Tried watercolor and I regret… I gotta figure out the order of operations here vis a vis wet and dry media

Maud the cat sitting next to me as I sketch, she’s a brown tabby with one tipped ear

Not shown: her tail thumping peacefully as I pet her

She’s so sweet I can’t freaking stand it… that’s my baby baby girl

Photo of a cluttered living room floor with cat toys everywhere, and a tabby cat with her front paws inside a small cardboard box as she rummages around in it

Playing a game of Treats In Box where I put treats in a box and maud figures out how to get them out using her weird huge mitten paws

When you take one sense away it strengthens the others

One way to test perfume of top spray it directly into your eye

Figurines of Brady Bunch and Partridge Family fighting each other

I have created a diorama of the Partridge family attacking the Brady Bunch family. My life is very boring.

I am… going to take a nap… then I am going to make a huge thing of chickpea curry and then I am probably going to draw comic book characters.

Idk if that will help with my layout needs but I tend to work small so I’m going to try out working in a bigger format and then resizing to print and bind. Now I am going to lie down. [2/2]

Also I got jalapeño juice right in my freaking eyeball. Thank you for respecting my privacy in this difficult time.

I cleaned/chopped/froze a bunch of peppers (bell and jalapeño) because they were on sale and because in so many recipes if I don’t have a fresh kind of pepper I’ll just skip them entirely so it seemed sensible to build up a freezer stockpile.

Reorganized my paints and put together a toolbox with my watercolors! Crucially it’s way more portable.

okay critically importantly i'm home on my own couch <3

The relationship between a man and his clearly labeled allergen free menu options is something that can be so personal, so intimate, even erotic

By Sabretooth but also by Quentin Quire. I think he tops with Scott Summers but it’s just because Scott Summers is a little shy that way and you need to open him up like a flower.

Dealing with stress by thinking about Wolverine getting railed…

christian bale's creature being a depressed possibly bisexual cinephile who goes to the movies alone and obsessively rewatches a single film as a coping mechanism was extremely funny and also way too real

Bigass headache… not sure if because of tension or psychic proximity to my aunt Christine

Kevin Wada’s artwork of Quentin Quire in the style of a high fashion/editorial photoshoot, he’s in navy suiting with a crop top and big hat that makes him look like a recolor of a slutty version of the Joker. He has knuckle tats/lots of earrings/a lower belly tattoo reading MENTAL PROBLEMS.

I’m not super into the rest of this (it’s very fashion circa 2017, just not my taste) but I think if he gets within 10 feet of an emotionally withholding older man in a position of authority his MENTAL PROBLEMS womb tattoo starts to glow

Thinking about Kevin Wada giving Quentin Quire a womb tattoo… that’s for Jean Grey…

This list can be referenced to label cards (with swatches) on the actual skeins but I’m considering just making numbered tags with basic info and then making a little Rolodex of the cards. [2/2]

Screenshot of a basic table in the Joplin app, labeled “Unlabeled Yarn Index”. The headings are “Description”, “Weight In Grams”, “WPI”, and “Index Number, with such entries as “9 blue skeins” and “pink cotton”

Idk what I’m going to do with my yarn once I own more than 100 discrete varieties. Start adding more digits I guess. [1/2]

A white Ford Transit van that is labeled "Midwest Plumbing". This is not a real company.

We saw an uptick in ICE activity today.

ICE continues to be spotted around the metro area - dining, driving, and hiding in between events.

Current vehicles on the short list include Black Chevrolet Tahoes, White or Silver Jeep Wagoneers, and White Ford Transit vans with fake branding.

note that I have literally never burn-tested yarn before, only fabric, so I lack the sensitivity to waft smoke toward my nose and determine how much alpaca vs. merino is in it before the smoke detectors go off

ideally i am going to photograph and burn-test these selections, make the tags something you can clip on to the skein itself rather than attaching via wrapping and taping, and then add them to my ravelry stash list + a separate spreadsheet for my own sinister purposes

went through and weighed most of my unlabeled yarn stash + took the WPI to get a ballpark on what kind of weights are represented there + labeled things... is it confusing as fuck to my brain that i have to note down literal skein weight and also yarn weight? yes
