I never posted the 2023 Halloween costumes? Oh dear [ #KittyCorner ]
Kit Devlin dressed up as a noir detective and Sawyer Dearheart dressed up as the opposing counterpart femme fatale. Kit Devlin dressed up as a (disgruntled) devil in fuzzy red onesie pajamas and Sawyer Dearheart dressed up as an angel with a bit of blood splashed on the hem of his robes.

favorite sketches [ #KittyCorner / #oc ]
Two sketches of a woman with long straight hair and bangs holding a baseball bat. The first one is a rough sketch; the woman has no facial features, and she is wearing a zip-up sweatshirt over a loose t-shirt, with jeans and sneakers. She is wound up to swing the baseball bat. The second sketch is shaded a dark grey-blue, with the woman's eye standing out in bright white. She is holding the baseball bat way up over her head, as if about to bring it directly down. She is wearing a pullover hoodie and cargo pants. Two black and white sketches of a woman with straight hair, bangs, and freckles. In the first one, she is crying- it's an ugly cry, with her eyes squeezed shut, her face blotchy, and snot coming out of her nose. She has one fist up to her face to scrub away tears. In the second one, it appears she's been knocked down, her head tilted back and blood spattered out of her nose and mouth, and her hair a mess on the ground. She has a band-aid over her nose, but that seems to have done very little damage control over all. A black and white sketch of a man dipping a woman in his arms. The man has wavy hair, and a white dress shirt rolled up to the elbows. The arm that is visible is supporting the woman's neck as her head falls back to look upside-down at the viewer. The woman's hair is long, straight, and choppily cut; she is holding a scalpel in one hand that hangs loosely to the floor. Her other arm is gently caught at the wrist by the man's hand. She has bandages on one arm, and what appears to be a few cuts on the other shoulder. The man is looking down at the woman with care, and she is looking at the viewer with an expression of fear. A black and white sketch of a man and a woman. The man has dark, wavy hair, is wearing a nice jacket with lapels over a button up shirt with a tie, and gloves. He has one hand resting on the back of the woman's shoulder and is leaning in mischievously as if he's telling her a secret. The woman has mid-length oddly cut straight hair and uneven bangs, and she is wearing an unbuttoned denim jacket over a shirt. She is holding a flashlight in one hand, and her expression looks as if she's been forced to endure some greatly exasperating ordeal for the past several hours. It's highly probable that this is due to whatever the man might be leaning in to tell her.

the story of my hand-razored undercut, which i kept well into the late 90s, might be of interest. 🧵

When i was an art student in Toronto in the 80s, i went to pricey hair salons a few times; but after my brother started working at CITY/MuchMusic I started going to his barber, kittycorner on Queen W

the undercut was great because i could have a non-threatening normie hairstyle by day, & then by night tie it up and go mosh my face off (sometimes literally, since my eye sockets are at the height of most other people's elbows)

more of her, sketches old and new [ #KittyCorner / #oc ]
Sketch of a woman, Kit Devlin, staring directly at the viewer. She is angry, her teeth are bared, and she is wiping away the blood dripping from her nose. A sketch of Kit snarling angrily at something out of view. She is in a tank top, and looks thin and bony. There are faint scars on her arms. Two sketches of Kit Devlin. In the first, she stands with her back to wind, and it blows her hair so it hides her face. In the second, she is standing next to a ghost, which has created an arm shaped blob off of itself so it can attempt to hold her hand. Two sketches of Kit Devlin. In the first, she is sitting down and looking frustrated, holding up her head with one hand with her elbows resting on her knees. In the second, she is sitting slumped back in a well-worn armchair. She dangles a cigarette in one hand and is grimacing.

A year ago today a kid in a Burger Fi t-shirt in a dark gray challenger was kittycorner from me at the pump and he goes "Nice wanna race?" and my dumb ass said "Ha! Sure if I can go get my good one first!" and he went "OK!" and then paused a couple seconds and said "this is my only one." (...)

