I work in film as a cloth VFX artist. When I'm not doing that, I make art and things. Sometimes I stream on Twitch @ twitch.tv/cearka Progressive Lib. Doing my best to enjoy normal things as we descend into fascism or WW3 T_T

we also got a new washing machine this year. it washes and dries in one machine. its very exciting, like a oopart from a brighter future.

it's hard to fully appreciate this, and other things, because the growing pit I feel about...everything. this piece really nails that feeling on the head.

It’s really becoming frightening the things that I’m seeing in the media. It’s one thing for bigots to be bigots, I expect bigots to be the awful people that they are.

We’ve seen this in history before… and we’ve seen the road this kind of rhetoric leads, something that I’ve tried ad nauseum to communicate to my family…

…but they don’t seem to care.

I spent a lot of time working on this piece of tech upgrade (and 4 others), so that I can come back to stream tomorrow.

I've started the GoFundMe, officially. I don't ask this loosely. I'm in a dire way, and I don't see it improving if I stay here. Any help is appreciated, especially sharing this post. Here is the link:

I busted the control unit for my mask cam. I designed it in a kind of dumb way, so it was a good opportunity to redesign the whole unit, and even make some nice little upgrades, like exposed antenna, passive cooling, and visible battery indicator. This version is belt worn now.

The Sacred Strand: Milled Aluminum, PAHT-CF, Resin, Silver Wire, Pat's Chest Hair with Cearka Thigh hair because I lost some of the chest hairs.

I feel like this Nintendo Switch 2 Joy Con Strap Charm really needs an explanation.....

Because this is definately the most unhinged pice I've ever made.

At the end of the day though, it's pure fantasy. Billionaires and tyrants don't end up in jail where they belong in reality. There is no superhero to save us from hellish reality. It's nice to dream though.

When I first saw the trailer for Superman, I was worried it'd be another mess of a DC movie, introducing to many things in to little time. Saw it today, and it's surprisingly good. The characters that needed screen time, got screen time.

So...I forgot to set a timer and my flask cooled to 155 C. I said f it and heated the silver a bit higher then normal and casted it anyway. It actually...turned out better then then normal?
