There’s something about Fran @crazygnomenclature and good timing that’s impossible to ignore.

The general idea for this strip was planned out quite a while in advance, and it mulled around until pride month was about to begin.

Earlier this week, Fran sent me a video of some rainbow shoes she got.  They’re cool! 

A day or two later, I mentioned the next comic would be about Rainbow Capitalism, and she responded with, “Looking forward to see that after showing you my new sneakers, lol”

I hadn’t figured out exactly what the words for this strip would be yet, but her statement sparked the idea for the introduction.

Eleventh hour Fran from the top rope!

Regarding Rainbow Capitalism, I 100% get that some folks aren’t going to agree with me here, and that’s ok.  But please consider leaning into cheering on the companies that celebrate pride month, and consider celebrating the ones that join in the future, even if they’re companies that have dropped it right now.

We need all the support we can get, and having pride being something seen as positive by as many folks as possible, corporate reasons or otherwise, is a win. 

So wear those rainbow shoes!  Get a rainbow bagel!  Go to some pride events!

I’ll be volunteering myself at a couple local ones which I’m excited for!

If you’re safe and able, try to get involved, even a tiny bit!

Whether it’s volunteering, supporting local businesses or initiatives, being visible, etc, every little bit helps!

Much love, <3

After reading this comic yesterday, my wife responded with, “…bad girls are hot.”

Eyyyyyyyyyy

There are many things going on politically that are frustrating, but something that I find even more frustrating is how telegraphed the trajectory we’re currently on was and continues to be.

Roughly two years ago, there was a family member that I outlined how exactly this was going to happen.  How certain minorities were going to be labeled as being intrinsically criminal, and how this would lay the groundwork for future atrocities.

I pointed to specific language in Project 2025; Republicans literally spelled out what they were planning to do in advance.

I was ignored.

I’m not sure what it takes to get our fence-sitting “allies” to care, they might never…

…but given enough time and how bad things eventually get, they’ll say they did.

Reblog the 500,000 dollar written check from Seto Kaiba and money will come your way.

Reblogging this manually. Op doesn't want credit for fear of being terminated.

Once you start noticing the erasure and exclusion of trans mascs in everything from media to academics you can never stop noticing it

Something I find completely alien as a concept is to hear someone from a different background pour their heart out about issues affecting them and their community and think, “wow, I don’t want to hear about this, goodbye.”

How could anyone react that way?

It takes such an immense lack of empathy, of compassion…

…but I also think it takes a lack of intelligence.  To have the opportunity to learn more about the world you inhabit and go, “no thanks, I’m good” says to me that individual not only possesses zero drive to gain knowledge, they are willfully so.

Who are these people?

Why are these people?

We can’t be emotionally available all the time, I get it, no one can be permanently set to “on”.  But to ignore the world around you, to disallow challenges to who you are and how you think is to declare yourself a finished product just living out the rest of their days in stasis.

What’s the point of a life like that?  Why are you still here?  To sit back, relax, and declare yourself to have “gotten yours” so no further self improvement or community enrichment matters?

I’m glad those folks have the privilege to live such a life. 

I just wish they wanted the same for everyone else.

Repost, now do your honors.

I really struggle with being perceived and have mixed feelings about being visible. Being visible invites vulnerability. Being visible can be dangerous... But as things get worse and worse, I find myself getting less scared. I'm getting angry.

I want to be able to live as myself regardless of what bigots would prefer. I want to actually live before I die. I want all of us to be able to live as ourselves in spite of the fear.

Being visibly trans can be scary, but never living as yourself is worse.

Has anyone figured out what’s so viscerally wrong with this woman yet

[stuckinapril]

She’s so one dimensionally evil you guys 😭😭 how is she real

[mintedwitcher]

read this and remember it. read this and remember that she is going to use the profits of her fucking ego-stroking reboot to decimate trans rights. read this and remember that every time you pay into her IP, you are emboldening her to hurt us more.

our lives matter more than your fucking nostalgia.

trans lives matter more than your fucking nostalgia.

[cholerascum]

fuck harry potter. fuck jkr. fuck YOU if youre even considering watching or supporting this shit. jkr takes any support or consumption of her slop as support for her poisonous bigotry.

do not hate watch. do not pirate it. just let. it. die.

anyways, support a trans woman instead. on kofi in fact. supporters get monthly shoutouts and monthly supporters get to see my art early.

HELP MAKE A TRANS WOMAN'S ART INTO AN OFFICIAL LEGO SET

Hi all! Lego has a program called Lego Ideas. You can submit a design, and if it gets 10k votes it will be reviewed and potentially made into a real set.

Our design is a sunrise tapestry inspired by the lesbian flag!

To vote, you need to make a Lego account if you don't already have one. But it's free, and we would really appreciate the support!

Thank you for reading! Take care, stay safe, and stay hydrated 💜

Look if we can get this made into a thing, i would really appreciate it, it would be kinda awesome to have some extra gay Lego stuff that isn't just the default pride minis they did about 5 years ago!
