I was terrible at keeping up with posting during our Tucson trip, but I’ll post some highlights now that we’re home. Tired (home bed is best bed), broke (relatively speaking, but we were buying for our entire 2026 show season), and burned out on gem shows (again, relatively speaking lol.) 😝

So here I am in Tucson for the first time in 14 years, and it’s been amazing so far. Last time I was a diamond-eyed gemology student in a lousy marriage; now I’m a business owner with the best partner ever, buying incredible specimens for our 2026 gem show lineup. How things have changed!

There's too many fucking people in the Epstein files. Need Yakko Warner to sing a song about it to help me get caught up

Still needing input on this.
Tucson peeps! We will be there for a week in February for as many gem shows as we can fit in, but my burning question is: what’s your favorite place to EAT? 😍

So I got into The Art of Planetary Science..!! All three pieces! 😵‍💫 thanks to those who encouraged me to submit (especially @stellerarts.com )

And weirdly since I will BE IN TUCSON on 2/13 I get to drop them off like a normie? 😅 AND see the Kuiper Building/campus? SUPER DUPER YAY

Also sorry I’ve been quiet, things have been a little @&$!$*%#@$ behind the scenes.

This bobtail squid burrowing into the sand is already adorable, but please watch till the very end!

It sticks out its little arms and earnestly sprinkles sand over itself 🦑𓂃◌𓈒𓐍

I grew up where the headwaters of the Sacramento River come bursting out of the bottom of (aptly named) Spring Hill. Glacial cold and pure.
Reskeet this with your home river.

Mine is the South Saskatchewan River.
My favorite Twitter prompt was "RT this with your home river," so reskeet this with your home river.

Mine is the Patuxent.

THREAD: I'll fact-check all the viral misinformation about the US military operation in Venezuela in this thread

This image, purporting to show the US military arresting Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, is AI-generated.

According to Google's SynthID detector, it was created using Google AI.

I’m good with my first thing here in 2026 being the reposting of a poem.

‘into the open arms of the air.’
Have just seen this, I think for the first time -

Do I know someone with a good understanding of physics, who is willing to answer a couple of specific questions about the three-body problem, and/or point me to a good explainer on the topic? (It’s for a painting; I’d like to work some equations and/or text into the piece but in a non-stupid way.)

A symbol of abundance and good luck for the year ahead!

Today I reminded myself why I left web design, and how quickly CSS can send your brain from zero to murderous rage. 💀

In other news, I’m rethinking this Shopify page I was trying to make prettier.

They're going to *throw out* one-of-a-kind NASA archives?!

Not even a year since the Inauguration & we're already at the 2nd-time-as-farce version of the burning of the Library of Alexandria.

Sitting a stewing in frustration isn't nearly as cathartic as just designing a poster. Let's see how often I remember that in 2026.

This needs to get into the fanart communities stat: it looks like Shopify is the connection to this Amazon "Buy For Me" debacle, which could really hurt a lot of folks who sell fan works on their personal site. Type your company name into Amazon search right away (and maybe update your sites, too)
Oh shit, so if you sell fanart on your Shopify you NEED to email Amazon NOW! @monkeyminion.com posted who they reached out to here bsky.app/profile/monk...

Because this makes you searchable ON AMAZON by big companies doing copyright/trademark sweeps, you could have your shop shut down or worse.
Yup. Those fox stickers are sold out, but also, I'd much rather be the one deciding what gets seen. This is a weird cross selection.

Okay. Help me, friends. Besides the new painting I’d have to send a progress photo of to enter, which of the following #SpaceArt should I submit to TAPS 2026? (Or suggest another one. The top two are already framed.)
