I can't believe it has been this long. I remember waiting impatiently for the raw to finish downloading a couple hours after airing. PGSM will always hold a special place in my heart

I am on my knees begging companies to make cute sheets for queen+ beds. Every sheet set in stores is solid darker colors or florals. Where are my stars, my Pokémon, my dinosaurs. Please, I need whimsy

I've had to unfriend a few fans lately, all for the same reason. They made ridiculing, unkind, and in some cases outright cruel comments about pictures I posted of young women cosplaying Jessica. 
More than a person, Jessica is a state of mind. To play Jessica, you need self -confidence, a sense of humor, and a Jessican -attitude-. There is no such thing as a Jessica cosplayer being too short, too flat chested, too heavy, too thin, too unattractive, too black, too Asian, or even too male!!! All Jessica, any Jessica, every Jessica is good Jessica. 
I'm not giving any warnings or second chances. A single disparaging comment on a Jessica cosplayer, and I'm throwing you out of the rainbow colored Toontown Tent.

I finally gave up fighting with it to focus on Tekko prep, but I wish there was someone I could have show me "this is what it should be like, this is what this part does". All the videos I could find were vague,"it's a feeling" stuff rip.

We were gifted a 3d printer a few years back and finally made space to get it set up and like...the absolute headache of figuring out how to get it to actually print something is exhausting. Videos aren't actuslly helpful and without any frame of reference I can't tell what is a correct adjustment 🫠

Had a mind-blowingly good time at #anthrocon this weekend. Got to work with some fantastic #furry designs and my #commission queue (that never closes btw) is loaded with stuff im dying to get started on. I haven't been asked to draw in this many personal sketchbooks in well over a decade.

Mid day nap dream that we had a black striped, golden cat with the longest, fluffiest tail ever. Her name was Honey Bee & when I woke up I was 🥺 to realize she wasn't here. Tiny apartment means we've never adopted a floof but if the cat distribution system did its thing, we'd find a way 🐱🍯🐝

It was wonderful to meet you too! I loved chatting and working on your spray solidified my desire to offer customs at shows. I'll be sure to have plenty ready for you!

I had the privilege of making custom fursuit sprays for a lovely couple and the happiness they expressed made my entire weekend. This is truly such a warm hug community of people and I'm so excited to get more involved with it. #anthrocon

I'm set up in the artist alley at Anthrocon (#17) debuting my new fursuit sprays and plush commissions. The reception has been so good and the vibes are healing my heart. If you are around, please come by and say hi! #anthrocon #artistalley

Going out to eat pre-covid was one of my great joys but I just can't justify $50 for two for food that just isn't very good anymore. The prices went up, the quality went down, and now I'd rather gremlin some tortilla chips and a bag of shredded cheese 🥲

This is so cute and flattering, I looove this style of dress. I took a selfie recently and started an existential spiral and then was like...wait...we really aren't meant to see ourselves like this. This literally isn't what our eyes see. Phones are at a point where the clarity and detail is a flaw

I have to constantly remind myself, especially when drawing, that art should be fun. It is play. It doesn't have to be something I'll do something with. The act of creating is the whole point, and sharing "bad art" is just as important as sharing the mediums I'm good at. So for now, a silly lady.

Working on some new, fursona oriented plush patterns and doodled a little guy. It's weird sharing my drawings since I'm not an illustrator like Aaron, but I kind of need to get over that idea and draw more. I love cockatiel coloring.

Tapping the sign
r/trans

Seeing people deflate when I explain simple facts of my reality bums me out.

Vent

"No, I can't go on that cruise to Italy with you, because I'm struggling to get a passport that doesn't put me in danger. I'm scared I might have trouble getting home."

"Yes, I'm looking at other job opportunities/leaving my position working at school, which I love so much. It's becoming unsafe for people like me to work with children 
- I got a death threat the other day."

"Will the doctor/therapist/etc. you're recommending be safe for someone like me?"

"Before I meet your parents, I need to know if they know about me. Will I be safe?"

"I'm afraid I could be arrested if I travel to that state for your wedding and need to use the restroom at the venue, I'm sorry."

Seeing it actually register on people's faces that this is my life- that these policies are real and affect real people they know and love- is a really bitter pill. On one hand, it's sad to have to break such depressing news. And on the other hand, it feels so isolating and infuriating that people who love me apparently have no clue any of this is happening unless I take the time to inform them.

Just needed to get that out. Thanks for listening.

I was also shook when I learned this! They are designed to fit into any space but most landlords don't take the time to adjust them

Most fridges you can swap the side the door opens on! Look up your model and unless it's a weird one, you can just remove the hinges and swap it. Doesn't damage anything.

These ones are the Sp Multiliners, specifically the replaceable nibs for .2 😢 but I appreciate the thought

Ari @manifesteddreams.bsky.social · 07/04/2026
We just found out Copic discontinued the nibs for Aaron's favorite multiliners like 5yrs ago and he just ran out of his replacements. We have never found pens that worked as well with alcohol ink. I wish art supply stores would prioritize quality and reusability over cutting financial corners
