A part of me has died. A tooth, that is. Nervously not looking forward to my first root canal. I was hopeful with it feeling less sensitive to temp changes this week, but I guess it's just not feeling.

i made a page on my webshop with fabric webshops i have experience with :3 so i dont forget willowcreativ.com/my-favorite-...

willowcreativ.comMy favorite fabric webshops – Willow Creative

cant order stretch faux leather fabric anymore that actually looks like faux leather... Seemingly in the last couple months every bolt of "faux leather" fabric is now "coated/foiled spandex" and it doesnt exist anymore. That foiled spandex is absolutely useless.

I get that coming up with a fair and enforceable AI policy is hard and it's easier to ignore the problem. But actively choosing to promote this content is a disgrace.

Some observations... there was a meme game going around, and something about it felt Wrong. Nothing about it was intentionally designed. The level seemed to be made at random. The instructions and mechanics were vague and poorly implemented. It was sloppy, but not in a shitpost-y way

More of the little brown dragonflies all over my yard. Super chill and will readily land on you if you look like you'll provide a good view. I think these are meadowhawks. Saw a nice variety of dragonflies around today including a big flashy green darner. But they're just 100% zoom zoom.

The "promise" of progress and technology was to free us from mundane labor and pursue creativity. Instead it's freed us from creativity. I think about this every day.

Cabbage night gives me away every time. And grinders. No, not that kind. Vermont is basically spot on for pinning me on western MA.

Whenever they ask stuff like the night before Halloween and what do you call soft drinks, I know I'll get pinned xD

Suiting tip: spandex gloves. I forgot to bring mine to Megaplex, and wearing paws was so much more unpleasant once my hands started to get damp.

I get to be anything I want in the most bullshit ways possible. On the other hand now I'm mute and gotta invest in some cool shades.

Somehow 1 office visit to my primary clinic to tell me to see a specialist (and not follow up on the referral anyway) costs the same as 2 medical exams with the actual eye specialist. Insurance is funny.

This guy gave exactly zero fucks about me clipping a whole bunch of branches around it on the bush it was perched on. Or bringing my finger a half inch from its face.

Drop something green! in my case it's my lovely high flying dragon boy~

Strained my neck during a workout this morning. Ended the workout early and it didn't feel too bad. It's now graduated to difficulty getting out of bed or moving.

Taking this opportunity to mention Infra, one of my favorite "walking simulator" games from 2015 where you get to explore a lot of these kinds of spaces.

Always a fan of exploring huge infrastructure and spooky industrial spaces

A couple weeks ago I replaced the ANC mic in my headphones after noise canceling was acting up and making thumping noises in my left ear. The repair seemed to be rock solid. Now a day before I fly out it's throwing a fit again.

Hey at least I've got my earbuds to fall back onto-- oh, they won't hold a charge due to a well known flaw in that model? A

Are you going to Furality Ultra? We'll be performing there on June 4th, with a concert of game music from the 2000s to match the con theme. Some of my favorite games are from this era so I can't wait to share these arrangements with you! 🔗 otterchaos.band/furality-ult...

I've been crunching on this hard for the last couple months, and now the cuga suit is done enough for FWA! This suit is based on the Toastacuga model by @neotoasteo.bsky.social, with a few of my own design changes. Come find me at #FWA2026 this week!
