TO BE FAIR if I were to bring up this memory with her today she'd probably be mortified but still. Lmao.

She was trying to articulate that she didn't envision me as a masculine person (I'm really not) and more of an androgynous being, but that one really stuck out.

When my mother was struggling to accept my transition after I'd been identifying as NB for a few years she once said to me, "But when you were a kid and your sister wanted to be a princess, you didn't want to be a prince... You wanted to be the dog."

I'm not SAYING that the hotel I work at is haunted, but if I had a nickel for every time I've seen a shadowy figure duck into the SAME corner, I'd have two nickels.

Eurydice from Hadestown kneels in the underworld, tears running down her face as she sits in the spotlight.  The text over her head reads, "Nothing, nothing gonna wake me now."

Saw Coyote vs. Acme today #coyotevsacme
A Screencap of a Seinfeld episode. Jerry is judging George, who sits teary-eyed on the couch.
Jerry: You're crying from Coyote Vs. Acme?
George: The power of trying your best despite the threat of failure got me.
Jerry: All right.

You're all contractually obligated to read this comment Rob Paulsen made on a Tim Curry interview in 2025
Rob Paulsen - Voice Actor

I had the remarkable privilege to work with Tim a few dozen times.
Kind, generous, playful, naughty and a TOTAL pro. A couple years ago, at NY Comic Con, I was in the green room having lunch and Tim
came in in his chair. Of course, I was aware of his stroke, so l walked over knelt down and said, "Tim! It's Rob Paulsen. We
worked together on..." he looked me and said, "I know who you are,
you fucking wanker." It was like a blessing from the Pope. Utterly
unique. Unstoppable. A total star.

These ones are notably pretty sloppy. I tend to be fairly broad with my storyboards on solo projects since I already have the vision in my head. Still, it's a good way to make sure all my paneling will look good on the finished page! #indiecomics #webcomics #comics #storyboards

A few weeks ago I saw some comment on a video about DMing saying "Ugh, it is NOT the DM's job to make sure the players are having fun" And, like, then what IS their job dude? That guy's games must suck lol

I ran into this problem in the first one-shot I ran lol people kept asking me why they were following the quest line, and I didn't have a great answer so the next time I GMed for that group, I locked all of them inside a manor and they had to figure it out if they wanted to leave 😈

The anniversary effect in PTSD. #ptsd #mentalhealth #ptsdawareness #webcomic #indiecomics
2 comic characters cuddle in a 4-panel strip. The bearded one is weary and tearful, comforted by his long-haired partner.
TEXT:
Panel 1:
-Sniff- Uuuugh... Sorry about this. I thought I was having a good day.
panel 2:
Babe, okay. You're allowed to be sad.
Uuuuuuuugh.....
Panel 3:
Wait, tomorrow is the 10th, right?
Yeah, why?
Panel 4:
Okay... That explains a lot.

Heads up for next week: the House will be debating and voting on HR 7757, the KIDS Act, which contains a revised version of KOSA. What's more terrifying is this bill is listed in the batch of bills to be brought up on Monday, which means the GOP doesn't expect much opposition to it passing.

This is not a radical statement by any means but there's a lot happening in the world right now and we don't need the community infighting that happens in online spaces. We can be better than that.

If I was going to make a big statement about pride 2026 it would just be to act kindly to your community, look out for the disabled, marginalized, and misrepresented folks who are in it, and to hang in there together. ❤️

I don't think I'm going to be posting any new pride art this month and that bums me out. Unfortunately June came REALLY fast this year, and I had other life stuff going on, so... Sorry. You'll just have to tolerate my queerness during the other 11 months of the year lol

Procrastinated so hard I accidentally came up with another comic concept whoops... #webcomic #indiecomics #originalcharacter #oc
Sketched rough draft of a four character line-up. Left to right: Kaylee, a chubby girl with her hair in a bun and wearing comfy clothes. Raymond, her husband, in a hoodie with cropped hair. Jin Megane with his arms crossed is wearing glasses and had shaggy hair. Alex Apollo has short curly hair and stands with his arms behind his head.

Additional scripts for cis het white men who want to be better allies: “What a weird thing to say” “Do you hear yourself right now?” “You shouldn’t say shit like that to people” “I won’t let you talk to them that way” “That’s a disgusting opinion to have” “Shut the fuck up, dude”

Idk, so often these days we're made to feel like trans allyship and medical professionalism are this huge, inconvenient thing to ask for, and it's pride month, and it's hard to express how much it means for anyone to just be normal and kind?? It's not hard, and everyone deserves that.

This is the first time outside of a Planned Parenthood or queer clinic that I've EVER had a stress-free discussion about my trans-ness in a doctor's office. It kind of blew my mind that it was simple and easy and without shame.

CW/TW: Medical trans stuff #pridemonth #pride2026 #transhealth - Got asked by a medical professional today about my "testicles". I blurted out that I don't have any, and she simply blinked, clarified I was trans, then continued her questions in a very calm, doctoral manner.
