when i lived in islamabad, our neighbour was the guy known as the father of pakistan's atomic bomb. i had to pass by his house on the way to school & we would often wave to each other.

melted cheese & crusty pasta solves all problems

a young australian shepherd lying on the floor with his mouth open, looking up at the camera with wide eyes.

our pup blaze giving us crazy eyes. thinking of you & your family; i hope it gets a little easier soon.

august reading & some wips (shoutout to tender is the flesh for being the first book i’ve read in years to give me nightmares).

i see this is my sign to finally get off my ass & read john gardner’s grendel.

honestly the best feeling in the world to finally cave & watch this ridiculous film, & then realise that not only is the hype Real, people really weren’t kidding about these two. god i adore them.

you KNOW i’m hollering for more frankenstein atticwife!

not matthew macfadyen…

all of your art is incredible, but i’m just in love with the one of song lan leaving yi city. the melancholy lighting of the lamp & the large moon in the sky, & the petals around song lan….. you have such a gift for capturing atmosphere & mood & i’m in awe of you. it’s absolutely breathtaking.

digital art of a blue jellyfish on a pink background.

digital sketch of two sardines.

spent june & july in the US & reading slowed down a lot, but i was lucky enough to read some bangers, as well as bathe in the nostalgia of shitty 2010s YA. also had fun doodling more Creatures.

a sweet boy who no doubt lives up to his name…..

a grey and white cat sleeping peacefully in a cage. according to his sign, his name is chester and he’s a gentle love-bug.

a white and ginger cat called graham cracker relaxing with his eyes closed.

a small black cat called otis peering at the camera.

met some lovely cats up for adoption today. i would’ve taken them all if i could, but i was obsessed with these guys in particular. in another life, chester, otis & graham cracker.

finished severance. fuck, man. what a series. what a finale.

never mind! it is here! at last!

dude i ordered this thing a week ago & it still hasn’t arrived, even though processing/delivery time is apparently 1-3 business days…….. i know i’m being snow-white-pressed-against-the-window-Pakidge & i’m grumpy bc i can’t cope with hot weather but like. where the Fuck is my fish bag

she’s been an avid trump supporter for a while & i knew it would get to this stage eventually. still, it’s surreal to actually see it happen! i’m so sorry about your aunt, though - sending you hugs back. ❤️

just saw a photo of my grandma unironically sporting a MAGA hat…… if anyone needs me, i will be channeling my many feelings about this into writing porn about sad old men who can’t communicate for shit.

$8 for an iced coffee in downtown bethesda… i love you DC, but come on.

FOREHEAD TOUCH. OH MY GOD.

old man yaoi in severance???
