Saw a possum for the first time irl today, so I guess now anything is possumble
Put “genre isn’t a boundary, it’s a description of what a story is doing” on my tombstone (but put “doing” in italics so the emphasis is clear)
. . . happy 2026!! . . .

Can't get the Green Knight off my mind and wanted to do some portrait drawing practice, hence.
There is something to be said about how horror appears in thematic waves alongside the ever shifting cultural fears that inspire them.
So much horror I've been seeing around lately has been body and mind control horror
If your minds, our bodies, are experiences are not our own, what is left?
figuring out that putting soapy water in my blender and just blending that a few times does clean the thing has been a game changer
It’s actually fascinating how different this movie has felt each time I’ve watched it. It felt almost optimistic on this year’s rewatch.
That writing struggle when your scared to reread your draft (what if it’s bad) but you have to to keep writing (and ultimately revise)
Lemon :)
Doing my annual holiday rewatch of the green knight. Nothing says solstice festivities like grim Arthurian dramas
Sometimes the time comes in a writers WIP where the google doc for the story you’re writing is so long you have to put a heading that says “Bottom Text” on it to get to the part where you’re writing
Depends how invested I am in the book tbh. At my most invested its fully a movie and I can't see the individual words anymore. If I'm not very invested, i see no visuals, words only.
The new Benoit Blanc movie is very good, especially if you have a friend live messaging you on the liturgical reference info about it.
Unfortunately I have absolutely not been keeping track of how many or which books I've read this year.
But also my "read two books a month goal" has been sort of blown out of proportion by my reading 2 books a week for the last month and a half reality
Finding and reading a story I wrote when I was a teenager that I was proud of at the time has taught me that a) I’ve learned a lot about writing in the last 16 years. And b) if I did want to edit it I could and it’s cool that I know how to do that now.
Someone You Can Build a Nest In is such a fun book. The shapeshifting body horror romance of my dreams. 10/10
I'm obsessed with the murderbot show already, it has absolutely captured the feeling of what I loved with the novellas
I was watching the first 30 minutes of the @iii-initiative.bsky.social and I kept seeing trailer after trailer after trailer with extremely tiny or unreadable text sizes in most of the games shown!
STOP.

One of the coolest things you can do right now is commission a real artist.
As an artist, I am at my most powerful when I’m doodling warm up drawings of dragons in silly little hats
Every now and again I listen to a song that plagues me with visions until I draw a lyric comic about it
Saw the game at day of the devs and it looked so cool. Can’t wait until it’s eventual release
Usually shiny things that dangle, like antique keys and crystals on chains and silk tassels and wind chimes
It's A-Moray
Or: What if I drew a scary looking eel
Another drawing of mine of a lil creature in the snow
Bit of art color practice

Designers at The Forge had a practice of asking themselves "The Big Three" questions about a new #ttrpg they wanted to make:
1. What is the game about?
2. What do the characters do?
3. What do the players do?
It's interesting to see these three from @cutestpatoot.itch.io and how...
