I'll start with my oldest work. It was one of my first attempts at drawing Maestro, and my goodness… I can see so many mistakes now… Maybe I should redraw it later? I'll think about it!

Especially now, my drawing skills have gotten way better! (at least I think so)

“Cave Johnson here. I’ve received complaints from anonymous employees that our support of the “homosexual lifestyle” is “degenerate” and “irresponsible”. It really got me thinking and I think I found a solution. So good news! We now have 23 vacated positions reserved for members of the LGBT community. Additional good news, we began a new testing initiative on evolutionary degenration with 23 test subjects all ready to go.“

I still love this drawing. It has so much… aggression? Threat? I never manage to capture the right emotion in a drawing, but I got lucky here! And I like to think that their tattoos can move around their body when they change clothes or during intense emotional moments…you know what I mean

imo Time Lords should engage in consensual cannibalism more. they have spare bodies it's fine. it's fiiine.

just a little nibble now and then. cause they're hungry. frankly you're own body makes great nourishment when you're stuck for the second month in some stupid hole you fell in and your friend can't fly his TARDIS. When someone regenerates and is in that state of flux everyone comes in to have a meal. It'll literally grow back in a minute it's no big deal. If you're not at least drinking some blood it's not sex

This whole thing about scanning your face to prove tour age is making me remember, in 2018 while out in paris we got our wallet stolen during a particularly busy night at a lesbian bar. It was very late and with no money to buy metro tickets we were effectively stranded, but some people helped us and we ended up staying the night at a really sweet older man's place. His face was deeply scarred and he was missing an eye. We chatted on our way and he told me about his life, probably to help calm me down. He explained he had been stuck in a house fire 20 years ago and had had multiple rounds of facial reconstruction and a skin graft, but there's only so much surgery can do so he just learned to live with it. I remember he said he liked the queer bars because they're the only place people don't really stare at him.

At some point I took out my phone, and at the time I was using face unlock. This prompted him to tell me all the ways this technology doesn't work on him. How his phone selfie camera doesn't focus right because it's not detecting a face. How he had to update his ID the old fashioned way, because the website kept rejecting his photos. And how it was becoming more and more common, and how it was making his life way harder.

This was 7 years ago, and now whenever I see this sort of technology I think of how that guy can't use it. And how house fires are pretty common, and how anything from being born this way to a skin condition to heavy tattooing can probably cause the same issue. Can these people get age verified ? Will they just lose access to all social media, which are increasingly necessary in society, if this becomes the norm ? These are people who are already driven out of public spaces due to how they look, and they're getting pushed out online too all in the interest of companies wanting more money.

There was a lot of stuff I was supposed to do today, but instead I've made this:

shattering ppl's worldview by informing them the way time lords do gender is fundamentally transphobic one discord message at a time.

My run on Doctor Who will of course be mostly onboarding, I am a pragmatist. But if by popular demand I somehow get to the point of being able to bring in the Master, know that I will make Chibs look like a casual, and by that I don’t mean in lore, but in the fact that the Master is coming back a furry. Full blown Cheetah-person, rip the poor schmuck who is getting 5 hours in the makeup chair every day.
