it adds flavor

should I make a separate bluesky for my dice making or...?

nothing like the shift from con crunching your cosplays to con crunching your products for artist alley

I haven't worked on my novel in two months oofie

sometimes it is kinda surreal how me wanting to inject myself with hormones that make me feel good and make me enjoy living is apparently so scandalous that the government is unmaking itself to stop me from doing that.

when you have the glitter set out to put in your resin. and then you forget to actually put it in. 🙃

Friendly reminder that if you buy a book on Kindle, you're only paying for the rights to read, not own. If a book truly gets banned, it will be taken away from digital platforms like Kindle, nook, etc. Consider getting physical copies of banned (or other) books!

READ BANNED BOOKS

Going in to 2025, its important that you *actually own* the queer and trans literature you consume. That's why for ebooks you should always look for DRM-free storefronts like Itch, or an author/publisher's website, where you can buy a downloadable .epub you can read anywhere, and is yours forever

#1 social media tip:

Believe in kindness.

Interact with people you like, support them, help them get traction. Comment on their art, cheer them on, share a shop post. Be selfless.

Kindness blossoms into more kindness. It will take you far. People who stick together, grow together.

thank you sm!!

why do I do this to myself (I have to sand and polish all of these)

Everyone saying "make weird art!" you better fucking mean it. There better not be an unspoken "but not too weird" tacked on at the end.

Getting your freaky, fucked-up, queer, messy art out into the world is more important than ever

One of the hardest parts about being disabled, in my opinion, is being someone who wants to do everything but being stuck in a body that struggles doing anything.

A ghost embroiders pink flowers with green leaves into the hem of their sheet. Next to their right is an orange pumpkin pin cushion, and two spools of pink and green thread on their left. They trim the pink thread with a pair of orange scissors.

part of being on T is knowing when to stop trying to sing female parts in duets. I will never know when.

If your goal this year is to read more books, remember:

you don’t have to finish every book you start. If you’re halfway through and can’t stand the characters or just don’t care what happens, it’s okay to put it down.

Life’s too short to read books you don’t love!

hell yeeeea

yeah I uh. rolled a 2.

how am I ever going to find a partner when ignis is my standard

Just a reminder that:

-your gender identity is real
-your relationships should be celebrated
-you’re not the “issue”, ignorance and hatred are
-you are loved and supported

The holidays can be a tough time for us, take care and be gentle with yourself

finding out that my brother and his wife are still friends with my toxic ex? ew?

I do!! mine is icaruscaelum 💕

the fascist regime is scared of queer books, music and artwork.

make a metric fuckton of it and keep putting it out there, please.

it makes a difference.

mainly Starset and Black Veil Brides!! don't know how that count as "wrestling rock" but okay

I'm liking it so far! It's very validating for me as a late-diagnosed autistic, and is helping me fight the imposter syndrome tbh
