just in time for #FemslashFebruary ;^) announcing In the Mood for Love, my latest illustrated short story. A bittersweet memory of queer first love, for all my fellow #UnrequitedLove enthusiasts out there.

The idea that everybody on the planet must forever be beholden to the default of babysitter of other people’s children except for their actual fucking parents, and as a result any attempt to opt of non-consensual babysitting must include getting my identity stolen, is an idea that must fucking die.

Kinda Fucked Up that in our lifetimes we've gone from "never share personal info on the internet" to "hand over your identity to the most incompetent corporations imaginable".

Don't really want to talk about Discord, enough going around

Instead I just want to remind you

You have friends who only have close online connections. Please be considerate. Do not scare the hell out of them right now that they'll be abandoned.

Talk of going scorched earth scares many people

The patchwork worldwide legal framework resulting from the ungrounded moral panic over people under 18 using the internet has a lot of us making extremely unpleasant choices. The blame lies on the governments mandating them.

I understand hyperfixations consuming your entire personality while they're active but I don't understand making an IP your entire identity. how empty are you.

separating creator from their creations is only valid when the creator isn't forcing a moral choice in the engagement of it.

Pokemon Stadium themed stickers of the Clefairy, Lickitung and Chansey Minigames

I picked up my #Nintendo64 a while ago and ofc, had to play some obligatory #Pokemon Stadium minigames. Hope you like the stickers (and eastereggs) I made to indulge the nostalgia! Which one's your fav game?

I want indie comics and zines to be trendy at cons so bad! I want artists to feel free to express themselves and connect with other fans with a bunch of cheap stapled photocopies, I want anyone who wants to practice their storytelling to be able to do so without worrying about not selling enough!

A woman who looks remarkably like Ratatouille’s Anton Ego holds an incredilous hand to her chest. She is labelled β€œrenowned yaoi critic, Anton Uke.]

Anton Uke: [who’s this rookie yaoi writer β€œA. Human”? I’ve never heard of them! Who do they think they are? I’ll knock them down a peg or two!]

Anton Uke sits at a fancy dinner table.

Anton Uke: [Waiter! Bring me the best work of the renowned yaoi author A. Human!]

Waiter: [Of course, madame.] The waiter gracefully presents a cloche that contains a book.

Anton Uke: [Let’s see if this A. Human is all they’re hyped up to beβ€”] 

As Anton Uke reads, she is flooded with a sense of nostalgia, represented by a vision of her watching the homoerotic tension between Star Trek’s Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock on her old box TV as a little girl. A tear falls from Anton Uke’s eye.

Anton Uke, still teary-eyed: [Bring me the author of this yaoi immediately!]

The waiter, bowing: [Of course, Madame.]

The waiter returns, presenting little Frogjoshi in his cupped hands.

Waiter: [Madame, here is the author known as A. Human…]

Frogjoshi peers up at Anton Uke through her glasses.

Anton Uke warmly shakes Frogjoshi’s hand.

Anton Uke: [To think a humble frog could have moved me so! Today you have proved that anyone can cook (yaoi)!]

A little frog wearing giant glasses sits on a lilypad, reading a book and giggling to herself. Her thought bubble shows Naruto and Sasuke open mouth kissing. A large frog looms behind her from the water, looking at her suspisciously.

The big frog snatches the little fujoshi frog’s book out of her hand.

Big frog: [what are you giggling to yourself about!?]

Fujoshi frog (Frogjoshi, if you will): [eek!]

Big frog, angrily pointing a webbed finger at Frogjoshi: [this is ridiculous! What does a frog know about gay love? Go catch flies with your siblings, as any normal frog should!]

Frogjoshi sits on a rock with three other frogs, snatching flies from the air with their tongues. Frogjoshi misses her fly, and sheds a tear.

Frogjoshi, thinking to herself: [How I wish I could write yaoi instead…]

Frogjoshi hops away into the night, a bindle slung over her shoulder.

Frogjoshi, to herself: [No one understands me… I must run away!]

Frogjoshi sits before a desk, pen in hand, set to an open book.

Frogjoshi: [no one would read yaoi by a frog… I’ll give myself a pen name]

Narrator: [The little frog’s yaoi books skyrocket in unprecedented success. It’s a BL phenomenon!]

Frogjoshi writes at her desk. Beside her, an arrow rises, marked with yaoi books with various cliche covers.

if you're one person making a comic by yourself, don't treat yourself like you should function on the same level as comics that have multiple people working on them. your backgrounds can be squiggles and colors.

allow yourself room to be abstract with details and give yourself some grace
