I can't even begin to describe how lucky I feel to have found a life companion like @izzysqueakzy.mothorialcomic.com. I am so excited to spend the rest of our lives together.

My darling, you brighten my world and you make me want to give back to the world even an ounce of the joy you give me.

In honor of the 15th (!!!) anniversary of My Little Pony: FIM, the show that gave me my career, my wife, and so many of my friends, I am unlocking the Meta Vault to show you all some ANCIENT pictures, including a pic from the FIRST anniversary, my OG pony, and BABY ME after my first concert!

A comic I drew back in high school for the first anniversary of MLP. Adorable.

My first version of Arpeggio, my ponysona, from when I joined the fandom! I drew it myself good job little me

I printed this shirt myself. No idea what happened to it.

After my first concert at Everfree NW 2012, the first Everfree, with Daniel Ingram and William Anderson. Still got that shirt somehow!

Keep an eye out for @batshaped.bsky.social ‘s werewolf and vampire icons. No one knows Halloween better than bats.

Can a dog be a werewolf? Well, he sure can for Halloween!

Thank you so much to @batshaped.bsky.social for the amazing icon! Keep an eye out, she's going to be opening more slots for both werewolf and vampire icons soon!

My dog Sona, but he's wearing a werewolf costume and standing in front of the full moon!

I'm super curious, y'all - with this merch being my current fare (except the Galacon poster; I'll be using that art again but that particular poster was an exclusive for that con) what sort of merch would you be excited to see in the future? Stuff that you'd definitely buy if you saw it at my table!

A selection of Metajoker merch, such as posters and stickers!

Metajoker's three physical albums: "Second Chances", "Ghosts and Waterfalls", and "Dreams of Flight".

You would think! But I first found out through reading a Terry Pratchett book where it was split across lines as Pains-taking, then verified when reading online. Apparently a common misconception

Just realized the word is pains-taking, not pain-staking. Which makes so much more sense.

Shout-out to the AMAZING Galacon AV team for their work on the set and livestream. This is seriously impressive lighting and camera work and I'm so grateful for having been able to perform with the support of such a professional and gracious crew. Like look at these livestream shots. Incredible.

More art of Luna, my femmesona/mascot for my EDM music! The silkie chicken (sometimes griffon) who can't fly but dreams of the sky! She reflects a lot of my own journey and I adore her.

Amazing art by @bagelcollie.bsky.social, @momodriller.bsky.social, and @pimmy.bsky.social! Thank you all so much!

That's me, AND our state doesn't let us get vaccinations until the CDC's advisory board decides it's safe. So for now, pharmacies literally won't let us. So gotta travel states fdjdjd

NEW ELECTRONIC COMPILATION ALBUM: DREAMS OF FLIGHT 🪽

Selling at Galacon this weekend!

Thank you SO much to @pimmy.bsky.social for her help with lineart!

Say hello to Luna (no relation), the night loving silkie chicken griffin who can't fly but dreams big. She's my mascot for my electronic music!

A silkie chicken snow leopard griffon lies on a field of pixel flowers, sleeping and happily dreaming. The title Dreams of Flight sits above.
