My turtle shelf has evolved into a Turtle Corner!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Some of the beautiful additions include: the modded mask for my Rise Casey cosplay, several IDW comics (some signed by their cover artists!!), the incredibly fun to pose Super7 2003 Figures, a collection of 2003 background designs from 03 bg designer Denny Fincke, and of course 5 out of 7 of the Dreamwave 03 comics, with the first issue being signed by the main cast of 2003!!
I had such a blast going to Anaheim for Nostalgiacon with my Roadtrip crew buds @toonzxy and @deadpool1763492 as well as writing buddy of Dragon of the Sun fame @forestwhisper3! Got to meet amazing voice actors, watch fun panels, and jam out to an informal concert (as well as crushing 2 escape rooms with Toonz & DP on the side)! What a surreal and wonderful time it was, and I hope I’ll get to travel like this again in the future!
Bonus vid of the bgs I also got signed by the 03 cast! Unfortunately, Veronica Taylor (April) wasn’t at the con, so my 03 autograph collection isn’t quite complete. *clenches fist dramatically* One day…

here's a list of programs/sites/whatever that were helpful to me when i was moving away from using spotify & back to downloading music:
soulseek - peer to peer downloading program, has most music you'd want. there's "rules" to it though and the UI is a little confusing, but you can figure it out. there's tutorials. i believe in you
cobalt.tools, ytiz.xyz, yt-dlp - mp3 downloaders, for the songs that you can't find on soulseek
musicbee - music player, extremely customiseable. reminds me of when i used itunes back in the day. has a lot of good features, including syncing music over to your phone
lastfm & listenbrainz - sites that keep track of your listening stats. i'd recommend this even if you still choose to use a music streaming service
syncedlyrics - cmd thing that gets you timed song lyrics, like the ones spotify has. there's no UI but it's easy enough to use. just grab the lyrics and timestamps it spits out and paste it into musicbee
music presence - program that shows what song you're listening to in your discord status, in case you use discord and enjoy the thought of other people seeing what you're listening to, which i do for some reason
i'm not going to lie to you and say that switching away from spotify/streaming services is an effortless task, it took me half a whole day of nonstop Work to get all my music downloaded and sorted out, but i will say that it was worth it!! and you should do it 👍 if you want to

Are you 🫵 pissed off about the Lilo and Stitch monstrosity remake? Do you want to know how you can actually make a difference in supporting the people and ecosystems of Hawaii?
Tourism is a big issue in Hawaii (which the remake got rid of the original's commentary on because it makes foreigners look bad). I'm not gonna promote it, BUT I know that realistically, thousands of people arrive here every single day by the airplane-ful. And the majority of them aren't educated on the socio-cultural and economic impacts of tourism. SO, I'm making this post in an effort to educate visitors. If you or someone you know is visiting or moving to Hawaii (whether by circumstances in or out of your control), here are some suggestions on how you can give back!
You can donate to the Hawaii Community Foundation, which has been instrumental in giving aid to the displaced community of Lahaina after the Maui wildfires in 2023. They also provide scholarships to students of under-represented communities.
If you're interested in visiting Kualoa Ranch, you can do their Mālama Experience where you get your hands dirty giving back to the ‘āina (land)!
There are other organizations you can join to volunteer with, too, like Kupu and Mālama Maunalua. Check them out; maybe you can help with a beach cleanup or plant native trees! These are both non-profit organizations that accept monetary donations.
Visit the Bishop Museum to learn about Hawaiian history and culture! They also have events focused on sustainability and conservation.
If you're visiting Hilo on the Big Island, go visit the Laulima Nature Center! They're a non-profit aimed at protecting Hawaii's native species, and they even have an online store that ships to the US mainland and internationally! (After I post this, I'm gonna head on over and get myself a manu o Kū pin ♡)
A few other tips I have:
DO: Respect the locals' homes. Several beaches and hiking trails have access points in residential areas. Please be mindful to keep your voices down when passing by, and park ONLY in designated parking areas.
DO: Wear reef-safe sunscreen! Sunscreens containing oxybenzone and octinoxate are banned in Hawaii because they are known to damage coral reefs.
DON'T: Approach wildlife, particularly honu (sea turtles) and 'īlio holo i ka uaua (Hawaiian monk seals). Stay at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from turtles and at least 50 feet (15 meters) away from monk seals. If you see someone harassing animals, report them to the statewide NOAA Marine Wildlife Hotline: (888) 256-9840. You can also contact the Hawaii State Department of Land and Natural Resources.
DON'T: Collect sand, rocks, or other natural items to bring home with you. This is to protect the ecosystems and also out of respect for Kānaka Maoli (Native Hawaiians), who have cultural beliefs regarding lava rocks in particular. Taking lava rocks is extremely disrespectful.
DON'T: Litter! Please throw away your waste in proper trash cans. If you see a bin that says "ʻōpala," that's a trash can!
Many Kānaka Maoli (Native Hawaiians) are moving to the US mainland because the cost of living in Hawaii has been driven up so high (because of people moving here), they can't afford to live in their ancestral home. So, if you are going to visit or move to Hawaii, please:
- Make the effort to support local businesses, especially those owned by Native Hawaiians!
- Educate yourself and your loved ones about actual Hawaiian culture!
- Try Hawaiian food, like poi!
- Learn some Hawaiian words and don't be afraid to ask how to pronounce words correctly!
- Donate to a food bank!
- Watch films and read books written by Native Hawaiians!
My hope is that whoever sees this post will use it to educate themselves, their friends, and their families who are considering visiting.
My background is in sustainability and the environment, so that's what I know to suggest off the top of my head. If any Kānaka Maoli read this post and have suggestions to add, please do!

