First day of autumn calls for a nice cup of chai and queer horror (this newest addition to my personal library- Hello Sunshine by @keezyyoung.bsky.social- just came in the mail today, a day earlier than I anticipated!! I’m very excited!!!)

Decrying violence against political opponents rings a bit hollow when you pull Secret Service protection from your political opponents.

The murder of Charlie Kirk was criminal, wrong, and should be condemned.

And Charlie Kirk was a horrible, hateful man who spent his life radicalizing young people to embrace their worst demons by targeting women, people of color, immigrants, and the marginalized.

I refuse to sanitize him.

I am SO excited about this and I am planning to be so insufferable about it when this comes out.
Exciting! I like Richard Linklater a lot.

Coming to theaters on Oct. 31 and Netflix on Nov. 14. That gives you plenty of time to rewatch "Breathless" beforehand. #filmsky www.youtube.com/watch?v=UufR...

Little late night sketch of me sketching in bed. I swear I love this brush pen so much I can’t believe it took me this long to find out that bristle brush pens actually exist 😭. I’m sure I’ve said that before but I’m still in shock that it’s a thing

From here on out I am on a book buying ban. No more new books— my physical tbr list is ridiculous at this point and I simply don’t have the space…except for the books I already have coming in on preorder… and also the books/graphic novels I’m already invested in the series of…

Some sketches I drew of the beautiful light fixtures and wine bottles at the French restaurant my partner and I ate at over the weekend plus a head that was part of some decorative part of a really amazing (but waaay expensive) dresser drawer we saw at an estate sale. #sketchbook #artsky #art

I discovered that I don’t actually have to be an NYC resident to get a Brooklyn Public Library card (I already have the NYPL one because of that very same reason) and now I have 4 library cards on my Libby 😎

I was singing Voilà by Barbara Pravi to myself and I just realized that I have no idea who won Eurovision this year—I usually check in during May, but, things have been so emotionally draining/hectic for me personally and also in the worldwide sense(🫠), I just totally forgot

With the awful news from the last couple hours, this post from the political optimism subreddit helped to break through a bit of the despair fog. Repubs know this is political suicide, ICE's support is crumbling despite the budget increase, and there's a myriad of ways to fight back. Keep strong.

RUIN.

THEIR.

LIVES.
really does feel like if we can cyberbully the House into passing changes on the shit they openly hate and get it kicked back upstairs again there’s a chance it might not survive the Senate a second time

if you live in a GOP state it’s time to ruin a House rep’s life
The package now goes to the House who is expected to vote on it this week. Any changes to the bill in the House will force the Senate to take up the bill again.

The current bill as written raises the debt limit by $5 trillion.

If you just look at social media instead of news sources, you might believe the “big beautiful bill” has passed already.

It hasn’t. It still needs to go through the House, where it has a strong chance of failing — so yes, feel as sad and angry and scared as you need, but PLEASE CALL YOUR REPS.

If there’s anything history has taught me, it’s that we’ve got to keep moving, keep living, keep creating, keep fighting. Call your reps. This isn’t over—like actually this bill still has to pass the house. CALL YOUR REPS.

hey I am posting this because I didn't know it, and so others might not either: but the BBB has NOT PASSED YET-- it's passed the senate & now it must pass the house.

It's time to call reps RIGHT NOW. Johnson is going to push the vote ASAP before backlash can form so the calls need to start NOW.

Things are looking pretty rough right now in the world 🫠 but here’s the last of my self-portraits.

Meant to post this yesterday but was a little emotionally drained: Added a new I voted sticker to the back of my sketchbook! I’m so relieved at the results of the primaries in my city and in NYC. Idk what’s gonna happen in the general election, but I feel something like hope.

As I continue my quest of trying to build a mental reference library for drawing fierce, majestic dragons, I ask the important questions…

2nd to last batch of self portraits I’ve made! They’ve all been done for a while but I just like to spread out posting them. It would be a little bit of a jump scare for me to glance at my profile and see endless variations of my own face lol

Observe as I discover that my mental reference library for dragons is absolutely zero. A goose egg, if you may lol
