WE USED TO KILL FASCISTS

and yes I kicked back up bluesky to bitch about work almost exclusively

I know what you're thinking, did the bad assistant leave reviews somewhere? and no, not that I can find, but I even got ghosted by a potential volunteer today. there's no way it's me, they don't have my name and my position isn't listed online, but it's enough to give a dog a complex

so I got promoted to activity director back in April, and after my first assistant I hired was a total nightmare, I decided to take my time this go

well I've set up three different interviews and all three have no-call/no-showed me 😭😩

yeah same! But I guess a lot of folks are giving up Facebook for this, and I do have to use Facebook a lot already to keep up with people, and I would far prefer to do that here...?

right, like, there's a peace of mind to having them separate. not just because I want to keep furry/kin/fandom/etc separate but also because I want to have a non-irl associated account for being as punk as I want without my face overtly attached for practical reasons

now the question is how much I cross irl and online. there's so many perks to keeping the two separate, but also many of my irl folks are migrating here... decisions decisions 😩

a natural pine tree lit and decorated for Yule

Dried orange slices and cinnamon tied on candy cane colored string

An orange tied with ribbon and poked full with cloves

A few different ornaments on a pine tree, including a bauble with a pentacle, jingle bells, and frosty pinecones

Here's the tree for your viewing pleasure!

but the tree looks gorgeous, pretty sure I killed the audition, the nails turned out great, and at least 50% off my ritual attendees cried -- a mark of success in a grief ritual!

whew. got an IUD earlier this week, which has been a nightmare, and spent the past 48 hours doing: Yule tree decorating at the UU, a callback audition, painting a full set of nails for a coworker, and then leading a queer grief ritual

I'm. tired lmao

fabulous draw by Judah (@goatvibesonly on the bird app) of my overly dramatic wizard Nowhere 🥰

Digital illustration by me, wolves run along the ground in the forest whilst a women with red skin and one antler rises into the sky

A blessed song of wolf voices and crisp night air. Rise and rejoice with us

you and the other Leos in my home should form a coalition

snoopy but puppy

girlfriend got me a "zombie, werewolf, monsters, & horror" coloring book, which has already been a delight

wolf mama

yessss share so many photos, I love their faces

led a grief ritual at the nearby UU fellowship a couple weeks ago, and it was a definite success. everyone said they felt very 'safe', a win!

yesterday the local pride board reached out and they want me to do one for them too, a little more queer-focused!

doing the pagan clergy thing!

A creature that is almost like someone had turned a corpse into a scarecrow and it had just rotted and mummified, standing in a cornfield among burnt trees, over time.

My take on a Pumpkinrot Pumpkin Sentinel.

a ball python draped in a classic "ball". he is objectively adorable and there's no bias present.

just the snoot of a ball python peeking out from under his coils

a ball python lounging half out of his hide

nooo :( sad end. here's my niece's ball python, Ken, who has been in my care for half the year. maybe his noodle puppy face can help

what kind of snake did it end up being?

so far I've done these (she won't let me cut her nails)

it's so cute dude, there's a whole subculture around it there now. everyone gets together to compare their nails and checks in with each other about what they're getting next...

they're messy but I love 'em

a thanksgiving nail design, with a wild turkey on one finger and various geometric designs in red, teal, and browns

a nail design featuring sliced pomegranates and dark red solid nails

a nail design with red hearts and bold black lines, with a disco ball glimmer background. the person is holding the bottle of shimmering red polish.

a nail design in a variety of browns with wolf pawprints on the nails. the person is holding the shimmering brown polish, which is a Reese's and Sally Hansen crossover.

as a result I have started doing my own nails a lot more too :)

nail design that features a turkey on one nail and the other nails solid in the colors of its tailfeathers in magenta, red-orange, and mustard yellow

nail design with autumn leaves in various colors on a white background

nail design with Cookie Monster on the middle finger in blue and the rest of the nails painted like cookies

a nail design featuring pale pink hearts edged in white on a hot pink background

since I work in skilled nursing now (activities) I've started doing nail art again - lil old folks LOVE getting fun designs on their nails! I even have an ex-Army fellow in his 70s who gets his black with flames or spiderwebs
