Beyond ready to NOT have half a dozen clients' worth of stuff cluttering up every literal and metaphorical corner of my life.

There is no reality in which I am not awake 'til 4am packing for any out-of-town gig.

Happy 20th birthday to Wolf Parade's APOLOGIES TO THE QUEEN MARY! I was so honoured to write the liner notes for the deluxe edition, released in 2016—which everyone should buy, if only for the reminder that you're the one-eyed feather (you're the lion's mane). wolfparade.bandcamp.com/album/apolog...

This thing doesn't fit me very well anymore. Time to de/re-construct? Add some kind of back-lacing? There's a photographer I want to do a cemetery shoot with, and this is the dress I want to do it in, but.. she needs work.

Made some more art yesterday.

I just saw an ad that told us to go ahead and take out a short term loan to buy snacks from a vending machine, so it seems like we’re doing pretty great as a society

Timeline cleanser 🐈

Have some cute Halloweeny doodles. HAVE THEM!

They'll make it work.

Safety and moderation features on the web looking me dead in the eye and saying 'Look How Safe You Are" but I'm just a plane full of bullet holes

YES YES YES YES FINALLY. 🌧️💙⛈️

🥲

Not as much of a fan of long hair on men as I used to be, but once in awhile I'll walk past a metalhead with the most gorgeous golden-brown longer-than-shoulder-length curls I've ever seen and it's like, send help, GodDAMN. 👁️🫦👁️

A day late and a dollar short to the whole Rapture thing, but as I was driving today I saw a dapper older gentleman in a top hat and suit riding his bicycle on the sidewalk. A little while later I was driving behind an SUV with a vanity license plate that read: REPENT.

Phew. Ok. Good. Already did that. I remember thinking it was stupid and annoying from the jump, and there was no way in hell I'd allow a bot to speak - unsolicited, with no oversight from me, and on my behalf - to people who are already following or supporting me. Like. No. A thousand times no.

..normally I'd wait to buy or borrow an audio version so I can work on something visual/tactile while I listen, but maybe I just need to go buy and read a physical book for the first time in years?

Rewatched my video from VIBF 2019 and it's such a deeply weird fan dance and my music taste is real good and I'm still so proud of this act and of this performance in particular. (Photo by Tom Gould.)

I know of a few artists that rent studios and I’m 10% bewildered how they afford it and 90% jealous

Stream's especially good tonight. Happening now!

There are gross children and gross adults coughing unmasked into every unventilated transit vehicle I've taken today and why is everyone acting like this ISN'T disgusting and unsafe.

Just finished listening through Cuckoo by @scumbelievable.bsky.social and what a fucking RIDE. Absolute top shelf cosmic/body horror whose terrifying allegorical implications will stay with me for a long time. I loved it. Maybe even more than Manhunt? Looking forward to Black Flame.

Had a nice moment, harvesting potatoes, digging one up and thinking "this is the biggest potato I've ever grown!" then digging up an even bigger potato and thinking "no, THIS is the biggest potato I've ever grown!!" ✨🥔✨

Thinking about her

What if I spent the rest of the year sliding back into debt by turning down paid work in favour of personal art projects. What if I just did that. As a treat.

Yes I ate it and yes it was delicious. (Photo by @laurelhart.bsky.social)

New photo drop on Patreon, including more unedited behind-the-scenes bonus content than usual.

At a Monday matinee of the Downton Abbey movie with the parents and nobody in this theatre (aside from me and my sister) is under 65 years old.

taps the sign impatiently

Got 3 free things for the kittens today: a cat tree, a cat tunnel, and a sprig of fresh catnip from the park. They enjoyed the catnip very much. They are ignoring the other two things completely.

Tbh the only thing that would ever compel me to buy a new iPhone at this point would be if they finally developed one that could take decent pictures of the moon.

Luna shed sometime in the afternoon immediately following all this nonsense, but I'm still counting it as another full moon shed. Third one this year. 🌕🤍🐍

Haven't felt this moody & gross or had to wash this much blood out of my clothes in literal YEARS. (Something-something full corn blood moon eclipse in Pisces something-something..) 🌝🌽🩸🔴♓️🌚

Behold our precious new adopted brother & sister duo: Arthur & Miss Moneypenny. 🖤🐾🤍

things that make me happy: gloomy weather

@fayehavoc.bsky.social we bought our own camera and immediately had to do some horse content.

Sometimes we must become the Guys we don't yet know.

The Beast didn't make it into the all-villains Halloween show our city's nerdlesque collective is producing this year. I'm a little disappointed but it opens me up for other random opportunities that sometimes pop up at the end of October.

"But I am a hater, and I will not be polite. The machine is disgusting and we should break it. The people who build it are vapid shit-eating cannibals glorifying ignorance. I strongly feel that this is an insult to life itself."

One of those days where I need to brew and consume a large pot of coffee at 9pm because (I have a headache and) I cut one panel of an asymmetrical silk bias bodysuit the wrong way around and I've clearly neither had enough caffeine to cope with, nor to have avoided making, this mistake.

the muse likes it when you bite her hand a little

I swear to God I need to go back to school and get an engineering degree or someshit to deal with drafting/sewing for my own tits beyond the age of 40.

Wow I hate lining things it's like having to make one garment for the same time and labour costs as two. 🫠

Imagine a world in which I learned how to do my make up the right way instead of just going on vibes

Looked at my calendar for the rest of the year and immediately deactivated my contact form on my website lol

Remember what they say, "Love what you do because you'll be working every day of your life."

What a headline!

I have had so many people dig their heels in and tell me "AI is not going anywhere", like can we dream just a little bigger folks
