I wanted to comment this under the Corellon’s Funniest Prank but my real name is on my account so I’m here on anon instead :) ANYWAYS-

I’ve loved the whole comic so far and I love everything else you create!! I’m gonna struggle to word this concisely, but the attention to detail in your nsfw works in particular draws me in hard like not even in an entirely monkey-brained horny way, but also in an I-appreciate-your-skill way :)

I was never really able to place why your works appeal to me so intensely until I re-read the Corellon comic and noticed that in pt 1 when drow pulls his face back after going down on Astarion, the wetness is mostly gathered on his chin. And to me, that would imply that his lips and tongue were mostly focused above her?/his? entrance (sry I’m trying to not be too graphic 💀), which I love! Maybe I’m too nitpicky, but I feel like it’s so common to see - in all forms of nsfw content - that specific sex act portrayed in a way that isn’t actually all that pleasurable to the person receiving it. Like tongue focused everywhere but the one spot that feels the best to touch. As someone who enjoys being on both the giving and receiving end of box eating, it’s so refreshing to see you portray it so well!

I think that what draws me to your art, among many other things of course, is that you do an amazing job drawing characters who seem to be focused on actually pleasing each other instead of it being two people just doing sex to each other for no reason other than to activate the horny brain of the person viewing it. Like it feels real and intentional, sometimes to the point where I feel like I’m intruding on something I wasn’t intended to see /pos

Also you’ve said before that it was interesting to you that lesbians are so drawn to your drow, and I think that all of that ^ is at least part of the reason why. Obviously I don’t speak for all wlw/sapphics, but that’s definitely the case for me! Your drow is a munch and he seems to do it for the love of the game (pleasing his beloved) more so than anything else, and I feel a sense of solidarity with him because of it lol

Thank you for this wonderful write-up!!! I'm sometimes unsure if people will appreciate my "take" on explicit material, because I understand that not everything that is titillating is necessarily realistic, and vice versa - and I sincerely don't concern myself with making things realistic, BUT a degree of realism is necessary for it to be effective to me, at least... Does that make sense?

I guess to try an put it in a way that's slightly less convoluted, I'm glad that people see what I'm doing WRT depictions of relationship without it taking away from the horny aspect, lol. This comic in particular has also landed me in a lot of interesting exchanges about expectations people have around sex, too, which to be honest is one of the most rewarding things about it.

Flowers & Stinging

still life I just did in two hours

I think this is technically the first post of artwork I've made that doesn't include my sona or anything else from/inspired by those I know, and isn't fan art.

Huh.

You have personally helped me a lot to embrace and be more comfortable with my 6'1"(186cm) 400lb(180kg) body more than anyone else I can think of.

I've always been terrified of continuing to grow up to look like my dad, but seeing your art of cute boys and girls who I can see myself in, and most importantly see the love you've put into drawing them had made me so much happier with just being myself and not demanding impossible beauty standards of myself.

Like, it's been so helpful to see you make flattering art of fat people and gush about how much you appreciate how it changes the body in ways that I used to think revolting because I was indoctrinated to believe so.

It's hard to be trans, it's hard to be GNC, and I am so glad that you're willing to talk about it; because it makes me feel so much less alone to know that other people are struggling with similar things to what I am.

Thanks Salem, thank you so much.

yeah my art can be horny sometimes but I hope my love and appreciation for bodies show, because I am often told people rarely see diverse furries with different body types (especially trans and POC coded) and I'm honored to have people like my stuff despite not being the first to do this.

ik this isnt my usual type of post, but i wanted to share this. i feel asleep in the middle of the day today (Easter sunday) and had this dream.

i was in the metro with my mom to get some food, because i had just dropped out of a prestigious college (in the dream) and was very upset (the collage was difficult and stressful and i hated almost everyone there, just not a fun time, also i got mold on my feet there?). we were going to talk about it over food.

at one of the stops, someone pushes a piano into the metro and they start playing. it was verying impressive and beautiful. when they stop, someone else plays it, it was also very good. this continues, different people i wouldn't have looked twice at in public come to the piano and play beautiful music. it was all different types of music, but it was all good.

stilling right next to us was my great grandfather, he died 5 years ago (2020). me and my mom are talking to him like we all walked into the metro together (we did not) and was not a strange thing to happen. he starts falling asleep, we try to keep him awake and one of the things my mom does is read the newspaper to him. when he hears that someone is reading to him, he wakes up and takes the paper. he tells her "don't read to me! i can read well enough on my own".

