American trans pals, life is going to get hard. We know that. I could write a long post about strategies for coming years, but I feel like that will only create decision paralysis here on Day 1.

So, some little things to do today and tomorrow towards becoming a more resilient person:

Refill your meds / schedule your next bloodwork appt or other healthcare visits you need - prioritize your health. If you can only do 1 thing today, do this, because it's the end of the year and you might not get on the books for a while.

Cancel a subscription you don't need, or that free trial that is about to expire - small steps to saving money

Pick up a passport form at the post office. If you don't need it, get one for a friend who does

Get a notebook and/or folder for printouts. You will use it soon for collecting hard copies of future healthcare options outside your home state, while the information can still be found online

Get a box or bin. You will want to start collecting items around your home to sell/donate/trash in the interests of downsizing. But just get a box or two today.

Talk to a friend

Get some rest

I can't promise we'll be ok, but we can try to set ourselves up so we bend instead of breaking in this storm.

I’ll get better pictures soon but he’s done!! Again come say hi at Motor City ComicCon and you might get a surprise :3

anyway if you feel bad about the palestinians undergoing a genocide who will inevitably get blamed for being in a situation that "cost kamala the election" as if they’re the ones wielding power over her and not vice versa, consider donating to my gazan friend, who is vetted as #4 here. donations of €10 or more are eligible for a commission, DM me.

my buddy got really hurt in a biking accident so I went to go make them soup for dinner in their apartment but whilst I was transporting an entire jar of garlic in my tote bag to add to the soup amongst other things all the liquid spilled and soaked into my palm sized mothman plush who is now rife with garlic scent and I don’t know how to fix this. Please how do I ungarlickify my son

Delighted we are getting an ending to Good Omens. Relieved NG appears to be getting the bare minimum financial benefits that his prior contracts with Amazon will allow, and also as little involvement in production as is feasible.

Still furious that that absolute creep has harmed so many people, and intend to keep banging on about that to make sure he never gets access to vulnerable people through his fame ever again.

hot artists don't gatekeep

I've been resource gathering for YEARS so now I am going to share my dragons hoard

Comparing Heights. Input the heights of characters to see what the different is between them. Great for keeping consistency. Free.

Magma. Draw online with friends in real time. Great for practice or hanging out. Free, paid plan available, account preferred.

Smithsonian Open Access. Loads of free images. Free.

SketchDaily. Lots of pose references, massive library, is set on a timer so you can practice quick figure drawing. Free.

SculptGL. A sculpting tool which I am yet to master, but you should be able to make whatever 3d object you like with it. free.

Pexels. Free stock images. And the search engine is actually pretty good at pulling up what you want.

Figurosity. Great pose references, diverse body types, lots of "how to draw" videos directly on the site, the models are 3d and you can rotate the angle, but you can't make custom poses or edit body proportions. Free, account option, paid plans available.

Line of Action. More drawing references, this one also has a focus on expressions, hands/feet, animals, landscapes. Free.

Animal Photo. You pose a 3d skull model and select an animal species, and they give you a bunch of photo references for that animal at that angle. Super handy. Free.

Height Weight Chart. You ever see an OC listed as having a certain weight but then they look Wildly different than the number suggests? Well here's a site to avoid that! It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

I have to admit. I like the "therian masks".

I like it as a trend on tiktok, esspecially for younger alterhumans.

BECAUSE IT CONSEALS THEIR IDENTITY.

Way too often before the trend i would see little kids plastering their face online. Announcing their age. Basically posting their location.

I knew people who got hurt from it.

Is it annoying that people think it's a "requirement" for therianthropy? Yeah.

But at least it's serving a better purpose of safety with an added benefit of species euphoria.

ok I know Please Don’t Touch Me from Young Frankenstein is making fun of Elizabeth being a tease and the irony of her asking not to to be touched, but as a newly discovered asexual that song was my SHIT

the idea that someone could establish a boundary about their sexuality without having to betray their confidence and their outgoing personality to be seen as “less desirable” was beyond me and I wanted to be her

Happy spooky season everyone
