Hello, BlueSky. My name is Herrington, and I'm an artist-writer who focuses heavily on the theme of "what love means." I'd like to write a book someday; stroll with me while I make the journey, if you like.

Please note: While mostly SFW, my work contains dark themes aplenty. Thanks for visiting.
A lineup of my main characters. From left to right: Lukas, Johannes, Greta, and two versions of Florian (one older, one younger). Greta and Lukas hanging out around the Goethe-Schiller statue in Weimar. Lukas is leaning against the back, aware of his observer, while Greta peers around the front. Overlapping figures of some of my characters. Beginning in the top left corner and going clockwise: Auclair, Hansel, Wolf, Wilhelm, Florian, James, Kevin, and Ottilie.

Today is the day to repost this meme about International Men's Day, one of the most unironically wholesome memes that has ever been made.

Shoutout to all my fellow champs, chiefs, and kings. ✊
Nerdy kid at keyboard: Hi guys, I've noticed that it is International Men's Day today, and I'm confused. Why do we need a day to talk about men? We're not a marginalised group like women, queer people, or people of colour. The media is already full of stories about men. Big buff shirtless dude at keyboard: I'm glad you asked, champ. Whatever your view on men's place in society, it's still true that we face a lot of issues - like social isolation, risk of suicide, health problems, and attitudes towards sex and child rearing. Having a day to talk about those doesn't take away from anyone else's problems. In fact, having a day to talk about them helps us be more mindful, and listen better at other times. Second shirtless buff dude on a couch at his laptop: The chief here is really on to something. I want to echo what he said, and also point out that the idea we should remain silent about our problems actually contributes to a lot of our issues. We are human beings, with human needs. Seeking mutual support and understanding isn't the same thing as placing a burden on others. Especially if we're providing it for each other. Third buff dude at his laptop: Right on, my fellow kings. We've inherited a social legacy of competition and division, and a lot of what makes a man in our era is under question. IMD is a chance for us to examine and rethink what we are together, and build the bonds of solidarity and support that will make a better way possible - like in this meme. Because in our hearts, we're all curious kids and buff guys on keyboards.

younger male altar server being groped by an older priest in a sickly colored church with blood red votive candles and a marian statue in the background. both are 18+ please note the server's adam's apple frankly he looks older than the artist and the artist is at least old enough to drink which is what the puritan internet is driving them to do at this point

This is not something I want to do, but as someone who was food insecure for a long time, here are some ways to get the most out of what you can get.

-if you have dietary restrictions or food aversions, spend some time thinking about what foods are safe. It sounds obvious, but—

a mirror shot of an older woman cradling the face of a younger man, who's been made up and adorned with jewels. a large diamond earring is bleeding as if it's just been pierced, and there are mascara tears running down his cheek.

Amanita dracomycetes
Digital drawing of a creature, possibly dragon, with 4 wing-like appendages and 2 hind legs. The top of the creature is covered in a bright red hide dotted with white spots, not unlike an Amanita muscaria. The bottom is a pale beige-white, with gills visible under the wings and neck flaps. It has a long prehensile tail.

To be honest, recent developments have turned me off from using this website as much. I'll still post here for now, but I'll probably start using Tumblr ad Dreamwidth more (besides, I like having the space for longer entries). This is still good for finding and supporting indie works, though.

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read.

They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.
