Hello there! I’m an artist, cosplayer, Pacific Northwest cryptid, and a haunted lil’ guy. They/them preferred but any pronouns are cool with me. A little shy & easily overwhelmed, but I’m trying my best!

For context, I've got £53 to my name rn.
Ash can not help bc they have bills to pay.
£10 for taxis tomorrow, £8 for buses to the supermarket on Friday, and then £35-ish for groceries (if I've done the math right lmao)
We don't have a fridge so I can't buy bulk and meal prep...

My friends always ask where they should buy my books that will support me the most and I always tell them the same thing but I decided to write a newsletter about it too, due to release in a week. Here's a snippet.

![NEVER buy books from Amazon.
They’re just an awful, predatory company. People like them because their book prices are cheaper than the bookstores. Amazon can afford to sell their books cheaper because books aren’t where they make their money. They make their money on all the other crap they sell. Amazon is willing to sell books at a loss to get you to buy from them instead of someone else. Don’t fall for it. There is almost always a more ethical alternative to buying books from Amazon.
Okay, now the real recommendations…
Buy from your local independent bookstore.
I’m a great big ole advocate of shopping local, when possible. Support small business owners (I mean to say, it’s the businesses that are small, not the owners)! Indies are a crucial part of the publishing ecosystem. You can find your closest indie bookstore with Bookshop. If you don’t have one within driving distance, most indie bookstores will take online orders. You can pick one and have them ship to you. You can also order directly through Bookshop, and your purchase will go to supporting either a [screen cap cuts off here]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:gg4g7wyt2bx2ihes6mcikcq5/bafkreib5zjeol4ethywzkh5i4nbo2ty4g3inunldzzxzuxsdezn6c5wnre@jpeg)

Some older ceraropsian skull illustrations. Styracosaurus, Sinoceratops, and Diabloceratops. I love the diversity of ceratopsian horns and frills!

I do think it’s super important right now and in the foreseeable future to really value moments of joy and to be intentional about making as many of them as you can

I have been soft lobbying for the ALA to change Banned Books Week to Freedom to Read / Readers’ Choice week for like a decade bc of this very impression. Having a banned book is not a positive thing. It’s an attack.
Just an FYI for people who may be new to the book banning stuff, when your books are banned it does not mean you’re on “the right side.” It means that your art (and probably you too) is being targeted by right wing extremists for erasure. It means you are being silenced. It’s NOT GOOD.

Not sure what it is about being sick as a dog that makes me pick up new/old hobbies out of the blue, but it was good to fuss around with my concertina again for the first time in ... yeesh ... a year and a half??? 😭 I'm so sorry I forgot about you my dear sweet little squeezy box!

Happy Half-O-Ween, my friends!!! May the scent of spring flowers haunt our gardens long after they’ve withered, the plentiful sun make the dark of night all the more magical, and the breeze whisper promises of welcome tricks and soul-nourishing treats in the seasons ahead.

Internet! You know what to do!
So Utah, having passed a transphobic bathroom bill, has launched an online form for people to snitch on folks they think are in the "wrong" bathroom or locker room. Be a real shame if people on the Internet flooded it with fake reports: ut-sao-special-prod.web.app/sex_basis_co...