he continues reading the paper out loud. while reading, my great grandfather skips a word, and my mom points it out. he says that the words all move around when he reads, but reading in french (the language the newspaper was in) is better then reading in armenian (our mother-tongue) since armenian letters all look the same and the words are easier to mix up if you are not paying attention. he says thats why french is his favorite language. i tell him i have a simular issue, and he smiles.

the newspaper disappears and my mom tells me to massage his hands since his arthritis is acting up, so i massage his hands. hes listening to the music now and tells me he used to play the guitar. he also shows me a picture he drew of the back of an electric guitar with the serial number and screws and everything. and also shows me the tattoo he has of the serial number of the guitar on his upper arm right next to a tattoo of the back panel scews of a guitar. i get the distinct feeling that he learned it in heaven, and also got the tattoo there. im not a very religious person so im suprised that i was thinking that. i guess i assumed when he came down to visit me in the metro he was an old man again? idk

anyway he tells me that he cant play the guitar anymore because his hands don't work like they used to. i tell him i i've been wanting to learn the guitar, but i hadn't gotten around to it.

he tells me that i can't give up when something is hard, and that if i do, i wont ever do anything. and that will make me a very sad person.

he doesn't say this, but i know hes not talking about becoming a pittiful person, hes talking about becoming a person who is very unsatisfied with their life and incredibly sad. who has gotten to the point where looking for their happiness doesn't even register as a solution to become happier.

after he tells me this, he becomes very tired. My mom tells me to let him sleep since he is tired and should rest. he falls asleep very quickly and i wake up.

#my art #dream i had #when i woke i cried and told my mom abt my dream #i was crying because i got to see him for the first time in a long time and he was so much more energetic then the last time i saw him #the dream wasnt as smooth as i wrote it to be cuz there was crzy metro stuff that happened #and the collage i went to was its own crazy thing #but all that other stuff was a footnote metro ride and the conversation i had with him #its alittle on the nose that i got this dream know #since i just got back to my old job that i hated #and droped out of fashion school #and am kinda lost with what im going to do #cuz i know what i want to do and what i need to do to do it #but when i try #i would get so stressed it would leave me in the fungus state and i would rot #like genuinely rot in bed for weeks with crazy depression #then after i would spend weeks recovering from that depression and ugh yeah #so im back at this job and im like #is this really what im going to do for the rest of my life?#and a part of me is kind of ready to except that cuz getting like that scares me #then i have this dream #and hes so right #im going to make myself the most miserable person i know if i give up when shit is hard #so im going to try #and its going to be hard because i haven't tried in a long time and i dont know if i can really try any more #but i did it before so i can do it again #even if its harder then it used to be #ill be trying #also sharing this cuz idk who else need to hear this #and if no one does #well atlest i wote down this dream so i can come back a remeber it again

One of the interesting bits of trying to resume working on the game after so long is looking back at my ancient Draft Placeholder versions of an image from 4 yrs ago trying to remember what the hell I meant back then, to hopefully interpret it into some more final (ish..) form of the same thing .. making slow progress lol

