Yessss.

When I first learned about “dark academia”, it was one of those “ohhhh so this lifelong obsession of mine has a name!” moments.

White collar babydoll dresses (Wednesday Addams dresses) are such an absolute look, and a perfect staple of goth, grunge, and alt girl fashion.

I have a few in this style, and I often draw Claire in these. Just one of my overall favorite looks when done well.

AI freaks literally forcing their plagiarism slop machines down our throats. They know most people don't like their garbage machines so they have to force their slop onto us.

Just announced at NYCC! A new Vertigo series from Grace and I about fandom, obsession... and parasocial chaos :)

the cover for Fanatic, a new series from DC vertigo by Hannah Templer and Grace Ellis. The cover depicts a woman cast half in shadow, looking back over her shoulder in a look of surprise as she is caught holding a shovel and wearing a tattered costume in a wooded area. The colors are in two tones of blue and red

I still often think of the amazing Anne-France Dautheville collection that Claire Waight-Keller did for Chloe in 2016.

Genuine "rent free" in my mind situation.

Just this perfect blend of femme and masc under a paradigm of 70's adventure boho.

Across nearly 100 submissions to our #StopCensoringAbortion survey, we saw systemic over-enforcement, convoluted policies, sudden account bans, and ignored appeals. On Friday, leaders from EFF, Plan C, M+A Hotline, and Women on Web will discuss what’s happening and the future of sharing info online.

A peek at GAME FREAK (Yep, *that* Game Freak!) tips 'zine issue 22 from 1985 where the solution to arcade Time Gal is lovingly and painstakingly illustrated and written out scene-by scene. 💜

A scan of the photocopied zine with an illustration of protag Reikas sat coly with legs crossed and a marker pen held in one hand, with cheeky doodles drawn over the game's villain's face and a piece of paper. "Time Stop!"

A snap of one of the pages, with painstakingly drawn recreations of hte various scenes of the QTE based animated footage gameplay with directional inputs for each of them.

Another snap of inked illustrations of Reika in one scene and line artworks in the other. Directional inputs can be seen below.

Just doing a collection based on this journalists motorcycle journey across Europe and in to Afghanistan was so brilliant, and I love how perfectly her look and vibe were translated in to the pieces.

I love the softness of so much of it. But also the sleek, relaxed, sensual aggression of the leather pieces, jumpsuits, cafe racers, etc.

And the scarves are just perfect.
