An introduction for my new followers! I post comics, tattoos, photos of my dog and mushrooms I found in the woods.

Here's my webcomic that I don't shut up about while it's actively posting
fairmeadowcomic.com

a simple cartoon self portrait of me, a person holding an ipad in a case with a can of yerba mate. I have a mullet and usually wear a tight shirt and big pants, as pictured. A black and white dog sploots on the ground on one side of me and a very fluffy cat loafs on the other side. It reads: KENDRA P. (KP) cartoonist, tattooer, PDX. "Fit Queer" - my friend lizzie. "Read Fairmeadow" - Me, desperately

A color tattoo of a pacific banana slug crawling over a basket weave pattern. tattooed in Portland, Oregon by me!

I believe it’s a Northwestern Salamander!

KP @hagofbolding.bsky.social · 1d

I was too - he seemed to be extremely slow moving, and he was squarely in the middle of a busy trail, I was able to very gently move him to the side without him doing much but tensing up (perhaps in paralyzing fear 😅)

KP @hagofbolding.bsky.social · 1d

My hand for scale! He was BIG

I met this glorious sticky boy in forest park this morning

A large northwestern salamander on a bed of moss and leaves - it has a chubby build and dark purply gray skin

Portland protestor frog costume: What are you trying to tell me? That I can dodge pepper balls?

Morpheus from Matrix movie: No, Frog. I'm trying to tell you that when you're ready, you won't have to.

Like they also sell the pro cintiqs without any stand at all, forcing people to buy an extra $500 stand on top of the display tablet that starts at like $2500

KP @hagofbolding.bsky.social · 5d

It came with a USBC cable and a power supply cable, which essentially allows you to use the cintiq 24 with a phone or laptop or tablet?? But if you’re on a desktop you’re SOL. I imagine Wacom is just being cheap

KP @hagofbolding.bsky.social · 5d

Ohhh yes, I truly had forgotten how much of my cable management was just dedicated to this badboy lol

KP @hagofbolding.bsky.social · 5d

DMs work for me, but if you'd rather email: [email protected] :)

KP @hagofbolding.bsky.social · 5d

Today I learned 💀

KP @hagofbolding.bsky.social · 5d

I got the new Cintiq 24 today and god forbid Wacom actually includes all of the cables one might need to set up on day 1 - nope, they gotta try to sell you a USBA to USBC & a mini HDMI to HDMI cable for $30 each on their store! God forbid we include a $5 cable in your $1300+ purchase

KP @hagofbolding.bsky.social · 5d

All the cables are included, I also have an HDMI adapter attached to the VGA cable. The erg arm connects via VESA mount on the back of the cintiq

Shares are greatly appreciated!

I am half expecting to open it up and find a bit of a dance party 🪱 but I think most of it will be salvageable haha

The full haul from yesterday after cleaning them up - porcini (king bolete) on the left, admirable bolete in the middle, slippery jacks in the top right, rainbow(?) chanterelles bottom right

An array of wild mushrooms spread out on a tea towel

KP @hagofbolding.bsky.social · 6d

It is a choice edible and my personal fav wild mushroom! They almost feel like they’re made of wood when you hold them too, they’re very strange compared to the average grocery store shrooms

KP @hagofbolding.bsky.social · 7d

Here’s hoping it’s not so buggy it will disintegrate before I get it home

KP @hagofbolding.bsky.social · 7d

I continue to exercise my right to be a big huge dork about mushrooms here. Look at my porcini! LOOK

It’s me! I am in a forest wearing some kind of dorky hiking clothes in shades of blue, teal and purple and holding a thick chode of a mushroom in my hand, smiling like a pig in shit

KP @hagofbolding.bsky.social · 7d

Please note we were not feeding these birds, gray jays are just very chill about perching on people (probably because they *have* been food conditioned, unfortunately.) Don’t feed wild animals! Just don’t do it!

A totally normal whale 🐋

A black and gray tattoo on a person’s upper arm of a baleen whale covered in eyeballs down the length of its body, growing fungus out of its face and sprouting mushrooms from its blowhole like a waterspout. The fins are long and wispy.
Tattooed at Hot Damn tattoo in Portland, Oregon

Right!? There are probably other therapeutic tools out there that could achieve the same result without the high price tag, I just had never considered screwing a clamp onto my hand
