Friendly reminder that if your worried about your relationship, it's perfectly okay squirrel away a to-go bag with a few days of extra clothes and important documents. And if anyone asks, it's part of your emergency kit, you know, in case of tornados, flooding, or fires.

I also drew a repo boy inside and I’m not gonna explain what it is.

Got asked to send a postcard to a relative, and even though I haven’t touched a paintbrush in over twenty years and have practically no experience watercoloring, I tried to do something special.

I tried the technique of unifying color by having the same undertone. I think it worked?

This is a watercolor painting of a Cinderella pumpkin and a ball cactus. The pumpkin is not round but squashed and concave at the top. The ball cactus is poorly painted but spiky looking.

I’ve spent most of my life being told that if people like me want to see representation in media, then we must make media that represents us rather than demand it. Now those same people are bitching because we followed that advice. It was not made for you. Move on.

The reason I got my hysterectomy this year is because I asked for it. They left my ovary in to prevent menopause and I have to be in birth control to control my endometriosis, but it’s been such a relief to be free of the other symptoms.

I had my scrap last year and they found a mass as well. It turned out to be just a polyp. I mean, I did end up getting my cervix removed this year but that was for a completely different reason. Polyps happen and it’s likely all fine.

I’m in NorCal. It’s been low 90s to mid 80s all month. Last night it was mid 70s with lightning. I didn’t like that. It’s going to hit 87 today.

Please sent heartfelt wishes to the 200 pumpkins outside of Safeway.

We’re sitting in mid-90s weather for the next two weeks and I fear they won’t make it until Halloween.

I live in an area where it’s still going to be in the 70s by the time Thanksgiving comes around, but I’ve never understood why no one turns on the grill during the colder seasons.

I get why in places where it does snow and rain, but I don’t get why they don’t here.

I’m wondering if this has more to do with the fact that colon cancer is on the rise in general. I had to get a colonoscopy at an earlier age for an endometriosis screening and they found two polyps. I can guarantee I’m not built like a marathon runner.

When I was a kid, our library had these dense metal pullouts along the shelves that people could put research books on and flip through them. I saw an older man stand up into one and split his scalp open on it. The poor guy didn’t realize it happened and kept walking around after. So much blood.

I love how delicate the line art is!

Because it is the sacred day of cats, I will be burying my nose into my new ttrpg book.

Exactly 100!
