And by write it I mean make a fully colored and realized comic about it... I don't have time for that thooooo

Since the holiday toy drive post is circulating again, I figured this would also be helpful! Food insecurity is such a massive problem in America, in general, and if you have the means to help feed others, I think you should take that opportunity. Here are some other tips:

1. If you’re planning on donating items from your own pantry, please check the expiration dates on the packaging. Think of your donations as gifts to bestow, not castoffs to be rid of. It’s awful to think of people feeling like they got scraps someone else just didn’t want. Everyone deserves dignity with their meals.

2. If you’d rather give money to a food bank, that’s also great since they buy food in bulk and know what items are most wanted/needed!

3. Not everyone has access to appliances like stoves or microwaves or hot plates so if you can donate items that don’t need to be heated up, that would also be greatly appreciated!

Hey nerds,

Are you a fan of animation? Are you an artist that works in the animation industry (or at least wants to… one of these days)? Do you just enjoy silly cartoons? Or maybe you don’t care about cartoons, but you believe strongly in workers rights and fair wages!

Well the people who make your favorite cartoons, anime, and animated shows and movies are fighting for the future of this industry. We are facing a lot of challenges right now job creep, low wages, the ever looming threat of artists being replaced by AI to create worse animation for the sake of generating content to make lots of money for very rich people while real human artists live paycheck to paycheck and struggle to pay rent and feed their families…

But you can help! By signing this petition to show your support for animation workers in the US

Comic update: so as of now chapter 1 is almost done! (I may have gone a little crazy yesterday after the news ;;;) SO! Here's what's gonna happen.

Tint Tone and Shade will start to be posted January of next year. I want to make a bigger back log and get as far as I can into chapter 2 before I start posting and that chapter has A LOT going on in it that the sooner I get to it the better.

In the meantime I will be posting doodles and stuff of the cast so look out for those! Also I think technically as of January it will have been a full year of me working on this comic so... that's neat but also (holy shit it's been a year already)

See you all soon with more stuff!

Holy shit the Gaza bots in my inbox just started to swarm how the fuck do I make them LEAVE ME ALONE!!!

In case you don't know: bots that claim to be asking for support for Gaza are scams. If you want to help Gaza, please use vetted sources/fundraisers. Anyone who reaches out to you directly are not people who actually need help.

But ye if you guys wanna spam my inbox with art, comic, animation, or general asks unrelated to Gaza I would appreciate it!!! (This is getting ridiculous)

Harris now begins her defeat speech. Most expect it to lose in some states due to the Biden administration's support for Israel and its promise to stand by Gaza. Unfortunately, Trump will also not stand with Gaza, and since his term, he has declared Jerusalem the capital of Israel.Please support Gaza because in reality there is no administration or president who stands by the oppressed people of Gaza. Only free peoples stand by them. In this difficult time, I call on you to support my oppressed family in Gaza.

Please stand by my family from famine and devastating war 👈👈

To support my family from here 👈👈

A sim getting close to finishing chapter 1 of TTS I'm realizing it miiight be smart of me to at least get a bit further of a backlog.

I'm impatient by nature cause I want people to read my stories but I think it would be smart for me to get at least part way into chapter 2 before I post anything so idk when chapter 1 will even be out.

My plan for posting was to post a page every other week to give me more time to work on pages and I plan to stick with that, so chapter 1 might not even be out until late January at this rate which I think is okay with me. I want to be consistent and this is my first big comic so I want to do it right~

Thanks for the support everyone, and I can't wait for you all to read Ombra journey once you finally can~

thought this would be good to share.

I'm not gonna say much about politics on this account but just know this: I don't support trump. he is a foul man who never deserved to be in any position of power yet here he is.

So my fellow LGBT+ community members, my supporters of POC and woman, my defenders of Jews and Gaza citizens alike, don't stop fighting. We might not be able to affect anything big but we can start small. get involved with your communities, help make safe spaces, and talk to one another as much as you can.

because so many people out there still think we don't have a right to choose, to live, to express our cultures and share our stories just because we are all seen as minorities.

I know I personally can't do much but I plan to do as much as I can regardless. Progress can't be stopped, they can slow us down but not for long.

we will get our freedom, its only a matter of time~

Reminder that if Trump loses, he’s gone once and for all. He will have lost twice in a row. His initial win seemingly a fluke. He will be in his 80s next time he wants to campaign. Now two presidential rounds out. He is running on fumes atp. His sentencing is pretty soon. One last blow is really just what we need to banish him once and for all.

Friendly reminder that almost half of the states in the U.S. have same day registration! This means you can go to the polling center for your location, register there, and cast your vote same day. So if you are over 18, are a U.S. citizen, and live in one of the states listed below, it is not too late to register and vote! I’m going to put notes for some of the states where voting is extra important due to the political climate of the state.

California

Colorado

Connecticut

D.C.

Hawaii

Idaho

Illinois

Iowa - recent polls indicate state could flip from red to blue

Maine

Maryland

Michigan

Minnesota

Montana

Nevada

New Hampshire

New Mexico

New York

North Carolina - swing state! Could go red or blue

North Dakota - voter registration not required

Utah

Vermont

Virginia

Washington

Wisconsin - swing state! Could go red or blue

Wyoming

You can go here for more info on voter registration
