Dear me: don’t buy a Stylophone on the same day you bought all the paper making supplies, because you must draw the line at 38 hobbies.

@misterprotocol.bsky.social you said you were going through some rough stuff - how are you doing? I am an internet rando but I care!

Pretty sure these are the only four

FIREFLY INTERLUDE I'm fortunate to have several species of these beetles in my backyard! When I first moved in, there were few, but some basic help has led to increases in their numbers. If you live in firefly territory, here's a great resource on how to help them: www.xerces.org/endangered-s...

Torn between drawing a million Steampunk embellishments on my OC orrrr totally streamlining the OC so I can doodle it fast and incessantly.

A few more... Heating the Outdoors by Marie-Andrée Gill - words that cover you in soft moss and wraps you in brambles A Witch's Guide to Burning by Aminder Dhaliwal - smoke, fire, and friendship to fill your heart Mr. Villain's Day Off by Yuu Morikawa - because everyone could use some self care

Here's a list of favs in case you need a little bookish escape... Service Model by Adrian Tchaikovsky - little robot does an oops and discovers things Noodles, Rice and Everything Spice: A Thai Comic Book Cookbook by Ce Witte/Kauppinen- a little history and a lot of yum!

I cleaned up, and put my bookbinding thread away, and now I need it, and it is instantly lost and the moral is I should never put things away

This spider came closer and closer and wanted to jump on me sooo badly I finally put my hand out and let it. And then it immediately jumped on, and off again, and I shouted “why did you do that”

Free shipping at the awesome Bookshop.org AND You Can Do Anything Magic Skeleton by @chuckwendig.bsky.social and myself is currently 1/2 off there! That beats AMZN's offer AND you get to support indie bookstores! 💖🏆💀✨ QRP with your book and/or a fav 📚

Bookshop .org is currently offering free shipping. If you were looking to get the hardcovers, this is MUCH BETTER than Amazon: they support independent bookstores with every sale (and you can even pick which local store to support). Get one here: bookshop.org/p/books/mask...

(1/2) Dreamed a space police woman came to get me for stealing a spaceship (which I had done) and I kept asking what I could do to lower my sentence, anyway I got away (with a spaceship) and got back to earth and she tracked me back,

I just realized you can buy a sea monkey college diploma and I want to frame one for my wall. Tagging @inscrutablemachine.bsky.social only because this is cracking me up.

Muahah etc.

Please feel free to imagine that if you meet me irl I am wearing this 🤣

Constant argument in My brain: You should produce media. Me: I want to consume media. Brain: but now produce media. Me: ok but what should I make? Brain: I dunno but just do it! Me: I will consume more media for ideas.

Ok on this silly @bskyttrpg.bsky.social I have a class label - should I pick an ancestry?

Imagine being a fantasy mage smith and creating amazing artifacts that will be fought over (and with) for centuries, but they all have stupid names because you weren't great at spelling or languages. "This blade is Orcrust, the Goblin Clover!"

Playing a Cyberdoc in our Cities Without Number game, I squicked everyone out with medical details - I call this a win. 🙌

Cool longboard wall art in my local brunch joint (they showcase local artists!)

All chickens in Finland wear little top hats and speak at least four languages. Kevin will love it.

Dreamed I was a robot trying to escape the system and hide in a society, and get the right of self repair. Found someone willing to get me a fake human id and a job & I was very excited. Except I don’t know how a fake id would help when I was obviously a robot; more like a Star Wars sort of droid.
