Glass & Groundwork quote- “He’s a good kid,” Jasper said. My mouth formed into a proud smile. “He is.” “All the kids are. You’ve done a really great job with them.” “All I did was give them a safe space to allow them room to grow.” “That’s really understating it, but even then, it’s enough. I always felt like a dandelion trying to break through the crack of a sidewalk, trying to find whatever nourishment I could in a cold world. What might have happened if I’d been allowed to grow free? Free, and wild, and unhindered?” Reaching over, I grabbed his hand. “We can’t know the what-if, but you managed anyway. You found your own strength, and you pushed through that crack against all odds. You did that, Jasper.”

🥞FREE SINGLE DAD ROMANCE

Pies & Promises is a low angst single dad romance with a stay at home dad of young kids who makes and sells pies at the farmers market and the diner owner who falls for his pies and his family.

mybook.to/piesandpromi...

#mmromance #freebooks #singledadromance
Quote from Pies & Promises that reads- “Are you my dad’s boyfriend?” Shifting back in my seat, I looked at Parker. “Um, well, I’m not really sure. Would it be okay if I was?” Parker tilted his head. “Sure. He’s pancakesicle.” “He’s what?!” I pinched my brows together trying to figure out what he meant. I could hear Jason snickering beside me. “Dad can have a boyfriend, girlfriend, or theyfriend.” Jason let out a loud laugh. “It’s pansexual, Parker. You were close though, good job.”

You've got the touch! You've got the power!!!

#art
All hand drawn in Clip Studio Paint, drawn by me a mortal human and not some machine garble attempt at life we call "AI art". Could a robot with depression make THIS?? I THINK NOT. Don't waste time on AI for memes and photo edits, grab a friend, grab an art program, fck it, yall ever finger painted before? messy but carnal beastly existence of making art, it's fun~ Here is a fun funky digital doodle graphic design of a green and purple checker board pattern background, hovering is a rainbow glowing cartoon ghost flipping off and saying "fuck AI, support living artists". The fuck AI text is like old style shiny bubble text of the 80s and the rest of the sentence is in glowing flat scratchy type.

For this year's #IDAHOBIT the theme is the power of communities.

In the wake of recent attacks on LGBTQIA+ rights, it is more important than ever to stand together as a community.
