I forgot to add a muppethole to my next puppet. cutting crochet is generally frowned upon but I cannot be controlled by such rules, I must have muppethole >:)

I vended a couple of markets in the last few days, accompanied by my crochet puppet, Friend. he's 6'3" with a lot of teeth and received mixed reviews but I had a lot of fun giving people high fives and dancing to the marching band

I printed my first series today! I have no idea what to do now though. idk where to label them, what I should call the series, if I should mount them on mat board, what to price them as... I like making stuff and hate doing the rest

dump his ass. move to a walkable city. start hormones. get into fiber crafts. dye your hair weird. grow an herb garden. foster a distrustful cat. take a welding class. invite your friends over for tea and cake. get way too into obscure media. explore a new cuisine. lie to the police. protest in the streets. life has so many possibilities don't it?

make out with a frenemy. buy noise cancelling headphones. wear office inappropriate attire. quit a toxic workplace. improve your apartment. start a dog walking sidegig. get on first name basis with your local librarians. bully politicians at town hall meetings. get an unexpected piercing. cultivate farmer's market connections. trade recipes with a gossipy old neighbor. unionize your apartment complex. move to the countryside. let a friend take you larping. keep a sword on your mantleplace

get a tattoo on your 40th birthday. be tempted to buy a loom. do a charity drag show. sue your landlord. buy a really nice kitchen appliance. volunteer at an anarchist soup kitchen. rediscover a tv show you watched when you were 8. spam your state senators. shop at asian grocery stores. do cosplay. buy trans flags in bulk and mount them along the highway. go viral for unexpected reasons. move in with your best friend. make lemoncello with leftover lemon rinds. run for school board membership. explore pegging.

I've been really enjoying making stamps but printing has been a challenge for me. there's so many variables and everything has to line up for the perfect print. I keep thinking about my success:fail rate and it's stressing me out. I want to be able to make and sell prints but if I can't get more reliable with it I don't think I have any chance of making that happen. not that I know what to do to sell stuff anyway, considering I'm not physically or mentally able to vend at events anymore. so for now I'm just making stuff and hope things change.
