BY THE WAY

If you've updated to Windows 11 recently, you're probably on version 25H2.

There's a new setting in Settings: Privacy & Security.

Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation."

TURN IT OFF.

I've become abruptly sick, and the jamu drink (Indonesian drink with tumeric, ginger, lemon juice, honey, water, and black pepper) recipe I followed turned out to have a DIABOLICAL AMOUNT OF BLACK PEPPER IN IT compared to other recipes. WHO HURT YOU?!??! ༎ຶ⁠‿⁠༎ຶ

I returned to table at my local library comix event yesterday! It's really great (and important!) to establish local unity and connections no matter how small or big. I also drew and printed out a freebie coloring page of Derpy the tiger for anyone to grab. 🎃❤️

Here is my patchwork Halloween kimono I sewed myself! This is my second komon/casual kimono. I've been sitting on my Halloween fabric for a few years, and finally decided what to make! The squares are 6", and over 100 squares were needed to make it. 🎃💀 #kimono #kitsuke #着物 #halloween

Photo of a pale, white woman facing the camera in a patchwork Halloween-themed kimono they sewed themselves. The color scheme is orange/orange-yellow and black, with the squares alternating between those two colors. The fabric motifs vary from cartoony skeletons, pumpkins, black cats, candy, ghosts, and other fun Halloween iconography.

The sleeves are one solid piece of black and white skeletons, and the fabric designs are vertically tiled cartoon skeletons (this is necessary because the sleeve pattern is cut in one piece, so I wanted something that would still read upside down and right side up!)

The collar is black with dark gray texture to match the black sleeves. The obi around the waist is plain black, and is decorated with a white-yellow skinny tie, called an obijime, and in the middle of that is a small gold-orange costume jewelry beetle pin. Just nestled above/behind the obi is a yellow-orange obiage, which is a scarf-like decoration.

If I hear a podcaster solemnly intone "this is yet another unprecedented move by Trump as we creep ever closer toward authoritarianism," before *immediately* launching into yet another insincere plug for organic dog food I am going to scream.

In Japanese art, subjects inspired by nature — known as kacho fugetsu (“flowers, birds, wind and moon,” evoking landscapes and the changing seasons) — have long been central themes.

Cartoonist Jesse Duquette honored the guy who escaped ICE on his bike with a new cartoon.

Cartoon with a white background on the left and a black silhouette of a man on a bike with the word ANTI in black lettering at the top. On the right 1/3 it’s a black background with a heavy white figure with ICE written across his chest and it says FA at the top.

Photo I sent my local library event coordinator asking if I can hand this out as a coloring sheet for free at their mini comix event I'm tabling at in two weeks. #maythecattaxworkinmyfortune #Derpy #KpopDemonHunters #Halloween

Photo of a printed b&w lineart drawing and a cat on top of a patchwork quilt. The drawing is of Derpy the tiger from Kpop Demon Hunters curiously and gently tilting a wee jack-o'-lantern with his one huge left paw. Soosie the bird is unimpressed as usual. Beans the irl cat is curious but unimpressed it's not something to eat.

I made what I felt like was a fun, creative bread bake - a black challah rolled into the shape of a cat. I posted it on some subreddits, and while 50-60% of the comments were nice, the rest were braindead comments that emotionally destroyed me. I haven't felt so dead inside in such a long time.
