This definitely felt similar to my experience growing up. I felt like I was constantly playing a role for everyone else. I still hit points where I feel angry I wasn't allow to be my authentic self growing up

The local crows found the joy of setting off a random car with whatever they have on hand. It's day 2 of this and it's now becoming every hour they do this

people who either don’t remember or didn’t learn from the aids crisis are about to find out exactly how far the united states government will go to murder ostracize & oppress gay & trans people

Remembering how last year I had quite a few people tell me how they would never go after trans affirming care for adults in the US and that the trans community was overreacting. Well it's finally here. I'm so pissed about all my friends and family are going to lose their needed care

Probably should have read the plot of The Rooftop by Fernanda Trías instead of just skim it. I'm now just sitting here repeatedly processing what I've been reading for the last hour.

Lately it's been difficult trying to go back to my usual routine with how much everything is up in the air (try to move is stressing me out especially). I feel unmotivated to work on a lot of my art projects I have going (my monster painting is the only one I work on daily now).

I'm liking where this piece is going. I'm debating on painting a sculpture in this. #art #workinginprogress #digitalart #cat #transartist #queerartist #heavypaint

Currently working digitally today. I've been enjoying working in Heavypaint as of lately. I originally was making a smaller piece before realizing I wanted to add more to the scene. #art #digitalart #workinprogress #transartist #queerartist

One of the benefits of me being trans is I didn't get named John at birth (it feels kinda cursed in my family)

Sometimes I wish there was a therapist that specialized in working with artists and illustrators. There's some very specific stuff that intertwines with art, belief, identity and soul... that would be pointless to discuss with a therapist that doesn't get all those different components.

Eventually my obsessions either circle back or borrow from past obsessions in some way

For the longest time I use to try to stick to more realism. Between seeing Alexis Fraser (Lipstick Lex)'s work at the time, and having an art professor who pushed us to try get out of our comfortable zone with experimenting, I ended up enjoying experimenting with so many different mediums...
