Bunnygirl but make it horror

“Who/what is this” I don’t know man I sit down to make art with some definite idea in mind and forty minutes later I emerge from a haze of hyperfixation and look at the page like “wait that’s not what I was gonna draw”

Just a normal alt girl. Normal alt girls have fangs and can see in the dark, right?….

Redid the journal comic a little bit to express a slightly different idea.

Been feeling frustrated a lot about not having energy to make art like I’d like to so decided to make some art about that

Oh, and please, write letters to your democratic politicians thanking them for what they have done and telling them how important it is.

Politicians, lawmakers, judges, are all going to be under tremendous amounts of pressure during this presidency to move right or else risk actual danger.

I know nobody likes a politician, but please tell your democratic politicians how important the work they do is and how much it has meant.

I can’t imagine a more terrifying time to be a left-leaning politician.

You can do this from home. Please, if you’re in the US and can do so, tell them how important what they’ve done to fight for your rights has been.

I know not all that many people follow me, but I’ll say this anyway.

Look out for those who are most vulnerable in your communities. Yes, queer people especially trans people, disabled people, but also immigrants, people of color, religious minorities. Speak up any time you hear someone talk badly about immigrants. Speak up any time you hear someone say something racist. Whatever our elected officials might be like, it’s not an excuse to give up and let racism and bigotry fester in our own communities.

Those who are at most risk right now are arguably the immigrants, so please, be nice to the immigrants you see around you, be a caring voice when the leadership of this country has said they do not care. Help with food banks and other charities if you can. Speak up for those who can’t speak English well, be a voice for those who have no voice. If you are not bilingual, learn a few phrases in Spanish or the other languages immigrants in your community speak. Learn how to wish them a nice day, how to say ‘how can I help?’.

If you hear those around you making bigoted jokes or remarks, do not let that pass.

The leadership of this country stinks. Okay. Many leaders throughout history have been awful. But the little people, us little people, have still had to do our best to keep on keeping on. Whatever tragedies and grand injustices happen, we little insignificant people do our best to keep on, and be kind to those around us, and support each other.

Community support is perhaps all that many of our most marginalized and vulnerable friends will be able to receive now, with the government loudly declaring it doesn’t give a shit. So community support is more important than ever.

We—me, you, most of the people we know—are small and insignificant to the world, and the most important thing we can do is to remember that we are still significant to each other, our lives are still significant to ourselves. So we carry on and extend kindness where we can, any time we can. To others and ourselves.

Kings come and go. Empires rise and fall. The little insignificant people, though—we remain throughout history, and we carry on.

So, I use printer paper to doodle on bc it’s cheap, and occasionally when the printer is running low on paper I’ll grab some of the unused paper out of my drawing stash and fill it back up

….

….I’m glad I checked the form I printed out and realized it had a pencil doodle of a clown with big tits on the back *before* I turned in the form 💀

Consuming media is so much more enjoyable once you stop caring about “is it good” as a metric for whether you watch it or enjoy it. But it’s not just more enjoyable, I genuinely believe you get a deeper insight into culture and people from watching movies/listening to songs/reading books/etc that just kinda suck, especially if it’s from past decades. It gives you a much more well-rounded picture of the past and the people that lived in it than exclusively consuming Oscar winners and number one singles does.

Every time I’m not alone I wear my hair pushed forward in bangs because of my prominent forehead. It makes me look very different from when I have my hair pushed back, which I only do when I’m completely alone, looking in the mirror. So this attempted self-portrait is (if I do say so myself) extremely accurate—well, aside from the colors—and yet I have no doubt that if I showed it to anyone I know they wouldn’t realize it’s supposed to be me.

Not sure if I’m at all happy with them or not so I’ll post them now and delete them if I wake up tomorrow and don’t like them anymore 😆

Couple of unrelated Phantom of the Paradise pictures. Second is what I imagine Swan might have looked like a few years before the fatal encounter with Winslow.

Rewatched the movie for the fourth or fifth time today and I love it more than ever. It’s all about the symbolismmm🙌

Since it’s Halloween (well, Halloween month at least) I feel obligated to share one of the more obscure Star Trek books I own with y’all.

The title is Trek or Treat, and it’s a collection from 1977 that consists of about 50 stills from the show combined with “humorous” captions.

Uh huh. I’m sure Kirk does, but I’m not convinced the authors of this book did!

Okay, the Spock’s Brain one made me chuckle. Slightly.

Is this a nod to The Premise or just plain old “haha two men in a relationship is funny” homophobic humor? Hard to say!

Like I said…it’s not a good book, it’s a compilation of the 70s equivalent of low-effort shitposts. Do I still love it? Well, of course!

Trek or Treat!

Yknow, he has a fun set of facial features and I know he’s a beloved camp horror actor, but I still haven’t watched a movie with Vincent Price that I’ve really loved. Which is to say, I’m very open to suggestions!
