Made some of my original story portals live on my site... there's no comic there yet, but you CAN look at art others have drawn for me there... =)

I also finally made a logo for re:Peat. I hope it comes across beautifully 90s.

Living Legend needs a logo next!

Oh, oh— recently I added resources on #Journaling and #DigitalGardening to my website.

Both activities have helped me be in my own mind and incubate ideas, so, maybe they'll help you too!

LOTS of ideas here — incl a whole feedback blog post! — from tagging to expressivity to content policy to navigation flexibility to collaborativ publications…

Third in our series on improving Leaflet for different communities; we'd love your thoughts!

THANK YOU!! 💜💜💜
You guys rule… longform thoughts are exactly what I've been missing from my social media experience lately.

Thanks for giving them even more of an ATproto presence :D

👻🎃🕯 #art #halloween

An illustration of a pumpkin-headed furry creature, with big bappy paws, soft ears, and a small stature. The pumpkin is carved like a jackolantern; a worried, sad sort of expression with a bright orange-yellow glow emanating from within. Two wild curly candycorn-esque striped horns appear to have sprouted from within. The tip of its tail is alight like a candle wick, and two moth wings sprout from its back.

In the bright purple background of the illustration 3 pumpkin patch pumpkins act as a motif and some guides for the eyes to follow.

Hope everyone's having a good week so far!! I'm trying Leaflet.pub out. It's kinda like Tumblr? You can make a blog on the ATmosphere using your Bluesky account.

I hope you'll consider subscribing for art roundups, longer thoughts, and mirrored posts from my .com website! #Leaflet #Blog

Little wishlist to the @leaflet.pub folks…

Please don't hide the RSS subscribe button after I subscribe to a blog via ATproto 🥺

Sometimes I'm a little bit silly... I want to subscribe to someone's blog two ways

I regret heavily leaning into shop and K0-F! tbh. (Not bad things, just a bad time, and bad for me under those factors/contexts.) But I don't regret building up OCsky and helping out comicSky at all.

It's weird.

I think a lot of my problem has been using the social media the way devs intend for me to, which isn't always the best for my health.

So now I am experimenting with "hacking" my social media experience by using it "wrong" on purpose. More to come, soon…

I've made/started some of the best and longest-lasting interpersonal relationships I've ever had in my entire life through social media.

I have also lost my mind and took major damage to my artistic and personal self worth through it, so 50-50.

THAT SAID,

Also moots if you make a Leaflet (login with your BlueSky, BlackSky etc)

I'd love to subscribe to it! Especially if you don't blog elsewhere. There are too many skeets, bleets, on the timeline. Let me eat your blog posts.

Leaflet also makes an RSS feed for you so people can subscribe that way too.

so apparently you can make an rss feed-friendly longform blog on atprotocol and it can communicate with all the fediverse/atprotocol app views (including bluesky) but it's not under bluesky!!! about.leaflet.pub

me and @hikatamika.com cooking ideas with this
