I'm a Freelance Manga Letterer
I love all things comics, especially woman targeted ones, which made me a crazy ShoJosei collector. Over 2,000 manga and counting
Also a huge bookworm.

I keep an Alexa in the kitchen cause it's usually convenient but now her voice has changed, & chats on excessively. When asked her why she sounds like a little girl, she told me that actually she is genderless.

Spent some time yesterday with my husband hanging up art I’ve had for ages. I think about a year ago I asked @sara.pizza to pick this up at a convention for me. It’s a @yukoart.bsky.social poster print of Laika the dog and it’s huge and I absolutely love it.

Ive listened to Spotify a lot less this year, but I gotta say their musical age is super stupid. First they tell me I’m 70 because I listened to music from the 70s and 80s? Some music is classic, gtfo
