2006 | 2016 | 2026 Keep at it I guess! Also yes this is indeed gay Cardcaptor Sakura fanart because I've always been really really cool.

Three versions of the same illustrations - the first drawn in 2006, the second in 2016 and the third in 2026. The drawing depicts the characters Touya and Yukito from CardCaptor Sakura in a romantic pose. The difference in style and quality between the illustrations is significant.

Heads up for authors and comic artists that email scams have been getting a LOT more sophisticated thanks to AI. This email I just got includes actual details about my book, even though there are still some obvious AI tells in my opinion (the subject & the last paragraph especially stand out). 1/2

my wrist is still fractured btw and i regret to inform you every time someone sees my cast and asks how i broke it i get closer to saying oh you know. jerkin' it

one funny thing about having transitioned is that my dad is really supportive and hasn't actually changed the way he talks to me at all, just swapped "daughter" for "son". so he constantly refers to me as his "lovely son" and "beautiful son of mine". i think it's so cute honestly i love it

every time i go to an adult puppet show (which is a lot of times) i always have a small hope that i'll get to see a human fuck a puppet and it never happens because everyone in theater is a coward. apparently

Ras Ein al-Auja, one of the last remaining Bedouin communities in the Jordan Valley in the occupied West Bank, has been completely erased through brutal Israeli settler violence. Ras Ein al-Auja has been ethnically cleansed. (1/3)

i love heated rivalry because now that it's hit the mainstream i can finally find out which of the women in my life have the fujoshi gene

Today marks mine and @lindarrow.bsky.social 's 16th anniversary as friends & creative soulmates! I lucked out with the best possible collaborator. I can't even imagine where I would be today without Lin's friendship & artistic influence. Lin, I love you and I hope we make comics together forever 🩷

one of the positive things about this development though is that i'm finding out just how many of my fellow hive sufferers i hadn't been following on bluesky! very happy to be correcting this now

One of the crazier Hiveworks stories in the bunch. Recommend a read if you'd like an example of just how absurdly bad things got for some people.

Heeeyy, we can finally talk about this! So, I would like to co-sign everything in this open letter. I would also like to tell everyone about a specific grievance that @femonologue.bsky.social and I have with Xellette after the mishandling of our kickstarter. Screencap/receipts in🧵 to follow!
