The LIHFS did a little fencing demonstration at a local block party this weekend, and I was asked to participate. Had a ton of fun and the crowd was really great. Here’s hoping this becomes an annual event! I’m the fat purple thing.

I discovered something that feels deeply embarrassing at saber class last night. I’m apparently a better fencer while singing. Never beating the aged theater kid allegations.

You ever write a short story for a contest and get it done JUST under the wire only to discover that the deadline time was in a time zone that’s like 8 hours ahead of yours? Stings a little.

Occult is easily one of my favorite horror movies, and probably my favorite Shiraishi movie.

I was very excited to received this in the mail today! And look it’s my girl, Ruth!! Being a part of the Miscreant Anthology was really fun and it was an absolute honor to be able to show my art in it #Art
A picture of me holding a big black book, on the cover it says “Miscreant Anthology” Picture of my art inside the book that I was holding in the previous panel. The art depicts a lanky white woman, Ruth, wearing an old fashioned bed gown. She is standing at the top of some stairs while she is surrounded be eerie paintings that is covered in darkness. The piece is in Black and White

Personally, if I were one of the Third Way ghouls who helped to hollow out labor, vilify the poor (especially when they’re black), and lay the ground work for furthering private profit over public good, I would shut the fuck up when a new era of young politicians attempted to revive my party.

Friends...it's the start of Pride Month, so I'd like you to meet the amazing ribbon eel. Ribbon eels (likely) all start out male & then all become female later in life. And they rock both ways.

Little screenshot from a great exchange at longsword class today. I baited my opponent into a change through and nailed the thrust on his torso. He got me with an afterblow to the leg, though with the ruleset we had going it was my point. He proceeded to give me a tracheotomy for the win.

The artists we consider masters often considered themselves students right up until the hour of their death. Hokusai did four separate versions of the Great Wave Off Kanagawa over the course of 40 years and only after the final version did he think he BEGAN to grasp the things he was capturing.