#At this point I've decided it's just a consistent design decision to have the sketchy slightly wonky sort of art ghbjj #I simply don't have the digital art skills/tools/patience (mostly that) to do 100% digital things and have a Clean Polished Professional #Neat Looking Perfect Crisp Lines sort of thing like one would see in most games. I'm drawing everything in pencil half decently (not strict #ly making sure every line is straight or that the perspective even makes sense) and then scanning it in and coloring it on the computer #and that's about it. In another world I could hire an artist or two to do professional backgrounds and charcter art or etc. - but as I am #a mere penniless peasant hermit with functioning issues who has to do every aspect of everything themselves - I'm just going to do #what is possible within the time frame/my ability/etc. and then just be like ''ah you see! actually this is intentional~ it has a homemade #crafty hand drawn sort of charm about it - yes? this was the direction all along!!'' LOL #Which for the record I'm not like complaining that it's necssarily Bad or anything - more just I suppose not the Professional Polished #style you Typically see in a lot of things - again the like - sketchy unclean lines of it all.#(like I think usually people use some sort of symmetry tool to make sure that all sides of a box are neat and clean and have that #Professional Game Art type of feel about them - rather than 'this is a scan of scraggily pencil lines in which I did not even bother to use #a ruler or try to get them all that even' lol). So it's not that it's BAD really.#just I think.. perhaps ''unconventional'' compared to the examples of other #games I've looked at. BUT. the point is to convey an idea. I think your art has failed if you do not convey a concept properly. But so #long as it meets your purposes and is not SOO cluttered/scribbly that nobody can even tell what's going on (unless that IS your intention)#then like.. I think it's fine. You can tell a house is a house even if it's not polished. No worries. (<convincing myself)#ANYWAY.. also 'Nanyevimi Market Quest' is still SUCH a placeholder name but I genuinely can never think of anything else so #I've just been going with it for now ToT... There's no distinct actual throughline story/plot so there's no 'theme' to base a title #around. Kind of like how 'The Sims' is just called the sims because naming it like 'Sims: Downfall Of Pleasantview' (one of the #towns in TS2 i think) would be a weird misname since what happens in the game totally depends on what you choose to do with it #So you can't really name it anything THAT specific (a player might not even choose to have a house in Pleasantview. what then? etc).#So it's just like..uh well...GENERALLY speaking.. everyone is uh.. on a personal quest..vaguely.. which takes place in a Market street full #of shops.. and you are mostly talking to shopkeepers... BUT it's not just a Market Quest since it's also in a fantasy world.. so we need to #give the fantasy world name.. and that's about it. I'm just at a loss for anything else. Maybe the like 2 and a half playtesters I #manage to scrounge up will have better ideas ghhh.. 'Nanyevimi Quest: Get To Know Some Shopkeepers' 'Find A Job In Fantasy World' you could #say 'Market Adventure' but some would argue just having a bunch of conversations and wandering around is not much of a real adventure.#don't want to set people up for thinking there's any drama or combat or anything. 'Do Menial Errands For Mentally Ill Elves Simulator' ghjg #(also sidenote: the '''chibi'' style versions of the characters on the menu screen....EVIL.. that style is SOOO hard for me to draw in for #some reason.. I just can't get the proportions right/have trouble fully ''simplifying'' the design.. took me HOURS lol... aUGHh)

Di Angelo Siblings

Sooo, to absolutely no one's surprise the new Percy Jackson reboot kicked me into full-blown pjo brainrot mode again lol. I saw these super cute fits and some vintage photos of Venice alleyways floating around on Pinterest and was consumed with the need to draw the Di Angelo siblings in them (it's probably wildly "historically and geographically" inaccurate for them, but we're just going to have to deal with the fact that I'm dumb and uncultured xD It's the vibes™ that count, okay!)

Psst, wanna see something cringe😂? Found this old sketch of them from one of my first forays into digital art years ago:

And to quote past-me "I can barely look at the old one, but at least that means I improved, aye?"😂

#pjo #percy jackson #percy jackson and the olympians #pjo series #pjo show #shioris_art #fanart #digital art #pjo fanart #nico di angelo #bianca di angelo #di angelo siblings #well if there is one thing I certainly haven't improved on it's being able to make people actually look the ages they're supposed to be #they both still look a bit too old; they also look like they're judging your entire existance but that's probably fair for Hades' kids lol #proportions and colours are still a little off too; but hey this piece had a very complicated history ok xD??#ok so to go on a bit of a semi-personal rant (scroll away now if you don't wanna see woe-is-me-artist ramblings xD):#I've finally made a veeery old dream of mine come true and got myself a graphic tablet with a display 🥺 fancy glove and all XD #my ratty old wacom has served me well but it really makes such a difference to be able to see wtf you're doing when you move the pen xD #so this is my first piece to celebrate the occasion and oh my goodness...#digital art is hard 😭😭#I'm studying to become a textile designer I have used Photoshop extensively for almost the last 6 years #*slaps roof of my brain* this bad boy can fit so many shortcuts and encyclopedic knowledge of all its features in it #I know this godforsaken program inside out but goddamn it have I never felt so dumb before lmao #wow so shocking who knew that designing patterns and making fanart with like sketching and anatomy and shit would be completely different🤪?#but it really is so different I seriously felt so dumb and like I had to learn how to use photoshop completely from scratch again xD #I did all of my other digital works on my tiny ass phone (Ibis Paint my beloved♡) and Ive had years to kinda establish an ok workflow there #in a weird way having more tools and options at my disposal hindered my workflow so much more because I would get into analysis paralysis #over every brush stroke; every colour selection; brightness adjustion etc.#idk it's kinda weird I wonder if people can relate

Somebody interacting with and reblogging your self ship art is the greatest joy known to man

