Been a while, folks. Sorry for not checking in other than cross-posts. Busy and burned out and emotionally fried, but my head is still above ground and I'm running on spite and hope in future me.

A little math about that prison camp in Florida. $450 million per year for 3,000 people is $150,000/person per year.
The cost for one person receiving SNAP for one year is $2256, yet they're telling us that's too expensive.

Welcome to the club ... sadly we have no jackets, just our DIY pill-filled percussion instruments :)

edit of you wouldn't download a car old meme says you wouldn't think of ideas. The font is in a rough graffiti stencil style that looks like it's missing paint in parts. the text is inconsistently raised and lowered in the background is a mix of horizontal streaks of maroon and light blue on black like VHS artifacts.

I got to hold a jumping spider at a horror con/vendor's alley last weekend, and that little guy was SO sweet and fuzzy. A+, would hold again. You did a great job capturing the personality!

I made these portable altars last night: I've had one in my car for a few years and it's come in handy on multiple occasions. Sacred space wherever!

A small tin painted purple and decorated with a skull cameo and black ribbon covered in white potion bottles.

The tins are lined with matching paper in a Pagan theme and contain basic witchcraft supplies.

Detailed picture of the tins' contents: a box of matches with incense, two packets of salt, a quartz crystal, a small mirror, and a tea candle.

Thankfully, she vetoed it after all ... one less thing on my mind.

Hazel @grindarkstudio.bsky.social · Jul 15

NH anti-trans bill didn't get vetoed, I keep nodding off at work, and now I just got misgendered by our courier. He didn't even react when I corrected him. Twice. Such a great day so far. #SendHugs

Thank you for inspiring me to Just Be A Guy in a time when top surgery is nowhere close on my timeline.

No wonder Project 2025 took hold the way it did. It's the same song, different verse.
