Someone on Reddit figured out where to bulk source all of the sip valve components! This way, I’ll have them to hand out at events or share with other organizers.

I made these simple “respirators required” signs for a friend. Anyone can download the PDF:

Many years of instant portraits. Judging by the hair, the earlier ones are from 2013-2014 and 2017. I guess I could try raising the price???

I made a new Instant Portraits sign for vending at the Lez Night Out takeover of Boyfriend Co-Op tomorrow! To remind you that you can slay your portrait in a mask. If you don’t want that, I can work from an unmasked selfie!

What if a dyke was transmasculine and also had new nose jewelry?

I’m stoked to sell comics and draw portraits at Boyfriend Co-Op from noon to 6pm this Sunday, as part of a Lez Night Out cc lesbian takeover!

See @LezNightOut on instagram for all the deets:

This is a plug for apps like SnapShot Postcard, where you can take a photo and write a message and have it mailed as a printed postcard, for about $1 apiece.

I’m sending my cute cat and garden photos as postcards to my grandparents, and it’s been amazing for our relationship. Highly recommended.

I was so geeked to see @mrmobdick.bsky.social talking drag king history on the latest #KingOfDrag ep, and giving props to Diane Torr!
This show is everything and thankfully it’s free on revry.com.

(Page from my upcoming book QUEER & HOW WE GOT HERE which includes a brief history of drag kinging 🤠)

The resemblance is eerie.

Guess what…I turned in the art for my upcoming book. I’m holding an ultra-advance copy of QUEER & HOW WE GOT HERE.

310 pages of graphic memoir and graphic history. Five years in the making. Cover art TBA. Coming out May 2026 from @littlebrown.bsky.social.

My publisher sent me a 7-page list of every historical/public figure and every term used in QUEER & HOW WE GOT HERE, and it’s getting me so hyped to look at 🥹

🚨GOV HOCHUL IS TRYING TO SNEAK A MASK BAN INTO THE STATE BUDGET 🚨

Mask bans are a new pretense for stop-and-frisk, for criminalizing protest, and for pushing disabled people further out of public life. And they’re a public health nightmare.

IMPORTANT ZINE UPDATE:
One of the only clinical trials supporting nasal sprays as a COVID preventative was recently retracted by the publisher. The other studies have major issues too.

FOR MASK BLOCS and others sharing: the printable PDF at Newlevant.com/covidzine has been updated.

Very stoked on gardening right now

I’m hosting a seed & plant swap at the lovely @comeforever_ mutual aid space on Saturday, 3/22! Just in time to get ready for that last frost in early April 🧑‍🌾
I’ll be giving away blank seed packets, various seeds, compostable seedling pots, spider plant babies, and DIY self-watering containers.
