Logically I knew I made a difference with these kids but it's been warming my heart so much how many of them graduated but are already checking in with me about letters of rec for jobs and just asking me how my summer is going. I want these kids to update me about everything 😭😭

a local business wants me to do a mural for the front of their store so it would be a fantabulous time to suddenly explode into dust. every time i get asked to do a mural i get so shy.

Trying to be brave right now. My chickens and I spent some time in the pile of logs where my pet crane used to sleep at night. Grieving together is an indescribable experience separate wholly from grief itself.

To grieve alone is to be severed suddenly from the wisdom only two beings shared in a secret world now occupied by the last living soul to keep the heavy weight of remembering for the entire existence in that secret world.

To grieve together is to create community where no one ever becomes truly dead, instead stitched into an ever-expanding quilt of love and knowledge with the wisest ready to both fix the fraying edges and teach the youngest how to find an incredible source of joy and comfort. The overlap between both of these transformative experiences is that it will still hurt.

By posting these raw images of the first emotional step of our community's quilt out of denial, I hope to ease our pain calmly through acceptance. My pet crane is gone and all that remains in its place is a pile of rotten wood. It may not have been in my life for long, but the impression it left behind will last— I can only hope— beyond even my lifetime.

RIP Altec TDA58, my closest friend and crane.

all she left behind were her paw prints

they're taking my new pet crane on a walk

Bonding a lot with my new crane

some guys came over chopped 3 branches off a tree and then left without their big ass crane. piper posing for scale.

They just leaked that the Amazon pride clip controversy— spoilers for good omens where crowley and aziraphale kiss each other—was actually a recording of nathan lane and Seth Green, already rumored to replace david tennant and that other guy, as their version of the take had a "uniquely electric, charged chemistry" that "excites and entrances the viewer", in the first amazon original series created by man, 62, pre-ex-husband of amanda palmer

i wanted to put spider-punk in a spiderverse collage I'm making so i found a screenshot and sent it through the liquefy wringer and then i had my boyfriend go print it at the library because he knows how to get out of paying the printer fee and when he brought it home I left it upside down in some gravel and threw a brick at it . I love how he turned out he's almost ready

I have a large collection of vintage playboy magazines i was given when a friend cleaned out their dead dad's garage and I've been trying to downsize my collage collection by ripping out all the things I want specifically, so we've been compiling the music recommendations pages that exist in every playboy magazine

ANYWAY, all that to tell you this is how I found out that MAMA BY MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE features Liza Minnelli... and I never recognized her.

every time you stay at a holiday inn or a motel 6 you deprive yourself of the local old townie woman who makes you pay in cash and keeps a bat on the counter and the best night of sleep in your whole journey tbh

my pen died while trying to label this collage pile 😭
