As soon as I touch your child's library book, it becomes a transgender library book. I will not apologise. I also do pictures, mostly for @lhardingwrites.bsky.social.

For folks who don't cook like this but want to, I suggest that you think of things you cook and google "what can I do with leftover ..." Somebody has probably thought of good food you can make with any leftovers from a dish. Bones? Broths? Skins? Whatever. Aspire let *nothing* get thrown away.

I've split my crockpot rosemary chicken, potatoes and carrots into three containers: leftovers, a portion of the liquids to turn into a gravy, and a portion of the liquid to use as a broth for making rice in the rice cooker. The joy of strategic cooking is in how the end of one meal preps the next.

In Morrow County, healthy adults were coming down with unexplained medical conditions, including diseases that usually afflicted the elderly.

In a survey of 30 homes, at least 25 miscarriages and a half dozen people living with one kidney were reported.

Forever haunted by playing Sarathy Korwar at an old job a couple of times, and getting asked by a coworker "Can you play the well done you fucked up dinner one? I like that one."

Today's #nudivember is Mexichromis macropus, which feels like one of the platonic ideals of a nudibranch.
A drawing of a white nudibranch with purple rhinophores and nodules along its body, and small orange triangular markings around its foot. Its gills have purple centres.

#telekitneticart #indigenousart If you weren't aware already, this is the unfortunate hand I've been dealt this holiday season: having to job hunt in the winter while a potential recession is on the horizon.

ko-fi.com/telekitnetic...

RBs on this post are really appreciated <3
A drawing of TeleKitnetic's fursona making the shinji chair meme post. The top text reads "I got laid off from my day job", the bottom text simply reads "Bottom text". "After my final shift for the week last Thursday, my boss pulled me aside and told me I'd been let go (termination without cause) with severance in lieu of a two week notice. That day job paid for all of my rent, plus most of my expenses. The severance I got will cover most of my rent + expenses for one month, but that's it. And it's a very difficult time to be looking for a job right now (my last big job hunt took almost three months for a minimum wage position). My family has offered to lend me a hand for expenses if I need it, and I'm going to be looking into options like EI and art grants to keep me afloat, but other then that, my monthly income is now almost entirely dependent on my artwork. And it's obviously a very difficult time to be trying to make a living as an independent artist right now." I know it's a pretty rough time (understatement) for a lot of folks right now, but if you're able to give some money to help me out while I'm trying to get through this rut, it'd be greatly appreciated. 1. I have a monthly ko-fi membership (Tip Jar) where you can get occasional private WIP updates for as low as 4$ CAD (about 3$ USD) per month! This is great if you don't have the change for a commission or shop items/shipping but want to pitch in a little bit to me! 2. I have an online shop on the same ko-fi! It has stickers, prints, pins, and keychains of my formline art. US shipping is available and prepaid duties (tariffs, derogatory) are factored into the applicable product shipping cost. Great if you're looking for stocking stuffers this holiday season! 3. I take custom commissions for formline art from time to time! The reason I list this last is because comms take the most physical and mental strain of all these options, and the last thing I want to do is burn myself out when I'm already struggling. If you can't support me financially, that is fine! Reblogging/sharing my posts, shop listings, and art helps more then you think! A screenshot of TeleKitnetic's ko-fi shop.

Apologies to the person next to me on the bus, who had to watch me repeatedly making "Why are you being like this?" gestures at the uncomfortably large spider that had appeared on my bag and would not climb off it.

Carnotaur Totem 🦖✨

This friend will be available in my next shop update coming this Friday at 9am PT! 👀👀

Link for bookmarking: shop.lioninthetrees.com

#art #pottery #sciart
A large ceramic sculpture of a Carnotaur (think T-Rex but has horns coming out of their head over their eyes) done with black underglaze. This piece features sgraffito markings and my signature California Poppies crawling up it's sides and back. Also noting that the dinosaur looks rather happy. A photo of the back of the piece to show more of the Poppies curving up and around the back. The flower and it's stem have been coloured in using orange and green underglazes.

Gender is a spectrum from just wanting have fun to being back in town, and to varying degrees, each of us contains attributes of both, which is a beautiful thing

Transparent blobs are hard to draw. These guys are so much cooler than I can render them; please look up some macro photos! #InsertAnInvert2024 in 2025
Pen and ink drawing of what looks like a bunch of crinkly-edged cheetos clustered together, clinging to a plant stem. These goofy worms are colonies of freshwater bryozoans. There is a closeup of part of an individual zooid showing its lophophore (feeding organ) with many tentacles Handwritten text reads: #InsertAninvert 43 Blobfest (Blobchain) Freshwater bryozoan (Cristatella mucedo) Colonies can range in size from 1-20cm; zooids are usually no larger than 1mm

UK politics is insane to me because every time I tune in even 1% to keep appraised of what's happening there the headlines are all like "GOVERNMENT MAKES IT ILLEGAL TO WATCH KISSING VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE TO PROTECT WOMEN AND GIRLS" and then in tiny font underneath "NHS budget cut by 75% next year"

How dare I nearly forget today's #nudivember double bill, featuring the sugar- or flock-covered Aegires citrinus and the delightfully squiggly Okenia mediterranea.
A drawing of a yellowish-white nudibranch. It has several protuberanes across its body that are drawn to suggest a fluffy or rough texture. A drawing of a white nudibranch with long rhinophores and several orange and white cerata all along the centre of its back and both of its sides.

here's how to color a worm. since I only draw on one layer, painting directly over the blue and orange creates interesting tints.

The academic job market collapsed, you can't reliably pay rent by working in a record shop anymore, and I'm good at helping people do their weird little sidequests.
