Why in fresh hell would I hang out with anyone else??

i always convince myself i dont sound that weird and then i go out in the world and get involved in anything longer than transactional small talk and its like ohhh thats right ive only been hanging out with gay people who speak in riddles

I drew a building. *On purpose.* I never draw buildings, but this one was one that I adored drawing. It's the lakeside house in my graphic novel, Tundra, where Jasper and Alma live.

Turns out the way to get me to draw buildings is make sure they're on stilts, in a cold place, and surrounded by pine trees.

Shaximiao Falls, 2021. Adobe Illustrator. A male Tuojiangosaurus in his prime enjoys the wet season in the middle Jurassic Shaximiao forest, cooling off in a pool shaded by the abundant flora: bennettites, cycads, conifers, ginkgos, and ferns. Surrounding him are some of the other denizens of the ecosystem. A tritylodont lurks in a rock shelter, a female Angustinaripterus holds her salamander quarry, and a softshell turtle rests besides the pool. A giant lacewing perches on a bennettite, calling for a mate.
