I am, on my best days, a chaotic jumble of chronic illnesses and sarcasm stuffed into a dress.

Gamer, forever DM, avid reader of all sapphic sci-fi, unionist. Sometimes I make things out of fabric. I never use a thimble.

Very gay. Very Free Palestine.
Fan Expo day 4! So much great cosplay today. My fave has been Helly R, and I swear it's not just because she gave me a perk. 🤭

Other highlights have been all the E33 Baguette crews, the indie game rep with In Stars and Time, and all the Apothecary Diaries. 💜

Fan Expo day three! Starting today screwing up my own coffee order, ruining my hair walking to the con, and forgetting important things in my hotel room-- 💀

It's....... it's all uphill from here?

I sent a complaint to FanExpo Canada, and would encourage other creators to not attend their shows until FanExpo decides to be smart and actually keep all genAI garbage out of their shows, god fucking damn whatever Bell Canada or whatever says. It's the enemy - why would we want it there?

Day 2 of #FanExpoCanada.

Very taken with these "lil guys in jars" that I bought from Earth Token (earth_token on IG).

LOOK at them.
August 22, 2025 at 2:23 PM
We are ready!!

@huetwo.art genuinely has so much different art that we struggled to get it all on display.

@nekoama.bsky.social has all kinds of Sharkpups and stickers and prints and POST-ITS.

And I have like... a dozen dice bags shoved in the corner. Woo, me. 🤣

Let's do this, #FanExpo.

Documenting @nekoama.bsky.social bringing the Sharkpups to life for SCIENCE.

But mostly because look at them, they're perfect.

Anyway, we're here at #FanExpo at booth AP22 (near the pizza) and while I have nothing to do with the Sharkpups except transportation and fawning, I need you to buy them.

Well. I can't say I'm bringing much to Fan Expo except my personality and a small handful of bags.

But!! I will talk up my wife's art!! Which is really what I'm there for anyway.

Expedition 33! Dandadan! Frieren! Arcane! Dungeon Meshi! Dragon Age! Mass Effect!

Such art. Come say hi. :>

I have seen more metal detectors in the wild this summer than ever before. Currently watching someone use one at a tiny suburban park sandbox. Not sure what they're expecting to find in there.

Unexpectedly have a day off to get some good sewing done for Fan Expo and of course this is how I discover that I, in fact, have no particularly good lining fabric for any of these dice bags.

Tonight I made a photomoji of Buff Kirby just to see if I could and it is the single greatest thing* I've ever made.

I will now be reacting to all texts with this for the foreseeable future.

*Slight exaggeration. I have two children. They are probably superior to Buff Kirby Photomoji.

I'm working away on another set of prints to showcase at Fan Expo 2025 in Toronto this August!

I absolutely ADORED Clair Obscur and I'm dying over how well these pieces are coming together.

Oh hey, my wife is doing a stream! Come watch her clean up a Frieren piece! You can't see or hear me, but I'm secretly in the same room, merrily cutting out fabric and laminating bookmarks, like you do.

Sapphic craft night. It's a thing.
Streaming LIVE artwork of Frieren and her friends tonight at 7:30 PM ET!

That's in just under two hours from now!

Sewing prep for Fan Expo begins anew.

Tonight: cutting out zip pouch pieces from such delightful fabrics as these chaotic possums and super happy sushi.

Tragically, I don't have enough of these to also make dice bags from them.

This itch.io NSFW policy change is unfortunately nothing new, the problem isn't the platforms themselves but rather Visa/MC strong-arming these services into revising their NSFW policies.
So if you're eligible I invite you to sign this ACLU petition: action.aclu.org/petition/mas...
Mastercard: Sex Work is Work. End Your Unjust Policy.
Mastercard's new policy unfairly targets the adult content industry, making sex workers more vulnerable, especially Black trans women. It must be stopped.

Me, every single year on the drive home from Fan Expo: "Okay, next year I'm going to be so ahead of the game and have so many things made so I'm not rushed in July."

Me, every single July: "WELL."

So much sewing to do in the next month. 💀

Imagine looking over from the couch to see your wife in her desk chair intensely snuggling her cat Billy.

She has a headset on, and there's a Spotify playlist up on her monitor.

I've been creating little lore/world building prompts for my players to add character and culture to our next #ttrpg world using @storyenginedeck.bsky.social cards.

I'm kind of obsessed.

First prompt that was responded to was "write the innkeeper's schedule (involving duress)". Solid gold.

Last night my wife and our D&D party started doing some world building using @storyenginedeck.bsky.social

I was sketching out the results as we created.

THIS specimen was a deity that we designed using the decks and I LOVE. This is the best godly #toad I've ever drawn.

Played around with The Deck of Worlds by @storyenginedeck.bsky.social tonight to do some collaborative world-building for our next #ttrpg campaign. We created the best deity of all time. Can't wait for one of the players to decide to be a follower of this weird lil guy.
