i have found no mercy, in these old bourbon hills

still trying to make an attempt to try and post here more (failing). the instantaneous-ness of twitter/insta/whatever is a real draw lol. i gotta sit down and upload images, write a post, kind of get my thoughts in order instead of just spitting off whatever's on my mind

i think i need both, tho, tbh lol



work is STILL recovering from the ransomware attack. they're basically having to rebuild backend stuff from scratch. as of this past saturday, we still don't have printing from staff computers, but almost all the public pc's are back up. but still no color printing, no scan to email from the copiers, etc. a lot of interoffice extensions are still down, as is our intranet. it's been a ride, for sure






last weekend, we went to the botanical gardens in cleveland for friend sam's birthday - tony and i had never been (surprisingly!), so it was nice little trip. i was very enamored by all the grown over archways and hidden paths and treehouses and YOU COULD CATCH THE FROGS IN THE POND IN THE CHILDREN'S GARDEN FLGKDJGLDJ which is exactly what friend chris and i did when we discovered this information

afterwards, we hit up the only culver's in the area on the way home





i got my contributor copy of 'until it breaks', a zine organized by [personal profile] knifeorchid! i submitted a greyscale variant of my 'marrow made a wife of eve' illustration. you can grab a copy of the zine over here (heed the content warnings)!





quiz that was going around twitter for a hot minute. you can find it here. tracks pretty well for me, tbh. i'm overall comfortable with my gender/body/whatever. i just wanna be, like, a liminal creature basically, but i also don't feel like i need to, like, LABEL that??? idk, i'm just kinda like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯






i had to buy finn a soft cone b/c he's been scratching himself all up behind his one ear and when he has it on, it's just the best thing to watch. he has absolutely zero issues wearing it, i think sometimes he kinda likes it, but it also means just lots of pictures like the above where he's just zoned the fuck out with his one brain cell looking like a jaunty little court jester



i whipped up a neat little brochure for folks to put around anthrocon next weekend (bummed about not being able to go) and hand out at the ohio furs meet on friday



(click thru for full view)


i think they'll be a fun little souvenir lol - inside has info about upcoming meets over the next two months and the outside has info about the local groups and stuff



books and music time!
