Knocked this out for Sunday. Still working on color impact on composition
A vibrant digital illustration in a whimsical cartoon style depicting a young witch character with blue hair, adorned with goggles, and a red dress. She wears moon boots and carries a broom, and reaches one white-gloved hand outward as she rides a sweeping wave of blue and grey across a fantastical landscape. Her expression is one of wide-eyed wonder. Swirling toward her from a deep purple, star-flecked sky is a cascade of soft, ghost-like creatures — including a barn owl, a small brown bear or dog, a dragonfly, a cat in a space helmet, a dark bird, a pink dragon, and several other soft rounded spirits or familiars. The background suggests a stylized cityscape of grey buildings to the left and rolling misty mountains to the right, all rendered in cool purples, blues, and greys contrasted against the warm tones of the central character. The overall composition feels dynamic and joyful, with a sense of magic spilling outward in all directions. A small artist’s signature is visible in the upper right corner.

So…. I’m in Korea right now and it’s epic. But it’s also giving me no time for social media unless it’s IG. Lol
A close-up selfie of a person with short brown hair wearing black-framed round glasses and a black hoodie. They have facial hair including a goatee and visible ear piercings. The photo is taken indoors against a neutral background with white walls and what appears to be a framed mirror or artwork. The lighting is natural and even, and the person is looking directly at the camera with a neutral expression.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​A vibrant spring scene featuring rows of coral-pink and red tulips with cream-colored edges blooming along concrete steps in what appears to be an urban plaza or park. The tulips are planted in neat beds that line the stairway, creating a striking display. In the soft-focused background, people can be seen walking through the space, with yellow flowers visible in the mid-ground and lush green foliage beyond. The composition creates a lovely depth of field with the tulips sharp in the foreground while the pedestrians and surrounding landscape blur softly, emphasizing the beauty of the spring blooms in this public space.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​A large-scale robotic or mecha sculpture dominates the foreground, rendered in silver and light grey segmented armor plating with detailed mechanical components including rivets, vents, hydraulic tubes, and articulated joints visible throughout its leg and torso sections. The figure stands on a polished concrete floor in what appears to be a modern gallery or exhibition space with a coffered ceiling and track lighting. In the background, a sleek black and yellow Formula 1-style racing car is displayed on a low platform, bearing the “Gentle Monster” brand name in bold lettering along its side. Two visitors — one in dark clothing and one with red hair — can be seen in the distance examining the car exhibit. The overall atmosphere is that of a high-concept art or brand installation space, blending futuristic industrial sculpture with motorsport and fashion aesthetics.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​A dramatically lit interior installation space, almost entirely shrouded in darkness, centers on a glowing rectangular ceiling panel that emits soft, diffused white light downward. From this luminous ceiling feature, a narrow curtain of falling water descends in a single column, landing on a small raised platform or plinth positioned within a large, still reflecting pool below. The pool’s surface is nearly black, mirror-like, and reflects the glow of the ceiling light above. The surrounding room is constructed of dark concrete or stone walls and low geometric benches or display surfaces arranged along the perimeter, barely visible in the deep shadows. A lone figure can be glimpsed to the left, silhouetted against a faintly lit display. The overall atmosphere is profoundly meditative and architectural — evoking a contemplative, almost ceremonial space where light, water, and darkness are the primary design elements.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

A humorous meme featuring two white creatures edited with fantastical, chaotic imagery. The cat on the left wears pink sunglasses and a sparkly tiara, while the unicorn on the right sports a glittery horn. Both animals are adorned with shimmery, magical effects and accessories in pink and gold tones. The image has a dreamy, slightly grainy filter giving it a whimsical quality.
The text reads “Giddy up sparklefarts, We got fuckery to spread” in white text at the top, conveying a playful, rebellious attitude.

For anyone curious, I started blogging in 2005 on Blogger and LiveJournal and the cringe there was 100x worse. But I’ve been contemplating bringing it all over, heavily cringe redacted, in installments on mousebrat.com just for the nostalgia.

Titles are "Mobile Blogging" (Jan 2, 2007), "The Dead Do Walk Again" (May 22, 2006), "Mobile Blogging" (Sep 9, 2005), "iPod nano" (Sep 7, 2005), and "If You're Not the One..." (Sep 5, 2005).

