Oh, yes yes yes! I finally more or less got my jewelry stuff set up and I have free time this week so I'm taking commissions! For base metals (copper, nickel, brass), earrings start at $20 and everything else starts at $40! I can also do titanium and silver, please enquire for prices.

Four keychains of cat faces. One is nickel (silver color), one is brass (gold color), one is copper (reddish color), and one is nickel and copper soldered together. They each have a little rhinestone charm attached and (not pictured) the cat's name in beads.

A collar pin in anodized titanium. It is a dragon skull plus several vertebrae, articulated into a chain

A pair of copper earrings. Each one has a hammered bar with an amethyst bead hanging from the end

A pendant cut in nickel (a silver colored metal). It is in the shape of a tiger skull, and the lower jaw is riveted in place

Anyways I have achieved the goal it is kind of pathetic but I'm not sure I had a chance at that job anyways. On the flip side I am apparently very good at taking dark atmospheric photos. Once again asking how I get a job as a concert photog I think I would be great at it

Oh my godddddd I am so pissed. Going thru photos for that portfolio and since that whole stupidity occurred with OneDrive sooooo many of my photos: gone. Hate to even contemplate what else is gone.

A photo of a rosebush. It's a little sparse but has a few blooming pink roses on it

If I need to make a quick portfolio to apply for a photography job - not looking for a real site or anything just somewhere I can post some photos quick and easy and maybe delete later - what's a good choice?

No, there are definitely people who refuse to consider other people at all and are genuinely cruel in the name of honesty - trust me, I've met them. I have tact! I care a lot about other people's feelings and consider whether or not it's appropriate to tell them something! I'm just unwilling to lie

Eldritch Millennial @sundaycreature.bsky.social · 1d

Idk I definitely think there is a line where being direct and straightforward - words people have often used to describe me - does turn into unsociable rudeness but I don't think I'm like that!

Eldritch Millennial @sundaycreature.bsky.social · 1d

And they did explain why they thought it wouldn't be a problem and I sort of get it but also that doesn't actually change the fact that I *am* upset. And the solution that's satisfactory to me ends up making me look like an asshole to someone else, even tho it wasn't my fault to start with

Eldritch Millennial @sundaycreature.bsky.social · 1d

I genuinely believe that the person in question didn't think it would be a big deal (a bit complicated to explain), but when I expressed repeatedly that I *was* upset they avoided addressing it until I explicitly stated I was unhappy that they were avoiding addressing the fact that they had upset me

Work got cancelled today due to inclement weather - I'm super not upset because it means I got to sleep in and also I'm working all weekend so I could use the break - but it's raining and I've just been lounging around and I should get up and do stuff but I don't waaaaaaanna

People used to bring featherweights into the sewing machine store I worked at every once in a while and sometimes they were selling them and I was sooo tempted to buy one of the better ones but I didn't (alas)

Eldritch Millennial @sundaycreature.bsky.social · 2d

Heck yeah

Eldritch Millennial @sundaycreature.bsky.social · 2d

Right tho?

Eldritch Millennial @sundaycreature.bsky.social · 2d

This is apropos of nothing in particular but I really don't understand why some people feel the need to comment on posts about OP liking something along the lines of "actually it sucked," "no one liked it," etc. etc. Go find people who DIDN'T like it to try and start that convo with

My shoulder hurts - I think I might have a pinched nerve, RIP - and today my back decided to also cause problems on purpose, presumably because I haven't really been working out in order to avoid aggravating my shoulder until I can see my PCP about it...

And some more 💀

A cut copper pendant in the shape of a domestic cat skull. It's in two pieces and riveted at the jaw hinge so that the jaw is slightly open

I've actually received way less pushback on that fun fact than I expected over, like, the course of my career. Love to say it tho haha

Yeah, they made that one sub only for most things. Like some things randomly will do the pop out window but other videos "cannot be played in background"
