Hello, Harrogate

Everyone and their mum was on the M1 trying to get around Nottingham

Enjoying the wonders of good road design as we get stuck for 40 minutes trying to leave a service station

Enjoying the wonders of modern technology as Google maps takes us off the M42, around a roundabout, and puts us right back on the M42.

A photograph of a black tote bag on a yellow chair. Screen printed in white on the tote is an illustration of the Venus Di Milo with top surgery scars, surrounded by a banner that reads "there has never been a world without trans people"

Just in time for @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social : new totes are in!

rewatched Nimona last night and I think one of the greatest adaptation decisions ever made in animation was giving Ballister Huge Wet Eyes

(thank you @slowedmountains.bsky.social for recommending Vino Sangre, they did really great work!!)

@zackpolanski.bsky.social's Greens have got the establishment rattled

an illustrated map of table layout at thought bubble comic art convention in redshirt hall. The tables are numbered green rectangles. A green bar across the top bears the text "Redshirt Hall." over the map there is a bright pink circle around table D3, with an arrow pointing to it and lines radiating from it. There is a pink circle with an illustrated pink haired face in it, next to text that reads "FIND ME @ D3b IN REDSHIRT HALL!"

I'll be at @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social November 15th/16th in Redshirt Hall, at table D3b! I'm right by the front entrance this year :D

an illustrated diagram of 13 characters from Star Trek: Deep Space 9 arranged to show their complicated relationships. Relationship lines vary from "married" to "frenemies" to "each other's dads." The diagram is titled "Deep Space 9 is about a polycule."

A deeply unserious fan project that I haven't been able to get out of my head since I finished watching Deep Space 9:

Me while having a migraine (nauseous, exhausted, struggling to speak): yeah I'm ok I can do things today
Me after the migraine: girl (gender neutral) what the fuck?

a square illustration centred on two people standing back to back ready to fight. They are surrounded by reaching, grey-green, undead hands in silhouette. The person in the foreground (Sabriel) is shorter, dressed in blue, and has very pale skin and bobbed black hair. She is holding a sword in her right hand and a glowing bell in her left. Her surcoat is patterned with tiny keys and on her forehead there is a glowing rune. She is looking out at the viewer with a surprised but determined expression. The person in the background (Touchstone) has his back mostly to the viewer; his face can be seen in profile. He has warm brown curly hair and warm mid-tone brown skin, and is wielding two swords. He is wearing a sleeveless red waistcoat and a matching red kilt, and has two gold hoops in one ear. He is looking out toward the hands, his expression determined rage.

The Abhorsen and the King (and as many undead hands as I can cram into the canvas)

If one more customer tells me they asked an AI what they should read I am going to throw them in the sea

100%. Avery Brooks, though... Sisko brought me to tears a time or two.

I think Benjamin Sisko will always be my favourite Star Trek captain, but I also think if we'd had more of Phillipa Georgiou (Non Evil Edition) she could've given Sisko a good competition

(vibrating out of my skin with excitement) I'm so normal about thunderstorms I'm SO NORMAL ABOUT THEM

whoops I watched all of FMA:B in a week

an illustration of a young woman in portrait, facing left. She is light-skinned with a distinctive pattern of red scales on her cheeks, forehead and neck. She has a red ridge, like a rooster's comb, starting on her forehead and reaching back across the top of her head. She is wearing an off-the-shoulder dark blue robe, with a gold chain and gold earrings. Her hair is golden, and has a metallic sheen.

Portrait practice with Malta, Queen of the Elderlings, from Robin Hobb's Rain Wild Chronicles.

A white text box against a photograph of blue witch-hat shaped keychains. The text reads: Shipping update: I can once again ship to the USA! Royal Mail have updated their services to include a Postal Deliveries Duties Paid (PDDP) option, and I've updated my prices and postage costs to accomodate these costs. So if you're in the states, you can once again get your queer pins, stickers, comics and more from me.

OK, sorted: I am once again shipping to the USA!

Hobb really said what if this young woman had a chicken comb on her head but like. make it sexy. and we've been struggling to draw it for 12 years
