Last call later today! Will reblog one more time in the evening!

And the last one! The winner for most shippable, Mr. Goodboy Cowboy!

If you would like me to draw your character kissing Ed (bisexual, he/him), then reblog this, comment, or dm me with your character reference(s)!

Make sure you include what level of spiciness you are comfortable with for that character! (Not necessarily what I will draw but the level of spiciness that you are comfortable with me drawing of your character! I don't want to draw some hardcore makin' out when you were only comfortable with a peck on the cheek for them!)

💖= [heart] light pecks! familial, friendly

🌶= [pepper] longer kiss, definitely making out, may or may not be tongue, very romantic

🔥= [fire] all the way baby, no limits

Looking forward to drawing some KISTHESTH!

I was just doomscrolling, as you do, and saw this comic panel:

Context is irrelevant. I don't even know what the context is.

But I'm struck by this comic panel because it mirrors a moment a wrote in a fic (Perfect Nightmare / Flawed Dream) where Jason (as well as Dick, Tim, and Damian) wake up in an AU where everything is "better" (but is it really? maybe).

Anyway, I just think it's funny that Jason has also woken up in swanky digs, in a relative state of undress, in the comics too.

For Prospective Readers:

fic ships: Birdflash, JayRoy, TimKon.

(current) series ships: the above, DamiJon, future SuperBat (I only just realized I neither finished nor posted that bit tho)

warnings: not Talia friendly, not finished, dubious consent by way of sudden au shift?, unreliable writer who doesn't update as much as he'd like (but each part of the series is pretty self-contained).

i hate lineart so bad. i'm running away to join the circus (only sketch lines or lineless art from now on)

The more I learn about the latest ""writing" the edgelord dudebros at DC have been doing for Batman, the more disappointed I am. And, man? I thought I stopped being able to be disappointed by those dumbasses back during the Ric thing. Man was I wrong. Haha lmao. MAN was I wrong.

This. This right here. This is why I don't keep up with comics. If I'm always behind, I can binge past the shit I don't like, whenever I like. If I'm caught up? I'm stuck with stupid ass bullshit like psychic lobotomization. Done by Bruce. To his son. Haha. Hah. Fucking HELL. Big nope.

No one tell me the writers of these. My shit list is too long already. (half a joke, half serious)

yaaaay going to the library, reading the back half of my Bazin collection, finishing 1 other reading + getting a start on tuesday work, doing a little fic work if have time, then -> sit in on workshop (leave after 1 hour if want) then -> seeing a play later (🎉 birthday present to self)

It's been a long time coming: I'm putting in my 2 weeks.

The timing sucks; there's no worse time than right now to be unemployed, but there's never a good time to be unemployed and I can't be any more burnt out than I already am. The steady enshittification of my company is completed with the restructuring they're doing and the new boundaries of "do less with more" they're pushing, and that, along with the untenable place I am at with a specific co-worker, have got me outtie five thousand. I'm burnt out.

It sucks. The last 7 years have been good. Got to work with a lot of really great people. Got to do a lot of helping. Really got to make a difference. Also the benefits of this job are nothing to sneeze at. But I just can't do it anymore; it's not worth it.

I do the inverse, completely on opposite, bc I do not want to be later than I know I'll already be, when I'm approximating when I'll get somewhere. (That is to say: I'm only making this kind of approximation if I'm already or already going to be late somewhere.)

Who in the fuck invented brains, anyway? And who decided they should be able to hurt?? Who?? I just want to talk, I swear.

[barkingbarghest]

I genuinely do love being a part of corporate America if only because I know the rules and I'm good at it. But it is, to be clear, very stupid.

Crochet Project: Completed!

Second full sized granny stitched crochet blanket is finished! In all it's accidental-bi-flag-colours glory. Or just pretty pastel glory.

Once more: cat for scaling purposes!

Max had so much wiggle-butt. I swear I took like 100 pictures and only got maybe 7 nice shots. The second cat (on your right in the last picture) is Max's sister. (Both cats were born premature, with missing leggies. Look at those adorable leg nubbies! Precious.

Don't feel bad for these two. They may be missing legs, but they can just about outrun the household humans (especially up or down stairs) and have learned how to jump out of the playpen that they sleep in. Jump! Without legs! Crazy... I love them so much.

This is going to sound weird. I mean. Weirder than usual. But like. I have one of those doorknobs (no door) and it is one of my prized possessions.

I also have a funny looking fuse from my scary American sink (the garbage disposal) and I revel in it's funny little shape.

2 weeks ago I bought these overpriced-but-on-sale frozen breakfast sandwiches that were really just a thin patty of breakfast sausage and slice of american cheese wedged into the pocket of a pita bread. It was good hot calories that only needed a zap in the microwave to prep! But I'm not paying $8 for 3 pita breads' worth (halved for '6 sandwiches').

This week I bought some pita breads and used breakfast sausage and pepperjack I already had to make vastly superior sandwiches, which are all prepped and in the freezer for me to redeem at my leisure.
