Bluey with mickey ears just feels wrong on a lot of levels, not gonna to lie (aside from how funny it is to fly from australia and see bluey merch in disneyland) It just feels......dirty.

Trying not to melt while at Disney with multiple days of 35-40c weather (95-105f) Kids are still having fun though. Lots of breaks, water, cooling towels, and hopefully fun memories. Never been during halloween either, love the decor really

Alright well i might have gone crazy buying a bunch of kingdom hearts merch while I've been here but it's so hard to find this stuff in Australia for cheap 😭

Was it worth getting a Bahamut took 12 hours of tattooing over 2 days, including in my knee ditch and down to my ankle. I think so. Did it hurt? Yes 😭 (Another awesome tattoo from Kris at Amity Tattoo in San Diego)

It's an old viscount from the 70s! I had redone the inside last year but appears i didn't seal some things last time. For now just filling with marine gap filler since it's a cheap thing heh. Went inside to prep and noticed a huge damage area and ripped it all out T_T Rest looks alright though heh

Today in "things i can just fix myself" the wood heater would make noise trying any fan speed besides low. Took it apart and cleaned and tested the switch (works) and then took apart the motor, cleaned off the fan itself, etc. Works great now and assumed the 15 years of dust and dirt didn't help

Picture of the bottom half of the ultimate wood heater with the fan assembly taken out of the bottom where you can see wires

Look i was already excited at the Distance Worlds concert but also doing hymn of the fayth, including with an incredible soloist, as well as suteki da ne with the original singer (Rikki) basically broke me. INCREDIBLE

Incredible so far, great song choices and amazing musicians

I might have to try drawing Splatoon characters again. There's a lot of really cute art in the game (even small stuff) and their new looks for Frye/Shiver are great. The designs overall are neato

Microsoft talking about hardware component prices in their "Xbox is more expensive" announcement

Screenshot from A TV show of a man dressed in a hot dog costume from the meme"We're All Trying To Find The Guy Who Did This" is a quote from the Netflix sketch comedy series I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson. The quote originates from a sketch where an unnamed man in a hot dog costume tries to pretend he is not the one who has crashed a hot dog-shaped car. The image of the man in the costume was widely used as a reaction image on Twitter and other websites in 2020 and early 2021, typically in response to complaints about problems from the people responsible for those problems."

It's a really neat feature that Unreal Engine pushes you to take regular breaks throughout your day when working in it like when the Nintendo Wii used to do that but I like the way Nintendo's UI looked better tbh

a screenshot from Wii Sports of an open window with a Nintendo Wii Nunchuk sitting on a table with the text "Why not take a break? You can pause the game by pressing the + (button)"

Insane behaviour to say this in the first place by a party but equally confounding that this is a serious party at all (and that anyone would vote for them?)

Text from news article reading:

"When asked if the measure also applied to permanent residents who were not citizens, One Nation MP Barnaby Joyce said they would also be forced to divest their properties.

"Become an Australian citizen, and that's going to deal with the issue, right? Become an Australian citizen," he told Sky News on Thursday night.

Mr Joyce later conducted a second interview on Sky, in which he backtracked from his earlier comments and confirmed the party's policy did not extend to permanent residents.

"On further investigation and discussions with One Nation, no, we are not going to be kicking permanent residents out of their house," he said."

Kiddo requested a cat so I'm guess I'm making another friend, about as big as the bunny i made (so this is like, grapefruit size)

Trying to make a cat from the bunny pattern i just made and damn ears are hard. I'm using smaller needle and yarn thigh so this will be like, half the size of the bunny

The coaster things were based on these so imagine these but like, not as well made (kids love them though)

JayMFernandes @jaymfernandes.bsky.social · 25/05/2026

Made a couple of goofy squished lizard crochet coaster things and now trying to make a bigger stuffy (bigger yarn/needle), we'll see how it goes Phone for reference, this is half it's head 😅 Getting a lot faster now, this is basically an hour or two

Playing random music from my personal library and a song from my old (solo) band project came on that I probably haven't heard in 10+ years..... and it's kind of a banger?? (though with some questionable drum/mix choices...) Like, I was actually enjoying myself listening bc I forgot all about it

JayMFernandes @jaymfernandes.bsky.social · 07/05/2026

It's raining and cold so instead of sitting in my freezing office I'm going to sit next to the fire and make music for my game instead today. Will probably get some other instruments but this is easier to move around than my guitar and piano and computer heh Bonus: cat
