Joey approves of the new vendor fair mailbox. I can't wait to have people write cards at my booth (hopefully)!
Surrounded by general household clutter and a fur covered carpet sits a white mailbox, it's little red flag in the down position. Standing in front of the mailbox is Joey, a gray cat that is proud of how much hair he's left on the carpet. He licks his jowls in satisfaction.

Bumbling around~~
A poorly zoomed out photo of an adorable bumble bee feasting on some purple and yellow flowers. The entire left half of the photo is the bush the flowers came from, and the right half is primarily pavement, with a white garage in the background. The bumble bee is centered, but extremely small in the photo

First vendor event of the season is done. Not the turnout I was expecting, but also, wasn't completely draining (which is good, since I've had a sore on my tongue for a few days now, and talking makes it worse). So, a win's a win?
Table with a blue and silver table cloth, laden with pictures for sale. On one end is a card carousel, on the other, a cigarette vending machine.

I'm gonna throw up, I'm so happy that I finally got the settings right for this photo!!
On top of a gridded background lay the holy Grail for OP: a printed photo of a cat in front of the ocean. It is a white and brown tabby, seated, looking over its shoulder at something outside the frame with one paw lifted.

Paying artists cost money. But this icon doesn't! It's free to tell people you support human artists on your games and books. Supporting people matters to people! Make it easy for them tell!

Finally took the leap and bought myself an artvend machine. Any suggestions on what to put in it? I've been wanting the machine for a bit, but I don't do a ton of physical things outside of prints and poems. I'd love to do artist trading cards, but not fully sure if I could pull it off.

@leetheearthling.bsky.social I loves you.
A typewriter poem on cream colored paper. It reads: "I belong to you like a bird belongs in the air. With you, I feel as though I soar With cold air beneath my wings. Exhilarating and freed, No longer trapped in cages with old lovers With you, I am me, singing old tunes that echo back who I am. You are my nest--my home--and I love you."

I can't believe I never posted this here. I made this last year in January to celebrate my 10 year anniversary on HRT. (Coming up on the 11th in a week)

It's a stark contrast to what I drew this year. But it's good to see some positive trans content right now!
a lamia girl looking content and hugging herself. She is shedding her scales with the new scales underneath baring the transgender colors. She also wears a transgender flag hair bow and hearts are floating around her in the same trans colors.

Busting out the typewriter as soon as my Adderall wears off. That's going to mean lots of staring at the paper, trying to think of a better word for "front door."
A light tan, boxy typewriter. The keys are almost a cream color with the shift keys a striking shade of green. It sits on OP's bed, with their blue bedsheets and red/blue comforter underneath. Directly behind the typewriter is OP's TV console, covered in household clutter, including a lit candle.

Booked my birthday tattoo for this year. I'm excited for this one (especially since I'll be getting a tattoo with my bestie, finally)

How does one write an about me page for a website? Like, seriously, who am I even?

Medium to moderate success!
OP Holding a greeting card. The image on front of the card is the northern lights dancing over some city lights. The city is along lake Michigan, so the city lights are reflected in the water. General household floor clutter lays strewn about in the background.

I bought a used greeting card holder for markets, but I failed to double check what size it holds. Thankfully, I own a bunch of A2 Card blanks. Unthankfully, I don't know if my printer can print on them. Wish me luck?
A black, wire greeting card holder in a too small size sits in the middle of a filthy rug. Household clutter sits behind the card holder.

September was lit. January was too, but a different flavor of lit.
Spotify wrapped screenshot. It describes January as OP's Otherkin Strut Rock phase, whatever that means. OP listened to artists like Måneskin, Foo Fighters, and Nothing More. Another Spotify wrapped screenshot describing OP's September as Goblin core Tavern Bard season. No further explanation is provided. OP's top artists are: 1 Måneskin 2 NOTHING MORE 3 Bears in Trees 4 The Amazing Devil 5 Mumford and Sons Top Songs are 1 Wolves of the Revolution (Arcadian Wild) 2 Denière Danse (Indela) 3 I wanna be your slave (Måneskin) 4 Gossip (Måneskin ft. Tom Morello) 5 Fairy Tale (Alexander Rybak)

I love this photo. Wish I could remember where I took it.
OP Holding a picture they had taken of a burgundy flower with a vibrant yellow center, surrounded by dark grass. General household clutter lines the background.

A pixel art rendition of a magnemite sleeping in a field of vines and flowers. It is rusted, basking in the sun, with a happy expression. Forget-me-nots are growing in the corner.

A product photo for an embroidered sweatshirt. There are two styles - one in forest green and one in cherry red. The design is an abstract Christmas tree in white thread, with a yellow star at the top and rainbow lights across the tree A product photo for an embroidered sweatshirt. There are two styles - one in forest green and one in white. The design says "All I want for Christmas is Reproductive Rights". The forest green sweatshirt is stitched in white thread while the white sweatshirt is stitched in red and green thread. 'Reproductive Rights' is written in a fancier script.

When I finally go blind, will I still remember the colors pink and orange?

Will the chill of nightfall still remind me of sunsets?

Or, will I forget the sight of pastel painted skies in my rearview mirror as I drive forward into darkness?

-c. 2023, musings on my drive home
Typewritten poem on beige paper. The words of the poem are repeated in the caption. The bottom right corner contains a swan-like Doodle with "hand typed, just for you" written next to it.
