FUTURE PROOF is here!

I’m posting my graphic novel FUTURE PROOF as a webcomic. Start reading right HERE!

Sunny Side is a renegade archeologist with an ulterior motive; she steals alien artifacts from corporations to return them to their home planets. On a heist she has a strange interaction with an artifact before getting arrested by the corporation she was looting. Unfortunately, not even her rich aunt or lawyer ex-wife can help her escape sentencing. She's assigned to janitor duty on a corporate ship for the next six months. Trapped in space with a bunch of weirdos (some of whom are extremely hot), Sunny finds herself embroiled in a galaxy-wide mystery.

i do think the negative interpretations of "im probably nonbinary but i have a job right now" are kind of reaching. it's obviously a waste of time to theorize the op's intended meaning, so instead i think it's better to recognize how the phrase can be a useful framing device to criticize how much of a fucking hassle it is to get gendered correctly. "but i have a job" e.g. will face discrimination that could threaten livelihood; e.g. don't have the mental bandwidth to explain gender to others; e.g. don't have the time and energy for the soul-searching necessary to confirm. all three of these are labor issues. yes you could interpret it as "but being nonbinary isn't important enough to worry about", despite that being a blatantly bad-faith read. it's more useful to interpret it as "but being publicly nonbinary requires a lot of social effort that, in many cultural contexts, will create more problems that you can't afford to deal with". like cmon it's a really good jumping off point for productive conversations about queer labor rights

My new zine, The Incense Maker, is up on itch for PWYW! It's a fantasy short story about escaping abuse and having to make bad choices.
