Absolutely this - I think a lot of the void-screaming, while reasonable, understandable, justifiable etc doesn't achieve much beyond a bit of catharsis

Boosting an artist, especially if you have a few thousand followers, can legitimately launch a career
You hate GenAI? that’s fantastic I’m with yea but have you bothered to support any artist today as well? All you need to do is share their art and interact with them. Checkout their stores and get others to notice them. If you hate slop you need to make real art flourish otherwise thier is no point.

Excuse the photo quality. I came home from a party last night and found Yona like this…. I’m still impressed that she moved all her decor into that corner before wedging herself in.

Writing morning with my dad! He made us Turkish coffees as we sit and work on our respective projects.

I guess writing runs in the family.

You know what? I don’t talk much on here since I usually never know what to talk about, but I think I’d like to yap about the work & choices that went into that first Sir Callie comic I made (because I put a lot of little details & things into it)!

So, here’s a thread! (0/20)

Fun fact: I’m a dog groomer. One of my coworkers did a big shave down on a dog. We’re all a bit punchy right now from holiday traffic (it starts early for us), so this happened.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, I would have you remember that there are trans people alive who need your action now, not your reflective words later.

Remembering us is not enough.

If you still wear a mask at all, even just when sick or at the hospital or on public transit, THANK YOU!
If you still try to isolate or protect others when you are sick, THANK YOU.
If you still test for COVID when you have any symptoms, THANK YOU.

Excuse the rant:

I’m a dog groomer by day and a writer by night. This morning, ten minutes into my shift, a dog decided to swing around and bite my lip while I was carrying him. (Don’t worry: I didn’t drop him).

Four stitches on the lip later, and I go to the pharmacy to pick up my pain meds and

I started a new book I picked up from a thrift store.

A German Disney Book Club bookmark slipped out of its pages. Love little surprises!

In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.

KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond.

His reply was a doozy.

I see your Harry Potter and raise you The Tapestry series and Brandon Sanderson.
I’ve seen a few folks go for the “if you simply must watch that new Harry Potter show just pirate it” and sorry. No. Just no. Just don’t watch it. At all. Ever. Break free of it. It’s time. You’ll be ok. I promise. I know it mattered to you as a kid. Find new things, it’s healthier. Just move on.
