My postcard for pride month.

Inspired by this 510 BCE depiction of Sappho, and the joy of being in rooms of fellow gay & trans people making music & art, telling stories, and playing games together lately.

I'm grateful to the many people I've met in my area over the past few years who have been working hard to build spaces for that to happen in -- especially Cas, Lids, & Ryan.

Happy Pride, everyone.

(having a good week) that’s right. the goal is to increase my baseline. make the spirals shallower until they spin lazily on the surface of the water, lose their suction. im not trying to fix it all at once, im trying to incrementally improve my way into something tolerable. and once im there maybe i can shoot for good

(having a bad week) and in my terrible forge i will temper the flames of ruin

Pick a random date of the year using the random date generator. Then, set a phone alarm for that day.

On that day, you're a bringer of trans joy! Go to r/transtryouts and help out a few folks who are testing names. Try looking for those who haven't gotten any replies, and writing a little extra if you can- even a small story/letter, or a few compliments.

It's scary out there, and yet there are people who are still just starting to live authentically. We ought to be giving them all the love we can. 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵

Some of my favourite (and most representative) panels I drew for 'The Dream Thieves' graphic novel adaptation I finished work on last year, and that comes out on August 9th (you can preorder it)! To be frank, the process of adapting this book was like pulling apart a beloved childhood toy and trying to put it back together with half the parts. I am proud of her, but boy did she back over my lifeless body more than once.
