Comment me décris-je? Réparé, mais pas vendable.

Gay, but not gay-gay. But gay.

(cats?! cats!!!)
Pinned
Two paints in one weekend and I can actually sort of see progress happening.

Feels nice.

On sober reflection, I am going to make “artsy 🚬” my entire personality now.

Please excuse me: running out to buy an entire wardrobe’s worth of black turtlenecks and a beret.
Aaaand, 25 minutes.

I am SO going back for more!

I used to do a much more international version of what I do now, and I very much do NOT miss the "glamorous business travel" part of it.

(says the guy who's going to fly to NY for a *lunch*.)
My vp just called me (on a Saturday evening) and asked me to meet him in Frankfurt next week for an important business partner dinner lmfao ok boss I will fly to the other side of the globe for one (1) lil dinner 🫡

A big draw, a Jones of unusual size, and a cattatack: today has been a good day.

Yeah, disappointment wins, but I am inspired to persist.
Barely able to contain my excitement about doing some more figure drawing tomorrow, yet also preemptively anxious about how disappointed I'll be with my output.

Thanks, brain, thanks for nothing.

I am so rusty; might as well be starting from scratch.

Sigh.

There are still delicious moments when people discover midwestern whitefolks' cooking, and I LIVE FOR THEM.
Hold up who the fuck puts olives in ground beef tacos?
Had no choice but to pay $40 for a taxi burrito because I couldn't figure out how to decant olives

Despite what the ushers would have you believe, the orchestra tune-up is *not* part of this evening's entertainment.

(unless something unexpected happens, like one of the percussionists sneaks a tennis ball into the tuba or something.)
Usher hitting me with the most judgemental "the show will begin momentarily" when I arrived at the opera 2 minutes after curtain 😫

I may not be worth much, my *silence* is worth its weight in *gold*.

My price? $8k/week.

Maaaannnn, screw you for being so good at this game yet ineligible for the presidency.
Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”

Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.

So the recession indicator's going from, "consumer sentiment is down" to, "we're expecting some mild starvation."
Dr Oz: "We project that America will lose about 100 million pounds this year, which will make folks a lot healthier."

How it feels when I'm in the office late and put on some music as a little treat for myself.

Drawing cancelled tonight but apparently on for tomorrow?

For once, living life like an aggressively uncool hermit might come in handy!

This should become A Thing Gays Do When Traveling.

Cast off up the shackles of “hotel lighting hits different” and “I’m nude in the airplane loo (and am lingering for too long in order to get the shot)!”
flashback to last summer when i made an accidental pilgrimage to that mirror.

This is where you sit down and think very long and hard about all of the choices you have made in life, why perhaps some (and possibly, probably, a series) of them were extremely not the right choice to have made, and what you can possibly do to course-correct and fix your heart.
very weird “I am Spartacus” thing happening right now with the worst people on earth

Mr. Otto tried out a new “snooze” setting this morning, on my knees rather than my chest.

I was not averse.

I was at a party and had a, “sure, why not?” moment and liked it.

Took a while after that (and a few spectacularly ill-advised “relationships”) before I settled on a lane though.
how did you know you were a lil fruity ??
