Thank you @mcroft07.bsky.social for the card, sticker, and collector card!

This is a view of the flap of an envelope with a sticker on it. The sticker is black and round. "M CROFT 0 7" displayed in white, a stylized "Bodypainter" in green, and a split square encompassing both of them is displayed in the center.

3 pieces of art lay on the arm of a leather chair. The first - centered in the top half - is a closed card with M Croft's Marvel's Raven bodypaint on the cover. "Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" is written across the bottom in white. Second, in the bottom left, is a collector card of her bodypaint of a Weeping Angel from Doctor Who. And third, in the bottom right corner, is a sticker of a "shocked" emote from her Twitch.tv channel.

Good sub

An open sub sandwich with toasted cheese and meat. The top half of the sub is toasted to nearly black. All of this is sitting on a rectangular pan on top of an induction stove top.

The same sub sandwich, but closed with lettuce strips piled inside and cut in half and stacked on itself. This is sitting on an almost too small paper plate on a blue countertop with white cupboards beneath it.

This little cunt

Black and white cat in focus laying on her back between a leg in pajamas and the back of a couch, with a hand in the foreground bandaged up because she scratched the shit out of it

The cutest, most regal asshole, who has an open surgical wound on her ass (don't worry; she's being treated and I'm working on getting her seen by a vet)

A bland and white cat looking down while sitting on a plastic folding table in front of a grey couch.

Same said cat curled up sleeping on a lighter grey couch with a red and yellow Iowa Cyclones blanket laid over the back of the couch.

Granted she has only been in this house for a little over 24 hours, she gets a bit snippy and loves pushing sphere-shaped items around

I have been busy this weekend getting the base of pollinator gardens set up. Kill ya lawn, prevent weeds, and enrich the soil with cardboard and mulch, to start

Work was done today after pottery time

A big pile of foliage relieved from duty in front of a yardie/roller-bin that is full of foliage. It is all very green, albeit differing shades.

A red pathway next to a house that was cleared of the overflowing plant life from the garden beside it. In the foreground, there is a plant with pink flowers. Midground, an invasive species of plant successfully vies for sunlight (unfortunately). It is green with white splotches. In the background, there is another taller weed with a thick stalk, and a bush and a couple of evergreens beyond. Along the house, there is a purple lilac plant (not sure on what this one is; it's been a bit since I looked it up). Both sides of the garden are as neatly trimmed as they can be by a person manicly cutting.

This is an inside corner view of the outside of the house where an air conditioner and a few utilities (primarily internet) are located. Surrounding the A.C. unit are a couple of Japanese Spirea (also known as Japanese Meadowsweet) bushes on two sides and weeds in front of and behind the unit. Similar to the garden elsewhere, a tall weed with a thick, red stalk stands in the corner.

A small vase, two shot glasses, and two mugs, all prior to first firing.

We finished the campaign I've been GM-ing for the last 2-ish years (it feels like, anyway) tonight. And next weekend we'll be starting the next campaign: Hell's Vengeance. My new character is Sister Cowbelle Stankyleg. If you're using a screen reader, DM me and I'll type it out for you

An angled view from under a tree on an island in the middle of a river of part of a city skyline with a completed landfill hill off in the distance (it has grass on it, along with a small structure and amphitheater on top). The sky is blue and mostly clear with several small clouds. It is sunny out and the grass is green for the most part. A cement retaining wall blocks most of the view of the river in the foreground. What little view of the river can be seen passing under a triple arch supported bridge. The river is a muddy green color and unclear. The buildings on the other side of the river consist of post-modern parking garage, a couple of brick buildings, a former 360 Imax theater, and a couple buildings that mostly consist of windows.

Not bad for my first time throwing pottery in 11 years. I'll get to making shot glasses next, but I had to do something to shake the rust off

A small clay pot, still wet from throwing, sitting on the business section of the newspaper on a shelf.

Today has been fantastic! I got out of the house and went to the Freedom Festival going on. Walked a bunch; watched a couple performances; got a shit ton of sun; got food truck food; and supported a lemonade stand. I'm going to be burning tomorrow as I attempt to spin.... pottery, that is ;)