This was one of the last ones I remember seeing in NYC in 2016. I think they all got swapped for WiFi hotspots shortly after.
A metallic phone booth with a pink and purple glow stands on a city street corner at night. The booth has a perforated design and a keypad inside. A street sign reading "ONE WAY" is mounted on a pole next to it. In the background, a bus with illuminated advertisements is visible, and a traffic light shows red. A plastic bag is on the sidewalk near the booth. The scene is dimly lit by streetlights.

Two red traffic lights hang above a road with trees on either side. A sign between the lights reads "DON'T BLOCK THE BOX UP TO $500 FINE." In the distance, a bridge crosses over a wooded area under a cloudy sky. A car is parked on the side of the road.

See a bridge, post a bridge #blueskyartshow #photography #nyc
A moody, atmospheric photograph of the Manhattan Bridge shrouded in dense fog on an overcast winter day. The iconic suspension bridge’s cables and tower fade into the thick gray mist, creating a mysterious, ethereal quality. In the foreground, a waterfront pathway runs along the East River, bordered by a rocky shoreline and featuring bare winter trees with skeletal branches. A street lamp and some reddish-brown winter brush add subtle color to the otherwise muted blue-gray palette. The fog obscures much of the bridge’s span and the cityscape beyond, evoking a sense of isolation and the raw beauty of New York City in winter. The composition emphasizes the bridge’s dramatic architecture emerging from and disappearing into the fog, creating a contemplative urban landscape scene.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

First tarot reading of 2026. Things are looking up! Also, I’m exhausted.
A tarot and oracle card reading spread laid out on a black cloth in atmospheric candlelight. The arrangement combines traditional Rider-Waite-Smith tarot cards (showing classic imagery including The Sun, Ten of Pentacles, The Lovers, and Five of Cups) with modern oracle cards featuring minimalist designs in muted blues, greens, and earth tones. A glowing orange candle creates warm illumination in the background, while a small dark bowl (possibly containing crystals or ritual items) sits in the foreground. The cards are arranged in what appears to be a structured spread pattern, creating a mystical divination scene with the interplay of traditional and contemporary cartomancy tools. The low lighting and careful composition emphasize the sacred, contemplative nature of the reading practice.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I love @bookshop.org. Don’t give Amazon any more money if you can help it.
A collection of divination and oracle decks arranged on a vibrant orange desk pad. The display includes five items:

