that being said i do consider myself a yuri connoisseur and always an advocate for niche (even within an already niche genre)!! not entirely inaccurate bio i suppose

generally speaking i read many more non-japanese gl stories. i barely write anything that constitutes as gl. i write a lot of trans stuff. my next story is a father-daughter (sad) relationship story. but it makes people laugh when they pull out my business card. SO.

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

Rainy night Alpha x Kokone #ykk #Yokohamakaidashikikou
digital painting of Alpha and Kokone from Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou. The painting shows the two of them laying side by side on a rainy evening, with rain drops on the window. Kokone is lightly touching her hand to alpha's. alpha appears to be sleeping, but her face is flush with a nervous drop of sweat.

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

#makeaterriblecomicday2024 wow it’s that time of year again!
A (terrible) comic. PANEL 1: Emma looks at her watch. “What! It’s JUNE 24th already?” PANEL 2: “That means it’s MAKE A TERRIBLE COMIC DAY! how does it sneak up on me every year?” PANEL 3: “participation is SIMPLE. just make a comic! It doesn’t have to be funny or insightful or beautiful or interesting. make something for the joy of making it and if you feel it going wrong just trust yourself and keep going!!!” PANEL 4: “make a comic and don’t stop until it’s made!” PANEL 5: “remember that ole MAKE A TERRIBLE COMIC DAY saying, ‘if you want to make something GREAT, you need to start by making something TERRIBLE.’” PANEL 6: “or the other saying, ‘YOUR PARTICIPATION IS COMPULSORY!’ Stop thinking and get to work!”

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

i'm struggling with how to write this post without seeming like i'm capitalizing on trans suffering. but if you're like me, and reading the work of other trans writers makes you feel less alone, i publish a whole quarterly mag for trans writers and artists. it's what i've got. www.beestungmag.com

I wanna start sharing some Strange Bedfellows development art so I'm gonna start a thread here 🙏 some of the earliest work I was doing was thinking about the fashion and clothing of the future, which makes sense for me as a long time fashion freak. as someone who grew up wearing school uniforms-

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.
