Swamp Cryptid
@opalhexen.bsky.social
(They/them) Antifascist artist and gardener, 1312; upstate NY. Collar City DSA
I make art for the weird and wild, and small batch upcycled clothing.
I believe a better world is still possible, I mourn for my lost comrades.
Returned my change and got enough for a weeks worth of groceries

I made a video talking about our local food pantries being overwhelmed yesterday and it’s very true.
My regular FP alone is doing more than 5x the amount of pick ups in a day and there’s more and more people signing up. They ran out of bread while I was on line yesterday.
Give MONEY to your FP

We went to the ren faire and she sewed her whole outfit (bodice and chainmail accessories too) and I brought my sword to ward off brigands and lesbians who might try to steal her away

My beautiful partner edited the photos she took of us camping and I cannot get over how it feels like she really sees me and captures me and knows me. I’m usually the one taking pictures not the subject, but she brings me so much love and joy and PEACE it’s incredible, she’s incredible
