This local Wolfdog joined an Olympic ski event and triggered the finish-line camera. This is Nazgul. He snuck into a cross-country skiing sprint this morning and raced the homestretch with some competitors before being escorted home. 14/10 someone get him a medal

Photo tips: Using your phone camera is great, but clean your lens Don't zoom - get closer Take multiple angles, landscape & portrait Indirect daylight is best - outside when it's cloudy or lit through a window Make sure the colors show accurately Find a neutral background, simple & uncluttered - plan wall, distant greenery, surface, or fabric (try a sheet or towel) Make sure the whole item is in the frame & in focus Send a closeup of any details that aren't clear in the whole-item photos Item submissions: Feb 1-March 3 Auction: March 5-21

As you get ready to submit your beautiful crafts for the market, we've got some tips about how to best photograph them:

Tried to explain to someone again today the impact #OFMD has had on me, but I'm not eloquent enough. I'm nearly 50 and because of the show and the community it led me to, I'm starting to finally feel at peace with myself. I'm getting to be who I was always meant to be. It's still scary but fab ❤️

#FandomMarket

fandom Craft Market benefitting AIC: the American Immigration Council

Who’s ready for….

THE OFMD FANDOM CRAFT MARKET?

Running March 5 through March 21, we’ll be raising money for the amazing @immcouncil.org!

You don’t know your role yet maybe, but we are all finding out just what we have to offer.

In Minneapolis, one man knew immediately what he could offer and said “Bring me your clothing”.

I hope artists eat great food this week. I hope artists read something so beautiful they get obsessed with and immediately go draw fanart. I hope artists watch an amazing movie. I hope they hear a song so great they sing it while they make art. I hope artists find stuff that makes them happy always

theres so much horrible shit about the murder of renee good, but there is something deeply terrifying about the way everyone from media to politicians have erased her wife from the story. ive seen far more mention of her late husband than her wife who was sitting next to her when she was murdered

I know they’re trying to turn this shooting into Dealey Plaza with their desperate camera angles and excuses for the murderous ICE officer but how do they explain the subsequent refusal to allow a doctor to reach the car? And lying that they already had medics there? All on tape.

Because what is the point of having blorbos if not to work through your own complex feelings about going no contact with a relative you hate?

A little under 5K, detailed CW in the a/n, much love to all those who are struggling this time of year. 💕

If good little queers leave out cookies and milk on Halloween, Joel Schumacher's ghost appears to bring you an overly muscled saxophone player for no particular reason whatsoever.

I would like to take this opportunity to remember Melissa Hortman, a serving Democratic politician assasinated by a right-winger.

Let’s get it done for Rhysie 🏴‍☠️

This is a set of four stamps to create cute mutant cats.

Dear John, I don't know why I have to tell you this today (but I do) — perhaps it's because when I look out into the fog all I can see is the hairs of your adorable chest. I'm terribly in love with you, and have been for such a long time, ever since the first time Frank took me to your apartment. I looked around at your beautiful paintings and suddenly everything I'd ever felt about you turned into a diamond or a rose or something — anyway I went striding up and down while Frank played Poulenc and felt exactly like the Ugly Duckling the day he found he was a swan. Then you came home and I didn't think I could ever look at you or to you again, all I could do was giggle and snort and twitch. But I've looked at you a lot since then, and there isn't anybody else in the world that I want to look at; or want, for that matter. It seems to me that I've been so GOOD that I couldn't hate myself more. I don't see why I couldn't have been born a robber baron type instead of a fool. Now I'm going down and set 57th Street on fire to keep you warm. This is all nonsense. I love being in love with you, it makes even unhappiness seem no bigger than a pin, even at the times when I wish so violently that I could give my heart to science and be rid of it. With all my love, Jimmy

letter from james schuyler (poet) to john button (painter), 1956. this is IT for me. this is love, it's been captured, it's done, we can all pack it up. "and suddenly everything i'd ever felt about you turned into a diamond or a rose or something"

If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

One of my biggest pet peeves is the sheer *uselessness* of so many modern men, like if you’re gonna try to bring back patriarchal nonsense you should at least know how to build a chair from the tree you chopped down

Ok you know what. Her name is Lena, and she crossed Rhys's boundaries last year and tonight made him so uncomfortable he left and has the nerve to COMPLAIN TO ROSIE. It's fucking unacceptable and I'm over tiptoeing around it.

Calling all artists for a new fundraiser project!

From the team that brought you #ofmdCraftFair... it's time for You Wrote Me A Lovely Postcard ( #YWMLP )!

We're looking for folks to make 5x7" postcard art to raise money for The Young Center for Immigrant Children’s Rights.

🧵🔽 for details!

They're basically the same character ( #OFMD #SNW Parallels)

I got an edit request from @appleteeth.bsky.social and I had to do it! First Stede, now Trelane. Some of the clips I had were corrupted so didn't make it in, but it still works 😂 Enjoy!
