How to Fix a Typewriter and Your Life (Gift Article) This is the story of how a man traded steady, grinding corporate security for a dying craft and, in the process, found his soul.

This is a lovely article.

Faux stained glass drawing in purple, yellow, blue, and pink of a woman with charcoal black skin with flecks of glitter all in it, looking upwards, holding her hands up. Between them floats a bright cyan blue thread with a pink needle on the end.

Photo of a mixed media art doll with humanoid limbs and horse skull/bony neck in polyclay; the body is stuffed cloth, wrapped in bandages, cord, and covered in a tea-stained silk shroud. Some silver accents and jewelry are hung around his neck.

Undue Medical Debt Homepage Undue Medical Debt makes it easy for donors to make an impactful difference in the lives of those struggling with medical debt.

Seems like a good day to promote this charity that buys and forgives medical debt in the United States.

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.

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.

A pair of ear wrap type things with red stones set in them. A little brass bird charm hangs from each one. There is also a matching pair of earrings that have a flower with a red bead in the center, and a profusion of little brass leaves hanging from them

A photo of the ear wraps and earrings described previously being worn. The ear wrap goes all the way around the ear so the red stone sits in front of the tragus. The earring with the leaves gives the effect of the bird charm peeking out from behind foliage, right next to the wearer's neck

I finally finished this little experiment based on a theory by @reimenayee.com that I started uuuuuh several years ago. Mea culpa.

Quite comfortable and really cute with the little bird peeking out from behind the ear wraps. I feel very fancy!

Please watch this, it's incredible. I had no idea you could recreate art with such fidelity in Minecraft, and seeing the amount of effort and time that went into this is just mind-blowing.

Save 50% on Golden Treasure: The Great Green on Steam Golden Treasure is a game for those who carry dragons in their hearts. Hunt, explore, survive, and become Great among the True Children of Sun and Earth.

Aah, here's a deep cut sales recommendation - how does King Of Dragon Pass, But You're An Actual Dragon sound?

Golden Treasure is a prose-heavy dragon life sim/RPG. Complex, messy & very replayable. Hunt, hoard, learn magic, commune with nature, and decide what to do wish these weird 'human' things

Screen cap of parodic version of William Blake's "The Tyger" that begins:
Tyger! Tyger! Burning bright
(Not sure if I spelled that right) 
What immortal hand or eye
Could fashion such a stripy guy? 
What the hammer that hath hewn it 
Into such a chonky unit?
Did who made the lamb make thee, 
Or an external franchisee?

A curation of this year's #misautumnfestival lanterns in China. Making your own lanterns (as per the old customs) is back in fashion, especially eco-friendly ones using recycled materials. Like this gorgeous lunar scene lantern, made out of cardboard boxes and packaging. 1/ #moonfestival #lanterns
