Hi again- thank you for viewing and sharing and loving. It really means a lot that this didn’t just get absorbed into the void that can be Tumblr. 😂

Let me know if you would like to purchase this original piece- I’m about to put it in the shop that I work at. But I would happily make a spin-off version of this (( - I have many blank mini canvases))) .

It’s been a bit since he let me hold him!! This was a “live” photo & he was purring his sweet deep purr! I had just gotten home from my partner’s punk 🪨 rock show. It was fun, glad I saw them! Then I slinked out to get back to Ives. 🩷

I have an appt/ over due check in with uterine fibroids stuff on Friday - a little anxious but grateful the insurance covers it.

I’m waiting to reach out to friends. I just want to get through this work & appt week and make some art/ come back to myself/emotionally de-clog. I’ve been cleaning the apartment vs making art and it’s making me grumpy (in my head- not outwardly😅)). 🥐

A Snackster

This first thing I thought when I woke up from surgery was I am so hungry and I need ramen right now! but the second thing I thought was Oh my god, I'm safe.

I was safe.

I thought about having kids someday, but the thought was always divorced from the concept of having to grow them in my body. Whenever I thought about it, I would either start screaming or my mind would shut down. My worst nightmares featured discovering I was pregnant, and realizing I would have to keep it, and go through childbirth. I was terrified.

I got the surgery, and realized I was safe, and I never had those nightmares ever again. It was like finding out I was bulletproof.

Later, I looked at the broken condom, and I didn't see my life flash before my eyes. I didn't see my hopes and dreams turn to ash as I pivoted all my energy into a child I didn't want. I didn't see a possibility of starvation or homelessness because my already modest income went to a child I couldn't afford. I didn't see my disabled body becoming further disabled, or killed, by a pregnancy that I didn't want.

Today marks five years since I had the surgery and I have had not one single second of regret! Over the summer, I also got an endometrial ablation to stop my period for good. My body feels more and more like home. I love my life full of sex and empty of human babies!

I am so honored to know that at least a hundred other people were able to get their own surgeries because of this comic. Knowledge is power!
