Ripley LaCross

Well shit, you kind of just described my bullshit and hell I've been dealing with it since BEFORE T. HMMMMGGGG Should talk to my doctor.... sure would like thems benefits

Pay incredible artists, get incredible work!

...I'm listening

Sometimes making comics makes me want to cry in a good way, and it's a very nice feeling.

PFP commission for @shillelagh0, a portrait of them dramatically lit in front of a seascape sunset and a ring of hemp rope.

PFP for @yak.fan of their fursona, a very handsome yak with blond hair and gold jewelry.

6 tall, narrow snippets of my favorite pieces from January through June of 2025. January: "Weathering the Storm", an autobio comic with Oh Joy Sex Toy about my relationship with dresses and skirts as an agender person. The preview is from page 2 where a half dozen self-portraits of myself from high school to present dance in line. February: An illustration of my original characters Josephine and Louella, an Aasimar and Tiefling, dancing. March: "Outgrowing Social Anxiety", an autobio comic for Oh Joy Sex Toy, where I go over my experience at a small kink convention as someone who gets very anxious in crowds, ESPECIALLY when we're all there for such personal reasons! April: A commission for a friend, depicting their FFXIV character Zoisette. May: A sketchy drawing of my character Ash smooching the shoulder of a friend's character, Skyler. June: A snippet from page 3 of "Garden Retrospective", my pledge drive comic for Oh Joy Sex Toy. In this one I talked about all the gardens I've had over the years and what I learned from them!

Oh phew, it's already March and I completely forgot to post my 2025 Art Summary!

My output dropped pretty dramatically last year, but I still made some bangers.

6 tall, narrow snippets of my favorite pieces from July through December of 2025. July: A snippet from "Being More With Less: Agender", yet another autobio comic for Oh Joy Sex Toy, where I explain what being agender means to me! August: A portrait of my tiefling paladin, Shiloh. September: Commission of a jade earth genasi named Vimal. October: A digital painting of a warm sunrise behind a dark forest. I technically started this one in 2023... but I finished it in 2025 so it counts. November: Another digital painting! Of a autumn colored tree in the mist. December: A snippet from one of my Patreon sketchspreads featuring my boyfriend's Pathfinder oracle, Sibyl.

Doing these little year-in-review collages is a great way to put all my favorites in one spot :)

before sharing information

1) read the article
2) examine your source (what else has the reporter done? are they real? what else is on the website?)
3) check whether any other outlets are reporting on it

ESPECIALLY IF

- it makes you feel something
- it confirms something you already believe

Yesssssssssss

The heck is a consistent style? Never heard one.

I actually keep a 6" makeup in my shower for this very reason! It's dropped hit the ground a few times but hasn't broken, so I'm going to keep doing it lol

This is why I just shave in the shower.

Man. Seriously. I clean up backstage for ballet and Broadway productions and even these performers can't do this SIMPLE. FUCKING. TASK.

Damn you pnw clouds 😭 it was clear when the eclipse started!

New stupid scam alert. Scammers are now reaching out trying to get photos of your face to deep fake videos and con your friends and followers out of $$$ through counterfeit accounts. Fucking ridiculous.

big thought: sometimes I feel like people want to get rid of the labels for a thing (labels can be constricting!) w/out getting rid of the underlying reasons we started labeling in the first place, which ultimately leaves a lot of people without language to define their experience, self, and history

LET ME GET INTO A NEW INDUSTRY PLEEAASSEEEEEE

Yooooo I love this.

PHEW!

Wish comics and my silly little drawings paid better, but rent just went up and I'm barely scraping by as it is.

a cartoon of homer simpson saying " please please please " ALT: a cartoon of homer simpson saying " please please please "

Everyone send me good vibes, just put in an application for a neat second (third???) job.

Pay is shit, but enrichment counts as a benefit!!

I grant thee a permit to look disrespectfully haha

Quote Reposting too because this is SO important. We need to pay attention. CALL YOUR REPS!

Oops.

I liked this one enough to make a SFW version :>

Gonna be that guy again: you have to support trans work while you know you can.

It's more at risk than ever and I know some of you are engaging with the art and just not telling the creator!

So take this as your sign to tell somebody you enjoyed their work. It makes a difference.

[image ID: an old fashioned black and white comic which says "MILITANT MARY. I'm overworked! I'm underpaid! I'm sick and no one CARES— My friends, there's murder in my heart WHEN I SEE MILLIONAIRES!" This is next to a simple drawing of a woman with her hair slicked back into pigtails, wearing large glasses, with hwr arms crossed. At the very bottom in small print is the signature Steve Hyde.]

Militant Mary — Elizabeth Kirkman Fitzhugh, 1914
