What are some local birds you can find where you live? 🐦 As always, thanks for all the love on my birdie necklaces! These take me long to make, so your support is the best motivation! 🎃
There are still birdies looking for a nest on my shop 🍄 The chain, rings and clasps are made for stainless steel, so babes with sensitive skin should be safe 🖤 You can find them here guys!!
Alsoooo, this was my first time making acrylic necklaces too. I wanted to give these a try since there are some limitations with what I can do with the clay pendants and I already have so many ideas I want to try with acrylics too 👀

day 12
today's bird is the baltimore oriole!
- the word oriole comes from the latin word for golden, aureolus
- baltimore orioles have a serious sweet tooth. they love fruit, jelly, and nectar– especially oranges

[ID: an illustration of a black and orange bird perched on a branch with red maple leaves, facing to the left. It is on a teal background with white flecks. End.]
Baltimore oriole! They feed on ripe, dark fruits like mulberries, cherries, and grapes, as well as nectar and insects. They hang out in much of the central US during the summer, and migrate to Central America for the winter. The Audobon has a really cool interactive migration map about it! I’ve seen an oriole once in person, and it was stunningly vibrant and beautiful.
Timelapse under the cut. :-)

I rarely remember to listen to them anymore…Ponytail was the soundtrack to my life. Every punky/artistically inclined kid in Baltimore in the late aughts knew, Ponytail’s playing, it is going to be a religious experience. It was for all of us. Dan too, of course—Dan Deacon shows before he was enormously famous were participatory, everyone in a big circle. Those were early days of Future Islands too, with their rough hewn bursts of pathos and heart. It was church, Wham City stuff in that era, Whartscape was a hajj. 2008 Whartscape was my entree into this city as a whole, and, I was 17, grew up rural didn’t have much experience with live music — I didn’t know what it was going to be, but what it was was pure ecstasy, pure joy and community and sweat and love. In a big parking lot. Ponytail, for us, was the true revelation. Five foot tall little femme person yelping and bouncing around with this triumphant, insanely energetic, bright, candied music, with Dustin Wong’s extraordinary unsurpassed guitar. There just was something utterly distinctly Baltimore to the scene. One day in the not too distant future, I think, I will go and live elsewhere, but it’s too easy to forget that Baltimore still has such a verdant and enthusiastic scene of weirdos making what they love with expressive abandon.
And that as much in hip hop as in rock today. Baltimore’s not known as a big hip hop city, we are not “on the map.” Well, we have our trap legends and our classic ‘gangsta’ stuff (embarrassing phrase to use but idk what else to call the subgenre.) But there’s a fertile and ever-blossoming cast of amazing artists in the hip-hop and r + b scene and it is something of a new and very cool development that a lot of the hard line between the indie rock/punk world (predominantly white ofc) and the world of contemporary Black music in Baltimore (a largely Black city, ofc) is chipping away. Besides the obvious JPEGMAFIA, I’ll name a few favorite inventive and unique and great folks in that scene in no order: Infinity Knives, 3SIDEGOOF, Jaywan, Brian Ennals, Kotic Couture, 3LON, Fonlon, Vlaad, Alienood, Zen Xaria, DZI…some of whom I’m glad to call minor homies. All of whom you should check out if you like good music. As in the wham city scene and the post-wham city scene of incredible indie and experimental rock/pop, Baltimore hip-hop is exploratory, unafraid to be weird as hell. It’s a brutal city, it can be painful to live in, and the artists here (not just in music ofc) are committed to creativity in its sharpest form, both deeply personal and expressive + socially and community grounded. Situationist International in the 60s had that saying, “Sous les pavés, la plage!” If the half-decimated, ghettoized city with its wrenching imposed poverty and attendant criminal economy is les paves (the cobblestones), underneath (sous), in the arts scene, is “the beach” (la plage). That analogy makes sense in my head but it’s okay if it doesn’t in yours, it is almost certainly my fault, haha.
Love this city. I don’t go out the frequency I used to — I’m changing that piecemeal — but Baltimore is always with me regardless where I’m at.
(For a beautiful, impassioned and harrowing analysis of Baltimore, check out David Harvey, the Marxist political theorist who spent his career here at Hopkins, in “Spaces of Hope.”)

I am currently obsessed with the idea of Abigail being a little bit younger than cannon and making sad kid drawings of them.

Was thinking about the first thing that Neil says to Andrew when Andrew comes rushing into the motel room after Baltimore.
"They could have blinded you," Nathaniel said. "All that time fighting and you never learned how to duck."
Neil means it about the eye but god if it doesn't apply to Andrew emotionally.
In that moment in the motel room it's all on display just how catastrophically Andrew failed to dodge the hit that was Neil Josten. There's no way to deny it after Baltimore, he dragged Wymack around like he was nothing, didn't even notice the armed FBI agents, threatening everyone who wants to get close.
Andrew's spent so much time fighting wanting anything and now he's failed to dodge the most direct hit of his entire fucking life.

A little friend I made a while back 🧡 Mini mixed media collage of a Baltimore oriole (Icterus galbula), 3” x 4.5” on paper. Spotting one of their distinctive nests never fails to delight me! It takes about week for the female to weave her nest from whatever strong fibers she can find—grasses, string, weeds, animal hair. The nests are so sturdy that the birds may reuse them many months later, after returning from their winter grounds (which should be starting just about now!!)
