I cut off the side of a heavy cardboard box that something was shipped in and I thought let's print out something and glue it to cardboard! This stuff (spray on adhesive) comes in really handy for that task. Turn your artwork into something you can carry around and show to everybody! 😉

This is what it looks like on Spoutible. No alt text in the GIF on Spoutible and I'm wondering if Bluesky rejected the GIF because of that.
