doesn't mean the dream is dead. This isn't my first rodeo. You do what you gotta do to keep the dream alive. In the face of all the weight in the universe pressing in on you. you endure, you survive.

Gonna be streaming some games and chatting for a bit today. Come on by and say hi if you need a chill space to hang out! Twitch.tv/punklenix

Honestly, if I had the disposable income. My opulent thingamabob would be a round/oval TV to watch films and shows with older aspect ratios on.

From the Wayback machine~ I don't know, seems like I was doin' a lot of LoZ stuff 12 years ago lol. Hand cut resist and etched with a sandblaster. I love doing goblets. Hey! I'm starting my new part time job soon & with sales this low I'm worried about carrying my bills between income sources. ~

Playin some games and doin some crafts. Live over on the purple place if you need a place to chill. Come on by and say hi! twitch.tv/punklenix

11 hr crafting/gaming stream. Got a ton of work done. If anyones interested in some baubles or barware, I'm trying to make sure I got my finances set to bridge the gap between first of the month and my first paycheck from the new part time job. Got lots of shinys for sale! ko-fi.com/mcetching

Gonna be live for a while today working on these bottles for my mead making and playing some games! Feel free to stop by and say hi! twitch.tv/punklenix

Going live to take a break from chores and work to try out the new season of Deep Rock Galactic!

Pondering the opportunities this new part time employment will afford. Like hitting up @fridaytea.com for some of that Double Cream Earl Grey in an effort to answer the burning question...Will it mead? 🤔

From the Wayback Machine- 12 years ago, a couple of custom orders from clients I had back in the Etsy days. If you'd like your own shiny baubles, I could use the work to bridge the gap between Feb first of the month bills & first paycheck from the new part time job. ko-fi.com/mcetching/

never been a beer guy, but with the mead brewing I'm thinking of bottling in 12oz bottles so that I could theoretically have those "hey, wanna beer?" moments. Living alone is great for me mentally, but we still need those platonic connections. Now I just need to get my hands on a bottle capper

Taking a break from sandblasting and shipping. Gonna go live for a while over on Twitch. If you need a chill place to hang out, come on by and say hi!

Pending – Chapter Twenty-Eight Catch up on the previous chapters here Ben hadn’t slept. He couldn’t. It wasn’t an apartment building but a duplex, and the number clearly designated her as living on the top floor, and there’d been lights on up there. People moving around—two of them, one of them…

Hey, I got that part time job. 💜

The El Camino was the mullet of automobiles. Send Post.

Going live to work on a couple orders, maybe some more of these mead bottles then some games? If you need a chill space on this cold Monday morning, come on by and say hi!
