iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Telling someone to go away when they bring up a very real problem involving harassment and bullying is clown behavior. It's absolutely fair to critique the spaces we dwell in.

"2⭐ Motel" about 3" tall, acrylic and paint pens on reclaimed wood chair sculpture It's about how much goofy charm there is at really cheap motels. Roach roommates included! Watch for this piece at the #BLFC art show. Tiny wooden chair by @echomary.bsky.social

A tiny, rough hewn wooden chair. It is painted bright red and blue with black and white checkered stripes along the sides. A roach sits on a small painted pillow on the seat. A red coyote does a little silly dance on the back

"uvu I'm just a dumb widdle fledgling..." 7" diameter, spray paint (and others!) on scrap circular saw blade. Metalwork by @echomary.bsky.social You know we couldn't take ourselves too seriously. You know I had to. The googly eye fit *just right*.

It was so funny seeing how quickly thigns can change in the 1 week that passed between him posting the video and Mar and I finding the same spot! All the boletes had become goo but the video didn't have any of the honeys! I love our autumn foraging sooooooooo much ;^;

Maranda and I went out to aimlessly drive into the woods because I wanted to be around some big trees, which we found, but we also came across a trail that a local mushroom educator had just made a video about and that we watched the night before! Funny serendipity.

I remember in 6th grade Social Studies, we had a long-term in-class project that consisted of making a model house and then RPing life. I thought the game must be a misrepresentation of real life because it was unfairly difficult to afford basic expenses. 🥹

"I Saw a Bird: Blue Jay" Approx. 7" across, scrap circular saw blade, copper, spray paint, and paint pen. Sold. Very pleased with this scruffy lad— it was snagged by a Patron before it even got to come to con! Stay tuned for more birds, though. ♥️ Suggestions for other saw birds always welcome.

I have one plant left in the ground, some weird genetic abberation that's funny looking and 2-3 weeks behind the other two, and I'm curious how it'll develop as autumn continues. I also went ahead and got some CBD autoflowers to grow inside over winter! Exciting stuff :3

Echo Mary @echomary.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

We'll hopefully have the school bus greenhouse operational by then too, so that the rains don't force me to cut them down early. These two were close but I'd say they're only like 80% finished still. Better that all my previous years but not optimal!

Echo Mary @echomary.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

These two plants really impressed me. One of them has the densest buds I've grown in years, maybe since I was doing indoor grows, and the other one is SO frosty. I'm glad that I pollinated both of them with a closely related male plant so I can replicate this next year, but with more than just two!

Echo Mary @echomary.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Cut down two of the three marijuana plants today. Seems like my plans of crossing genetics back and forth between photoperiod and autoflower plants has successfully given me plants that don't lack in yield and potency and aroma, but that finish a good 3 weeks sooner than they otherwise might!

The Heritage Foundation laid out how they were going to rescind Title IX, the law that prohibits sex discrimination in education, by first targeting trans people's participation in sport. Capitulating on the human rights of transgender people is catastrophically falling at the first hurdle.

The only times that psychedelics provided a lasting therapeutic effect for my trauma was when, after years of therapy, I used my therapy tools during a trip and the drugs made it happen easier. But they didn't do the work FOR me, I had already been doing the work for years and that's what did it.

This is a statement that may cause discomfort and not even for inherently bad reasons but I promise you as a Jewish woman who’s been to Israel and spoken with Israelis this is just a fact. The vast majority of Israelis do not believe Palestinians are equal humans to them.

(A little funny to say this because it's not even like I'm particularly social at cons. I'm generally overstimmed and tired from working because I'm vending. But the socializing I do get with friends and acquaintances whom I appreciate and admire goes a long way in my heart)

convention settings are a major source of socializing for me, and every time I'm here, it occurs to me how much more of myself I feel connected to via connection with others. I don't miss it when I'm back home and feel differently, but it is important and meaningful to me.
