made a fresh #ArtVsArtist to pin here. hello there! I got really comfortable with gouache this year, and also challenged myself to make and print my own stickers.

man, imagine if instead of wasting my time, then insisting I needed to show a receipt from '17, the support center would have pity and send me the $7 (retail price) fix
that's what I would have done anyway. maybe it's good I'm not in tech anymore
anyway I fixed my keyboard! for $7, and lost time

oh good, somebody wrote about these freaks (mostly affectionate)
For @dreamcastaway.bsky.social, Fabio's lust for Dietrich — whether it's sexual or envious or both — is one of the most compelling parts of Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave.
Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave's most unexpected pair is a fascinating tangle of sex and gender

Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
![Hello Bone Colleagues,
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

I was so happy to be feeling better last night, especially because my sibling had an emergency and I was physically/mentally able to help them
realized this morning it's because I accidentally took the med I'm trying to taper twice yesterday (so, the old dose). goddammit

: can't paint art for next week until this 48+ hour migraine passes
: trying to not feel ashamed about that, because it's due to a med I'm in the process of discontinuing
: can still play FE:FW in a dim room, so at least the regular level-up fanfare makes me feel productive

the crazy thing about making time for any creative pursuit is that you literally have to do what you have a gut-deep yearning to do or else you'll see other people doing it, and it WILL make you insane.
