Finished the sign while the weather was crazy last night. Love how it came out! The perfect sign to the entrance of my basement nerd cave.

Dancer, silk artist, mom, caretaker of many cats, scifi fan from birth. I love robots, math jokes and comic books. I collect art. Grief survivalist, gardener, dreamer. And bugs. I love bugs.
My Nerd Cave sign is coming out better than I thought it was going to be. Couldn’t find anything I liked online so I did it myself. Touchups, evening and perfecting the edges, and the black edge band will be done tomorrow.
My car broke down and had to be towed to the mechanic and this is in it

I almost died tonight precariously standing on a stepstool hanging up my Batman artwork in the hallway of my basement going down to my nerd cave. AAAAHHHHH
To all my comic friends, @glovestudios who has created many of the original ART pieces I have my house is having a Whatnot auction. Even if you don’t purchase anything, he does a lot of live drawing and it’s very interesting to watch. Link below www.whatnot.com/s/jr37WLNp

Any artist friends need for inspiration for alien parasites lol? Look no further than saddleback caterpillars. These have horns and hairs that secret an irritating venom. Using gloves and a paintbrush I carefully removed them from my Meyer lemon and put them in the underbrush of the woods.
So damn…the big floater my eye doctor warned me a couple months ago was coming finally happened. Now I keep thinking I’m seeing demons out of the corner of my eye.
Earlier this week, I walked out to my milkweed I planted last year and found a dozen late instar monarch caterpillars. So grateful the work of the past two years in the garden is starting to pay off. 🦋
This is some 2016 type shit now. I don't think I really need to describe the impact this man had on my childhood and also later in life, as it will be echoed by most of my friends on here. GIF chosen because we are all Bumblebee. His voice was like a comfort blanket. R.I.P.

We’re saddened to hear of the passing of the legendary Peter Cullen, the original voice of Optimus Prime. Much love from everybody at TFNation. Remember: Be strong enough to be gentle.
Rest in Peace, Peter Cullen. You voiced the first hero I ever looked up to, and put more humanity into that character than most people put into their daily lives. Original art by @glovestudios.bsky.social
FRIENDS IN THE NYC AREA: Okay, this is a tough one, but please bear with me. My wife's lifelong friend has stage 4 pancreatic cancer and is desperately seeking a home for his two cats when that time comes. The elder, Wally, is something like 13 years old and DELIGHTFULLY dim. The younger, Doris,
Another toxic craft trait of mine is as a crocheter thinking I could pick up the Mary Maxim Project Hail Mary Fox sweater kit, learn to knit, and have it completed by New York comic con in October 😆
Happy Siblings Day, bro! Miss you more than you know, and I will always remember the poem you wrote about my face. Your face Is a disgrace To the human race. It should be maced And shot Into outer space Love you #sibling #grief #missyou #nerdtwins
Today’s fight against grief dragging me down includes making ramen with homemade broth for lunch followed by braless gardening
If you are looking to get something for the icon Peter Cullen to sign at #TFCon I still have prints available! Find all of the comic artists near the panel room in the hotel lobby!
Sad to see the Ides of March becoming commercialised like this. I really feel like we're losing track of the true spirit of the holiday. It's not about how many knives you can stick in a tyrant all at once, it's about the whole community coming together to stab the tyrant as many times as possible.
