There are things I only draw when I'm sad, and it's only through the act of art-making that I can navigate the dark.

56 pages of lush illustrations paired with a moving, uplifting comic.

I hope you'll enjoy my new book 😊💖

Front cover: a digital painting of a close-up human figure facing away from the screen. He's wearing a black short-sleeve shirt with white flowers patterns and a pair of light tan shorts. His right arm lays on his side with his fingers curled up in a relaxed, yet melancholic expression. The outline of his body is lit in a bright yellow hue that fades into deep orange.

He looks out onto a hazy, dream-like landscape. There are no distinguishable details, only soft waves of colours fading into each other: from deep orange at the bottom to a murky light yellow at the top. The ambiguous scene feels like it could either be a sunrise, or a sunset.

The handwritten title of the book lays on top of the illustration: “Things I Only Draw When I’m Sad. By Hien Pham.”

Back cover: the logline and content warning of the book display in a deep dark orange over the hazy scenery like in the front cover: “A collection of paintings on feeling things deeply, and a comic on how art has helped me navigate the dark. Content warning: heavy mental health topics, mention of sexual assault, artistic nudity.”

Today, 144 years ago, 1600 Crown troops invaded a pacifist settlement that was the centre of resistance against British colonialism. The leaders were arrested, the settlement sacked, the people violated.

For many in Aotearoa, November 5th is Parihaka Day, or Te Rā o te Pāhua: The Day of Plunder.

NHS Sussex are forcibly detransitioning trans people. These patients need full restoration of their healthcare, and everyone involved in doing this needs to be sacked.

Sophie Molly @sophiemolly.co.uk · 2d

"Laura fears all will be lost if ICB Sussex forces her child off the medication.

If ICB Sussex get their own way in a matter of weeks and they force detransition, Olive may well take her life."

[pretty sure i took this like 6 years ago, but taking photos is hard for me, so here is a re-issue.]

Shirtless man smiling brightly, wearing a backward black cap and silver chain. Tattoos on his chest read “Queer Cripple” and show a muscular figure in a wheelchair and a unicorn.

Devastating. Teen Vogue's politics coverage has been incredible and this is a major loss for journalism.

Legacy journalism keeps on getting rid of the only people making it worth anything anymore.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Ireland has the worst environmental protections and the worst construction standards in western Europe, because of business lobbying, DFI and jobs for the boys. Hence our disastrous children's hospital project, for example. Martin is talking out of his Me-hole even more than usual.

And don't get me started on Jim O'Callaghan. A Minister for Justice spreading misinformation in the aftermath of an arson attack on women and children. Shouldn't have to resign. Should be fired. Gross incompetence, at best. Spare me the lot of them.

Simon Harris is a coward and a bully who would rather scapegoat innocent communities of vulnerable people rather than face up to the failures of either his government or himself as a leader, a Cabinet minister and a human being. Couldn't think less of him and have no problem saying it.

The biggest problem Ireland has with migration is that the state always favours segregation over integration. Thousands of decent people have spare rooms & unused top floors they could rent to asylum seekers and homeless people, with minimal adaptations. But they'd be dispersed. Can't have that!

I used cold running water and salt a lot for relatively fresh stains.
Gentle scrubbing, pressing the fabric together and letting the salt break up the blood.
For more set stains, or after trying once or twice with the salt, perioxide or stuff like oxiclean/denture tablets can help with lifting stain

If you’re out here wringing your hands writing articles about why a bloke who thinks immigrants get free cars wrote “cunt” on his ballot paper, instead of writing articles about the well funded fascists who ran a campaign aimed at that guy, then you have no business pretending to be a journalist

Getting a face on listening to the noisy/fun “Dublin Nights” event on Capel St wondering what the straight community would do without gay MCs to host their family events who use every survival trick they learned as little gay boys to be the camp harmless entertaining one who’s always happy and *FUN*

I'm thinking about the mass disabling events in Gaza, Sudan and the Congo and all the people who will become disabled and have less resources to navigate that.
