If accts. using AI to create Lo-Fi could kindly fuck off...
That'd be cool.

#FuckAI & I'm sorry, but I'm literally never gonna be into Lo-Fi. 🤷‍♂️

Noted! We also thought Jarlsberg would make a great grilled ham & cheese. Or pair well with a nice tomato or red pepper soup. So excited that it's basically soup season. 🤤🍲

Yes! We got a chunk from Costco to pair with these delicious Jack Daniels sausages they sold all Summer. Wonderful dinner --- sausage, cheese, & a slice of buttered toast. I'll have to tell the partner that it makes a nice mac 'n cheese, as well. Though, I'm prone to desire a simple box mac. 😂

I've got a BIT of time this week for personal readings! Monday & Wednesday are both full of errand running, but we could meet-up on Tuesday or Thursday for a 1-on-1 Zoom call!

I've also got PLENTY of time to write up a story for a 3 or 5 card spread!

Grilled cheese made with Jarlsberg is top tier, BTW.

I've yet to go to the cat cafe in Santa Fe, but plan to make it there someday. The concept of them is so fabulous to me.

@4islesandco.bsky.social Oct 11, 2026, 7:51 PM

I'm a very good boy who absolutely deserves the grilled cheese his Daddy is gonna make him for dinner tonight. 🙃

@4islesandco.bsky.social Oct 11, 2026, 7:50 PM

If you need me, I'll be sat here watchin' this tub fill up. Oh, I'm gonna write a blog while I'm here, too. 👌✒️

A person's leg is resting on a table in front of them. Sat on the table is a book atop a laptop. To the right of the table is a hot tub with its top off. There's a hose hanging over the side because it's time to fill up the tub!

Haha! IDK! But I'm glad I'm not alone. *passes loaded pipe & lighter over*

It's almost 11:15 A.M. & I just realized that I have waked, but I have not baked. WTF?!? Fixing that NOW. Then onto writing a blog on Salvia Divinorum. 👌

'Strength of A Raging Fire'

- ⬆️ testosterone levels 💪
- Adapt to daily stress 😌
- Stop performing 🎭
- Find balance ⚖️
- Go deeper & create intimacy 🌊

As a trans man with a ♐ 🌙, I relate to feeling like I must be LOUD to be heard. But it's not true.

A mason jar full of herbs sits on a scale next to a bottle of tequila & two bags of herbs.

A mason jar with remnants of herbs sits next to a bag of freshly strained herbs. To the right of the bag is the mason jar full of tincture created by straining the herbs. These are all sitting in front of a package of blue/pink ombre bubble mailers which are waiting to be shipped to your front door!

'Tranquil As A Forest'

- Increased testosterone levels 🏋️‍♂️
- Eliminate rumination loop 🙅‍♂️
- Invite flexibility 🧘‍♂️

If you need re-assurance that failure is part of the growth process, this formula is for you.

'Swift As the Coursing River'

Boost androgens 💪
Let it FLOW 🌊
MOVE ON from the past 👋
Do not allow depression to CONSUME you 😩
Quit wearing 'victim' like a badge of honor 🏅

As a trans man whose Mars is in ♋ with a Rx depressive disorder, this one is for me, too.

A mason jar with herbs in it sits on a scale. To the right of the scale is the bags from which the herbs came.

A mason jar full of freshly strained tincture sits next to the straining bag. The bag has been stained red due to one of the herbs being smoked paprika. This herb gives the tincture a beautiful red hue. To the right of the bag is the empty mason jar that housed the herbs while they were macerating. Behind it all is the pink/blue ombre colored bubble mailers ready to mail your order out!

'Mysterious As the Dark Side of the Moon'

Drop the persona ✅

As a trans man with predominantly #AirSign placements, I designed this one for myself.

A mason jar full of freshly strained tincture sits next to the straining bag full of herbs. To the right of that is the jar from which the herbs came, where they marinated in the whiskey for full extraction of medicine. Behind it all is a wall of bubble mailers. These tinctures are READY TO SHIP in these pink/blue ombre mailers.
