Hi I'm Maddie! I make cartoons, I collect toys, I got a corgi! 🏳️‍⚧️ madelinejacobusart.com

Shortly after I started my transition, my mom told me she was initially worried she was "losing her little kid in the pictures," but was happy I was still generally the same person. I assured her I was still who I always was, but immediately went and made this to blow off steam

The way profit maxxing corpo culture has invaded every form of art through algorithms pushing people into daily posting is really weighing on me lately. Efficiency and regularity of making "content" being prized above all else feels so grim, man.

i'm legit almost angry at all the institutions that made people think their dream comic was unproduceable. Everything is produceable baby. The only limiter is how crazy you are

A cool unique trans experience is when you accidentally talk in a deep voice in public and all the kids in the immediate area go mouth agape and stare at you like the end of invasion of the body snatchers

Honestly a big reason I got into guitar again is because I can play alone in my house with headphones and never show anyone. It is the opposite of my comics for me, in that it is 100% for myself and I don’t feel the need to impress anyone with it.
