A large illustration in dark blues and purples. A snarling wolf with beady glowing yellow eyes stands over a skeleton draped in a kings robe and adorned with a gold crown. A sliver yellow moon is above the wolf, and outlined text reads “NATURE KNOWS NO KINGS.”

A small wooden toy of a cat on wheels. It has been hand painted to look like someone’s orange and white cat. On the left side of the wooden cat, is an out of focus real cat, sniffing the toy.
Lunchbox helping me take some nice pics of a recent custom cat-car 🥰
This is so cute, what an awesome gift!
The complete comic! I’d rather die than have kids and I’m thrilled I never have to concider that comparison ever again.
A cartoon drawing in black and white line art. A girl on the left kicks the crotch of a strange goblin monster. The caption reads “I never want to think about kids or pregnancy ever again!”
I’m getting a tubal ligation next week and I’m so fuckin ready
A person sits behind a desk surrounded by a laptop, drawing tablet, lamp, and headphones. The face of the person is a skull with jaw hanging open.
Always a joy to find old drawings in my files
IM SO FREAKING EXCITED
Not chosen, they hired me! Was a fun one for sure and I’m looking forward to seeing it in the wild!
I’ve never tried playing an instrument in pretty much my whole life. It is highly frustrating but also fun!!! Yay banjo!!!
Too late I already did
I accepted a new position at work today on a different team (yay!) and holy moly I can’t wait to take my current projects and slam dunk them directly into a dumpster.
Each of the suits has a different cultural representation. A really wonderful detail!
I got a very cool tarot deck recently! This is the Fablemaker Animated Tarot. The illustrations/animations are really beautiful!

A photo of a DIY screen printing set up on a desk. A screen is held in an upward position and a yellow piece of fabric is under it. The fabric shows a print of a rectangle that says “I stand with trans athletes” with a small flower in one corner.
I’ve printed this screen so many times I think the mesh is about to rip. I burned it in 2018 I think and I’ve gotten probably 1000 patches out of it.
I’ll burn a new one when I need to, but happy with another 88 patches printed today 💪🏼
DM me if you want one! They are free if you’re in the US.
The first page of a comic featuring cat-like people. The main character is a bike messenger. They arrive at a buildings dock for a delivery and are met with a nasty dock manager who ogles the main character with uncomfortable familiarity.
The second page shows the dock manager offering a building pad in exchange for the main character number. She refuses and walked into the building anyway. She delivered her package and braces on her way back down the elevator. The dock manager is waiting, holding her bike hostage in exchange for a number again. The main character tells the man to let go of her bike.
The third page. The main character reels back with a u-lock in her hand and threatens to break the man’s hand if he doesn’t let go. He recoils and she speedily leaves the dock, trailed by the man calling her a bitch and saying he’ll teach her a lesson. The last frame is a wide shot of the main character riding her bike, exhaling a sigh of relief.
The last page. Later that day the main character is resting in a park, laying against a tree. Her radio beeps and her dispatcher says the dock manager called the office. The dock manager accused the main character of being drunk and assaulting building guests. She protests and says that is not true. The dispatcher doesn’t want to risk the clients in the building and removes her from any further jobs in the building. She protests again, saying that will hurt her income. The dispatcher hangs up. Face in hands, the main character looks to the sky in a panned-out scene from the park yelling “god dammit.” A banner reads “I am woman. Hear me roar.”
The full comic series in one post! This is a true story from when I was a bike messenger in 2010. While I’ve had many experiences of sexism/chauvinism impacting my career over the years, this one I hold a grudge for.
A black and white hand drawn illustration that says “I love my trans friends” surrounded by simple flowers
An illustration of a flowing banner and sparkles that reads “Trans as in transcendent”
An illustration of a red rose with a banner that reads “I stand with trans athletes”
A block letter poster that reads “No TERFs”

My favorite linen couch pillows were starting to get threadbare after years of use, so today I took the covers apart, salvaged the zipper and as much usable fabric as I could, and remade the covers! I’m stoked my fav pillows can live on. And I’m proud of my zipper-install!

Love/hate finding other folks making comics about how nasty men ruin their life
Within the first month at my current job, like 100 of us were standing in a room watching a presentation. I took my hair down to adjust it and this fucking guy behind me put his whole nose in the back of my neck, breathed deeply and whispered “Leave it down.” Him and Brett can rot together.

A comic spread with a cartoon cat-person. It shows the main character (a bike messenger) resting then being paged by their boss. The boss explains due to untrue and harmful lies from a dock-worker, they can do longer work with a client anymore, which will cause financial strife for the main character.
