But wait, there’s ALSO a Starship Alexandria Advent Calendar!! Hooray!!

Emma, I’ll listen even if you can’t do this every day. It’s so special to me. Please take care of yourself first!!

I was so glad to hear @emmanewman.bsky.social in my podcast feed again. If you need some advent cheer, please listen. Just know it may not happen daily and that’s ok!

Ahhh! That’s so amazing!! I’ve only ever done a virtual coffee klatch with her at ConZealand.

A photo of a back of a white woman with the focus on the Starship Enterprise tattoo with a partial rainbow nebula on the left side of her upper and mid-back. There is pink, white, and blue at the top. To the left of the ship are purple, blue, and green. She is standing in a tattoo shop with yellow walls and various kinds of art all over them.

Thank you @stevielichous.bsky.social for your artistry, and for your patience with me. I could only handle the purple, blue, and green today. I’ll have to come back for the rest of the rainbow.

This is a coverup of a time turner tattoo, also done by Stevie.

You designed your own washi tape?! Whoa.

If you are shopping this weekend and in the next couple of weeks, please consider small businesses, local artists, and creatives for your gifting needs.

I’m one of those artists.

It's SO GOOD!!

I closed social media for like three hours and the Pope threw a rave, MTG resigned, and Trump endorsed Mamdani before Chuck Schumer did? Now accepting bribes to close social media for all of next week

Congratulations!!!

I guess you could call that stone, and almost yellow.

Yes, absolutely.

I mean, some of the stone is kinda yellow.
