Glad I got to Dragon Age before EA became… that… but I will never, ever touch anything else they publish.
Ravencrest Leather aka. The Nerdy Leatherworker
@nerdyleatherworker.bsky.social
I like to make things, read, play video & ttrpg games, and adventure. Games with a story. Too many authors to even list. I hide in the basement listening to audiobooks and making things. thenerdyleatherworker.mayhem.my (check back if it’s empty)
I don’t normally feel comfy doing this, but this is my friend. She’s been through hell. Super smart, super strong work ethic, and unlucky as hell. She’s stranded right now after working 15 hours and barely getting enough for their campsite for the day.

It’s finally done. Took a detour to another project for a few days. This one taught me a lot. Again, not a Ford supporter, but the octogenarian receiving this is and he’s the sweetest so he gets what he wants. #leatherworking
The manager is pleased with my work. #cats #catsofbluesky She didn’t even try to shred the leather. Much.
The bottom part of the briefcase/laptop case I’m making for spouse for his birthday. Forgot I needed a zipper so the top flap is in pieces still, but so far I like it. Creative awl pattern, spouse’s leather selection. I have made a laptop sleeve and will make an accessories bag in a similar 1/

Saddened that someone I respected admitted in their discord to using AI in their leatherworking business. Right after I bought patterns from them. Supposedly it’s just used to put products on models, but it’s a slippery slope. Good-bye, Dark Horse Workshop, but I do not support AI.
Got the tooling, dying, and painting done. Not a Ford girl, but again, the person for whom it’s being made is. Next step: assembly.
@soulafeinveladorn.bsky.social Kersei needs a bow tie.
me trying to get pictures to explain my taste in men to someone but not wanting to just google something generic like 'large guys' so i google 'husky gentlemen' and well. i don't know what i expected
What does it say that I’m like Oh I got the Yahtzee on this! With more than a little joy in my heart? This timeline, man.
what am I supposed to do with this information
I had to play too. Top 5 and bottom five are accurate, the middle gets shifty depending on how the questions are asked. #dragonage
I just keep getting struck by how, growing up, I used to think the US was analogous to the Federation. In my teens, I started to realize that was naive. Today, I am reminded again that we are the Ferengi. And I hate it.
ass out flower ate this is how i like pollinate
Hey Toronto - please be safe. You’re the first Canada I ever got to see and that makes you special to me. 🍁
Not a ford fan, but the amazing person I’m making this for came from a time when being ford vs dodge vs whatever was a big thing and he was a ford man. I won’t ever make these to sell, obviously, but my father in law gets what makes him smile because he deserves it.
Are we here for woke nationalism? Because I am here for woke nationalism, which is an essential element of woke cosmopolitanism.
Norway’s Vikings Are Reclaiming Valhalla at the World Cup
The far right spent a century claiming the Vikings. Norway’s World Cup team — horned helmets, runes, a viral row-chant and all — just took them back.

Oh, have I not told this one here? Okay. So Grandma had The Charisma.
Summoning @tkingfisher.com to tell the story of her grandma getting like five marriages annulled.
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

Prototype of the medical eyepatch I made; used the shell the surgeon gave as a template so that the eye below can open & close and there’s no pressure on the eye socket. Too many patterns and suggestions either ignored the eye’s need to move normally or put the pressure in the eye socket, 1/
I managed to do a decent amount of leatherworking today. Should have a medical grade eyepatch and another padfolio to show soon.
Saw this ad for a goat on Facebook. It’s perhaps the greatest advert I’ve ever read. It’s just superb.
The people that keep yelling at everyone to set their ac to 78 frustrate me. Maybe turn that fury on datacenters and corporations that leave a billion lights on all day. In 78 degree temps, I will literally faint over and over. I will be completely unable to function due to my health conditions. 1/
I swear I’ll be back to posting leatherworking stuff soon… my heart is just too heavy right now.
Mei Mei has been sad since her sister passed. Normally, she goes nuts pretty much 24/7. But between the heat and the sads, this is more her speed now. :( I know this phase passes but I miss her and Mei Mei does too. #cats #catsofbluesky
I need a #resin artist for a commission. Our cat passed away and we want to buy a keycap, a set of D&D dice, and a necklace charm with her fur in. I just need someone to point me the right direction. If you are that person, give me your website here in a comment please.
