Sadly I’m not there anymore, but my family still is! And NICE, that’s great news 💜 I never check bsky so I’m glad I remembered your handle! (And yay! yes!! my beloveds)

Omg cute!! And this is great news! Your other two postcards are up there too. I was worried I’d have to find something else to stick in that spot, it’s just too perfect. (Also unrelated but I’m from Chatt LOL, I was so surprised to see the postmark on the package)

@fend13th.bsky.social are you making/selling 2026 kn8 calendars? My 2025 calendar is the highlight of my little office gallery wall!

(The fabric is a little warped under the hoop, I promise the proportions look better than that irl)

STOP 🛑 ✋ this is a WIP checkpoint! QRP with your current WIP!

I’m actually doing a creative thing these days that isn’t writing or music! Cross-stitching an otter pattern I got off Etsy, with help from mister Eiffel of course.

You are cordially invited to our Anti-Prime Sale, where every purchase will financially support bookstores, NOT billionaires 🥳

With the awful news from the last couple hours, this post from the political optimism subreddit helped to break through a bit of the despair fog. Repubs know this is political suicide, ICE's support is crumbling despite the budget increase, and there's a myriad of ways to fight back. Keep strong.

The bill passed. It’s ok to be upset. You’re human. Don’t stop, keep going.

Learn and stay informed. Share things that help people. Stay or get involved locally, state, and country wide if you can. Help each other.

Take time for yourself if you need it. Just don’t stop, keep going.

Survive. Make art. Fight.

Our existence is protest.

Survival and loving and living IS a riot.

A scruffy blue jay fledgling sitting on the ground

Turns out the very territorial blue jay couple that live outside my window did have a nest hidden somewhere! This bedraggled adolescent was in the little (protected) courtyard behind my house when I went out for a walk.

A wandering garter snake curled at the base of a tree

Lovely little wandering garter snake (Thamnophis elegans vagrans; one of three) found on a birding walk this morning! We also found an incredibly docile female bull snake that I didn’t get pics of because I was showing the group how to tell the sex of a snake 🐍

A badly drawn comic of a frog looking angry, then receiving a tiny birthday hat, then smiling. The drawing is titled "it's his birthday".

I found an app that lets me draw with my finger, hell yeah 👇🏼 My entry for #makeaterriblecomicday2025

An acrylic keychain of a smiling purple cartoon bat.

Obsessed 😭 thank you @crowlines.net !! I need more adorable bats in my life.

we don’t know each other and I don’t know your situation, but I’m sending you good thoughts 💜 I hope things get a little easier soon and you feel like you can get a break

It DOES, I haven’t done a full listen-through of the podcast in a few years, but I do still listen to the songs, and I still play Together Again on the piano sometimes 🥹

@telluve.bsky.social @orewi.ng 😘

thank you! 😭 bee did such a gorgeous job with him

Art of a human male character, white with scruffy light brown hair and light brown eyes. He’s wearing armor and carrying a halberd, and smiling faintly.

Your art is gorgeous, I’m so glad I discovered you through someone else on my feed! if I get lucky, this is my old OC Avery who I keep meaning to get new art of now that he’s jaded and bitter and has a vindictive assassin god sharing space in his head. (by @boaillustration.bsky.social!)

It's #HugYourCatDay! Remember to give your favorite felines a hug today (unless they hate hugs, in which case, just give them more treats! )

Art from HUG? by me. The cat is based off my first cat, Uno.

So fair, I was really feral for it throughout the first act of the LP but then I think I burned myself out a little bit lol. Time to reintroduce it slowly.

New witcher 4 showcase got me missing my chaotic, witcherless, shal

Happy Pride Month, front facing bittern upon ye

You’ve played it THREE TIMES already?? Oh my god I’ve gotta finish watching my first let’s play, I’m so behind

Fanart of Jinshi from the anime Apothecary Diaries. He is a beautiful man with long purple hair, and I’ve drawn a mock screen cap of him flicking his hair with a hand

A chart that explains what to do If You Find A Baby Songbird Out Of The Nest. Is it hurt or did a cat get it? (Cat bites & scratches cause deadly infections.) or, Has a person kept it for over a day, given it food or water, or gotten it wet? If yes, Contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitator or wildlife care center near you. An online search can help. If no, what does it look like? Eyes not yet open. You have a hatchling. It's very young. Eyes open; feathers few & may be in tube-like sheaths. You have a nestling. Feathered; awkwardly hops or flutters; tail & wings short. You have a fledgling. Many sharp teeth; large claw on second toe. You have a velociraptor. If a hatchling or nestling, can you see the nest? If yes, Return it to its nest. The parents won’t care if they can smell you. If no, Make a nest from a basket & dried grass. Wire it to a tree. (Note: A few species, like Juncos, need a nest on the ground.) If a fledgling, is it in immediate danger? If yes, carefully move it to a safer spot nearby. If no, DO NOT INTERVENE! Though the bird looks awkward, it’s in a natural stage & the parents are still feeding it. If a velociraptor, has it seen you? If yes, back away slowly. Do not show fear. If no, run. Watch for others that may attack from the sides. FYI: Some babies (eg. swifts, most woodpeckers) only sit on the ground if in trouble. When in doubt, keep watch & contact a wildlife rehabilitator if needed!

Found a baby songbird? Here's a newly updated chart!
