One of the more visually interesting butterflies, the Question Mark (Polygonia interrogationis) can be easily identified by the white symbol on its lower wing when closed. This butterfly was at Government Canyon State Natural Area outside of San Antonio.
Skull and question mark cookies for class. Trying to make them feel like you're not meant to eat them. Tasted pretty good though.
The question.
Even if I toggle the display, enter precision mode and focus hard on the subject, I usually end up feeling like a big question mark.
I was the Riddler this past Halloween! Description copypasted from Tumblr:
My Halloween costume!
❓❓❓RIDDLE ME THIS.❓❓❓
Guess how much fun I had with this costume. (:
So yeah, it’s 80% Batman: The Animated Series Riddler, 3% Arkham City Riddler (I tried to get the glasses as close to that as I could), and the rest is an even mix between what I would wear if I was the Riddler and “Shit, I’m going to have to slog around outside in the mud at the Renaissance Festival Sunday and do 8 hours of stocking at work on Halloween, so let’s work around that.” I also slapped on an obnoxious combination of my holographic unicorn eyeshadow and my green eyeliner, because you cannot tell me that the Riddler wouldn’t wear obnoxious green and purple eye makeup if he wore makeup. I generally take a backpack with me to the Renaissance Festival, so I got a purple one and threw on some question mark buttons and a patch to Riddler it up.
So yeah, half of my costume is crap that was already in my wardrobe.
- Jacket, shirt, jeans (obvs.): shit I already had
- Hat: Nethats.com
- Tie: Zazzle
- Vintage question mark brooch: eBay
- Earrings: Made them from question mark charms I got online somewhere and ear wires I had in my craft stash.
- Socks: One of those Halloween stores’ websites
- Chucks: The Converse website (because I totally need more Chuck Taylor low tops)
- Backpack: One of those rando sellers on Amazon
- Question mark buttons: Zazzle
- Question mark patch: KrauseKreation on Etsy
- Big purple sunglasses: They were forgotten by an annoying group of people next to us years ago at the Fire Up the Night fireworks competition.
My costume seems to be pretty successful, judging from the positive feedback I got at the Renaissance Festival, at work, and from the notes on my previous post featuring this costume. :)
(Also: None of my greens match and I don’t care.)
Just about a month ago the Global Oneness Project started the Pacific Northwest Tour in which the team went to Oregon, Washington and then on to the Canadian Victoria and Vancouver to promote some of the new short films.
I had to create a poster that would encourage people to sit next to someone they don't know so I came up with this. We printed two 18x24 in. posters and at one of the last events in Olympia, WA they even liked it so much that I left one of the posters there with them.
It's a beautiful old movie theater that used to be a 'real' theater, but apparently a lot of people come there just by themselves and sit at the opposite ends of the rows so I thought maybe the poster could help people to give it a try to sit next to a stranger and maybe afterward or before an interesting conversation would take place.
Ryan suggested checking out his uncle (?) Bryan's loft for a possible location for my film. Bryan teaches high school English and resells novelty items on the side (hence the towering boxes).
I really dig how this came out!
But it was one of those stickers that takes 15 minutes to make, haha!

This one is straight from the camera, since I still can't figure out how to process the raw-files of this kind of photos. I always get some ugly reflections, whatever I do (using RawTherapee). Any tips welcome.
The Question Mark (Polygonia interrogationis) is a North American nymphalid butterfly. They live in wooded areas and city parks, or generally in areas which feature trees and free spaces. The adult butterfly has a wingspan of 4.5–7.6 cm (1.8–3.0 in). Its flight period is from May to September. "The silver mark on the underside of the hindwing is broken into two parts, a curved line and a dot, creating a ?-shaped mark that gives the species its common name.
As an adult butterfly, the Question Mark seeks out rotting fruit, tree sap, dung, or carrion as food sources. Only when these are unavailable do Question Marks visit flowers for nectar.
This species has been found in southern Canada and all of the eastern United States except peninsular Florida, west to the eastern edge of the Rocky Mountains, south to southern Arizona and Mexico.
Generally speaking, the Question Mark flies and lays eggs in the spring until the end of May. The summer adults emerge and fly from May-September, laying eggs that develop into the winter form; these adults appear in late August and spend the winter in various shelters.
