Pen sketch of a very fluffy cat sitting on a Roomba & looking at the viewer. The Roomba is saying "Whirrrr!" There is a caption below saying "Thanks to Mattyboy555 on Reddit for photo inspiration"

Sweep, day 10 of #inktober #inktober2025

I just bought & (re)watched the BluRay of that. Still a great movie.

Pen sketch of a balanced seesaw (teeter-totter) that has an elephant sitting on the left and a big group of cats on the right. (I'm not sure if it's a small elephant or a bunch of big cats)

Heavy, day 9 of #inktober #inktober2025

Pen sketch of a stout female Dwarf with green hair & beard. She's blowing into a set of bagpipes, which she is holding. She's wearing a plaid skirt (with green & black pattern) and large boots. Her nondescript shirt has big cuffs. Behind her is a Jobs board with a partial sign saying "ANTED ARRIOR, ZARD, BARD. CAMPAIGN!" The sketch also says "OLIVE EVERGREEN JOINING HER FIRST CAMPAIGN!"

Reckless, day 8 of #inktober #inktober2025 I have some senior boys who want to try D&D during our enrichment period, and I've always wanted to play it too. So we're working on our characters. Meet Olive Evergreen, my Dwarf bard. She's excited to be on her first campaign! Even if it is reckless...

LOL, and I fucked up that completely....

Oh Mags, just let it be, already! ;-)

Pen sketch of a starry sky (Pisces constellation) over a body of water. In the foreground is an orange starfish laying on a rock.

Starfish, day 7 of #inktober #inktober2025

Ink drawing of "Hawkeye" Pierce from M*A*S*H leaning to the side with a martini glass in hand. His jacket & shirt are lightly shaded with two shades of green. Text includes the character's name & series and "Apologies to Alan Alda" (I didn't think the drawing did him justice).

Pierce, day 6 of #inktober, #inktober2025

Pen sketch (with pencil guides) of a deer with a funky snout (OK, so I didn't get that right). It has a large rank of antlers. "Thanks to How2DrawAnimals YouTube Channel for tutorial!"

Deer, day 5 of #inktober #inktober2025

Pen sketch of a moonlit night over a body of water wherein lurks an alligator (only eye & snout apparent). Lots of horizontal lines to try and indicate the murky skies & water.

A view of the moon from a telescope. The moon is almost full and takes up most of the vertical space of the image.

Murky, day 4 of #inktober #inktober2025 (it was also International Observe the Moon Night, so I've included a shot of the moon I took last night at our outreach. Unistellar EVScope 2.)

Happy International Observe the Egg Night! My local Stargazers group is setting up telescopes (me included, with the school's Unistellar scope) in the plaza of downtown Troy. Should be a fun night!

on her chest, for her lips, and for her hair. Text reads that the image was inspired by a playing card sticker designed by PunTime.

Crown, Day 3 of #inktober #inktober2025

A pen sketch of an orange and black orb weaver (Araneidae) and her spiral web.

Weave, Day 2 of #inktober #inktober2025

Now I want to rewatch Lovejoy!

Pen sketch of 4 mustaches of famous people. A large and long one of Count Gaishi Nagaoka, the thin upturned one of Salvador Dalí, the bushy downward U of Mark Twain, and the pencil 'stashe of Vincent Price.

Day 1 of #inktober #inktober2025 Mustache

Mine's about that old too. I've had a vanity domain for MUCH longer than I've had vanity plates on my car. Heh.

Photo of one wall shelf of my books in my library with books organized by subject with library labels. Sigur Rós is playing on the sound system, but that's not visible in the image.

There's a part of me that wishes my library was more "Bookstore with too many books" like yours than "an anal retentive person lives here" like mine.

What movie do you consider perfect?

Member berries? Sounds like a euphemism for testicles...

Love Tron! And the best bits of Legacy IMO are the music & the DVD extras with Bruce Boxleitner

That Circus Episode of Doctor Who (been watching season 25 BluRay)

TCEoDW of course.

If you see this, post a chef

Super duper poopers! (My two cats are also SDPers)

I think I probably heard this parody first. And when I heard the song it was based on, I discovered I liked the parody more. Heh.

There's a house in the next town over that's been moved twice in its lifetime. Once when my mum was a youngster, and once when I was a youngster. It's a 2 story house with an attic.

Slightly diminished a band: Sweat Shop Boys

Princess is *not* a demotion! But I agree with the others! :-)

I was going to suggest this one too. The movie sucked but the music & DVD extras (a lot more Bruce Boxleitner) made it worth it.

Oooh! There's a version in lavender. Just ordered! Thanks!