#I never posted any when i was 12 or so because i had an extremely toxic person in my life who would make fun of me for everything #And control what i did #So i kept it all to myself IN SECRET for over 2 years #And then after that for a multitude of reasons i became so closed off and dissociated from myself I couldnt access the parts of myself #That wanted to draw and post selfship. I was also too distant from myself to understand what the ''self'' part was #But here i am almost 24 years old. Spent tbe last 4 years working through trauma #At a point where i see my own self expression as something holy #And im like you need to look at this picture of me and star trek's captain kirk right now.#In theory. Because im still struggling a lot with the artistic process #I got boiled down to my core the last few years and had a major psychological breakdown bc it was time to feel the trauma #And i felt so lost and Ive been trying to piece together what love is and what having fun is #Because in earnest i couldnt remember anymore.#And ive made a lot of progress (Lots of moments where im like woag i feel like myself for thre first time in a decade)#But it's still really hard and there are still lots of things i struggle with #I can try and work on a drawing but 3 different traumas will come to the surface because making art tends to trigger 3 different things #So it's really hard to finish things 😅😅😅 BUT I WANT TO #BECAUSE I NEED YOU TO SEE THE PICTURES OF ME AND CAPTAIN KIRK.#BECAUSE HES MY FUCKING POOKIE ?!?!#When somebody hits reblog im like........ REAL?#Im like ITS REAL ? But also yeah it mskes me feel real #I kept selfship to myself for years and yeah i didnt feel real

People when fucked up media is actually Fucked Up and not just "haha silly little gremlin makes SEX JOKE?!?!🤯 so DEVIOUS..."

#mercy talks #this is about many things tbh #LIKE. idk it just makes me mad when ppl say they like darker or more depressing media and turn their nose up when its a character actually #being a bad person and doing bad things . like yeah thats what you came here for what did you expect #of course im not asking people to subject themselves to possibly upsetting/triggering media because its “”better“” or wtv #nor am i trying to police ppl for what they like #but idk.. just dont be surprised to find Fucked Up Thing in the Fucked Up Thing Store #its hard to verbalize myself but i hope u get it . i dont want tgis to sound like a braindead take Although I wouldn't be posting it if #i thought it did #some art is not meant to be pretty. some art isnt even meant to be art at all #because sometimes these things are not artistic or beautiful in any way #anyway mercy out!!

does anyone else feel like they need to Make Fan Content That Is Also Good And Interesting in order to make/keep internet friends so as to be worth other people’s time

#the internet is one big networking tool #genuine question because like. i know it’s unhealthy but i also feel like that’s kind of the economy created by the internet #i’m not advocating it and i’m also not trying to be self-deprecating #i was never great at art and i haven’t posted anything i’ve written in like 5 years #like for example. i put off making a dragon age blog for a while bc i don’t Do anything. even now that ive made it i feel like i don’t have #a leg to stand on to talk to my mutuals. we are always competing for attention on the internet #i’ve known a few people where like. i thought we were actual friends and not just fandom colleagues but i always felt like i had fo Prove I #Was Talented to keep them interested and like. again not healthy but i’m wondering how common that is #maybe that is just fandom colleague behavior and i misread the situation but uh #also to be clear i’m not trying to like. blame anyone or victimize myself #i’m mostly curious because i have seen people talk about how making friends on the internet is so much easier and i’m wondering #where that idea came from. bc i still think it’s hard. but i wonder if it’s easier if you’re one already posting Original And Interesting #Content. i mostly just make memes and meta at this point and it doesn’t get a lot of attention. which is fine #i’ve just found it markedly harder to meet people since i switched tacks #one of the reasons i burned out tbh. among other things. i’ve been picking writing up again but i don’t post anymore #honestly realizing this has probably bitten me in the ass before bc i’ve had friends who share stuff they’re proud of and i don’t jump on it #bc to me i’m trying to be like ‘you don’t have to prove yourself to me. i like you as a person’#but probably comes off like ‘i don’t care about the things you care about’. hm #mine

#Trying very hard not to be self conscious about the comic #Self consciousness is the inspiration killer #But I am very conscious that I am making A Lot of art and talking A Lot and I'm very conscious of annoying people #Or making people feel like I'm filling up a space so there's no room for them #I can be a pretty big personality when I'm comfoy and I've worked hard to let myself be but I worry about accidentally squashing people out #Because I don't want to do that! I want to lift people up with me!#Weh. I'm probably just ill and grumpy about it #Those of you who are out there saying really nice things about my art I love you #You keep me inspired #✨ ADHD ✨#This is why I'm a fandom lurker #But then people are nice and I'm like why am I worried so I make more things and thus the cycle continues #I like the things I'm making anyway and that's what counts 😤#Thank you for joining me on this journey

