am i back or is this another of my many tricks?

Prolly gonna have to redo the intro specs sheet. Also I need to find a pfp that’s not Halloween 2017 (yikes)

so here’s what you missed on glee in no particular order: • I went to Iceland! • I moved • I got a raise! • I experienced grief • I went on a retreat • I got promoted at work • I lost my ID • I read three books! • I lost another family member • I ate shark Soo that’s what I’ve been up to.

Oof sorry for the radio silence; since the post election “fuck this fuck you” era set in, I’ve had a bunch of pre-Iceland trip planning, packing for the jan1 move, and freelance & 9 to 5 nonsense to work through. Oh, also I’m now 28. Yay, one year closer to returning to earth’s loving embrace.

Well this is frankly devastating. I do not want to talk about it.

idk what kind of cloud is rising from my apartment and shrouding my tiny porch in godly vibes, but it does make it feel a bit like I’m sitting on Olympus

ok another side quest craft!

The cross stitch project has been paused bc ma and I are knitting matching hats. Won’t take long, we’re working with with double worsted and the colors work together so well!

iiiiii think i wanna start listening to the Magnus Archives??? But I haven’t finished my other podcast yet :P

the bestie: what do you mean you’re breaking out with acne??we’re almost thirty??? me: yeah idk, i’m just telling you what’s happening the bestie: ok well what’s your face care routine? me: … so when im in the shower i put soap on my face and then kinda waterboard myself until i feel it’s clean

I started watching Apothecary Diaries and I’m living for the way this tiny poison sherlock has got the bbygirl “eunuch” in a CONSTANT tizzy

I just made a starter pack for freelance writers & journalists of color, b/c it's rough as AF in news media right now. Please let me know if you want to be added or taken off. And spread the word #freelance #writersofcolor go.bsky.app/R9KTLop

I’m being dramatic though, I love this tiny press of non speaking neurodivo authors and I will do anything for them, anything they want, call me genie bc I live to make their dreams come true 🥹

a book designer’s horror story: “Hey, I know the back cover’s already full of quotes, but can you add this four line quote? :)”

progress is progressing! 🧶 The count is off 😭 The lettering is off by one to the right so the bones aren’t exactly where they should be but I think this is one of those mistakes only I will notice. But I will notice. And it does bug me🥲

starting to see posts prescribing how to properly reply to people on this app and lemme just say… i didn’t figure it out for the last five social media apps, so i wouldn’t expect me to figure it out on this one. if i see something neat, im gonna say so, and it will be awkward & genuine & me-ish

i’m not a photographer but post first snow ironwoods(? i think) are so gorgeous, you don’t even need skill to appreciate ‘em ♡

🌈✨ Spooky pastel skulls

Reading this VTuber’s oc (? Persona?) lore is making me want to make one😅

and we’re changing it back again bc i got paid and im less irritated with capitalism

Everyone is sharing their most popular artwork so I guess I should too! This Cult of the Lamb fanart I made really blew up.

Oof the pfp is not representative of my current vibe. Hang tight for an update

👀👀👀 I am so intrigued what a fortuitous day to both stumble across really awesome comics & also have found an extra wad of cash in my dryer quoting this so i can return to it after work and check it out

where the heck is my project thread, ugh

me and my tiny ass hands are forever in awe of a great guitarist, also the video??? the ✨sound✨ everything about this is immaculate

the tree outside my window has become the most brilliant shade of gold. i love this season.

Aight I have pursued all my lil feeds and I fear I must return to work (job 1, round 2)

Thanks for the reminder! Will work on this for future posts ☺️

might do nanowrimo-esque shenanigans this year and if i do im quoting this to remind myself to consider playing with the relationship between character and narrator

quoting this to remind myself to come back and read this later (and share thoughts)

so, as you may not know cos I’m new to the app, i’m learning (casually, slowly) roughly 28 languages off and on. One of them is Portuguese, and there’s lots of Brazilian Portuguese on my feed! Very exciting to note that I can kinda sort of read a solid amount of it :)

For #InvisibleDisabilitiesWeek: One of my main #MECFS symptoms is multiple paresthesias (tingling). This #SciArt #symptomatology #embroidery maps the paresthesias in my face. 🐡🧪🩺🧶

someday i will either write a book or help someone design a book in which i will have the freedom to work with an artist to make really cool interior art that functions alongside and within the text (so not just end pages or section spreads) and that is when i will achieve my final form ◉‿◉

this art style 👀👀👀
