The rainbow Christmas trees sold out!! They'll be back next year 😊 There are a few trans Christmas tree pins left in stock still though if anyone wants one sooner 🏳️⚧️🎄
And finally, today, one year after launching my first LGBTree pride pin to help fund transition, I'm launching another tree!
This time the trees are decorated for Christmas as part of my winter pin drop!

I was sick Thursday and Friday, so after sleeping about 16 hours each the past three days I think I'm back to normal. See all of y'all tomorrow! #S16IIDX

Just realised that at their current rate of sale these mini tree guide pins might actually sell out before Christmas 😲
Probably my most popular recent pin, and one that I'm incredibly proud of, is this hinged tree identification design that brings me back to my roots as a forest ecologist. Not only is it a useful miniature guide, you can tap it to access a digital resource! canopyrobin.etsy.com/listing/4386...

I think this is my favourite pin combo I've seen people buying this week. The visual storytelling is so good #ProtectTransKids

Hey all, the team and I at @aimod.social are temporarily shutting down the labeler. I can't go into detail, but we discovered issues that could put me or the team at risk. We'll bring it back once we’re confident it's safe. Thank you so much for your understanding and for believing in us.

Reheating these bskits in light of recent news because Rising Sun is not a good movie but it’s one of the Best Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa performances, and that’s saying something. Like, he absolutely steals the show in this one.
We were deprived of a whole genre of movies where Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa plays a bratty rich playboy who has never experienced consequences, ever. I want a thousand more of these.

I'd be lying if I said news of Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa's passing today wasn't personally hitting me on so many levels especially since he was one of my favorite actors.
R.I.P. to a real one. May there be an abundance of souls for you to take on the other side.

In 2025 I rediscovered my love for music💙🧡
I felt stuck in the style that I considered "Echolox". And even if I had new tunes, where would I put them? What's the point of releasing anything in today's landscape?
Working on my rhythm game was an opportunity to try out totally different genres.

Thank you. We need art right now. Please make games and movies and shows and paintings and poems and minis. It's powerful. We need it.
