COOL NEWS: As part of my annual New Year's Day portfolio update, I've re-uploaded EILEEN QUINN. It's now free to read in its entirety, for good this time! http://irisjay.net/index.php/eileen/

my other thing is jackets with the sleeves pushed up, but i won't apologize for that because that's a hot look on anyone

everybody has one thing they accidentally end up putting into way too many of their character designs. after a lot of soul searching and introspection, i think mine is this lazy little flippy hairstyle

gotta add some Extra Muscles around the abs so they don't just look like little advent calendar doors, i guess

also still can't get over how those weird side-ab muscles are only really visible on incredibly shredded people with like zero percent body fat, and yet so many mainstream cartoonists draw the fuck out of them

spoiler alert: no

but also: you tell me about a character whose full title is "Omniversal Majestrix Opal Luna Saturnyne, Her Royal Whyness" and i can't possibly help but care a LITTLE bit

anyways can we pa-LEEZE just get back to talking about who's fucking who in the eighties. i don't actually CARE about the X-Men, i care about the alternate reality version of the comic where it's just about a big gang of queers fucking and fighting and dressing up in hot outfits and occasionally averting total multiversal annihilation or whatever. and also it's independently published so i wouldn't have to feel like shit about consuming a fucking Disney product

like. i get it. you got the guy in charge of the whole ball of wax in front of you for a podcast. i also would try to pour as much bullshit into his head as possible to try and shove the story in a direction i'd find appealing. but that's just not very fun to listen to, friendo

decided to stop listening to the one x-men podcast i was binging for a bit after the host had the chief editor of x-men books on and spent like 90% of the episode just talking his ear off about his own theories about what x should do with y and why wasn't z included??? and it was just like ALL RIGHT ALREADY

LBs: please listen to the discworld pocast that @Balina , @junebug , @BestGirlGrace and i do! if you like Discworld books, it's got really insightful analysis of them from queer and leftist perspectives! and if you DON'T like Discworld books, it's four friends shooting the shit about wizards for an hour and change, so that's still fun

The Help Action, the internet's only D&D stream worth a damn, is starting in just 15 scant minutes at 7pm Pacific! Come and join us as we reach our current module's thrilling climax and start COUNTING DOWN... TO DANGER! (And to some sort of spooky scary spider person.) Still raising money for the Transgender Law Center, btw! http://twitch.tv/thehelpaction

Got my merch from @Mous ‘s TRANS*FORMED Kickstarter today! The book looks DELIGHTFUL in real life— fantastic job, Al! 💙💙💙

*checks watch* well, it's been seventeen years and i live nowhere near the east coast. i think it's time i finally ease off my vendetta against bugs

this really is the year where i get into bugs more, huh

it's like napping, but sleep isn't required. you can just chill. silence has been something i've been savoring pretty often lately

one of my favorite activities: lying down on the couch quietly in the afternoon

it's still annoying to think that i got the wheels in motion on this during quarantine thinking "heyyyy if ever, then now!" but like at this rate i dunno if the surgery is gonna happen before 2022. but like, i waited this long, I Can Wait Longer

EYYYYYY tentatively found a doc who takes my insurance and is gonna be scheduling consultations for June next week, one more thing scratched off my list! now i have to get in contact with my second psychiatrist to get my other letter of approval, and (once I get that consultation appointment on lock) my PCP to reach out to them. getting it DONE
