exciting. my new acquisition is on top, and you can see the number of golden tips and length of the leaves compared to even my imperial grade in the middle or premium grade at the bottom

three grades of keemun tea, with the best one on top. the number of golden tips difference and quality of the leaves is acutely visible

Upset to think Moonmilk is Ilya's alternate (earthside) scent and I didn't pick it up while I was there because I couldn't smell it well enough on the blotter when it comes out great on skin. I originally thought it was Bois Imperial but...damn

because both of the people that hit on me during vacation had golden eyes and tried to stop me from going home, I'm now creating a mythology for myself where they were a god there to tempt me

TheEFAF @efaf.hanby.design · 02/10/2026

the gulf that's opened between where I am now and my past is so wide that at points I can get giddy at the thought of twisting my old pains up into new story entertainments. a fun toy in my hands, despite the blood shed. I can't believe it could be like this without losing myself, yet here we are

I deleted my stuff off Tapas a couple years ago and requested if they could send my $8.25 in "ink" to me even if it didn't meet payout thresholds and they said no. Now today I thought, "hey maybe they will now!" The ink has been deleted, lmao. When did everyone's opinion turn around on Tapas fr

every tea shop I go to I ask for their keemuns and this time I think I found The One™️. every night I think I'm fooling myself that it's so different and every night I have another cup and go "no, that's it! that's the one I've been looking for!" so, I ordered half a kilogram of it.

I can't believe my favorite photo of myself from the trip was on the film camera and it has a condensation blur. I guess that's the beauty of film huh?

leaving helsinki by boat. there's a god damn blur blob right over the city. I'm clear though so! I guess it is what it is!!

someone at the convention tried to make me upset that fujoshis would be all about T&I and I thought it was very strange that a woman would try to speak for me. I told her it was not my business what my audience is or does, only that I tell my own story how I wanted as best as I could

george doing the camping shower at the track makes me think about that part in lieutenant hornblower where hornblower asks to get hosed down on deck (a strange frivolity!) and then bush feels an odd prick along his skin and heat under his shirt as he watches hornblower turn under the stream of water

someone at this show just compared my art to naoki urasawa's and 🙌 that's it, pure success fam

I just had an idea that involves drawing a shitton of flowers and WHY do I do this to myself

000

anyway, maybe next year I can finally get a quote for melting the damn thing down into a nice new pendant necklace

I bought my wedding rings since my ex was unemployed, so being poor I had to buy the cheapest gold rings available. When things got better I would bring up wanting a more stylish ring and he'd always say he didn't. I went along because I felt like it was negative symbolism to have mismatching rings

ahh, just a couple weeks too early to grab a copy of the helsingin sanomat with kimi and ace on the cover while I was there...

I was slightly too early for true autumn but it was still the perfect temperature

I found out Down is back and releasing a new album next month by chance poking through Levykauppa Äx's website. Took me straight back to the station when Over the Under released, looking at the back of the album and seeing this song circled by a member as one of its standout tracks. And it is.

I DON'T think you understand how obsessed I am with Finnish forests at this very moment. like this forest will eat me alive without remorse if allowed and my flesh will become the carpet of moss

mushrooms in Nuuksio. did you know I saw a whole coven of witches, all dressed the same, spread out into the forest looking for mushrooms? yes.

this grove of birch trees is overseen by the fae and you can simply tell

in retrospect, Downforce was ALSO some kind of thing that appeared to get my life back on track, except this time I was prepared for the concept. therapy through creation and all that jazz.

I think Mira's playlist is a real banger still, maybe because she alone has the type of songs nobody else can pull from my library

a year ago this one came on and I was offhandedly about to fit it into Downforce when I remembered it was already a Mira song. in my defense, it's a very good song holding the tension of intentionally going off the rails

thinking about Pryce's purpose and what he really means to me, and the new stage my life is in, I could totally bring him back. there's a whole new story in there. it might not make sense to you when you see it, but it makes sense to me. you might have to wait 10 years but I can feel it happening

the new Mastodon album is absolutely killer but regardless of it all I still miss Brent Hinds' voice. he was in my top five favorite voices in all of music for a reason. either way he wouldn't have been on this album but fuck, man

for once Dante came home immediately and Quincy tried to evade me, but I had saved. 300 pulls later, at max pity, Quincy was in hand regardless of his efforts. I am inexorable

new Dante: dressed in a firesuit, helmet and race flag in hand

new Quincy: the same. And I will not be denied my race car driver Quincy
