unfortunately this version (and the other archived versions I’ve found) all have narration, but the version we recorded from TV was just music, no words at all. it’s more fun to interpret the scenes without a voice interrupting the flow.

holiday lore drop: I LOVED this ballet version of the fairy tale The Steadfast Tin Soldier. the rat scene is very cunty, and the goblin is such an evil stinker (affectionate). all the costumes are wonderful, and the dancing… very nostalgic for me! very genderful.

"I wish all companies insisting on AI a very bankruptcy"

Also, congratulations everyone who made something this year. A comic, a song, a film, a novel, a painting, a poem, a short story, a sculpture, crochet, embroidery, whatever it is. In this era of slop and theft, if you *make* something you are a shining jewel and I am so grateful for you.

Text reads: USE AI? No thanks. I'd rather get my misinformation from the local swamp hag.

anti ai, pro hag

A corporation’s bottom line is their ONLY concern. With today’s news, we now all know Disney supports ai. If you support Disney, you support generative ai.

so shitty pathetic and corny, I hope the one million pieces of porn slop are emailed to them directly!

The handmade, human qualities of your work are more valuable than they've ever been. Don't doubt that for a second.

a photo of a black and white tote bag with several patches and pins sewn/stuck to it. two of Cody’s previously shown patches are there, as well as a third that says “euphoric” with a trans symbol in the center as the letter “o”. another patch (not made by Cody) says in orange “the binary is boring, baby”

when folks add my patches to things, our energy collaborates. my intentions making the art are transmuted into something new and uniquely expressive to the wearer. we cast a spell together, ingredient and execution. it’s my favorite part of making this kind of art.

a reminder that I’ve got clearance running until solstice—but if you want them sent before any holiday celebrations, order asap!

Ive posted this before but reminder to not call your deer cryptid ocs 'w*nd*g*' just call them literally anything else. Skull deer, not-deer or anything, just stop appropriating native cultures thanks

These will be available on our shop in the near future! 👀

Lawmakers and bible thumpers don't want you to understand the people they're demonizing are doing more good for society than they ever would

teen protagonist Onion Pendergrass, (15 y/o, auburn hair with a camo hunting jacket on that's too big) looks across a sweeping valley in a double page spread. In the distance the town of Mockernut is nestled in a bend in the river. The title text "BLUE HOLLOW" overlays the right side of the spread.

Onion and his love interest Bill share a loving moment. Onion has come down from the trees, leaving green leaves in his wake. As he kneels down, a series of supernatural and natural creatures follow him down the slope. Bill greets him affectionately, and a misty green substance twists around his legs in apparent affection. A crow has landed on Onion's back, but he pays it no mind.

the mysterious priestess Aradia Hargrove holds a candelabra and shushes the viewer from down a long, dark hall. A sheer curtain blows in the foreground.

Onion sits under the branches of a willow tree on a dreary day. The willow fronds blow in towards him, as if choking or trapping him inside. The tree's blury reflection takes up most of the drawing.

if you are an ND queer who has been bodied by grief, this comic may be for you! 15 y/o delinquent Onion discovers he is the one, a benevolent nature cryptid, when the pursuit of his missing father leads him to a crumbling blue victorian deep in the mountains.

I had this one keyholder at GameStop who told me he wouldn’t take pain meds for a migraine because he wanted to… “overcome” the pain? “master” it?? he was a strange one, but to each their own.

remembering the kind (if not also weird/quirky) managers I had as a teen working retail jobs, and realizing I have now become the nice, quirky manager that these 20-somethings will remember when they’re 30.

humans have ALWAYS been able to tell stories. it is one of our oldest and dearest accomplishments. children tend to be very good at it. i am sick and tired of greedy adults trying to make kids (everybody, really, but ESPECIALLY kids) feel like suddenly they can't possibly do it on their own anymore

Art by Lucien Lévy-Dhurmer. Title: Tower in Bruges. Dark tower surrounded by black birds.

In a Flemish folktale, there used to be a nobleman who had sold his soul to the devil. One dreadful night, the castle sank into the ground, as did the man who was sitting in his carriage. He still haunts the area, and it's said the bells of the castle can be heard on Christmas Eve.
