One time I was leaving a friend's place and an older lady with basically no English came up to me and communicated that she was very cold and needed a ride. She pointed to tell me where to go.

I got there and her daughter or granddaughter came out and was like omg her phone died we were worried

And then the older lady said something and the younger lady translated.

"She knew she could trust you because you have pink hair"

I thought it was funny at the time. But when I think back on it I think she was basically saying "you had a visible sign of not vibing with the system I was afraid of"

Be weird. Be colorful. Help random people.

YOUR ART ON TUMBLR IS BEING USED TO TRAIN AI!

The setting that prevents your work being used to train AI models is turned off by default! I had no idea about this until now! Artists, go to your settings, click “visibility”, and turn on this setting! Protect your work!

aftEr, Arc 1 Chapter 1.0

At long last, after writing over 100k words I've started working on my longform comic and sharing it with the wider world.

There's 7 acts and 10~ chapters in each one, so it'll be years of work. But it's been years of plotting and writing, so I hope you'll join Fool and her friends as they negotiate their survival in a world turned against them.

I look forward to coming back to these pages in a few years to see how much I've developed artwise. I already love to see my girls all grown up.

Thanks for stopping by!!

I had to do the Dungeon Meshi race meme with my main six characters from AftEr.

Some of these are very familiar faces to some of you. It was really fun to solidify their defining characteristics like eyes and hair and markings, etc. I'll do a write up of the different features of each species eventually.

You can start reading my comic here!

i really enjoy that i’m experiencing dashcon 2 in the same way that my forefathers experienced the original dashcon: though sporadic bursts in chaotic photos. i have no damn clue what’s going on except the ball pit is tiny, strange aeons won the duel and ousted the muppet joker, there was a live in person kung pow penis, and someone cosplayed the children’s hospital

[teaboot]

there’s a fucking what now
