I feel like there’s a specific time that people happen to glance at the clock and that time is different for different people. I always happen to catch the time at 10:03. It’s been that way forever. How about you? Do you attribute any meaning to these little moments of happenstance? I never did 1/2

I’m still here. Still working.
This is a painting I did of my cat Wynni in the can. It’s not perfect, nor is it the perfect subject, but it cracked through the horrendous artist’s block I’ve been dealing with. Gotta oil those pistons somehow.

Visibility is a double-edged sword.
When Laverne Cox was featured on the cover of Time 11 years ago, I was genuinely excited and happy for her and the broader trans community. I was also a little concerned, because, inevitably, more eyes on us comes with greater scrutiny and more (1/?)

This Gaiman stuff is absolutely horrific. He was one of my favorite authors and a one-time literary hero.
This one hurts, and it’s also nothing compared to what others have suffered directly at his hands.
God damn it.
