Welcome! I'm L.Grimm, your local coffee-fuelled bog witch. Here's a quick tour of the highlights:

My art can be found under the ellgrimmwashere tag

I feature other people's art and writing over in my support the artist tag, and sometimes those folks have open commission slots too. Be sure to check 'em out! Good stuff good stuff

That's the end of the guided tour, scroll on and have a wander!

POV: It's your first day at the "Jim"

Most people know to start with weights they can lift and use heavier ones as they get stronger.

For whatever reason, there's an idea that this somehow doesn't apply in calisthenics.

It makes sense because some exercises might look cleaner or more impressive than others. For example, learning to do a proper full pushup, squat, or pullup with good form is a major milestone for some people - and that's wonderful!

However, at the end of the day, those are just some of the many pushing, squatting, and pulling exercises out there! Depending on your fitness level, they might be too hard, too easy, or just right.

It's okay to test your strength, but spend most of your time doing variations you can do competently with good form.

Here's a gentle core exercise you can try!

Sometimes used to regain ab strength after pregnancy (but consult with your doctor first of course).

Can you let me know in the comments if this hurts your back to do? How about with the assisted version? Feedback lets me better serve you!

Free resource for artists and designers!!

I made a website where artists and designers can get color palette inspo from fire hydrants I've 3D scanned all over the US

Some of my favorites:

There are about 100 hydrants so far and I'm continuing to add more all the time

Public infrastructure is sexy, baby!!!!!! Pass it on!!

I have thoughts about the last part:

This is what mass consumerist art has done to the idea of selling that as a product when it's so clearly fine art. Like, with the effort she's putting in x20 for a decent wage and materials?? That's a $80,000 piece of art a member of the landed gentry would commission a year in advance for his wife on their 20th wedding anniversary. This is a priceless heirloom. How can you say "Oh yeah, I wanna buy it, you should sell them" as if you could ever turn something like this into a product??

This is fine art, period. That piece will be in a museum, or if not is should be in a museum in a hundred years.

I just said to my wife, "oh, look at this beautiful autistic person, this is autistic culture," when I sent her the link. And half a second later I said, "and I think she has the same headphones we do."

But truly, this is incredible fine art. Fuck. I love that little moth.
