Everyone's out of the hot tub, rinsed, filed, and brushed. Allow me to introduce my hides for this season!

Can't make it out this weekend, but I'll have a preview up soon!
Not to leave you empty-handed, if you're looking for something to listen to while you're hunting/hiding, I made a year of the horse playlist. Enjoy!

It's not the straw that stirs the drink, but it is the graphite rod that scrapes the dross? Not quite the same ring to it...

I had to simplify a bit this year, but I'm pretty happy with the designs I'm rolling with.
Not quite ready to show them off in full, but I'm getting too antsy not to do a little sneak peek!

Looks like things are slowly starting for #monkeyshines2026!
People scattered across social media last year. I stand by leaving Twitter, but the fragmentation is a drag.
What's your social media plan this year? Where are you checking? Where are you posting? Mostly, is it worth staying on Bluesky?
