Square image showing Mikael and JP from the cover of the comic Dead City kneeling down next to one another, both with worried expressions as a dark foreboding background looms behind them. The background is the city skyline of Toronto and the lights of the buildings slowly turn into eyes. Text: Dead City Comic page, in black lines and coloured in shades of green. Panel one, Jey slams their hands down on a desk. Jey dialogue: No! Enough is enough! Panel two, Jey with their arms up in a determined pose. Jey dialogue: I've decided. Panel three, Jey running happily through a portal where on the left they are fully clothed with forms and papers flying around them. On the right they're exiting the portal with top surgery bandages on their chest, with masculine aligning clothing flying around them. Jey dialogue: This is my body for the rest of my life, so instead of self-loathing, I'm going to take action in the form of transforming my body to suit my needs instead of forcing myself to love things I don't love. Comic page, black lines and coloured in shades of dark pinks. Title: Secret Snacking. Panel one, Darumaka from behind with the sound effect "munch" and "crunch" around her. Panel two, a loud speech bubble on the left of the panel and a surprised Darumaka from the side on the right of the panel. Her hands are up near her mouth. Her mouth is full. Daven dialogue: Maka! Panel three, Darumaka with her mouth full is running away from Daven in the background. He's yelling after her. Daven dialogue: What's in your mouth?! Comic page, with black lines and minimalist colouring. Panel one, Lupin is in a kitchen whisking some liquid in a glass bowl. He's wearing a pink Santa hat and singing. Lupin dialogue: Oh quand j'entends sonner au ciel. Panel two, Lupin is using a ladle to pour the liquid into three tall glasses. Panel three, in a living room Lupin is handing Goemon one of the three glasses. Lupin is holding one for himself and Jigen has one as well, but is reaching off panel for something. Goemon dialogue: What is this? Lupin dialogue: Eggnog! Panel four, similar panel as to panel three but Goemon is looking concerned at his glass, Lupin is pointing to Jigen angrily, and Jigen is pouring whisky into his own glass. Goemon dialogue: Egg... as a drink. Lupin dialogue: Jigen! There's already run in it!

"Bigenital Revolution," the book I wrote + @jpawlik.com drew, about the new form of gender affirming surgery I was among the first to get, was published by @microcosm.bsky.social in March!

It is my hopeful message in a bottle I'm floating out to the world.

Secret Santa gift for @mystsaphyr.me this year! My spouse gave me the idea for the piece, and I'm real pleased with how it turned out.
Two panel comic done in dark maroon lineart with halftones. Panel one shows Lupin tinkering with a small machine with tools and blueprints strewn about. Panel two shows Zenigata in a similar pose but he's working on a net device. A speech bubble is above both of them in the middle of the two panels that reads "Oh, he's going to hate this." With "Happy Holidays Myst" at the very top left in the panel gutters.

Lupin: Fujiko you've been naughty this year so I'll just be replacing these jewels. Black and white drawing with halftones. Text: Day 10 Warming Up Lupin and Jigen are snuggled up under a blanket together. Jigen has nodded off to sleep and Lupin is looking at him with a smile and a slight blush on his cheeks. Black and white drawing with halftones. Text: Day 11 Decorating A miniature pine tree is being decorated by four hands coming in from all sides. Lupin is wrapping a pearl necklace around it. Fujiko is putting a big diamond at the top. Jigen has attached wire to a bullet to include. And Goemon is fastening a Japanese fabric charm. Black and white drawing with halftones. Text: Day 13 Traditions Goemon is in the middle of eating his King Cake and a little baby figurine is poking out. Goemon looks startled. Goemon: There's... a baby in my dessert? Lupin, in the background, rushes in with a manic expression while holding a crown for Goemon. King's Cake is a common winter tradition for French folks, I recommend reading into it!

Black and white drawing with halftones, text reads "Day 5: Snowed In" We can see Jigen, Goemon and Lupin from inside a window, the three of them are each holding up a drink and laughing.

Black and white drawing with halftones, text reads "Day 6: Christmas Train" Lupin and Jigen gasp as they sit inside a train car and see Zenigata upside down and pressed up against the train's window. It's snowing heavily outside. How did Zenigata even get there?!

Fujiko and Jigen are laughing in the background as Goemon looks rather proud of himself. He can be funny too!

What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

@arythusa.bsky.social waited two years after coming out as nonbinary before starting on testosterone because they wanted to look more like a soft anime prince boi than a manly lumberjack. Fortunately, they found a compromise by going on a low-dose of HRT!
www.ohjoysextoy.com/low-dose-hrt...
Low-Dose HRT and You by Sage Cotugno published 2025-12-16 on https://www.ohjoysextoy.com/low-dose-hrt-and-you-sage-cotugno Today’s comic is drawn by Sage Cotugno, an Asian American trans mask non-binary person, with pronouns They/Them, who is depicted as both free and post-HRT in the comic. The comic is drawn with clean, sharp lines and colored in blues and oranges that make the whole thing pop. Narration - I came out as a non-binary in 2019, but didn’t start HRT (hormone Replacement Therapy) until two years later We see a younger sage having their hair buzzed from behind. They’re thinking to themselves: Damn, my head looks like a giant egg. Next, we're shown two stereotype depictions of different men. One is a lumberjack with a big, giant ax, bushy beard, and huge chest. The other is a elf like woodland creature elegantly holding a hand to their head to dramatic effect with sparkles around them.The Lumberjack has these notes floatinga round them:- Huge Beard and muscles- 24/7 flannel lifestyle- Part-time paper towel model, full-time American hero The Elf-man has these notes:- Cat-ears somehow??- Deadly cheekbones- Heir to the moon kingdom. Narration - I hesitated in part because I had never wanted to look like a traditionally masculine man. I pictured myself as more of a soft, anime prince boy. Sage shows themselves at the Gender Buffet, picking up different bits of food and adding it to their plate Narration - I wished I could pick and choose which masculine traits I would end up with… Suddenly, a huge wave with the label T-Gel Tsunami comes crashing down onto Sage Narration - But I knew from my research that it was more of an all-or-nothing kind of deal. Page 2 We see a small sage sitting on top of the hill looking out at the clouds, Lion King style, forming in the clouds themselves, is the Elfish masculine trope that Sage craves. Narration - I began to suspect my soft boy dreams were some quixiotic fantasy like wanting to be a dinosaur or a wizard. Surely real trans people don’t want things like that! A doctor springs out of the page, with their hand in the air Narration- But then my doctor said... Doctor- Actually, lots of them do! In this next panel, we see a giant banner with the word low-dose HRT on top of it. It is adorned with needle and pill visualizations. Behind it is the doctor showing off the banner while Sage looks on, and imagines a bull’s-eye of hitting the perfect place for their trans-masc dreams. Doctor- There's two roots trans folk often take: They either want to go 'all the way' towards one end of the binar, or land somewhere in the middle. People in the secondary category often choose… Sage interrupts- Gasp! So it’s like a magical soft boy pill?? Doctor - well, not exactly… A pink ribbon unfurls across the bottom of the page stating, "Read the rest on Oh Joy Sex Toy .com"