A screenshot from Animal Crossing: New Horizons showing a whimsical celestial-themed room during what appears to be a mystical or fortune-telling session. The scene features a light blue unicorn character (Julia) wearing a galaxy-patterned dress standing near an ornate golden table with a scale and star decoration. A player character with round glasses and a white winter hat sits across from her. The room is decorated with celestial furniture including a golden harp, stone animal statues (appearing to be a sphinx and sheep), lit candles on a mat that looks like tarot cards, and a decorative star garland hanging across the top of the room. The atmosphere is enhanced by a starry blue backdrop with twinkling lights, creating a magical, mystical ambiance perfect for fortune-telling or divination activities.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I don’t know what the magic mix is in this movie, but Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland is so satisfyingly weird and stimulating to the imagination.
A digital fantasy illustration depicting a whimsical blue caterpillar character reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland’s Absolem. The rotund creature sits atop a mushroom in a dreamlike forest setting, smoking from an ornate hookah pipe. The caterpillar has a wrinkled, contemplative face with two curling antennae sprouting from its head. Warm orange and rust-colored foliage frames the background, creating a bokeh effect that contrasts beautifully with the cool teal-blue tones of the character. Purple mushrooms are visible in the lower right corner. The atmospheric lighting creates a mystical, otherworldly ambiance with soft glowing effects around the smoke. The artwork is signed “Kyoha” in the bottom right corner and captures the surreal, philosophical essence of Lewis Carroll’s iconic character.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Happy Yule, happy solstice, happy longest night, Merry Gēol. Yule has always felt more significant to me than its oppose, Midsummer, but part of that may just be the stark absence of sunlit hours and the absolute toe-curling joy that a return to longer days brings.
A witchy altar arrangement featuring multiple lit candles casting warm light across a dark circular slate base. The centerpiece includes a decorative singing bowl with engraved patterns, rose quartz crystals, a metal pentacle disc, and a smoky quartz point on a stand. A slender taper candle burns in a black holder while a thicker pillar candle with a moon phase design glows behind it. Burning incense creates a thin wisp of smoke rising from the arrangement. In the background, a bronze or copper-toned statue of what appears to be Pan holds objects in his hands, flanked by vibrant red poinsettia flowers and pieces of natural wood or driftwood. Tarot cards are visible at the bottom edge of the frame. White horizontal blinds provide a neutral backdrop, while the overall composition suggests an active ritual or devotional space with holiday seasonal touches.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The duality of December in Texas is feeling like it’s finally Fall but also there are winter holiday decorations literally everywhere.
A canopy of autumn trees photographed from below, showing a dense mixture of foliage transitioning from deep green to vibrant golden yellow and orange. Warm evening or late afternoon light filters through the leaves, creating a glowing effect in the center where the autumn colors are most concentrated. Dark branches create intricate patterns throughout, and patches of pale sky peek through the gaps in the foliage. The image captures the peak of fall colors in a natural, woodland setting.A festive Christmas garland draped over what appears to be white horizontal blinds or shutters. The evergreen garland is decorated with various ornaments including a large green ball ornament, a white fuzzy ball, metallic red and silver tinsel, and vintage-style glass ornaments including a red and white candy cane and what appears to be a miniature cupcake or basket ornament. The decorations have a traditional, slightly retro aesthetic with the red, green, white, and silver color scheme. The background shows a beige wall and hints of additional holiday decorations in the blurred background.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Coming off the cozy winter vacation up north and I’m not ready to do the normal thing yet. NY is so beautiful.
A moody street scene on a foggy winter morning showing silhouettes of bare trees and utility poles with power lines against a gray sky. A subtle peachy-orange glow from the sunrise breaks through the heavy cloud cover. The wet pavement reflects the dim light, and a parked vehicle is barely visible through the mist. The scene has an atmospheric, almost eerie quality typical of early morning fog.Four fresh eggs arranged in a line on a colorful vintage-style fabric with floral patterns in teal, yellow, purple, and cream. The eggs display a beautiful natural color gradient from front to back: pale blue-green (likely from an Araucana or Easter Egger chicken), light sage green with speckles, golden tan with small spots, and deeper brown. The quilted fabric beneath features intricate botanical designs.A cozy kitchen counter scene captured in warm, golden lighting. In the foreground, a bright orange/red coffee mug sits prominently. Behind it, a glass bowl contains what appears to be fruit, and various kitchen items are scattered across the counter including what looks like a supplement or vitamin bottle. A window with white cafe curtains with dark embroidered trim lets in natural light, creating a homey atmosphere. The scene has a lived-in, comfortable quality with everyday items casually arranged.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​A cozy, maximalist corner of a room featuring a deep olive green tufted armchair adorned with patterned throw pillows - one in navy blue and another with red and white geometric designs. A dramatic black arc floor lamp with dual adjustable heads curves over the chair, providing ambient lighting. The room has rich, dark green walls contrasted with cream-colored trim around elegant windows dressed in lace curtains with peachy-gold ruffled valances. An ornate gilt mirror hangs on the left wall, while framed artwork decorates the tan accent wall. The space is anchored by a vintage Persian-style rug in coral and cream tones, with a tan dog bed visible on the floor. A decorative wooden shelf or stand appears on the right side. The overall aesthetic blends Victorian elegance with bohemian comfort, creating an intimate reading nook bathed in warm, ambient lighting.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Utah is a lot prettier than I expected.
A dramatic landscape photograph showing a mountain range under an overcast sky with heavy, layered clouds. The mountains appear to be part of a desert or semi-arid region, with rugged, rocky terrain and multiple peaks creating a jagged silhouette against the moody sky. The foreground shows some vegetation and what appears to be urban development including power lines and structures. The lighting is muted and atmospheric, with the thick cloud cover creating a monochromatic, almost sepia-toned appearance. The composition emphasizes the scale and grandeur of the natural landscape against the dramatic weather conditions overhead.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Got my first frigate in No Man’s Sky. On accident. Had some Vader moments standing on the bridge.
A screenshot from what appears to be a space-themed video game, likely Mass Effect, showing a character in futuristic armor standing in what looks like a spacecraft or space station. The character is wearing sleek, form-fitting armor with blue and purple accents and technological details. They’re positioned near large windows or viewports that show a stunning view of space with stars, nebulae, and what appears to be a planet’s edge visible in the background. The interior architecture features smooth, curved surfaces and blue lighting elements typical of sci-fi game design. The overall aesthetic suggests this is from a modern AAA space exploration or RPG game with high-quality graphics and detailed environmental design.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

