Jack of all trades, master of none. Queer weirdo. Not safe for sanity. Also not safe for work! I post cute plushes, fantasy genitalia, and sometimes cute plushes *of* fantasy genitalia. Also books, zines, art dolls... You get the picture. :D

Let's start with the important bits. I'm really weird (pos). I'm queer as snake shoes. :D I create things. If you want to support me, there's lots of ways, try the links below! Or just try here: www.etsy.com/shop/sparkcr...

Seconded.
there's a line of argumentation i keep hearing on tiktok: "if the only thing keeping you from being vegan is cheese, then be vegan except cheese, or vegetarian except bacon. just do that, if it's the only thing stopping you" and i think that kind of flexibility should be encouraged

The funny thing is that you'd think "spark" would be easy? I stylize it SPark to *stop* the "Ess Park" pronunciation that comes with the S. Park pen name, because "spark" is the point, but nope, people still say it the other way, so I have accepted that is just my fate. Either one is fine, really.
Hard to pronounce creators, sound off!!

If you thought your family was weird, wait until you see these guys! Meet your relatives at @lapworthmuseum.bsky.social ‘s family event tomorrow, February 18th.

Such a privilege to have been able to provide the illustrations for this exhibition.

Alright bsky science + art community, I need your help.

I was p confident we could get a grant to fund our upcoming biodiversity mural in Kensington. Last night, they called to say our partner school is 2 blocks outside of their service area.

But ya know what? We're gonna do it anyway.

I AM WRITING, HOLY SHIT. I became aware of an opportunity and an ideal hovered over me for a couple of hours and then BAM! It was here in my brain. Wish me luck!

Test print! I still have more work to do, but my proof of concept is proving, as it were. This will print on a single page, front and back, and the final version will of course be in color.

This week on the blog: Against the State! Another military theory primer, this time focused on groups that take on the state itself, both with violent and non-violent means.

Given the enormous disparity in force, how can they win? How have they won?

This week, continuing in the vein of some of our previous strategy and military theory primers, I wanted to off a basic 101-level survey of the strategic theory behind efforts, in a sense, directed…

COVER ART IS GO, WOO!

Front and back covers for my mini-zine are made. In the digital sense. Hehe. This WILL be a print zine, though I'll do a PDF version as well.
February 13, 2026 at 11:09 PM
I have to actually pick a font for the MEAT ZINE today. Ugh. I hate doing layout. One of many self-publishing tasks I loathe. Why my digital "books" tend to be .rtf files in Courier New, because that's how I write the things, so that's how you're gonna read 'em, dammit.

Can't do that here, tho.

This one is, alas, cancelled because I am not in Seaside, I am at home sick, consoled only by soup.

Next year!
Get Out The Float 2026 – Hand-sewing with PVC fabric - Doors Open At 12:30 PM - Room Sandollar AB

Most people sew with a machine, but hand-sewing has lots of advantages, and for weird fabrics and fussy details, it can be superior.

Soup for sick, cold days. Potato, corn, and ham with a little cheddar and some of @skyrailroad.bsky.social 's Spicy Bite.

Also with Ged, who thinks he wants some, but with that much extra hot seasoning, no he doesn't.

Little video of my #orchids. :3 Someday I'll film at night when the windowsill orchids are not backlit, but today is not that day!

Oh no, I got a new orchid!

Here's a solo pic of the new orchid.

I need a name for her! I've been naming the phals after Greek muses, but a. I'm running low on muses and b. this one was bought for a cannibalism "thing" so I feel like she needs a different name. Suggestions?

Well, somehow the goober *didn't* catch this plague, and is off to school and then to Grandma's anyway, so...I guess I get a day off? Gonna actually chill and not worry about work. Might sew a little just to keep my hands busy when I'm upright, but most of the day will be flopped. :D
I am sick. My kiddo is probably sick. Her grandma who was going to watch her tomorrow is immunocompromised, so between those I cannot do my GOTF panel. Which is fucking unfair. ☹️ I did at least ship my donation to the charity auction. But ugh. I hate everything.
February 13, 2026 at 5:22 PM
Even *I* don't know what I am. :D
Goo morning, monsters.
