Happy 10th year of me doing this dorky comic! Hope people don’t mind the fact that I haven’t really dabbled in Cap stuff for a few years, except for my weird yearly July 4th ritual. On AO3 here, and tumblr tag here. (2022 was about Dobbs, 2020 was about seeing the stars, 2019 was about building new systems, 2018 was about voting, 2017 was about immigration.)

@histrionic-dragon tagged me yesterday and posted a bunch of cool links of ways to help: https://histrionic-dragon.tumblr.com/post/721837010124488704/almost-captain-americas-birthday

Lots of posts out there on the 2023 Minnesota legislative session, but here’s the OG tumblr roundup post.

California is trying to divest its two largest pension funds from fossil fuels, but apparently today they decided to table it until next year. :/ I guess more meetings are needed! (productive ones, not ones that could have been an email.)

I did a google image search for a bird skull and this is one of the ones that popped up. Apparently it's a Yellow-Headed Amazon skull.

Hope you're having good times : )

New strip for my webcomic posted!

So, I make this webcomic strip called ‘Tea is for Talking’. It’s a slice of life about a couple, Nil and Seb, living together and drinking tea and occasionally hot chocolate.

If you’re curious you can check it out on tapas here:

I can only post semi-regularly at the moment, day job to cover rent/bills/whatnot, but there’s always at least one strip a month.

Monster! Carnivorous Cupcake.

Saw someone on youtube with the username carnivorouscupcake and got kind of curious as to what that would look like... so I ended up drawing it : )

[ejandrews]

Working on drawing my characters faster. These two be Nil and Seb from Tea is for Talking. Also trying digital sketching.

[ejandrews]

It’s been a while, I think. Here’s a thing I drew. Two characters, Nil and Seb, from a webcomic I make called Tea is for Talking.

Hope your days are going well!

A little bit of prose

A little bit of prose, for no real reason.

I am made of stories. All the stories I’ve lived, the stories I’ve heard, the stories that bubble in my mind and roil in my heart. Every story I touch or see becomes an inevitable part of the ever shifting being that I am. So hard to pin down. Can’t quite make sense. Not all these stories are fact but all house truths. And lies. Some are light and pull me up, others are dark and swallow me down. The stories made from this swirling pot of me tend to be the latter. So often are they this that it seems at times that I’ve only ever been lost in darkness. Darkness from my own experiences, darkness from others’ stories. Darkness I create within myself and then must try to find my way through. Trapped by my limitations. Held tight in that darkness by my inability to turn my thoughts to lighter things, brighter stories. I flood my own senses with bleak, despairing moments, and one by one, I see lights appear. They are soft, and small, but irrevocably there. The small fires from friends and family and good times and stories. Small fires that remind that hope is always something we can fight for. We just have to remember it’s there. Just have to find our way back to it. Then we know, we can survive the darkness. We must. We need more stories of hope and light and fighting for those things to not just be true, but to be fact. So that next time we find ourselves in the darkness, there will be more fires to help us fight our way out.

Happy Holidays! Hope they’ve been good/are going well : )
