this blog's main focus is photo-manipulation and editing as an art form. i source the images in my pieces primarily from free stock photos. my pieces range from just silly little thangs, to fanart, to depictions of very personal experiences. i don't distinguish between pieces which is which, and i don't expect my audience to guess, or to keep their interpretations of my work to what i've explicitly stated about it.a lot of my art is me trying to articulate things i can't say with words alone. maybe it will speak to something similar in you, even if they're different things. just come play in the space with me and my funny picturesi also make things that could loosely be called youtube poops and other video edits sometimes
ask before reposting (unless the post says otherwise). chances are that i’ll say yes, if you give credit and link back to the original post.
some warning tags i try and add when relevant:
#blades / #knife | #eye strain | #gore (only ever FX) / #body horror | #medical imagery | #scopophobia warning | #unreality
(sometimes i forget,
you can always let me know if i missed one)


idk man i just draw
i've gone by a lot of different names. maybe one day i'll list them here. maybe not.i used to really focus in hard on branding and SEO and all that "building a following" shit but that is just way too much, man. so i just try and post shit when i can now. usually i'll queue stuff up so it's not posting all at once, but there might be some long breaks between uploads!i've got a classic case of "a billion story ideas i've never fully committed to" so maybe one day i'll actually get something fun made with all that. until then just enjoy whatever random bullshit i decide to draw and upload.

probably other stuff i lovee using some random shit for art

>> i make junk journals and collages, and collect magazines and other paper stuff to use for it>> sometimes the magazines & stuff are pretty old, and/or have things in them that i want to preserve, in case they haven't been preserved somewhere else>> so i post those here>> i don't have a scanner, nor do i have the skills or bandwidth to learn how to do anything like making these into PDFs. so, for the time being it's just images hosted here>> the images are photos, not scans. any editing done to the images is to make the photos as clear and close-to-life as possible, or to cover up holes in pages and things like mailing information. many of the images are likely distorted some amount due to perspective cropping>> i want to try to back up posts to the wayback machine, but probably won't always manage it. feel free to do it yourself, if you're so inclined>> all uploads are my own photos of the publications/papers/etc. i do not own any of the content of the publications. any photos of mine can be freely used on wikipedia and other wikis/information sharing websites or for archival efforts.>> anybody whose work is shown in the publications/papers/etc in my photos may use my photos freely and without credit.>> not all uploads will be entire magazines. some may just be highlights, and some things will already have been partially cut up>> posts are staggered with the queue feature to avoid hitting post limit
