Saimi Hanma ⚔️ @saimihanma.bsky.social · Jan 15

I am Saimi Hanma (formerly Kelly Brenner) and the author of The Naturalist at Home as well as Nature Obscura. I'm also an artist and photographer, focusing largely on invertebrates.

You can find my art, photos, writing, info and web shop on my website: www.metrofieldguide.com

the book cover for the naturalist at home: projects for discovering the hidden world around us by kelly brenner. the central image is a curiosity cabinet with various items like skulls, shells and lichens.

the book cover for nature obscura: a city's hidden natural world by kelly brenner. it's a pencil illustration featuring a variety of nature such as a ladybug, crow, invertebrates, moss, slime molds and so on

a charcoal illustration of a sea angel, which is a sea slug which looks like a winged sluggy devil

a photo of a horned nudibranch from the front against a dark background. the sea slug is translucent with spiky cerata on the back which have brown lines and are tipped in orange

It's funny, I think we have the same mentality of expecting to lose lol

We're not used to winning either

😭😭😭😭 can't ever dislike anyone who appreciates Griffey and Ichiro. It's been a good series at least!

It really was a tragedy, I feel for all the fans getting royally screwed over. But still happy to welcome you to the Mariners!

You're not the first former As fan I know of to come to this side! It's a good time to become a fan. Especially since they just retired Ichiro's number this year, it's been a good year regardless of what happens.

Mariners, you really don't need to bring it down to the wire like this, you're killing me. I'm wearing my hat because superstition must help.

Isn't Central and South America western? Or does the west stop at the southern border? It's almost like they're saying western to mean white.
