Grouping / rebranding existing flash from the ol pile is extremely fun

5 tattoo flash designs of retro business people with different animal heads smoking cigarettes arranged on 5 vertical plinths, as if the page were a bar graph. Lettering reads "Pure Business".

Tfw you're doodling on actual paper with an actual (mechanical) pencil, and you lift your two fingers and stop yourself before tapping them on the aforementioned ACTUAL PAPER

Things I'm good at: putting a tea on to steep at 10pm, hittin the couch with the TV, slightly reclining, and waking up 6 hours later to pull the bag out and save the tea to reheat after I've put myself to bed for several more hours

Two images side by side the first: a photo pointing down to a wooden deck outside. The second: a very zoomed in photo of that deck with an any carrying a cigarette butt that is like 1,000x it’s size

A drawing of an ant carrying a cigarette butt in its pincers, the butt is still smoking and has lipstick on the filter

Started the day off with my show and now I'm listening to gently jazz and cutting stickers for client loot bags okaayyyyyy

Pov photo of my lap and front stoop beyond it. Hand is holding a cup of coffee, pigeons are eating seeds on the bottom step

Two pigeons and two sparrows are feeding on seeds together

Pile of stuff on a table, stickers half-cut that read "the lonely ghost" in drippy green ooze letters, a bag of buttons, a bundle of zines, a cup of coffee, paper scraps, tiny scissors

Earlier that same day, I gave my mom, sister and myself some matching tattoos (with slight personal variations) and it was hilarious.

Photo collage of three similar tattoos with slight variation, three stars to represent the three of us

A photo my sister took over her shoulder of me tattooing the back of her ankle, I am making a silly face, and hers is cropped out and can only see as far as her ear

Photo of my mom's inner forearm with a freshly completed tattoo of her three stars with the center's our birth stone colours, my gloved hands on either side, mid-wipe

Me folded over like a lawn chair tattooing the inside of my own knee, right foot up on the tattoo bed with me sitting in my work chair

Couch nest from last night

Photo of a couch that very clearly had a sitting spot in the center. That cleared spot is surrounded by blankets, iPad, open planner, books, water bottle, backpack, and tonnes of other random shite sprawled across the blankets and several small coffee tables arranged in a tight semi circle around butt groove in couch cushion
