when my apple pencil is charged (why is it ALWAYS dead when I want to draw?) I WILL be drawing hot butch oluwande

having a "go to the dental urgent care first thing in the morning" situation and it's already giving me panic attacks because my insurance doesn't include dental and it is almost certainly going to be very expensive 🙃

everyone look at this absurdly perfect photo I just took in animal crossing. monarch butterfly was a paid actor

niche hater moment from me, but I absolutely hate that a brand I used to like that makes literature-inspired clothing and accessories has shifted focus from classic books (for kids and adults) to focusing heavily on booktok slop and other momentarily popular YA/romantasy books

my dad who wears two outfits (cold weather: Kirkland brand flannel shirt, jeans, socks, and sneakers; warm weather: t-shirt, Kirkland brand cargo shorts and socks, and Merrill hiking shoes) was NOT surprised when I was diagnosed, but WAS surprised when I said I clearly got it from him

Look at these precious boys. Check out the gorgeous art @edteachsbadknee.bsky.social made for me of Stede and gravy basket centaur Ed for my Stede Whump Week fic, Come Back to Me! 🥰 #OFMD archiveofourown.org/works/60283252

also belated post of very silly Shred (shark Ed) and Shtede (shark Stede) for @ghostalservice.bsky.social 🦈

One way I have found to mourn someone is to set up a monthly sustaining donation to a mutual aid effort they cared about. If you can join me in honoring Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social with a sustaining donation today, please do. Thank you Alice, and I will not let the bastards grind me down.

weird little medieval guys Ed and Stede for @spicymuppet.bsky.social !!

asking is tough, but i'm hanging on by a thread, my housing situation is imploding, and i'm struggling to afford groceries/meds/etc 😓 if anyone is able to contribute, every little bit would be a huge help to this queer trans person rn 🫂🫶 ko-fi.com/patcheschance

Rosy maple moth with umbrella 🎀

get a load of this thang (from Alexandre Petau’s book of hours). I am turning this into Ed right now

everyone let's examine Ed's costume in great detail together and notice things we've somehow never noticed before

just got an ad for some tummy hair removal thing and I'm sitting here like:

my bunch of library stuff I won in a raffle for signing a letter demanding library funding arrived today and I'm leaping around with glee. I fucking love the library AND now I have zines and stickers and postcards and other such fun things AND a cool almost perfectly spherical green rock

I love drawing these weird little medieval guys so much. I get to hit the weird little guys from my manuscripts with the blorboification beam

this post made me wikipedia my birthday to see what’s going on there (apparently I share a birthday with a mexican trampoline gymnast) but I also found out that an alarming number of bloody and terrible historical events have happened on my birthday

Check out these fantastic little guys @edteachsbadknee.bsky.social drew for me! I requested Ed and Stede as little guys you might find hanging out in a medieval haggadah and just look at them, they're intertwined 🥹💙

Liz, thank you so much. You actually pushed me to make a better graphic for this. 🧡 🧡

Jim and Archie for @the-widow-olivia.bsky.social !! they have mischievously energy in every universe <3

Hey #ofmdcraftfair friends: This email from @southernequality.bsky.social just made me cry a little bit. This is the work we made happen. Almost 10% of this was *us*- our show, our crafts, our hyping, our love. When things feel hopeless, when you feel powerless, remember: WE DID THIS. #ofmd

little medieval guys Ed and Stede for @veeagainsttheday.bsky.social !! did you know they are so in love with each other

Thinking Art Thoughts about these.....

this book that the rabbinical intern recommended to me has the kind of signature older paperback paper and font that says "oh yes this is a capital-B Book" if that makes any sense to anyone at all

get to know your mutuals! list 10 random things that you like -music that remixes traditional music like the halluci nation, daniel kahn, the hu, etc. -soups -learning dead languages -illuminated manuscripts -secondhand bookstores -bread -miniatures -lichens and fungi -frogs -horror movies

a bit behind on these due to My Evil Hands and Their Evil Joints revolting against the sudden very cold turn of the weather but, for everyone whose drawing I haven’t yet sent along, I am hoping to get all the outstanding ones done by this weekend!

BEHOLD! 🎣✨ #OurFlagMeansDeath #ofmd #ofmdfanart

Heads up, New York! ❤️👇

oh yes, it’s all coming together now

Today, I can finally share the rest of my Game Changer, "we've been here the whole time" stickers and pins, in a whopping 27 flag designs! Stickers: canopyrobin.etsy.com/listing/4333... Pins: canopyrobin.etsy.com/listing/4346... My endless thanks to @samreich.bsky.social for blessing these! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

gang, today I referenced the hash slinging slasher episode of SpongeBob (for Nosferatu reasons) and NONE of my students had seen it. NOT A SINGLE ONE.

I need to draw things but also my plans were derailed by the fact that it’s like freezing in my apartment due to the wind and my drafty ass windows. I can knit and type with my nice little fingerless gloves on but I cannot hold the slippery apple pencil

honestly I could listen to Brennan Lee Mulligan talk for ages. I don’t particularly care for the mythical kitchen dude but the new Last Meals episode with Brennan is so good

spoke with the executive director of my local food bank today and got this really incredible line: "if you donate 1 can of green beans, we can give away 1 can of green beans. but if you donate a dollar, we can give away 6 cans of green beans"

another year of Master Jeff without Jeff the Accountant 💔🥀

Finally!

I would like to start biting some very specific and important people

We have a ways to go to our goal but the next one is 5000 letters. Help us get there if you live in NYC and want increased and stable funding for our public libraries. Also, please ask other NYers to send a letter to the Council member too: actionnetwork.org/letters/city...

joel fry is in the harry potter audiobook thing 💔🥀 that actually sucks so bad. goodbye frenchie friday

Begging my US based friends to call your senators. My spouse had to call around one of our senators' lines to find a useable voicemail box. Try their other office lines if one isn't available!

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office. If you're represented by one of the squishier centrists, be sure to make a call. Now.

currently having maybe the worst day of my life, save me gay pirates

signed and shared a letter demanding the city council dedicate 0.5% of the budget to the library system and I did find myself winning a raffle for library swag 😎
