Tulip Festival (Holland, Michigan)

About six weeks ago I started a project that had me working non-stop (7d/week, 12 - 14 hr days) for 35 days straight (took 4 days in the middle to go to a family event in Chicago)

So that's why I'm a little behind on my posting, but I'm catching up now (and also catching up on sleep). I did take a lot of photos, I just haven't had time to edit anything (and my stupid phone got ruined during The Frog Incident so I had to deal with new phone hijinks)

Here are some shots from the ...

BOOK CART!

Someone in Michigan gave me an old library cart for my project there which is VERY exciting (I needed one but these fuckers cost $480 plus delivery). I have two in storage in Florida but they're so heavy it's almost cheaper to buy a new one than to ship them 😬

Anyway it's old so it needed to be refinished of course. Someone else sanded it down for me so that I could spray paint it and the weather cooperated last night for me to work outdoors.

Then I met the nice policeman wh...

A Stressful Weekend | also thank you

I spent the weekend in Chicago for a graduation and I did do a bit of content but I haven't had a chance to post much yet because instead of editing videos today I had to spend the day chasing down a troll who thought it was a good idea to try to find my personal data (my home address, my phone number; my car license plate, the hotel I'm staying at) and blast it all over the internet.

Yesterday Ichecked my work voicemails and i had to listen to not one but two explicit, disgusting mes...

Bookstore Update

Thanks for your patience the last week everyone! I am so grateful to all of you for your support and ia appreciate all the new subscribers!

The reason ive been kinda radio silent is ive been working 14 hour days setting up a mini sample version of my bookshop. If you're new, the TLDR is: for many years I've owned south floridas largest independent bookshop (we won many awards). It was demolished in events related to hurricane Ian and Ive been fighting insurance to get them to pay what ...

Pun Time: Cheese Factory

I missed last week for.... reasons, but this week's Pun Day photo is a GOOD one. I've been saving since February when I visited the Tillamook Cheese Factory.

If you're new, welcome! Tuesdays are for puns. To reward everyone for being so polite and well behaved the rest of the time, here is your opportunity to make puns about my boobs.

Post your best jokes about this photo in the comments!

P. S. Reminder: if you haven't already, you're welcome to send me your tiktok and...

Bra pattern update

You guys have been super patient this week while I was hyperfocusing on my new bra pattern and not being great about posting anything

The good news: IT WORKED i have a viable bra sewing pattern and I have many many photos to show you from this week. Once they are all edited, I'll do a longer post, and explain what I did (which was not standard lingerie sewing)

Cosplay: Samus Aran [lower tier]

Someone bought me the bodysuit for zero suit Samus! AND my favorite heels happen to be exactly the right color :)

After dragoncon Im going to think about making some Samus armor but in the meantime I think its reasonable to wear the zero suit version... it has NO POCKETS so I have some work to do

The rest of the photoset is posted on the upper tiers :)

Humor Sidebar

Someone asked me via DM "What is one thing that ALWAYS makes you laugh? No matter how immature, infantile, gross or downright stupid."

Which is a great question

The answer is, the section labels at Ross/ Marshalls always make me laugh.

::Livestreaming::

My experiment with livestreaming has brought some interesting results. I'll keep doing a variety of streams but the short term results are that tiktok is a LOT of work for the small amount of money it brings in (i typically make less than $5 in a 2 or 3 hour stream on tiktok), whereas Twitch has been really easy to use and not much drama. So basically, I'm streaming more on twitch so make sure you'...

OK Let's Do More Puns

Im on the road today and yesterday (headed up to Michigan for a bit) and reception is a little sketchy so Im digging into my backlog of unposted photos for you guys!

The Star Wars Day post was really funny (and no one was mean), so let's do another round of stupid jokes.

Presenting: a basketball game I discovered in arcade. I get a lot of mean spirited basketball comments on my socials so here's your chance to balance it out with good natured humor instead 😘

May the Fourth Be With You

Happy Star Wars Day!

Im in a rare mood on this highest of holy days and therefore I present you with a completely ridiculous travel poster style edit.

Just for today, I'd like to hear your best tiddie puns. I'll start: EXPLORE TITOOINE

DON'T be basic. Try and find some I haven't heard before 😆 if i am amused enough, maybe I'll do another one of these later. (This is a patreon exclusive opportunity.)

May the fourth be with you!

1860s Hair (when I dont need it lol)

I'm too exhausted to do a real post today, but I had to show you guys my accidentally 1860s looking hair today. How come it never looks right on an event day (like if I'm, you know, WORKING NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM) but it does this when I'm doing chores around the house?

Livestream Test

Today I logged into tiktok live just to test it out and familiarize myself with the UI , and this was my test run??

I guess I need to be streaming!

I'm gonna get things organized better for the next time (this was supposed to be a quick test) but maybe it's a feasible income stream

Do you guys have a preference for where you like to watch livestreams (like twitch, tiktok, instagram) ? Any other feedback that might be useful to me?