Road Trip AU Update, 05/28/2025
Tumblr media
Should be working on chapter 12 right now, but of course the moment I actually have time to write is when writer's block hits me like a truck. Ended up finishing a rest stop instead that should be going up after chapter 11. It's too bad I'll have to wait like 9 months to post it hahahaha
hopefully ill have written chapter 12 by then
Here's a fun little teaser if anyone's interested. Maybe you can guess who's talking?
"Please. I have so many questions, and I know you can answer them—"
"Well, you're wrong," he interrupts. "There ain't anything for me to answer."

I just got back from a Fantastic 5-day trip to visit my good friend @deadpool1763492 and attend Philly Fan Expo (plus a cheeky harrowing day trip to NYC)!
Firstly, got to cosplay my absolute fave under the premise of “Casey if Rise got a 3rd season and she could explore her individuality more” (and yes, I have cheeky capril charms at my hip)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Secondly, DP and I were BOTH Casey for Day 2 of Fan Expo! We even got recognized a few times, which was very awesome!!
Tumblr media
Thirdly, my merch haul from the two days I attended fan expo! I was so happy to find issues of the 03 Dreamwave comics I literally screamed!! Also!!!! I got to meet a background artist for 03, Denny Fincke, and purchased a whole chunk of photocopied bgs from the show!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And then LASTLY, I got to walk around Manhattan with DP! My top priority was to visit Belvedere Castle and Turtle Pond (the places right above the 03 turtles’ last known Lair), and everything else we did was a lovely bonus. (Also got a Lita variant cover for Mutant Nation which I’m soooo thrilled about!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This was also my first ever solo trip and visit to the East Coast. What a surreal and wonderful time it was!!!

First Chapter of Rest Stops is up! A companion fic to the main Roadtrip series for all the little snippets that don't quite fit (intentionally or unintentionally so).

Road Trip AU Update,

Art by @toonzxy
Hey, everyone! With it being almost two weeks since chapter 1 went up, I thought I'd make a little update post. I personally haven't gotten much done these past few weeks with it being finals season, but I just submitted my last one today, so it's time to get back to work!
First of all, thank you so much for all your kind words and kudos! Genuinely, we all immediately freak out whenever we get an email saying someone commented. We love hearing from you!
Excluding the prologue and first chapter, we've got 7 chapters edited and ready to post— that's around 48.5k words, by the way. Yeah. We got a bit carried away. But hey, more content for you guys!
"But, Deadpool! You said at the end of chapter 1 to expect something fun in a couple of weeks! Please don't tell me this update post is what you were talking about!"
Fear not, concerned reader, this is not the surprise I was talking about. Keep a lookout for a post from one of my companions tomorrow (wink wink nudge nudge).
I don't want to take from their glory, so I'll leave it at that for now. If you made it this far through this very boring update, here's a little treat: the current projected post date for chapter 2 is May 24. I know, I know, I'm the best.
I'll see you all later!

Unsurprisingly, Radical Edward is my favorite Cowboy Bebop character (I watched it for the first time recently and it's literally Peak Cinema)
