PomPoison @ Little Death Volume 2 Print Run! @pompoison.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

One last piece of business for tonight… ultratransgothicapress.art

Black background with a heart shape cutout of an airbrushed drawing of brunched up chrome mirror fabric by PomPoison over three paragraphs of white text.
Text reads:
I started fundraising for Little Death's print run independently because I had no other option as an indie cartoonist living in a fascist wave of politics and economics. Little Death is eroguro, and I'm trans, and while these things are what give my art identity, in the world of capitalism, these things are held against me. After over a half decade of mapping support networks, and building collaborative relationships with others in the industry, it became more and more obvious that erotic/dark work, in combination with being authored by trans people, are the lowest priority for most comics institutions and businesses. I got tired of trying to jump through flaming hoops for scattered crumbs that would be taken away later. I had fans who wanted my books, I had a Chapter 3 to work on, and I did not want the next decade of my career to be defined by the door behind slammed in my face.
I learned how to make my own website, shop, and fundraiser, unable to wait around for insecure people, unwilling to let me participate in my own business, or find me and my business worth their while. My worth is encoded in community.
I asked my fellow comic creators and community organizers to support me and teach me, and didn't compromise on my ethics or art. I also understand this project is bigger than me.
4% of all profits at my shop will be donated to the Free Speech Coalition. I need your help to see this project through, to end this chapter, and begin the next. Your purchase of a book counts as a raffle ticket and puts you in the running for the Grand Prize and Runner Up! Don't wait, because the Raffle closes 09/30, 12:00 EST!

I just read 📖 Hello, Sunshine by Keezy Young 📖 this week and I haven't made a post abt it yet bc I haven't found the words to explain how this book made me feel. It is a really incredible story. The last act had me crying.

The brushes are the bait and the art you'll make with them is the fish you're gonna catch 🐟 An update to my old set of regular-rotation brushes, this tacklebox includes all the mainstay brushes I use. Available now at valhethella.itch.io/tacklebox-brushes

A Banner image for a Procreate Brush Pack. A white paper background with blue scribbles from a variety of different brushes. The text of the banner is a bold, sharp font with a textured finish and reads "Swan Born By Leda's Tacklebox. 40+ Procreate Brushes."

a visual demo of the various brushes. They're each shown as large blocks at even pressure before breaking down into various shows of them at different sizes and opacity. They're demo'd as blending brushes as well.

Same goes for authors. You don't have to buy expensive hardcovers of our books. You can request them from your local library, tell your book clubs about them, read and review on netgalley, share and repost covers and quotes. These are things I'm encouraging people to do for THE FIST OF MEMORY.

(slightly) new #origami #nudibranch design. If you're in Glasgow, come by Doors Open Days at The Briggait for many more! waspsstudios.org.uk/open-studios... background: an Anna Atkins cyanotype, as seen recently in the @lrb.co.uk. (Algal cyanotypes are critical habitat for origami nudibranchs.)

A bluebrown nudibranch glides heavenward atop a bluewhite blade of seaweed. The nudibranch is origami designed and folded by Neil (origamiplankton.org) and the seaweed is a cyanotype by Anna Atkins, 1853.

The only responsible attitude for liberals and progressives to align on is that all right-wing grievances, claims and believes are not only false, but malicious lies. Nothing passes the mouth of an American conservative in public life that is not meant to harm and destroy the lives of millions.
