Hahaha no emojis?!? You MONSTER! 🤣

Oh for sure. I answer the same way 100% of the time and I get looks like im the devil incarnate hahaha. I just think if youre gonna ask out of the blue expect a no and celebrate if you get a yes, most artists cant afford to trade!

Some nights I just sit and think about this guy. Truly probably now my favorite fish ever. I sat and watched him for no joke like 30 mins at a time multiple times during my animal kingdom visit. I just wanna go back and watch him do his fish zoomies.

Ugh the amount of ppl who try to trade amazon stickers for my stickers at cons is astounding. I straight up have a no trades policy unless im trying to buy something from another artist and they go "oh I was gonna buy x from you anyway" like thats fine. But the soliciting is so rough these days..

Hit 1500 yards (60 laps) during my swim today for the first time in at min a decade :) 150 of that was butterfly! So happy to have found a gym with a pool around here. I lose interest in "gym" so easily but swimming is such a love of mine. Helping with my asthma so much too :3

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

I always forget how good swimming laps feels until im like 200 yards in and no longer cold hahaha. I wish getting tattoos didnt get in the way of swimming but might stack some ink work back to back so im not out of the pool too long hahah I just want more art on my bodyyyy

Back into the fray. Been staying up at night cutting out tails to prep for blfc and pawcon. Gonna try my best to take a couple days off between now and con but i sold out of so much and i love having a big wall of tails and i don't wanna lose out on the rad visual hahah

000

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

Hahaah with how big the box is I could probably swim in them 🤣🤣

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

Sometimes you vegan too close to the sun and order 12lbs of soy curls. Now I need to figure out where to put them when they come in hahahahaha

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Already back to hella late nights of con prep. 18 days til blfc and having to restock like my entire tail inventory, asc wiped me tf out haha! Theres so much to do but gonna try my best to sneak in a few days off here and there.

I do a similar vibe with frozen shelled edamame when Im havin an anxiety day. Rice vin, soy, chili oil and if im feelin up for it I get single serve microwave sticky rice from Costco. 90 seconds to heat up so you dont have a chance to overthink! The edamame mix also stays good in the fridge for days

000

Just hit 300 subs on yt and im like....get ready for a whole lot of nothing yall hahahah I post shorts when I remember I can just recycle tiktoks 🤣🤣 ive gotta get better at social media.... i just love living in the moment and documenting shit takes me out of it

Man the 18+ dance at con was mid but my outfit was killer. Lace up leggings, the bathing suit laces up the sides tooooo. Wish I would have taken a full pic haha might wear to blfc but I also have tons of other fun new outfitsss

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

Busy feelin icky in my own skin relivin bad experiences because of one average looking white man with a polo and a receding hairline... literally have just slept the last two days away. Gonna try and do some work tonight to get back to me.

000

Thank youu. Yeah Ill be ok, just overwhelmed but I've got this:)

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

Con prep turned into a dumpster fire so I cut my and my partners hair instead. Feelin a bit better :) I always have a large stock, im just upset i couldn't restock absolutely everything. Ill survive.

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

Im excited to take a night away from con this weekend tho and see an improv show with some of my favorite comedians (and favorite dragon master haha). As much as I wanna hang with all my friends after den this was just too good of an opportunity to pass up!

000

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

Screen Printed like 40-60 shirts tonight (too lazy to count hahahahaha), finished two premades now getting a little work on tails done before going to bed. Killin it but theres still soooo much to do. Gotta remind myself anything I over prep or dont quite finish is just more for my next two cons.

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Sometimes I make reasonable decisions. Other times I decide its a good idea to con crunch a tiger instead of just going forward with the wolf or puppy bases ive made 🤣 hard mode or nothing i guess!!!

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

Put in some work on a new piece today and it still needs a lot (esp some moodier lighting) but starting to see where its goin and I like it. Can't wait to add the tearsss. Second pic is the sketch

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

Screaming into the void because I went to cut out fur for my gryphon premade and the fur was hella heat damaged straight from the boxxxxxxxx. Might be a sign to go tl bed soon hahah.

000

Oh 1000% she KNOWS the steps of me approaching a con and is super upset I got home from megaplex and started asc prep hahahaha

Lyida is protesting me working today. Just trying to trim seams and pin tails. This cat HATES being picked up, sitting on laps, being a cat etc and has been sitting on my lap purring for 45 mins. She knows what shes doing and def doesnt want me to leave again hahsh

Thats sooo reallllll. Im also an over communicator so that makes it so fun and very chill hahahaah. But mistakes are inevitable in any new experience and you gotta give yourself grace and treat it as a learning experience!

Hahah when you figure it out lemme knowww 🤣🤣

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

Quality so im happy. Gonna stick all the current stock into grab bags so im not stuck with different stocks in different materials. Gonna keep making my y2ks though cause im tooooo particular with the overlay/vinyl used. But that takes a HUGE thing off my plate. Shirts are def next.

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

Ive taken a big step towards sanity and am getting my stickers made by someone else 🤣 ordered most of my sfw ones before megaplex and just put in another like 400$ order to get the rest and most of my NSFW designs. Gonna make the big switch at asc! The stickers are a bit smaller but matte and nicer

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

Also autocorrect added an s and made me look dumb hahah

Bein kicked off for bein too fat cause my brain is straight up mean and I fear ppl and their opinions of me. Trying to collect myself a little but it sucks cause its really just all unknown until im on the plane.

Tomorrow is my first time flying in a few years and im a mess stressing about the fact ppl booked the seat next to me and if im gonna get booted for being too big. I utilized the complimentary second seat last time I flew (80lbs heavier) and i think im stuck mentally about it and im in panic about

I feel bad for the tsa agent who has to open my bag to find just half of it filled with 48 worms hahahahahah

000

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 14/08/2026

Packing is starting to hit a critical mass where im like...hmmm...i think one pair of shoes will suffice and I'll def be buying some shirts there...hahaha. Just trying to bring as much merch as I can and it's hard. I wanna dress cute but boots and cute clothes are big hahah.

020

HAPPY BIRTHDAYYYY🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Myrtle @monstermyrtle.bsky.social · 13/08/2026

Ive never had to ship stuff to a con and Im already panicked 🫠🫠🫠 I should be fine timeline wise (shipping out tomorrow) but theres just so many random factors that spike my anxiety. But at least this means ill have enough merch at con since it took me til yesterday to realize theres 10k attendees 🙃😅
