On today's episode of doing something that should have been done 2 years ago and only took approximately half an hour but goddammit it took so much mental effort to force myself to do it: Event box labels ✨️

The axolotl I made for @brightbard.bsky.social inspired me. We need more angy plush 🤣😡

Would suggest the book Blood in the Machine to any modern artist or storyteller. It's a history of the real Luddites, and its fascinating how their revolution echoes in our current day.

A group of master puppeteers and puppet designers that I really admire are hosting a spooky market in October! Come see some of their creepiest puppet designs, and hang out with me 😈

Stuffing the goblins might be my least favorite part. It takes forever, and the metal hemostats I use for stuffing always ends up hurting my hands 😪 If anyone has a lead on an at-home Build-A-Bear style stuffing machine hmu 🤣

Honored to present @brightbard.bsky.social their very own Axolotl with a Gun last night! The eyebrows are magnetic, and removeable to make the angriest or sweetest axolotl. We're coming for you AI overlords 😈

I take feedback seriously! A couple folks at GenCon mentioned that the goblin pants just didn't fit right. Sometimes too small, sometimes too big. I had no idea!! Over the past couple days, I went right to fixing it. Goblin pants are now size inclusive with an elastic waist 🫡

I have to admit GenCon this year was a little different. I spent more time reconnecting with friends than any year previously and left feeling like part of a community for the first time. Thanks for making me feel welcome nerds ❤️

Another GenCon for the books! Second year bringing the goblins to GenCon and boy-howdy I did not make enough. First and last goblins were sold within less than 36 hours of one another. 💀 At least they didn't have to survive the tornado in the Exhibitor Hall 🌪

Krag the Absolutely-A-Goblin 🦎🦎🦎 Krag the Kobold grew up in town wearing their favorite goblin costume as a child, and we all played along. It seemed to make them so happy, who were we to tell them otherwise? We seemed to have committed to the bit too long, but shhh don't spill our secret 😉

I went out on a limb two weeks ago and made matching capelet sets for you and your goblin to wear together. So happy to see them find good homes this weekend with two amazing humans. 💜 What matching sets should I make next? I'm thinking maybe human goblin-ear headbands? 🤣

Sold Out?! Attending CONvergence this year, I sold out of my entire stock. That is, all of the stock I had made for the entire summer. In four days. Gone. I never could have imagined this in my most ambitious dreams. Thank you Minneapolis, my home. What a joy after a dark winter 💚
