It really is growling reserved for capitalism and what makes it nigh impossible to take time off. But growling all the same.

Yes! @zandravandra.com showed it to me and friends a while back and I loved it from the jump.

I'm picky and want to find just the perfect artist. But it's definitely going to have to be a thigh piece.

Sending in drafts while the period's hitting makes me wish I were sending a physical copy I could crumple, dip in tea, and shove into an inbox.

Because the feeling has to go somewhere.

The trans war flag.

Had some fun with this! Deeper colours than the peacetime trans flag, square, with a guisarme on it- a peasant's weapon that's particularly good at fighting anyone rich enough to be on a horse, that you can use as a farmer's tool in peacetime.

Oh yes, this is a fuzzy tyrannosaur book.

Cretaceous seas were inhabited by several Mosasaurus species, not all of them giants.

This is one of the medium-sized Mosasaurus, M. missouriensis, an exceptional specimen found in Alberta. Lizardfish bones were in its gut contents. The prey had been bitten into swallowable chunks. πŸ§ͺ

Thank you, Allie! And it made me so happy to see you here. It's been ages!

She does big kneads. Especially on this bed. I bought it for her the day she came home - almost four years ago! - and it's been on my desk for her ever since. Though she usually prefers lap, ha.

Reminds me to keep my eyes peeled for a particular artist’s books. My back’s got nothing and that’s really what I’d like to do next, get started on one big piece.

She’s doing eye squeezes again.

It's approaching two years since I've been in the chair. Fingers crossed I can get back this year. It's really my own fault I don't have a Godzilla or xenomorph on me yet.

I like warm weather better because "Look at all your tattoos!" can also mean some of the fun ones on my legs.

🎧 β€œSuddenly, I wake up, and I'm not down
Think I'll burn my goddamn life to the ground
Don't know if I will return
Take a seat and watch me burn

I feel trapped
I feel trapped
I feel trapped
I feel trapped
I feel trapped again”
