Arcadia

Hayao Miyazaki's short guide to watercolor painting -- we put this translation together a couple of years ago

drawing people i see in the city (5/?) (redraw)

Collage with deep earth tones images and green squiggles. Large text spanning the collage "The result is a beautiful homecoming." In handwritten cursive "and god, is it so beautiful to be. We are divine."

Part of a zine collage i recently made about being qtbipoc hehe

Mistakes have been made (i hung out with friends while they were smoking)

I just finished it and it was so worth it my week long FIENDING for Mis(h)adra was rightful asf

Hardcover copy of the graphic nobel Mis(h)adra by Iasmin Omar Ata

THEY ARE HERE!!!

I don't even expect them to have everything, I just thought LITERALLY ANY within a 15 mile radius of me would!! And the partial series!!! I've been looking for book 1 of a series forever but can only find book 2!!

Filled my $300 (after insurance) medication today and the pharmacist was like "sometimes it's higher at the beginning of the year." Did not have the heart to tell her it's always that expensive lol

Found out about the graphic novel Mis(h)adra and read the preview and fell in love with it but literally no library near me has it 😭😭😭

One of my biggest dreams is accessible technical theater. The day somebody cares enough to make that accessible is the day it's so over (I return to scenic art)

Literally am yet to see a single performance company, not even Sins Invalid, do this lol

My inhaler just cost me $330 after insurance 🙃🙃🙃

I may be forced into a selling-my-art lifestyle finally

a repeating pattern with a blue-green background featuring frogs and ginkgo leaves

gonna post some of my old patterns here for fun :3 here's the frog & ginkgo design!

Actually, in France male athletes wear jacquestraps to protect their oui ouis

A form of joy they dont tell you about is the kind when a childhood friend you lost connection with turns out gay and trans too lmao

Each and every day i fear for the future of our people (my roommate tells me stories of her students)

You are so obviously missing the point here and I'm done talking lol

Just bc it's a western word doesn't mean it's a western concept, not every person has the privilege of having access to their language to otherwise describe it. Queerness has been a thing since time immemorial

Wait y'all do know queer as in the reclaimed term in leftist circles, right??? Like that it's an empowerment thing??? And a resistance to heteronormative binaries??? It's not /only/ an umbrella term, there's actual history behind its move from a slur to common use/an identity

In a lot of spaces it's understood as a descriptor of sexuality/romantic attraction that falls outside of dominant Western understandings. That's how I, and a lot of my friends, use it at least. Like the political, reclaimed term that it is

Lowkey thinking abt using the university button maker to make a button about it lol

This is such a good idea omg!!

Currently the vibe is coughing so hard i sublux my shoulder lmao

childhood memories

Want to watch I Saw The TV Glow but it's not photosensitive space :((( they hate to see a trans Crip winning

Something that I will never get over is sitting in my classroom full of social workers in a blue city/state and being the only person wearing a mask

I need a shirt or smth at this point that says "coughing because I'm chronically ill, not because I'm contagious" this is my fourth flare of my lung stuff in the past like 4 months

The power in JUST my room went out and this feels targeted
