I thought I was taking an anti-nausea pill before getting on my 4hr train ride. IT WAS A FUCKING LAXATIVE

I'm the magnet sicko. Still playing around with my ideal way of making eyes.
A series of colorful handmade polyner clay food magnets with faces, including broccoli, cheese, an apple, a strawberry, oranges, bananas, carrots, and a lime.

Finished The Red Sacrament by @boneysoups.bsky.social and it was some of my favorite vampire lore next to GRRM(crucial b/c I’m not into normal vamps). I’d KILL for a prequel about the first female vampires when it was a religious order or the vampire cult that made the catacombs under the theater.

Extremely stupid modern problems- my email has been signed up for info from "Class Dojo" for a boy named James and it keeps emailing me sensored updated about his class activities. I can click unsubscribe but because I'm wrongfully "James"'s parent it does nothing 🙃

I think about this at least a dozen times a day.
people end up unable to see depiction as anything other than endorsement when their entire cultural diet is escapist fun and reassurance. they see something make them uncomfortable and can only assume people are watching horrible shit as vicarious pleasure and are horrified.

I picked up magnets that had canvas fronts for a vacation craft and then no one but my mom and I did them.
Arched magnet shaped like a window with a scene of lilypad-esque fantasy plants coming out of the water. It has an abstract border of peach, maroon, and blue shapes.

With everyone picking their top 4 tweets, I truly believe this should be in the conversation of greatest tweets of all time. Knocked me on my ass, it's incredible work

Wow, I love all this interest in little-known life cycles! Yay! I'm still researching Mazdas to figure out which sex carries the young (send refs if you have them!), but in the meantime please enjoy my previous study on airplane reproduction
A pencil drawing of an airplane flying low over power lines. The plane's position is similar to a bird laying an egg: bent at the lower back, abdomen lowered, cloaca stretched open as a round egg emerges. Its visible eye is squeezed shut in effort. The egg is about to be deposited on the power line, which already holds two round eggs that look exactly like the visibility markers you may have seen on power lines before.A pencil drawing of airplane eggs hatching on power lines. In the foreground, four balls are attached to a line. The first is a closed sphere with a faint outline of a baby plane inside. The second is torn open, with a baby plane emerging. The third is hanging empty, with the freshly hatched airplane perched on it. The fourth appears to be unfertilized, with three hatchling airplanes all around it, taking bites. (Biologists call this a nurse egg.) In the background, a distant set of eggs can be seen on another set of power lines.Pencil sketch, as from a naturalist's sketchbook, depicting four possible types of airplane fertilization. In the upper left, two planes in flight are connected by a bumpy tube which is labeled "intromittent organ." (This drawing looks very similar to in-flight fueling.) In the upper right, two jets fly in close formation, belly to belly. Where their lower parts touch is labeled "cloacal kiss." Both of these upper drawings are labelel "aerial internal fertilization."
In the lower left, two large passenger jets mate on the ground, one mounting the other from behind. No genitalia are visible. The drawing is labeled "terrestrial internal fertilization."
In the lower right, a light aircraft flies low over power lines with airplane eggs already deposited on them. From the abdominal region of the aircraft comes a cloud. This is labeled "external fertilization 'dusting'".

Bluesky has repeatedly been giving me this popup. They think I live in a state I've never been to in a country I don't live in and it's pissing me off.
The bluesky pop-up asking me to confirm my age and date of birth, specifying it believes me, a resident of Canada, lives in Texas USA, and I should share my gps coordinates or age range to verify.

My favorite toy project I've ever worked on just officially launched (after a really wonderful trial period in Europe) and I want to talk about it but I usually try to avoid mentions of my job because I Do Not Represent The Views Of My Company and don't want to get The Dreaded HR Meeting.

Artists, it looks like Adobe might be doing very questionable things at the moment by auto-enrolling you into a more expensive AI-heavy "pro" plan (potentially even charging you for opting out after the fact, which I should hope is illegal). Be vigilant 🧵 see further posts below

We NEED to bring back calling people sellouts. People should feel shame for betraying their artistic communities for money. We gotta shame and boo artists who backstab others for corporate greed. (TO BE CLEAR: this is different from doing things you don't want to to make rent.)
