"antlers"

thinking deeply tonight about Andrea Gibson’s poem, “Acceptance Speech After Setting the World Record in Goosebumps.”
i have been accessing childlike wonder almost every day for the past couple weeks and every time, the goosebumps are just there.
This is why we should fund science.
A picture of a risograph greeting card, it's of a little cat in a sweater saying a big bubbly "hello!" The background is a bright sunny day with fields of flowers.
A risograph greeting card, specialized with a lovey message. There's two tomatoes sitting close to one another, smiling at each other, one is saying "I love you" and the other continues, "from my head to-ma-toes."
A greeting risograph card that has a dead dog with a balloon tied around his body, the balloon reads "get well soon" a more morbid style card but in a silly cutesy way.
A greeting risograph card that reads "u done it!!" And has a star shooting by with stars all around.
My shop is still open, and wanted to do another feature Friday:
Today's highlight, greeting cards!!!
We have a general hello one, a special lovey one, get well soon and a congratulations card!!
Great for sending to loved ones!

been posting sketchbook scans on ko-fi
a digital illustration in the style of a relief print depicting a black cat in a defensive pose holding a torn and tattered transgender pride flag in its mouth as it looks directly towards the viewer. the background is purple with some specks of blue and pink showing through, and behind the cat is a black midground resembling grass or flames. the top right corner features a box with a caption reading "T.D.O.V."
DON'T LET THE BASTARDS GET YOU DOWN 🏳️⚧️

A quick lil sketch of a dragon, they are facing away from viewer with their head tilted up, looking behind them. They are shooting a small amount of fire from their nose.

Digital illustration of Spinosaurus Mirabilis floating over a blue rectangle on a light blue background. It faces right, its head bowed and jaws open. Its chest is slightly at 3/4 view, while its hindquarters twist back to be in profile. Its tail is unnaturally gathered underneath it. Its front claws sit in front of it below its head, while one back leg is raised and the other lowered. In the bottom right corner is a watermark reading: “LEAVES AND INKS”

The benefits of pigeon watching
a year on hrt— which feels wild, but also it’s nice to be genuinely proud of something in your life
i made it a year, and i’m promising to dress more fem now, as a treat :)
i know i’m saying this about a shirtless bathroom picture.
at the same time, i actually used these pictures tonight to remind myself, “hey, if you think you’re cute enough to take a selfie then, you don’t need to stress now.” i was going to spiral, and turned it around instead. i’m proud of that :)
i’ve been having days of feeling gender euphoria, maybe for the first time in my life.
it’s wonderful, and amazing, and am i there yet? no. but that’s ok, i’m excited to find out where “there” is :)
oooo, zigzagoon
maybe the wildest
i really did pick a wild time to finally transition
a sketchpage of my OC Beef in various poses and one of them is sporting their excessively long tongue

Happy Pride no matter what stage of you you’re at 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️✨
yesterday, i thrifted a dress that hugs me in alllll the right places
if anyone needs me, i’ll be riding this high for months :)
its fucking wild openly talking about my trans experience (and with coworkers/roommates, non the less)
10/10, absolutely wonderful ❤️
all that to say: i’m excited and happy for myself for the first time in a long time.
it’s one of the longest commitments i’ve ever made. the last decade of my life has LITERALLY all led to this. it’s a decision I made, and I choose to stick with. every dose is a reminder to myself that i CAN do something. i CAN be kind to myself.
