i do think there should be a post office for people who know how to use a post office and a separate post office for The Others

tbh i’m not really a huge horror movie fan (but there are some i do love!) but their characters have been fun to make as Furbys with Halloween coming up.

here are two i finished in the past week: Billy the puppet from Saw and Beetlejuice AKA Beetlefurb.

they’re up for adoption: garlicfurb.etsy.com

a 1998 McFurby toy that has been custom painted to look like Billy the puppet / Jigsaw from Saw. there is a photo filter that makes it look like the photo is from a VHS tape.

the Beetlejuice movie cover’s night sky, moon, and hill remade with Canva clipart, but instead of the house and main characters, there is a 1998 McFurby painted green, black, and off-white to look like Beetlejuice. There is moss attached to his face and ears. The title above says “Beetlefurb”

a side view of Beetlefurb that shows his lime green mane and tail, and that his back is painted black and white vertical striped

i made a new profile pic for my furby insta. procreate is good at making it look like i know what i’m doing 🧄

on a pale green background is a digital
painting of a garlic bulb that has a Furby face on it. the furby also has pale green eyes and there are little swoopy accent designs around the garlicfurb in green, pink, and orange.

i just took my phone out of my pants pocket at my work desk & my weed pen came out with it & fell onto the floor & it reminded me of the PWHL game i attended in Detroit where i reached into my jacket pocket for my phone & a tampon came out with it & flew thru the air to land a couple feet away.

Whatever you do, please don’t stop reading.

Read for joy. Read for education. Read for resistance. Read banned books. Read books by marginalized authors. Read about experiences that differ from your own.

Just. Keep. Reading.

the hysteria has gone off the rails so far that the average american thinks 1 in 5 people are transgender. pure absolute insanity that is driving the current lavender scare

one of the fairy dusters at Ren Fest & i shared a moment of “that thing only the two of us just witnessed was weird, right?” & then she gave me a free dusting & i’ve showered twice since then & still have purple glitter on me. (this is not a complaint - i kinda love it tbh.)

i also customize Happy Meal Furbys. i have the top two premade and can do requests like replicating your dog or the goose on the cover of your poetry book 👀

a happy meal furby painted different shades of green. it has a toadstool as a hat with moss coming out from beneath it. the furby sits in a hollow of a tree

a happy meal furby painted green and brown with mushrooms, moss, and snails

a chiweenie dog sleeping and a happy meal Furby painted similar to the dog

the poetry book “It’s all too much I’m ready to become a Canada Goose” by Henry Kneiszel with a cover that features a canada goose wearing a gray hat. next to the book is a happy meal furby painted to look like a goose, wearing a hat. it has a clay beak to look more goose-like

i have property taxes due on the 14th & my dog is getting surgery on the 30th so if anyone ever really wanted to buy some upcycled memento mori type of jewelry for yourself or someone goth and/or weird in your life, now is the perfect time: garlicfurb.etsy.com

three watches that have been turned into shadow box bracelets, the first has a gold colored face with moss and three bones inside, the second has a silver colored face with bones, a butterfly wing, and floral paper inside, and the third i’d white with a silver colored face and has a bone and a tiny rose drawing from a vintage matchbook inside.

five bracelets that used to be watches. the first two are silver colored and one has cracked eggshell and a tooth inside, the second has bones and a vintage postage stamp inside. the third is purple with a blue pink gradient as a background behind a bone, a shard of quartz, and a dried flower. the fourth and fifth are silver colored and the fourth has two tiny jaw bones and a postage stamp inside, the fifth has abalone and an antique photo of a woman and a girl in a boat inside.

This is a pretty eye-opening thread.

I'm supremely mad and I'm going to rant about it.

I have a podcast. It's hosted by ACast. They do dynamic insertion ads prior to the show, which I've enabled. These are basically the commercials you might hear before the show starts.

i’m trying to make my coworker’s dog into a Furby. i think i made her too dark so i’m going to have to play around with that but i’m very excited to give it to her next week. ☺️

Tiny the chiweenie taking a nap. she is brown and tan and has big ol’ ears like a Furby does

my mom asked me to come over to feed her foster kitten for her tomorrow while she’s away and i have a sneaking suspicion that she’s asking me to do that so that i’ll fall in love and end up adopting the lil fur ball