#i dont make art for other people #i dont run commissions. i dont sell my stuff online. i dont have booths at markets #i make my art for me and me only. yknow sometimes i make an art as a gift for someone #but most of the time i just make stuff for me because i want to make it #it would be nice. just once in a blue moon. to be able to actually share my art with someone else and be told ive done a good job on it #to have someone else genuinely go “hey good work i know youve been working on this piece for a lil while and it came out great!”#to have someone tell me theyre proud of me. to give me details of the parts they like about it #i dont share most of my art on here. i do sometimes but i am making things constantly #i dont share my stuff with the people irl either. and this is because every time i do #every time i either show them a finished piece or mention that im working on something cool. they immediately #immediately tell me i should monetize it #im like “hey im proud of myself for this thing i did look at this thing i did!”#and without fail every time its. “oh thats cool i guess you could probably sell that. are you going to start making more to sell them?”#like no actually i was showing you because i think its neat and i have pride in myself. can you be proud of me too? just once? please?#like fuck man. it feels so hard sometimes because i make stuff for the love of the game but it would be so nice #to be acknowledged by anyone other than myself #in a way that respects why i made the thing in the first place #ugh whatever #im feeling shit about it all rn and its making it so hard to find motivation to continue working on the stuff im currently making #id like someone other than myself in the mirror to tell me they see me and that they love what ive made #personal #punk #art

Been working on redesigning Raiden

#keese draws #oc art #oc #I’m not sure if I’m quite there yet but I’m making progress I think #I might have to force myself to mess around with drawing some of the other outfits more too tho #the main struggle is that I feel like they would wear a hoodie and shorts but I feel like it might make them stick out too much #which I want to argue kind of works with their character but combined with their color pallet it just becomes a situation where I kinda #feel like one needs to go and I reallyyyyyy don’t want to have to redo either #less because I’m too attached more because my two most hated parts of designing characters is designing outfits and making color palletes #part of me feels that giving them a more natural color pallete could help but at the same time hill and steward both already have the #brown color palletes going on and I don’t want everyone to be browns #maybe the white hair needs to go? but then I feel like meiro will stick out too bad being the only character to use pure whites #idk character design is hard man. this is what happens when you decide to make a story full of adopts a thing you wanna make real one day.#gotta bridge the gap between the designs more thoroughly so it isn’t comically obvious each was designed by a different person #ughhh and the more I look at raiden the more I feel like their silhouette might be the problem do I need to kill the two tails idk mannnnnn #I should probably draw the rest of the main cast to get an idea of what does and doesn’t work for the rest of them maybe #maybe if I tweak all of their designs I can bring them closer to raiden so raiden doesn’t have to change as much idk #steward is the one I want to reference as my standard tho I am very happy with where her design is at rn #maybe I need to lean more into a toy or doll look for raiden? that might help them fit in more #idk How to do that. but it’s a concept.

#life is hell btw.#like sorry I’m being miserable this is a fandom blog lol but like #accepting my brother is alive but I’ll never really get to be with him again has been rough idk #and that’s just the latest thing there’s so much going on right now i don’t even know where to begin #i guess the thing is that with my brother he’s the only person in my family who likes me #like he’s the only one who really cares about me and tells me that and shows me that #no one else really likes me because I’m weird and hard to be around and stuff but my brother loves me #and he’s been struggling for years we both have but he’s had addiction problems and helping him has been hard but he was doing so well #and it’s hard to explain but it gets to a point where you can’t force help on them yknow #so you just have to resort to mourning while they’re still alive #I’m sorry i know that’s evil but there’s only so much i can do and I’ve done it all #I’ve been mourning him for years and now I’m mourning again #and i just feel awful #and i know it’s selfish to think this but my birthday is next week and it’s like he’s the only one who spends the day with me #my family will always have dinner with me and stuff but my brother knows i have no friends and it makes me sad being alone on my birthday #and he’s ALWAYS made an effort to be there on my birthday and spend the day with me no matter what #and now he’s in jail and will be in prison probably for the rest of my life #idk and really this is just one of many catastrophic things going on in my life i just need a break #and my breaks are immersing myself into my books and shows and movies #so thank you everyone for all the work you’ve been producing lately i know ot sounds silly but getting to come home and read your guys fics #and look at all of your art or even just reading your posts takes away so much of my stress and feeling of impending doom and helplessness #idk i just wanted to say I appreciate you all so much #please like if you read this though i can’t really talk about this stuff with anyone i just need to be heard

CREEPED VISUAL NOVEL Link, tutorial, extra art, Q&A, some chatter

The CREEPED Prologue is completely free and browser-ready. Gameplay is about 10 minutes. Please read the "tutorial" and notes before playing!

