These are beautiful! I love the diversity of texture in the different tendrils.

What ongoing projects are you working on? in c/imadethis@lemm.ee
[–] martine@lemm.ee 12 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I have ADHD and can't seem to actually finish a god damn project, but starting them is easy! So...

Woodworking/carving:

  • spoonula that I literally just need to finish sanding
  • trinket bowl
  • need to bleach and oil a dozen cheese knives I otherwise finished six months ago lol
  • espresso tamper
  • compost tamper

Sewing:

  • a bunch of swaddle blankets for some pregnant friends
  • UPF fabric kaftan for the beach
  • slipcover for my office chair
What is your cat's name, and what stupid nicknames do you call them? in c/cat@lemmy.world

"No really my name is Alcatraz! Like the prison island. Dennis is just a nickname. I swear! Also you haven't met my girlfriend because she goes to a different school, I talk to her on AIM."

Nobody should be using pet names or nicknames in their passwords, period.

Things I love about this comment:

  1. Singing Emmerly and Ivory
  2. Emmerly's mlem matching the cat food bag
  3. "Staredycat Sister's"
  4. The fact that Char Char is a tortoiseshell, because I think they look like orange cats that got stuck in a sooty chimney

To my fellow sober queers out there (instagram.com)
 

I know I'm not the only queer person who has struggled with substance abuse – it's not uncommon in our community because of the chronic trauma so many of us do and have experience/d from our families, friends, and society at large.

I make art based on my experiences as a queer sober person and the joy it has brought to my life. If you want to take a look, it’s on Instagram and I also recently duplicated it to Pixelfed (federated photo-sharing community).

https://instagram.com/soberandfruity https://pixelfed.social/soberandfruity

I'm working on a piece right now about alcohol companies rainbow-washing for pride. I think they are aware of the alcohol abuse in our community and it sucks. But it also is important to be represented in society, which is, at the moment, capitalism.

I welcome DMs from anyone who wants to talk about their drinking if they are worried it's problematic, or just want to talk. I've been sober for over three years :)

Disclaimer: Many people, including queer people, are able to drink in a way that is not disordered or unhealthy for them. I don't judge anyone who drinks!
