right! I have to put a description here don't I? I'm a queer trans artist on the autistic spectrum that deals with depression and anxiety. I used to be a librarian, might again one day. I curse if you don't like it fuck off.

just in case someone is curious i use the phrase "oh gods" because 1) i'm a huge fan of percy jackson series, but 2) i choose to follow the greek gods. athena is my mother, lady artemis is my aunt, etc.

Just bumped into the work of Philip Dadd, who died young in WWI. It's remarkably modern looking: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_...

ohhhh I like that! i'd have someone make me the teddy bear I grew up with that had a music box inside that played when you turned the little key. I say music box, but...music thing. I still have mine...but he stopped playing music a very long time ago.

Here's a T. Rex bored to death trying to bite their own tail. My partner asked me to animate it in stop motion, after she watched a video about the very important topic of "could T. Rex chew its own tail like a dog". The puppet is still a work in progress 🦖

I have horrid anxiety also...the very first time I did a presentation at a state library conference I focused on reviewing and a friend comes up and goes "hey...ummm you've got people in the hallway." the room was full. most anxiety thing ever. made it cause people I didn't know smiled at me.

It's amazing. Dude basically teaches you how to make Legend of Zelda: LTTP.

Danielle Anne Baum @dabaum.bsky.social · 2d

they do...but some of those books and readers need to be bitch slapped for putting out horrible information (political horseshit commentators)
