Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 15/09/2026Just got followed by some ai account where nobody even bother to fact-check how pizza works. 160
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 17/08/2026Tried actual paper and (brush)pen for the first time in a long time. Trying to re-teach myself that art doesn't have to be perfect and symmetrical and vectorizable. 0140
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 12/08/2026Getting some gaming downtime in this week while I rest my leg, so I made a new key presser out of pennies and duct tape. 090
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 12/08/2026AHHHHHH! I know it's just the primary, but superPAC money came in on the other side and WE BEAT IT! This never happens for my socialist ass. 2313
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 07/08/2026Another PSA-type art thing. Because I can. Because electoral politics are the worst but you have to vote to make them any better, and make your friends do it, too. Especially in the primaries. 0123
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 05/08/2026Both candidates previously said they wouldn't take PAC money. Then this happened and Aly Richards basically said "I don't know anything about it, I'm sure they'll follow the law." So...she WILL take PAC money. This kind. 241
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 31/07/2026Everybody is always making comparisons to 1984. This is the reference they actually need for the current situation. 1329
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 29/07/2026Not to be a cheese hipster, but there is objectively a best cheese and you probably haven't heard of it. An IYKYK cheese. 270
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 23/07/2026I...did not layer this hard enough to easily do that. But how do we feel about this? 110

Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 19/07/2026If I made this as a button, would anybody want one? By donation, obviously. Not looking to profit. Just spread some raccoon love. 0114
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 18/07/2026You can't expect me to pass up a sketch opportunity like Jimothy 0468
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 18/07/2026I don't usually mind a shower friend, but I do have some rules. 1. Maximum number of legs is 8 2. Do not exceed the speed limit 3. Absolutely no touching my feet. This little bastard broke all the rules today. He's a rebel. 7140
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 18/07/2026Whenever I'm like "I enjoy this artist even though they are outside my usual genres," it turns out (years later) to just be my gaydar working. Every time. Today I learned of another one. 150
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 14/07/2026This might be the first gender survey that really gets me. 1152
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 08/07/2026Sometimes people get stuck on the folding step, so I made this gif a few years ago. 06116
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 25/06/2026All this to say, I was forced into my first interaction with the Victoria's Secret ai "support" bot, and it is unhinged. 130

Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 09/06/2026Books written by no one, for no one. This sort of thing really confirms my decision to pull all my books from Amazon. 161
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 02/06/2026Happy Pride to this story about Dave Van Ronk, who was eating dinner at a restaurant, heard the Stonewall Riot start, and went out to throw a brick on general principal. 0153
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 30/05/2026Unearthed the ukulele today, and it had been in the case for so long that the poor fretboard was dry as kindling. So naturally I am now driving the neighbors up the wall, getting some human oil on it. (They probably can't hear it. I mean, it's a uke. They can't hear it, right?) 080
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 23/05/2026I have quit Prime and tried to order elsewhere, but there's no Sally's near me, so I resorted to Amazon for hair dye supplies. Which resulted in this. Excuse me, but WHAT. 470
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 18/05/2026Damn, I was really hoping that somehow they would both lose. 2151
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 16/05/2026...I think I just found a small carnivore tooth in the driveway? Today has been a strange day. 010

Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 14/05/2026Car work today. Using my phone as a scope to see under the skirt and find out what the last guy did wrong. See if you can spot it. 😑 390
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 01/05/2026I have sketched a canvas but the fear of paint I've mysteriously developed seems to persist. 020
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 27/04/2026RESISTANCE IS FUTILE (Sorry, the guy in reception had a Star Trek pin on, I couldn't not do this. It's just an annual checkup.) 1190
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 23/04/2026TIL that those magic eraser things work wonders on Converse 2150
Kestrel Casey @kestrelcasey.com · 23/04/2026Went home with my prize. Mildly distressing that the same Juniors XS shorts that fit the plastic teenager are the perfect size, but my body is what it is, and not only are they comfy as hell, but if anyone ever asks where I got them, I get to say I fought a mannequin for them and won. 3191
![Van Ronk was among 13 people arrested at the Stonewall Inn June 28, 1969, the night of the Stonewall Riots, which is widely credited as the spark of the contemporary gay rights movement. He had been dining at a neighboring restaurant and joined the riot against the police occupation of the club and was dragged from the crowd into the building by police deputy inspector Seymour Pine.[11][12][13] The police slapped and punched Van Ronk to the point of near unconsciousness, handcuffed him to a radiator near the doorway, and charged him with assault.[14] Recalling the expanding riot, Van Ronk said, "There were more people out there [outside the building] when I came out than when I went in. Things were still flying through the air, cacophony—I mean, just screaming and yelling, sirens, strobe lights, the whole spaghetti."[15] The next day, he was arrested and later released on his own recognizance for having thrown a heavy object at a police officer.[16] City records show he was charged with felony assault in the second degree[17] and pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of harassment, classified in 1969 as a violation under PL 240.25.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:eg67bvrxrcfdeefijazb7mw4/bafkreidtphrvnpkvxh6t2tiwpoqcoiiiho2rlox5gvuvicjlm3ov66bm3i)
