A photo of the poem Love Poem with a Roll on Its Side by Stephanie Burt.

Someone special to me shared this heartrendingly sexy poem by Stephanie Burt. There are occasionally perfect things in the world, and I want to share this one with you. ❤️‍🔥

I had to do research to get this joke and it was worth it.

What a philosophically cursed concept…🤔…stuff with ice cream, fill with coffee, choffogato.

Omen.

I don’t care about this!! Why is this showing up in my feed!! Who are you!! Who am I!! Where is this!!

😂

To be honest, I really love spending time with characters having absolutely normal ones in fantastical worlds. All my best times in life have been spent in the company of folks who have rejected the hero's journey in favor of resilient, resplendent togetherness.

There's the popular Arthur C. Clarke suggestion, "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic," which I enjoy using the transitive property to explore the inverse of - I love spending time telling stories where sufficiently banal magic is indistinguishable from technology.

More tales from the world of Pelagia. This is the start of an ongoing actual-play using the beautiful TTRPG Wickedness. If that sounds interesting to you, I'd be eager to have you along!

The first few installments will be out by the end of the day with more to follow.

For your consideration - a little human interest story teased from between the folds of some giant stories set in my DnD world, with clues to how it is woven into that tapestry. I don't know if I'll expand it much more than this, but I really had fun writing this today and felt like sharing. 😊

Because of the fishnet tights? Don’t worry, a lot of propane tanks go through a goth phase early in life but imo that’s usually a good sign that under the frosty steel exterior they’re actually sweethearts full of warm love.

I’ve been on the long road back to the States, not making much except new friends, but here’s a cool thing from an old friend I’m staying with in the UK, @orangetronic.bsky.social - a drone motor with magnets and a capacitive grip sensor for inducing harmonics from strings! 😍🫠

oh how I wished I’d had detailed instructions and a 🐈 when I started experimenting with Grindr, alas…

Tbf cultivating an entirely new blacksmithing shop from scratch on a different continent was NOT a priority for the year, but I have really missed forging. Not more than I miss my own shop I guess. 😂

Love that the pot on this fan makes it easy to pan from oxidizing to reducing, idk if you can see:

Of all the forges I’ve assembled this one has fought me the most for control. Certainly it’s had the most complex set of psychosocial/environmental variables but a forced air brickpile is a hair(dryer)’s brea(d)th from a campfire. 🤷‍♀️ Only took a YEAR to dial it in, just in time to return to the US 🤦‍♀️

Upgraded this music sketch with a music video sketch, and now we get to ponder whether the project is twice or half as sketchy as before.

Doodlin’ a memory of a D.S. Walter painting outside the botanical garden at a cute cafe. A palimpsest. A very sweet server stopped to see what I was doing and they ended up sitting to join for a lovely chat about their own animation work and the reasons we draw. I love queer people so much. 🥰🏳️‍⚧️🌈

Caravan = flipped. This was so much sweaty work, it being summer in FNQ. 😅 You wouldn’t believe how bad it was to start, but let’s just say it was in the jungle and it was free. So glad to have more family out of tent living, and can’t wait to get the longhouse built over it to get som SHADDDDE. 🥵🥵🥵

You can really get a sense of what I mean about the reverb in this one. 🗣️🚿🚿🚿🚿🚿🚿🚿

Some more recording from the basement of the Metal Museum’s artist residence last year. It has the most insane reverb - it felt like singing with the power of a thousand showers.

This doesn’t feel like a project that’s grown to its adult form yet, tbh, I’m still exploring it. It’s a delight to have something to practice with as I learn what the limits are to what I can produce on my phone. 😂

For as long as I can remember I wanted to make my own music, but this is the first song I’ve ever written and composed. It’s been really challenging to rebuild my relationship with singing since coming out, and having a song of my own has helped to much.

Idk if interior design counts as something I “make” but I love for my living spaces to feel cozy, and these have been some good ones for me:

A little XXXmas present. Reclaimed from the town’s logging mill, circa 1900’s. Can’t beat the feel of heritage steel. 😘
