In my defense, there's so many of them It's just absolute cardinal hours here I guess. They're everywhere. All the time. I don't mind!! but it means you have to deal with looking at them if you visit my blog and I hope we can all be ok with that. Happy Sunday. .slider-before, .slider-after { user-select: none; } /*...
This one was slightly less angry at me But I think that comes with the territory of not being near their offspring who is learning how to fly. Anyway, here's some bird. I enjoy bird, thought you might also. .slider-before, .slider-after { user-select: none; } /* image for the RIGHT of the slider*/ /* image for the...
TALKIN SHIT Most of these I do for me I-guess-this-is-just-gonna-be-a-format-I-use-from-now-on photography
In which I challenge myself to draw a pokemon every day until I stop Wild few days but I'm nothing if not determined to see this project through till at least Wind and Waves come out. Anyway, in today's post we don't have a lot of icons. In fact, we have some pretty goddamn forgettable Pokemon designs. They were all...
TALKIN SHIT (Fun sidenote, I learned that this little fucker is called the "Gray Catbird" and I love it so much) I-guess-this-is-just-gonna-be-a-format-I-use-from-now-on photography
Limiting myself to 9 because that's what the format was, but I could prolly go WAY harder Last week, the 9 Steam Games I Want to Spread page was going around all over socials and I wanted to do one, but instead of "make an image with it and social media post it" I kinda figured it would be great blogging vector...
The promised continuation As mentioned yesterday, for some reason I can only put one slider per post and maybe that's for the best because I have to stretch these out rather than just dumping them all into a giant mess post. Saturday had a good daymoon, but Sunday? Sunday had a great daymoon. Enjoy: .slider-before,...
TALKIN SHIT (Oh no, two blog posts in one day what has happened to me) I-guess-this-is-just-gonna-be-a-format-I-use-from-now-on photography
These are so fun to do If you've been here a while, you might remember how in March I caught covid and it absolutely fucked my life for about 2+ months. I went from "going on walks regularly and photographing stuff outside as much as possible" to "getting the mail leaves me out of breath, what the fuck" Happy to say...
In which I challenge myself to draw a pokemon every day until I stop Tues 06/16/2026 - Torkoal Generally I like turtle and tortoise style pokemon but something about this just rubs me the wrong way. Maybe the whole coal thing? A symbol of industrialization that has caused undue harm to the world as a result? Nahhhhh...
Seventeen Days In, Here are some Blog Posts I liked Recently! Photo unrelated, I just like having photos on my blog posts. Took this back in March while the winter was still wintering and never got around to posting it I think the original spirit of Junited was more of a singular post you keep updating as the month...
AI "assisted" Code is still generative AI and it's weird how people try to justify that it's not Last week I wrote at length about how much I was enjoying the Spirit Crossing playtest, a life sim MMO being built by the team that made Cozy Grove. One of the first things I did before loading up the game was check to...
