This is amazing😂
I do in fact enjoy tomatoes

Just know whenever I text you, there’s no obligation for any emojis or to respond right away

So many more steps! And sometimes the emails are only one word

I just got an email asking if I like tomatoes and then a follow up email five minutes later stating that they really liked tomatoes. This is hilarious but I’m so confused.

I love all my friends over the age of 70 but I get really confused when they just sent me a bunch of emails instead of texting. At times like these I really feel the age gap.

The beginning of your most recent video was masterful performance art and the fact that it’s making a man squirm elevated it to a new level. I applaud how you wielded your words this day.

I have been periodically, chuckling to myself watching a bunch of spiders, take down a man. Positively splendid to witness.

I want to make a sculpture of one so badly

Want to see something cool? I'm currently working on chapter pages for my book, and landed on the idea of using slightly more sketchy black and white illustrations to contrast with the full-colour drawings. Here are 2 concepts I've done so far...

Pattiegonia the incredible environmental drag queen made a comment saying. You have free tickets to my show to wherever location you wanna come to and I think you’ll find what you’re looking for. Dm me!

I’m being completely normal about this.

Nicole’s painting of a variety of cicadas on a square canvas hangs up with a black frame in someone’s home above a cabinet with blankets. This photo is just a little further away, so the view is through a doorway.

I always get really excited when I get sent pictures of my Art hanging up in someone’s home! Look at my cicadas doing such a good job!

I GOT IN!!

A macro photo of a colorful assassin bug on a gray twig at night, with a couple of thin, curved, green leaves behind it. The insect has bright red legs with black markings, a red thorax with yellow margins, and red and black wings folded over its wide, yellow-and-black abdomen.

A gorgeous assassin bug (bee assassin, Apiomerus sp., I think A. flaviventris) spotted by @mhedin.bsky.social at night during our recent macro workshop in Anza-Borrego Desert, CA. This species is known to collect plant resins and apply them to their eggs as a protective chemical coating. #Bugsky 🐙🌿

Keep working at it! Most people, including myself see only a little improvement after just a year so don’t be too hard on yourself. It’s taking me 20 years to get to this point.
