my thoughts on season 3 of HB so far? it's fun enough, nothing spectacular. three high notes for me: ✅ we got to meet Wally's family; his sister is adorable! ✅ Verosika is dating Wally? hell yeah good for them ✅ that judge was kinda hot #helluvaboss #hellaverse

a few things I was less enthused by: ❌ more Chaz? again?? ugh no I miss Rolando 😔 ❌ Cassity was annoying at best ❌ the whole love triangle thing they're setting up is lame and predictable lol ❌ none of the songs are doing it for me so far. we'll see what the rest of the season has in store

....but I didn't get to enjoy it for long, because a certain cat decided to jump on my face and wake me up just as things were getting interesting in dreamland. gee thanks Skoosh, why'd ya hafta do that

makes me feel good when peeps buy my adoptables at a time when I've been feeling awful about my art it's inspired me to make more new ones. I've been posting them in my toyhouse shop as I make them, but I may share some of them here too

if you weren't aware, israeli citizens cannot vote from abroad. you actually gotta be there physically, and I can't leave rn even if I wanted to go there just to vote 🙃

I love the look on this Cedar Waxwing's face as the juniper berry got away from it. #Birds #Birding #Wildlife #Nature #Photography #Animals #Photos #Photo #ECK #BirdOfTheDay #Juveniles

this morning I saw that the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science has a lot of wacky decor set up for Halloween, including inside their native animal enclosures. here are a few highlights

unrelated to Halloween but a lot of their aquatic turtles were doing the stacking thing today and it was super cute (sorry for the crappy pics, I had to take these thru swampy glass)

thinking of posting my art on FA again it's been like what, 15+ years now? I left along with my bestie and we had legit reasons for ditching the site back then, but it's been long enough now that I'm willing to give it another go as a general archive for my doodles

2003 me told you: down with the foul farce that is the DEA and the whole counterproductive and cruel societal shitstain that is the "war on drugs" in general 2026 me tells you: the same damn thing, but even more urgently

abolish the DEA (and its equivalent govt agencies in other countries) already and just make everything legal, safe, and regulated. not expecting this to happen anytime soon unfortunately, but yeah. it's what SHOULD happen. should. but won't

what inspired this thread? I saw a skeet that mentioned the DEA and how much they suck due to having the power to set production limits of meds people with ADHD need to function, resulting in nationwide shortages of such substances (yet another of their many, MANY crimes)

nevermind the immense loss of life, nevermind the funneling of funds into the hands of some of the most evil groups on earth, nevermind the casting of criminal stigma on a solely health issue and ruining millions of lives bc all that aside, the war on drugs was won long ago! by the drugs, of course

humans have been using psychoactives to alter our consciousness, to heal ourselves, to treat our broken brains, to play, and to explore our minds for as long as we've been around. that ain't about to change
