Oh, what's that? Dorian is number 1? Surprise! (To no one.) My only surprise, really, was that The Iron Bull got pushed out of the top 10. That's just how damn good all these companions are. We don't even get to any I'm ambivalent about until Bethany at 38.

My husband and I bought a house! After a year-long fight for it, we closed less than a month ago. So proud of us for sticking it out for the place we love so much already.

Been replaying #Cyberpunk2077 and decided to draw my V. (This took about a week, because I'm sloooow.) Naturally, my favorite tattoos and shoes in the game are the most complicated. (And then I expanded the tattoos into a full sleeve just cuz.)

First time trying video capture, but I just ran into a car I wanted to steal from anyway, so why not give it a shot? Maybe this helps!

Look, Jackie is just so damn proud of himself that he gets a drink at the Afterlife and a random graffiti memorial.

I also have been replaying it recently! The changes to photo mode that also let you pose various NPCS mean I spend even more time in photo mode. But I get shots like this with Johnny. (Or I can bring back Jackie for a bit.)

The Dutch Pinball Museum in Rotterdam! They had machines dating back to the 19th century, and some classic machines from the 50s that were still playable.

My best friend and her spouse did this for their wedding. Only they decided like two months beforehand. And my husband and I (the best man) got dragged into helping them finish stringing them. Beautiful in the end but my hands still get tired thinking about it. And I didn't fold a single one.

And, lastly, because enough is never enough, I also made a fake newsletter for the HOA, called the "Now in My Backyard", naming all the other PCs: the little girl with the xenomorph "imaginary" friend, the girl who vanished in the woods, the mad scientist cat lady, and the siren radio host.

Lastly is Gen Z Leila, and Muslim New Yorker and HOA vice president. Her father is an unnamed Middle Eastern oil baron, which is how she bought her house at 22. Before joining the HOA, she had a rotating series of lovers that were her neighbor's spouses but now she's "experimenting with singleness".

Then comes Millennial Griffin, a biracial, gay real estate agent and HOA treasurer. His husband died two years ago (and it's been "two years" since he moved in five years ago) in some kind of vehicular accident: car crash, train derailment, boating accident. The story changes with every telling.

Next is Gen X Kelly, a white housewife and board president. Supposedly, she has a husband--being a housewife and all--but no one has ever seen him or knows his name. All her kids have moved out and don't talk to her, so no one can ask them either.

Because I'm always doing the most, I made character portraits for all 4 of them.

This is Boomer Stu, a Black Vietnam vet and HOA secretary. His wife disappeared in the 80s when she walked out into the woods and never returned. He joined the HOA just to raise the fence height limit.

Every time I take this, I get the same answers. Every time, it's exactly the same list in a slightly different order. I think I hit "wise advisor" about 20 years too early.

It was probably our wedding cake. I nicknamed my husband the Gelatinous Cube, so we needed at least one Cube-themed item. We decided on the cake, and I have no regrets. (It was lemon flavored, and had rainbow layers on the inside.)

Cake was done by Hive Bakery, in Flower Mound, TX.

I did this drawing of Alanna from #TheWheelofTime for a friend and I'm very proud of how it turned out. So here you go, Bluesky. #WOTSkies

I once got to hold a baby kangaroo and it was the absolute highlight of that summer. Highly recommend it.

This game continues to be the prettiest, so here's my Rook again, this time with a jaw dropping vista. #Veilguard
