Welcome to the southern hemisphere!
It’s a scruffy country in general. We’re suspicious of bullshit and that includes looking too polished

Made myself a new website for the first time in about 15 years. Bet you $3.79 there's at least one thing on there you didn't know I drew... xtotl.com

Such a shame I won’t be in Wellington for this! Everyone’s favourite Mozart plus music from the Civ VI composer??
Heck, I wish I was in this choir 🎶

When it says sundae does it mean ice cream or blood & noodle sausage?
I'm desperately trying to get ahold of Dr. Edie Widder to inform her of my father's passing as they were friends but I don't have her contact info.
I found an email address tied to her foundation & emailed last night, but I'm not sure it will work.
If anyone can help me, I'd really appreciate it.
Quite a fascinating series of tiny mishaps and errors tbh
Oh the wonders of evolving technology.
If we have to see this, so do you 😈
Oh that song takes me back to high school! BRB, just adding it to my rocking out playlist
The problem is when people take the data and make the wrong story out of it
A combined banner for #RelaxingEvent 2026 and Burger Bois. The RelaxingEvent banner depicts a woman cozied up on the floor under a blanket with her tabby cat, playing a game on the laptop on the coffee table in front of her. She's wearing a gaming headset and surrounded by cute soft toys and plants. The Burger Bois banner depicts main characters Patty and Fry standing back to back inside the window of their food truck. Patty is cheerfully presenting a freshly designed burger, whilst Fry looks over at her, holding up a spatula as he's ready to cook the next one.
Here at Mischief Makers Studio, we're into relaxmaxxing. Vibemaxxing. Chillmaxxing. We even made it a feature in Burger Bois.
Which is why we're HYPE to be taking part in @rogueduck.net 's #RelaxingEvent 2026!

Hey lovely people,
I'm thinking of holding some online workshops about finding tiny moments of joy in day-to-day life during chaotic times and I'm wondering if that's something you'd be interested in?
Let me know if that'd be your cup of tea😊
