Hi everybody, I stayed mostly on twitter but stuff is really going down there. I’m working on getting a portfolio site set back up, but I’m pretty busy preparing to move and also getting ready to start grad school.
I’ve drawn a LOT of TWRP fanart in the last couple years. These are some of my favorites! I’ll do some additional posts as well, since there’s definitely more that I like of my fanart, as well as more to come.
I actually got the amazing opportunity to do some actual official art for the band, as well! I’ll post it when I know it’s okay to show freely, as well as a link to where you can get physical versions of it!

OpenTama & TamaLib Open Source Tamagotchi Platform
The Tamagotchi Original might already be back on shelves for quite some time already, but that hasn’t stopped some fans from transplanting the programming of the Tamagotchi Original into modern hardware. A small group of enthusiasts have been reviewing ROM dumps of the original hardware ever since they began floating around the internet a couple of years ago, even without the real thing they could run these virtual pets in an emulator.
The software platform is JC’s platform named TamaLib, an open source emulator that allows the Tamagotchi ROM to run on a variety of modern hardware platforms. OpenTama is not limited to TamaLib software, open-source general-purpose platform. OpenTama’s GitHub page its the way to go if you would like to get your hands on the software.
Although the project pictured above features the reimplementation of the original Tamagotchi, with an egg-sized PCB sporting an STM32 microcontroller driving an LCD display, powered by a 100 mAH battery that can be recharged through USC-C, love that! The hardware project is named OpenTama, which is a portable hardware platform that runs an emulated version of the original Tamagotchi P1 software. Be sure to check out the full article here!

This is going to be an unpleasant post but I need to talk to y’all about heat stroke in dogs. I am an ER vet and I am seeing firsthand the death toll that this heat wave is taking on our pets. In the past two weeks, for every single weekend shift I have worked, we have had at least one DOA with a body temperature over 107 degrees. One of them had simply been on a 20 minute walk at 5pm. All of them were brachycephalic (short faced breeds like pugs and french bulldogs). Their owners were in shock that this could happen so quickly, and their grief lingers with me.
If you have a dog, and especially if you have a brachycephalic dog, you need to familiarize yourself with the signs of heat stroke. Do not take your dogs out in the heat of the day, be aware of the pavement temperature, and always have fresh water available for them. When I am outdoors with my dog I am checking on him constantly. This heat wave is extremely serious; I need you to keep yourself and your pets safe.

[Image description: Two smartphone screenshots of a Facebook post by a person named Sheila Toll posted 2 Sep. It is black text on a white background and the post is public. The post reads:
I am a Family Doctor and I want to keep a promise made to a patient.
Julie was a healthy, post-menopausal woman in my care who came in for a periodic health examination. One of my routine questions, in what is called the “Review of Systems”, was to ask if she had experienced any vaginal bleeding.
She said “No” but then laughed and added, “Other than when my period came back for a few months last year”.
All health care professional are taught early on that ‘vaginal bleeding in a post-menopausal woman is Cancer of the Uterus until proven otherwise’. This comment by Julie was, therefore, a red flag (no pun intended) prompting further questions, an examination and an ultrasound of her pelvis.
Julie was surprised to see me so concerned, especially since the symptoms had not recurred over many months.
Sure enough, a pelvic ultrasound and tissue sampling confirmed Cancer of the Uterus.
Julie underwent a hysterectomy and radiation therapy. She is now healthy, cancer-free and is expected to stay that way.
After all this was done, Julie sat ME down for a talk. She told me she’d had no idea a ‘short return’ of her period after menopause was a danger signal. Furthermore, she addressed the topic with friends over coffee and discovered that, out of 20 women, NONE of them knew this symptom was abnormal! She admonished me to “Tell women this! Don’t assume we know it!”
From that day on, I have kept Julie’s advice in mind when talking with post-menopausal patients. But recently my wife suggested that I should take this to a wider audience.
So, Julie, this is for you:
If you are a post-menopausal woman and your period ‘comes back’ or you have even one episode of vaginal bleeding, TELL A HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONAL and insist on having it investigated!
Wishing you all good health and long lives. End image description.]

hey can you do me a favour?? Can you go get that nice pristine sketchbook or journal you’ve been hoarding and put some kind of mark on the first page?
Anything will do, like a smudge of graphite or a blob of ink, or perhaps a very scribbly dinosaur. Just put something there. Please, or the dinosaur will be sad.
