today my feelings are so big that i might actually explode, so i wanna just point you all to something that helps me not do that, which is the calmharm app.

it’s designed for folks with self-harming behavior (most of the language is self-harm related) but it’s a great emotional regulation tool too

the last days of autumn

We already had our first snow a few weeks ago. It’s a beautiful contrast to the colorful landscape and a reminder that winter is rapidly approaching.

Autumn never lasts long enough for my liking

This was the patreon print for november.

One girl said “it doesn’t matter if you ban a book because everyone can find that information online” and then I blew their minds by talking about how your search history can be monitored and sold to the government without your permission, but your library borrowing history requires a warrant.
