It smells like a headache outside.
I love that the original Flashdance track started as a potential 80s horror tune based on a serial killer news report and then got just enough of a rewrite 🎧
I’ve been collecting inspiration songs for MEGATOOTH and The Terminator theme just fits Fin best. I can’t hear it without thinking of her cruising along, coming up from the edge of the shelf to keep her belly close to the sea bottom, at ease until there’s that subtle cue… Relentless. 🦈
Oh right, that time I rode my bike to the library, pulled an encyclopedia of monster movies off the shelf, and plunked coins in the xerox to copy pages about ones I hadn’t heard of before. And also the Godzilla entries. I’ve always loved monsters.
Goo morning, monsters. Yes, she bit you. If she meant harm by it, you wouldn’t be here talking about it.
It’s a good day for a coffee walk (soy milk and cherry in my latte). by the always amazing @sparkibarki.bsky.social!
I always love a good excuse to walk to the book store. @chucktingle.bsky.social
Muscle memory is important. I ran it again, stitching two lengths of jute together. Scratchier but tighter.
It gets hot. 🥵 Still love this ych by @baphypaws.bsky.social
I’ve only tied with synthetic fibers until now, but getting in a jute tk made me realize what I’ve been missing. Plus some red cotton because why argue with a classic? 🪢
