It's been that kind of day.

Panel 1: A brown-haired woman in a blue shirt sits at a white tablecloth table holding a cocktail glass, looking across at an unseen date. Speech bubble: "SO, WE'RE FINALLY ALONE TOGETHER."
Panel 2: The view shifts to the opposite chair, occupied by a large, featureless pink sphere with the text "MY THOUGHTS" written across it.
Panel 3: The woman takes a sip from her drink with a somber, resigned expression. Speech bubble: "I DON'T THINK THIS IS GOING TO WORK OUT."

I think the heat might be getting to me. I did this and I'm cackling because I am basically a 44 year old child.

You know little gas canisters that screw on to your BBQ? Empty but it won't unscrew (turns but that's it) I've tried tightening to loosen, oil, tapping the brass fitting in case of cross threading. It's probably a pressure lock, so puncturing the empty can may release it? Bad idea probably?

Using modern technology to allow us to continue to witness something the people of this island built in connection with the seasons and the universe thousands of years ago is pretty cool, actually

My sincere thanks @ciaraioch.bsky.social for your wonderful cards, bonus drawings, bookmarks and other goodies. They are all getting in the post tomorrow! Ps: I love the miniature drawing of said tiny dog.

A brown rigid envelope with personal details blocked off.

There is a drawing of a woman on the top right of the artist with her hair across her face as a silly mustache (that would be the exceptional @ciaraioch

She has also drawn a miniature version of my dog to indicate I am the owner of said pup to make me easier to find 🐾

Not sure people realise how hard it's been recently for artists to survive, or how deeply appreciated every single order is. If you can't buy something, it makes a huge difference just to share our work. If you can't share our work, a little sacrifice to the Old Gods on our behalf means a lot, too 💜
