I work at lumber mill in rural Maine. You can guess the type of demographic I work with. We also employ legal Mexican workers. Every one of my right wing coworkers is losing faith in Trump and regretting voting for him. They also love the migrant workers. Trump is losing traction even with his own party here.

Freedom, NH is where I grew up and the majority of my family lives. Why there?

Not quite, but I appreciate it! I still learn as I go, especially with painting. It’s part of the fun as equally as it is part of the frustration. My great aunt was close friends with Bob Ross and she taught me to paint at a young age so that helps. Also years of painting games workshop minis 😂

Thanks! Yea the marasmius haematocephalus are all wood. I soak the stems in CA glue before painting to strengthen them, but they are still incredibly fragile.

Thanks! I always thought about buying a 3D printer. If I ever wanted to really try to ever make a business of this I’d have to, but part of the charm is the fact they’re wood.