Come here often? 🥀 [ #KittyCorner / #ocs ]
Black and white drawing of a man in formal wear who is leaning on the lid of a casket; he holding a bouquet of dark roses. There is a woman in suspenders and dress pants inside the casket- she appears to be in the middle of trying to climb out, and has a leg slung out over one side with one arm wedging the lid open. She is looking up at the man leaning on the lid with frustration; he, on the other hand, is smiling serenely at her. There are bouquets and vases of flowers surrounding the casket, most of which consist of white roses and lilies. The decorative carving on the casket is abstracted ghosts and headstones. The entire scene is placed in front of a large chapel window and bathed in weak sunlight.

Cupid's baseball bat 💘 [ #KittyCorner ]
Old fashioned style Valentine's day card that reads "You make my head spin valentine!" Sawyer Dearheart is getting hit on the head with a baseball bad by Kit Devlin; little hearts come out from where he is hit. Kit is looking innocently up to the sky and has little cupid wings coming off of her back. The edges are bordered in lace that is stained with something that looks suspiciously like blood. It is addressed to "Kitty" from "Sawyer" in stylized cursive writing.

duo sketches [ #KittyCorner / #oc ]
Sketch of a woman and a man, Kit Devlin and Sawyer Dearheart. Sawyer is leaning in as if to kiss Kit on the cheek or whisper something in her ear, and a shadow falls across his eyes. Kit's eyes are closed, her brow slightly puckered, and the bags under her eyes are so dark they look like bruises. A sketch of Kit and Sawyer. Sawyer has his eyes closed and his head leaned back, expecting a kiss. Kit hovers close over him, one hand clutching his jacket, her mouth parted slightly to give him what he's waiting for. Two sketches of Sawyer Dearheart. In the first sketch, he is holding a coffee cup in one hand and holding up a bath towel around his waist, clearly fresh out of the shower. He is a fat man, with a rosy blush dusting his shoulders and cheeks, and he has a small smile on his face. In the second sketch, he is wearing pajamas; boxer shorts and a university style t-shirt that reads "Hohns Jopkins." He is yawning sleepily. A two panel comic sketch of Kit and Sawyer. In the first panel, Kit laughs and Sawyer looks askance at her in surprise. In the second panel, her laughter continues and Sawyer stares at her more intently, and with awe- he is blushing slightly now.

Yeah I got Grand Rapids, Detroit, and
... Spokane?? It said Spokane Washington because I say "kittycorner", but I've only ever lived in northern Michigan and only ever heard kittycorner

Yes. Kittycorner is diagonally across the street.
Cattywampus is situation all f’d up. Thank you for the distinction. But I did have an upper midwest intern once who insisted it was the exact. same. thing.

But it reminds me of the (ahem) NYT dialect quiz.

most unexpected result of my trip to my hometown for mom's memorial: the girl who lived kittycorner from us growing up and was my best friend until middle school apparently remembers me with great fondness and made a push to reconnect. she teaches autistic kids and makes glass art for fun. amazing!

Hello #MeetTheWebcomic!

If you like ghosts, mysteries, the mundane and ever present grief that comes with living, and a dash of the least healthy romance you've ever seen, then my comic might be for you!

#KittyCorner is my passion project that updates sporadically (a.k.a. whenever I can) ♥️

I think because it was at a corner, it mighgt have been described as kittycorner to something else, and kids just started calling it "the kittycorner". Probably a hyper-local usage.

Kittycorner, growing up in Alaska with some summers in WI. Although I don't know that I really heard it used til I was in college in WI.

Sorry, that sort of answers the question kittycorner to it lol.

I never really had to embrace my tastes, I just had to get over being perceived by people who would've never liked me to begin with. And that's a forever process in all parts of life.

Meet me at the smokeshop.

No, the smokeshop two doors down from the corporate smokeshop. Across the street from the old smokeshop and the lousy smokeshop nextdoor. Down the street from the good smokeshop and the bad smokeshop that's kittycorner to it. Used to be a tanning salon?

Yeah that one...
