My neighbor asked me to 3D print a weird creepy worm man thing so I said hold up and checked MakerWorld. Sure enough several other people also wanted to 3D print the weird creepy worm man thing & shared the file. Now my neighbor has a weird creepy worm man thing too. This is what 3D printing is for.

I'm not sure if folks know that all the art for Neopets Magazine was still done by the in-house Neopets art team! Very little was outsourced back then when it came to merch/tie-ins, which was kinda unheard of at the time. A couple of my spreads, from my last summer working at Neopets:

New to the library: we've digitized the complete run of Neopets The Official Magazine. Yes, Neopets! It's important game history, and here's why:

if i seem laid back and relaxed to you, it’s an elaborate ruse - i actually carry the kind of tension that makes massage therapists and other health professionals say “wow” and “oh no”

I'd just called Tokki off harassing rabbits when a strange lady started accosting her in doggo voice, saying things like, "Hi, Jiménez! Good Jiménez! You're so pretty, Jiménez!" 🤨 After lots of confusion between us both, we think we solved it. She'd misheard me when I said, "Let's go, ya menace." 🤦

My white and tan dog in a harness attached to a leash. She's in front of some trees and bushes and looking into the camera. Her tongue is out, which is hella cute. Above her is a handwritten note that says "Not Jiménez" with an arrow pointing down at her, just in case you were unclear about whether or not she was called Jiménez.

My insurance will not leave me alone about bundling home & auto, which I would treat as any other spam except they refused to give me home insurance because the mortgage is still in the beau's name. (I can't change that.) So every time I get the bundle email I just get annoyed all over again. 😅
