Rewatched The Lighthouse recently and it made me want to do some fan art. Then I remembered I already did some.

Dammit, I made a mistake over a dozen rows ago. Good thing these weave up quickly.

This is why I chose to be a plaintiff in one of the AI lawsuits, alongside several literary writers, because I saw this bullshit coming for genre writers from the jump.

I continue to be delighted by this weathervane in a shopping plaza in one of the nearby towns.

One of the things that is going to change is that we’re never ever again going to be able to be dominated by public officials who tell us, ‘Trust the experts,’” Mr. Kennedy said during the Tuesday session.

“If somebody tells you, ‘Masks work, trust the experts,’ A.I. may tell you otherwise,” he added. “If somebody tells you, ‘Social distancing works, trust the experts,’ A.I. may correct that. And if somebody tells you that a vaccine will prevent transmission and infection, or you need to take it to protect your grandmother, A.I. may say it actually doesn’t do that.”

Scored a french box easel for $60 for my hobbit larp persona. Too lazy to extend the legs right now, but I hope you can see my vision for The Bit I want to do (I also just ordered a bunch of 2x2" canvasses). 😆

"An angel..." Equal parts terrified and delighted fellow patrons at the rennfaire today with my Mysterious Stranger. I've gotten very good at swiveling the mask to look directly at people I catch staring at me in my peripheral vision. 😈

When they eventually make a movie about this time, please don't put the male politicians in good suits. IMO, the ugly, low rent tailoring should be part of the story.

Needs a bit more sealing to prevent dye bleeding when wet, but this is basically done. Might add a strap keeper, but it really isn't that necessary with most of my jeans. Same with extra holes - I just punched the one! Buckle is a vintage find, no idea on the date. Gut feeling is 60s or 70s.

May I remind everyone that there is currently NO cure for rabies. May I also remind everyone there is absolutely NO scientific proof connecting ANY vaccine that we produce today with autism. This is true regarding vaccination in both humans AND in dogs. Vaccinate your pets please.
Worries about vaccination rates in dogs
As rabies seems to be spreading more in wildlife, veterinarians are especially worried about vaccine hesitancy spreading among pet owners, a dangerous trend that could lead to more dogs - and their owners
- becoming infected. A 2023 study published in the journal Vaccine found in nationally representative
sample of Americans that nearly 40% believed canine vaccines were unsafe and 37% believed that vaccines could lead their dogs to develop cognitive issues, such as autism.

Suuuper cute sticker by local artist Julianna Brazill. It's so cute that I'm having commitment issues and can't decide what to stick it on! 😩 www.juliannabrazill.com/fishin-kitty...