It will never fail to confuse me why Austin chose Papyrus as the font for the Brazos street signs. Why?
A street corner scene showing the intersection at Brazos Street. The image captures urban infrastructure including a traffic light with an orange pedestrian crossing signal, street signage with “No Right Turn” and bicycle symbols, and a metal trash receptacle. The “Brazos Street” sign is prominently displayed on a stone or concrete base. The setting appears to be in a downtown area with modern buildings visible in the background, mature trees providing shade, and typical city streetscape elements like utility poles and sidewalks. The lighting suggests this was taken during daytime hours.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Someone said my outfit looked good today, so have an entirely unrelated photo I took earlier.
The entrance to One Eleven, a modern residential or office building with a sleek architectural design. The building features a contemporary facade with light-colored panels and horizontal window bands creating a geometric pattern. The ground level shows two clearly marked “PARKING ENTRANCE” openings leading into what appears to be an underground parking garage, with yellow and black striped clearance indicators showing height restrictions. The building’s name “ONE ELEVEN” is displayed in clean, minimalist lettering on the stone or concrete base level. The photograph captures the building during what appears to be late afternoon, with dramatic shadows cast across the entrance area from nearby structures or trees.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Fun fact: some people only use part of the Buldak package when they make ramyeon. I don’t understand, but hey, you do you, boo-boo. I made it like the creator intended tonight- with cheese corn on top.
A Korean meal spread featuring several dishes arranged on a dark surface. The main items include two decorative bowls with wave patterns containing what appears to be Korean fried rice topped with scrambled eggs and black sesame seeds or nori. There are also two white plates with golden-brown Korean corn dogs (hotteoks or similar fried items) that look crispy and well-cooked. Additionally, there are two small white bowls containing what looks like Korean pickled vegetables (likely kimchi or pickled radish and cucumber) with vibrant orange and green colors. In the background, there’s a black container labeled “CREATINE MONOHYDRATE” and some fresh green onions or scallions. The meal represents a nice variety of Korean comfort foods with both savory mains and traditional fermented side dishes.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

This was it. This is what got me to buy my first vinyl. And now my wallet is crying because I’m looking at turntables.
A promotional photo or poster featuring four members of Stray Kids posed against a dreamy sky backdrop with blue and pink clouds. The members are wearing coordinated cream and white outfits with some red accents. The styling has a soft, ethereal aesthetic - Bangchan is positioned centrally and elevated, wearing a light-colored outfit with red boots, while the other three are arranged around him in relaxed poses. The overall composition has a fashion editorial quality with professional lighting and styling, typical of K-pop promotional photography or album artwork.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​A clear vinyl record being held up, showing the blue center label for “KARMA” with “SIDE A” visible and what appears to be track listings in smaller text. The record appears to be translucent or clear vinyl, which is a special pressing format. Through the transparent vinyl, you can see the person’s hand holding it and the car interior in the background, including what looks like the dashboard and steering wheel. This type of colored or clear vinyl pressing is often used for special editions or limited releases of albums.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Two large promotional photos or posters displayed side by side, featuring close-up portraits of Lee Know (left) and Bangchan (right) The left image shows Lee Know with dark hair covering part of their face, photographed from a slightly angled perspective. The right image shows Bangchan with tousled dark hair in a more profile view. Both images have a moody, artistic quality with dramatic lighting and appear to be professional promotional photography, likely for an album, concert, or other entertainment event. The photos are mounted or displayed against what looks like a dark ceiling or overhead structure.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Yeah. It’s gonna be weird. Demo night is live on Twitch now. Playing “Winnie’s Hole” which just sounds… so, so wrong. bit.ly/4lealVG #LiveAF
The logo/title screen for “Winnie’s Hole,” a game featuring Winnie the Pooh. The image shows the classic yellow bear character positioned on the left side against a purple and orange gradient background. The title text “Winnie’s Hole” is displayed in large, golden yellow letters with a playful font style. The “o” in “Hole” appears to be stylized with what looks like a small bee or similar design element. The overall aesthetic has a warm, autumn-like color palette with rich purples and oranges, giving it a cozy, storybook feel typical of Winnie the Pooh media.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

It’s another night of hot Korean men.
A concert stage setup for ATEEZ’s 2025 World Tour “[IN YOUR FANTASY]” showing a massive red backdrop with the tour title prominently displayed in large black letters. The stage features an elaborate lighting rig with professional truss systems and red stage lights creating dramatic illumination. At the bottom of the image, you can see the silhouettes of concert-goers’ heads, indicating this photo was taken from the audience perspective. The industrial-scale production setup with complex rigging and lighting demonstrates the high production value typical of major K-pop world tours.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
