Ryne looks at the viewer (Thancred) eyes wide and haunted. Her pink ribbon lies loose and tangled beneath her arms. The mirror, cracked, shows Thancred standing, eyes shaded. Other cracks show Fatebreaker.
Out flew the web and floated wide;
The mirror crack'd from side to side;
'The curse is come upon me,' cried
The Lady of Shalott.

But also do I even want to do a masters? Debatable. I love my work.
Back in the cycle of contemplating a masters vs not having money and definitely not being able to get grants for the stuff I want to work in

Uh...
Being part of the covid years in academia was felt hopeless and like we were all left to drown but im also so glad I wasnt part of the genAI years of academia
recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best. It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.
it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI
Pokemon Legends ZA is so good when you dont have haters in ur ear telling u its bad

A cassette tape for "The fairytales of St. Sasha" and a small pouch of stickers representing The Narcissist Cookbook on a grey bed. A pale hand is making a heart shape at them.
My selfish gifts to myself arrived yesterday. Today has been low spoons but okay.
A Beginner's Guide to Building Your Own Chrysalis by Alex Cregan with artwork by Sofftpunk the cover imagery frames the title and shows the lifecycle of a caterpillar. the drawing is rendered in black, white, green, purple, & pink
The following text is framed by artwork bu sofftpunk. an arm is seen reaching into a jar in which a butterfly is held. the drawing is active with light and trailing movement and rendered in black, white, green, purple, blue, and pink. 2. Shelve the word the first time you hear it. Shelve the feeling — the way your heart feels like sparking static, like caffeine buzz and hummingbird wings. Shelve how you want to sing in harmony with those others like you, with this other you, with everything and everyone that has made you Not Completely Alone Anymore, Not Entirely Alien. Still, shelve it anyway. Shelve that tender, blooming, bursting feeling, the unity in mind and body you spend your entire life missing. Shelve it, shelve it with a deafening thud, with white knuckle trepidation, shelve it with glossy eyes and trembling hands. Shelve it ‘til you’re terrified, shelve it ‘til you’re numb.

Tattoos = Gender ? Alex Cregan In the end, its all needles and process. An ink cartridge or an elixir are interchangeable, someone’s mother is still screaming “irreversible-!” anyway. I still leave changed, a little more tied to this flesh-mass-thing, a little less static and, dare I say, ecstatic? Regardless, those who love us will gush over our new chitin, asking about the growing exoskeleton. It reminds me of being fourteen, doodling wishes into my skin. I dreamed that when they’d seep into my bloodstream they’d become reality, as if it was that easy. In the end, we are all eternally morphing, chameleons shedding skins we’ve long outgrown and still we are shifting. In the end, its all needles and process. The pain is secondary.
The cover of engendered autumn 2025 on a background of dark grey. On the cover is a heavily textured painting by Jude FireSong consisting of layers of colour, first daubed or smeared, and then speckled. Dominant are red, orange, yellow, light blue, and medium blue though purple, green, and pink also make an appearance. Beside and below the cover is the following text: 20 writers, poets, & artists “as I move through the world, people project images of bodies and faces they assign onto me that evoke in themselves desire, lust, joy, disgust, emotions I have no say over. Perceptions against my will. And those images stain my skin and reek. I'm forced every day to carry those stains” Thokozani Mbwana engenderedlitmag.com
"a little more tied to this flesh-mass-thing, a little less static and, dare I say, ecstatic?... It reminds me of being fourteen, doodling wishes into my skin."

The image is black and white, but overlaid with the trans flag. The term "T4T" is in block white letters over the top of the image.
