Today is the Trans Day of Remembrance, and we must celebrate it both to remember the trans siblings that we've lost, and push forward so that we can reach a world where nobody feels like they have no hope left

Entry 79 in "nimi pi musi leko": moli. Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance, and as a U.S.-based artist, I have a lot to remember this year. For my trans connections here, please know that I see you and I'm so happy you're here with us.

without downloading any new pics, describe your gender

Gender is a performance and I missed every rehearsal but the director insists I "just get up there, it'll be fine"
Gender is a performance and I'm the nochijite in the Noh play "Izutsu"
Gender is a performance and I'm that one scene in THE NICE GUYS where Ryan Gosling is in the toilet stall and fumbles with a lit cigarette

Entry 78 in "nimi pi musi leko": jaki. I got really in my head for this one, and it turned into a bit of a hiatus. A fun fact about the glyph for jaki is that it can be any scribble!

Thanks to you all, my remote consult for top surgery was a success, and I'm cleared for next steps. Now I need to raise $1000 for a down payment by Dec 14th to get a surgery date. Once again, with your help, I can get one step closer to reclaiming my mountains ⛰️⛰️

Entry 77 in "nimi pi musi leko": nasa. I think coming up with images for these next few words will be challenging... Today I settled on an optical illusion.

Entry 76 in "nimi pi musi leko": walo. This is the last of the color words! The rest of this page is... Interesting.

Entry 75 in "nimi pi musi leko": pimeja. What do you think of the dithering around on this image and the last? I don't want to use it for shading an object, but I'm experimenting with it for soft outer edges.

Entry 73 in "nimi pi musi leko": laso. Laso can also cover shades of green (like the grass).

Years ago, a subscription drive was what resulted in my epic livetweet of Clavell's "Shogun." Now, I'm doing it again. 100 subs (12 more than what I have now) at buff.ly/R3YnYhq and I will livepost my read of Christopher Nicole's "Lord of the Golden Fan," which was Shogun before Shogun.

Entry 72 in "nimi pi musi leko": jelo. For every color word, look for the triangle! All the color glyphs have a triangle in them.

Entry 71 in "nimi pi musi leko": kule. Welcome to the series's mini-study on color, which will be interesting with my self-imposed restriction to the EMOS16 palette.

Entry 57 in "nimi pi musi leko": noka. ijo Kusanami's foot is shaped more like a shoe than a human foot. This is the word I swapped out for anpa a couple of weeks ago, so stay tuned for the page 6 summary graphic!

Entry 68 in "nimi pi musi leko": lawa. I kind of like this outlining out-of-focus parts style; I think I'll stick with it for the other body parts.

it's time for DOOM JUGGLING!
Ever since the Never Gonna Give You Up in Juggling Lab, people have been asking me to run Doom on Juggling Lab. But where's the fun in that? Why run one Doom in Juggling Lab when you could JUGGLE THREE DOOMS AT ONCE?

(You can only control the Doom that's at the top!)

Entry 66 in "nimi pi musi leko": kute. Today's entry took so long because I originally intended this to be a human ear. If you want to know how that went, you may notice that the image is a fox ear, not a human ear!

Entry 65 in "nimi pi musi leko": seme. Today's entry gets an asterisk because it can be any question; seme stands in for any word the speaker has a question about. A quick note that I'm going on break until mid-next week for travel again. See you then!
