Good news, and bad news. First, the good: we got into MCFC! We will be returning to Detroit with all our fine treasures, and it will be our biggest showing yet 👀 However, MCFC shares dates with TFF. So we will not be going to Dallas next year. I wish we could do both, but there's only two of us 😭

Pretty happy with this setup! Learning how to utilize the canopy to full effect finally, I think. I want the space to feel inviting and eclectic, making you want to linger and explore, and I think I'm finally getting close 🥰

I want to do a little thread later about the work we do for events. I personally make between 1-500 units of sponsor swag for 2-3 events a year, and I don't think a lot of people know that, bc most people aren't getting sponsor or super sponsor swag!

And that's a wrap (literally and metaphorically) on week two at St Louis Ren Fest! In case you were curious what our booth looks like when we head home for the week :)

Alright now that they're in people's hands I can show off that I was once again given the incredible honor of designing sponsor swag for @tailsandtornadoes.org! When they told me the theme was a mashup of dinos and route 66 motifs this came to me like a vision, I sat down and carved it same day!

Retooling the displays this week. It's funny how much work and thought goes into things like this. Little decisions like how and where things are placed and how the customer is able to interact with them make a HUGE difference in how many things you sell, and you just have to do it live.

Since I've gotten into doing my own nails I've had a lot of friends ask if I can do theirs, and I'm one step closer to running my own speakeasy nail salon at cons now! This bad boy holds 128 polishes, plus my lamps, tools, foils and powders, all in a backpack!

Wife delivered a doordash yesterday to a repeat customer. He's a lovely fellow who, due to a very rare kidney disease, has to live in a nursing home, and has his groceries delivered. When she got to his room he was painting Warhammer minis, so she opted to turn off the app and chat with him.

Been doing a *BIG* woodworking project for a friend over the past month that's just wrapping up. Can't help but share my clever solution for making a 200lb table mobile. Operate two wheels with one foot, and once it's up it moves with a single finger. Might make the plans available at a later date!

This is also why I resent the reductive descriptor of "content creator". Content is consumed. You should aspire to more than that!

I struggle, sometimes, because I know some people have a negative opinion of me based on some dumb shit I said or did that probably didn't even involve them. Esp b/c those people often work very hard to spread that opinion to others, and undermine our reputation despite not even knowing me.

"Don't be mean to people who just like Harry Potter" I will be. That conversation started and ended ten years ago. It no longer holds up to scrutiny. Over the span of a whole Decade, you were unwilling to resolve your dependence on an IP which solely acts as the bankrolling of a genocidal Nazi party

While I'm doom posting about my trans experience: it's also been pretty bleak realizing how few welcoming spaces there are for 35+ femme trans women. I am, and this will shock some of you, fairly shy and not really all that good at socializing, so it's not a huge loss, but it still sucks, y'know?

Not gonna lie, I knew I would get misgendered a lot going into my transition, but I'm often kind of gobsmacked by the frequency. At most events I am wearing no less than 3 pins/flags with pronouns on them and I /still/ get he/him and sir. Sir is weird too as nobody ever used that when I looked masc.

Gonna get a little too real for a sec. Trying to get your mental health sorted is really a struggle when you're an independent creative. My mental health has seriously impacted my work, at this point. I have a lot of things I want to do, but it's just. Really difficult.

It's silently costing people friends and other connections, too. If I see that you are posting or reposting gen AI content I'm unlikely to say anything but I will immediately lose interest in striking up any kind of conversation, friendship, or working relationship. And I know I'm not the only one.

Houndsaint shop opening August 14th @ 7 pm EST, remaining open til Sept 14th. All profits go to my top surgery on Sept 16th! thank you!
