Street arty pals! I finally added stickers to my shop:

Go get some while they're hot! ^__^

I'm so happy with how these new prints turned out! This might be my favorite, from this batch. To create these, I scanned my hand-drawn pieces and then printed on fine art paper. All done locally, here in San Francisco.

Doing a Victorian breakfast tea at my favorite tea house and the local caterer made these absolutely adorable cherry cordials for it. I love them so much and they're almost too cute to eat.

Curious about the economics of selling 3d prints. Clearly there are many people selling prints on Etsy and eBay. If I opened a b&m shop where customers could customize prints themselves with easy to use iPad kiosk apps, get the item printed right then and there, wait for the print in a chill space, or get notified via sms, is that appealing? Customers wouldn’t interact with the printers, just customize the designs. Prices would likely be competitive assuming the printers and prints have high success rate. I don’t think even the best consumer printers are for everyone, but for technically minded folks it’s gotten much easier. Would this idea be following in the footsteps of Kinkos and other now defunct 2d print shops? The internet mostly killed the need for paper printers. Physical goods have legit use cases that don’t go away.

Local bakery: "I sold out of the first run of bread, next run is too hot to touch, but you can have a free bicky if you don't mind waiting a few minutes."

Was a good biscuit.

Boycott U.S. products / services

My partner noted black tarps covering U.S. wines was removed - shelved items replaced with non-American products.

I was initially worried (when she told me) that the U.S. products were back ... NOPE! ️

Finally picked up *months* of orders that I placed at the queer bookshop down the street, Birdie Books. I thought they'd be a bit upset that I was planning orders and not picking them up, but no, they're happy I'm a customer!

Shopping there and buying from them is a much, *much* better experience than Amazon. Seriously. If you haven't, find your closest indie bookstore, you'll love it!

The books, all of which I'm excited to get to:

- HUMANKIND, Rutger Bregman
- SUNRISE ON THE REAPING, Suzanne Collins
- THE LAST AMERICAN ROAD TRIP, Sarah Kendzior
- PAPER DOLL, Dylan Mulvaney
- THE QUEER ALLIES BIBLE, NV Gay
- THE STONEWALL READER, anthology
- TRANSGENDER HISTORY, Susan Stryker

The actual proprietor of my neighbourhood confectionery shop, overseeing his business behind the counter. All the humans working there are merely his lowly subordinates, nothing more.

My companion, Beau, bought us a couple of yummy #crab stuffed #salmon pinwheels for part of our dinner tonight I pulled them out to thaw so they can be ready to cook when we are both off work.

Canadians are now, due to misleading labeling used by American manufacturers, using apps on their phone that can scan a product's barcode and identify where it's from. If the product is identified as American, the app suggests Canadian alternatives. The apps currently available are: Maple Scan, Buy Canadian, Is This Canadian? and Shop Canadian.
