Gretchen got suspended, so we have to extra spread the word about Black Flame's release. I had the chance to read it a few months back and it's such a brutal hard look at cultural trauma, assimilation, self hatred, revenge, and the messiness of history. It will knock your socks off

“This luminous bat recalls the popular tradition of nailing the beast to a barn door in order to ward off bad luck. But this particular example is an ornament designed to decorate the wall of a room.”

Yesterday, @ajpritchett.bsky.social and I bought this beautiful painting by midcentury artist Judith da Fano. Turns out Puck is a fan too.

'Earth Thrower' — I'm excited to share my finished mole mask! The word mole is late Middle English and likely derived from moldwarp, which means ‘earth thrower’. 🌿 #sculpting #sculpture #folklore #arttoy #molemask

Merry Solstice! I thought today would be the perfect day to share my finished Rainbow Elf. I’m over the moon with how they turned out, especially the little sun headpiece. Finishing this piece during Pride month was very much intentional too 🌞🌈 #sculpture #folklore #arttoy #summersolstice #midsummer
