disclaimer: "full-time yuri enthusiast" in my own bio makes me cringe just a Little. but it's the personal brand. how much does this matter? we'll see

24 pg / R16 / cw mild nudity and sexual themes T4T. An aspirational story of two strangers making an exchange with their bodies. Find me at TCAF this weekend, wait for the extras to go on sale, or check it out online for the digital copy: liurae.itch.io

"New arrivals for TCAF" as a fake website header in an IKEA new-item style, bright orange. Below is a picture of a comic placed in front of a lilac bush. On the cover, there's a person with long hair and big eyes looking towards the viewer, and is holding a screwdriver. The person laying next to them on their left is looking at them, and is pointing their fingertip to touch the tip of the screwdriver. They are both blushing, and shirtless, but there is no detail where their chests are.

rain city comicon tomorrow!

the text reads "See you tomorrow! at Rain City Comic Con," overlaid a map of tables. liurae will be at table G10. It will be their first comic's debut, and they have restocks of stockers and prints.

my #artvsartist2025 🗣️🗣️ won't lie, 2025 was one of personally worst years of my life (again?) but still had its hopeful moments amidst the numerous downs

3 by 3 grid of illustrations from 2025. the center picture is a phone selfie with the text "2025 art vs artist" overlaid on top. the illustrations are mostly anime fanart, with two original pieces featuring a fairy and also trees.

vibe for the week

the demon, the host, the window, the birds

text:
The earth is turning
But you’ll never feel it
Many things turn this way
Perfectly still

When I want motion
I have to brew it myself
First in the heart
Then to the legs and fingers

Like a watch
I wear my complications on my face
And time makes a nuisance of itself
All through my guts

Still, all morning
I watch the chickadees line up
Outside my window
Shouting me their reminders

To them
I’m just a very strange sunflower

i think it says a lot about the kind of person i am that it really itches at me that there's no standardization of "comic con" and it's comicon, comiccon, comic-con, OR comic Con

I have heard this joke one hundred million times and this is only the second time we’ve ever done this #makeaterriblecomicday2025

The possum is still sitting in the trash. “Heh,” someone says from out of frame. It is a pug, who flashes a wry smile and says, “for me? every day is ‘make a terrible comic day.’” They continue to mug while the possum stares blankly from the shadows. She grabs the pug, yelling with wild eyes, “then there should be no issue with your COMPULSORY PARTICIPATION, right??? Just another day at the office???”

forgot to post my fave merch i've drawn — stamp stickers from #yokohamakaidashikikou ! 🎣❣️ #art #yokohamashoppinglog

7 stamps arranged slightly askew. each has a different illustration: alpha holding a giant persimmon, a flooded tori gate, a ocean sunset with only the tops of lamp posts peaking out of the water, a bird-like airplane, a corridor with giant overgrown trees, two girl androids kissing, and a fish weather vane

It’s so easy to be an artist. You just do it. That, of course, is why it’s so hard to be an artist. You just have to do it. People despise how artistic courage highlights their own cowardice. Thus, crave the art, despise the artist. my random thoughts on it, better said by all the ppl in history

I did my best to compile as many protest safety notes as possible into a one page foldout zine! Coincidentally…it seems the file has breached containment…like it’s available for anyone to print or hand out 👀⚖️ toonyart.com/s/PSZine.pdf

The cover spread from a one page zine printout. The left (back cover) features images of a scale and gavel, with notes on First Amendment and filming rights, and the advice to “shut the fuck up.”

On the right is the cover, a megaphone with the title text “PROTEST SAFELY.” Behind it are faceless protestors. The subtitle notes, “A brief collection of tips from around the internet.”

A spread from one page zine printout.
On the left is an illustration of a protestor with the title “What to Wear,” including a helmet, goggles, ear plugs, gloves, a mask, a backpack, and layers/long sleeves/pants. Each have additional notes explaining their use.

On the right is “What to Bring,” featuring illustrations of a backpack, money, water bottles, a mask, a granola bar and bag of trail mix, a first aid kit, folded shirt and pants, and an ID, with “DIY Defense” listed underneath it showing one protestor using a luggage case, one holding a trash can lid, and one using an open umbrella as a shield.

A spread from one page zine printout.
On the left is “Protect Your Identity,” advising to cover up identifying features, avoiding photography of protesters, deactivating biometric phone-unlocking tools, and writing emergency contact and counsel numbers on your arm.

On the right is “Be Like Water,” the motto of the 2019 Hong Kong protests, and the text “BEWARE THE BAIT” with images of a palette of bricks and a masked man holding a crowbar toward a protestor with a sign, “Psst, free crowbar?” encouraging the reader not to engage with traps and undercover agents.

A spread from one page zine printout featuring the hazards of protest opposition, including tear gas, rubber bullets, and LRAD sound cannons and flash bangs. Caution tape images accompany the text explaining the dangers of each, how to flush out eyes that have been maced/etc, and how to extinguish a gas canister with a traffic cone.

A David Lynch quote for every creative person who may need it today. It resonated with me when I came across it reading it in Lynch on Lynch.

" No, it wasn't. What makes you worry about things like that is when you start thinking about what certain people might say about it later. Because you're not really sure what they might say. And if you start worrying, you could make some really strange decisions based upon that worry. The work isn't talking to you any more; this worry is talking to you. And you become paralysed. So the trick is: you've got to forget making a hero or a fool of yourself and just try to get into that world. and if you can do that, and you feel good about the decisions that you make, then you can weather whatever good or bad storm comes along. " - David Lynch in 'Lynch on Lynch'.

We report in the late evening: it is all a bit much. The wind is strong and blowing from an unusual direction, the clouds are expanding to monstrous proportions, and the light feels apocalyptic in nature. When it starts raining, it seems like an appropriate climax to the sunset.