Follow Y/N and their dog, Max, through their grandparents' farm and a mysterious forest filled with...less than fortunate people!

PLAY HERE; works best on PC

This visual novel is powered by GOOGLE SLIDES! It has 0 programming and was created by one person in a little over a month, so please bear with any "bugs" and clunkiness!

TUTORIAL

>Click using mouse/trackpad >Go slowly to not break game >Do not use arrow or space keys

EXTRA NOTES:

>Works best on PC/Browser, I haven't tested the full game on mobile yet >In general, clicking the PNGs on the textbox (Apple, Teddy Bear, Hatchet, etc) will lead you to the right page >If you land on a page that tells you to "go back," that's when you should click the back-arrow key. If your cursor disappears, it doesn't register the click correctly >I recommend moving your cursor periodically to avoid it disappearing and sending you to the wrong page

EXTRA ART

some WIPS and the original sprite-style i was gonna choose LOOOOOOOL

Q&A

Q: Is this an x reader? A: This is a reader-insert, but it's not romantic and I try to keep it as neutral and unidentifiable as possible! Q: What's the plot? A: GENERALLY AND WITHOUT SPOILERS, your dog gets you into trouble and you're just looking to help him!

Q: Who is in the prologue? A: Tim, Brian, Toby, and Kate! More will be added in future chapters.

Q: When will future chapters be posted? A: Not sure! This took me about a month to do, and half was spent over winter break. I will try to get chapter 1 posted before summer, but I am a full-time student, employed, have extracurriculars, etc etc

ok thats all i only remember 4 questions feel free to ask more LMAO

CHATTER(because you know i can talk forever)

ok i just wanted to be able to talk about how the process was with this and how i feel about the results and whatnot...

ive been wanting to make a google slides visual novel since i was like 13 LOL it hit the point where i was repeatedly told i should just learn to code but i was like NOOOOO ITS GOTTA BE GOOGLE SLIDESSSS which is totally stupid but hey. i think that gives it some sort of simple charm that reminds me of being 16 and doing little projects in my room LOL i like working with the easiest tools . my bad

anyway. im just very happy LOL. it's not perfect but i feel like i came full circle in a sense?!?! i've been into creepypasta since i was 9 and it comforted me when things were really hard, and when i was 18 i was going through a really hard time and got back into creepypasta as a way to distract myself. i've always had a habit of throwing myself into fiction for escapism when things suuucked.

i'm 20 now but i've met SO many amazing people, had so many fun awesome exciting projects with friends, created tons of stuff im proud of, felt more motivated to create since i was like 13, have been inspired by so many amazing artists/authors on here, etc. just so so so lucky to find community in such a tight-knit cute fandom that thrives off of creativity and playing around! i hope i can keep the momentum and make a couple more chapters this year, but im kinda busy with school and work...LOL . i'm just excited to have this posted so i can have more discussion about it T_T

anyway thank you if you read this far and thank you if you played etc etc yaahhhhhh omg ok BYE THIS IS SO EMBARRASSING im just so grateful to be in this fandom

any philosophy on surviving fascism? or building local power?

I'm going to start by staying alive, and then I'm going to look around my local community and see what charities are working in the area that I might be able to help out with. I'm gonna give more money to the homeless. I'm probably going to speak less and listen more, for a while. I'm going to pay even closer attention to grocery store prices. I'm going to make art, even if it's not as big and grandiose as I would like to, and try to dedicate myself to the creative principles of it rather than maximising career success. I'm going to comfort my friends who are afraid, and accept their comfort for all the things I'd hoped to do that I might not get to anymore. I'm going to go to the gym because it's good for me, even though a healthy future seems hard to imagine. I'm going to remember that I'm still young. I'm going to remember there are younger people who look up to me. I'm going to listen to older people who didn't get everything they wanted and still turned out happy. I'm going to read.

And I'm going to remember that even if every trans person on Earth were rounded up and killed tomorrow, a million more would be born the next day.
