this thread sounds a lot like im sucking my own dick about it lmao but really it just is a strange feeling to contend with-- doing something solely for the purpose of serving your community, and then seeing the effect it creates. the joy. and you go "ohhh right ok so. this is what im here for."

i had a woman, back in santa cruz, take one look at me and tell me my "aura is beautiful" and that im "very important." this happened TWICE (i dont think she remembered me the second time, and was just as taken aback as the first time). i think about that often in relation to the work im doing here

i didn't *need* to revise this design, much less construct a tutorial for it. i had surgery three years ago. the only tangible benefit i get from this is the attention gained from the video doing well. and yet if i think about it a little more abstractly i see the safe queer space i create

there is a very unique kind of euphoria to altruism, unlike anything else i've ever known. like it feels almost cosmic in nature. it's so weird.

im shipping off a binder bodice, a test piece for the design, to someone i'll never meet, and feeling the most pointed but most ineffable sense of purpose

this is a full tutorial on how to draft a pattern for a "binder bodice," as i call it, which works not by compression but by building out a smoother shape. the purpose is to allow for longer and more frequent wear than compression binders without the saftey risks!!

new angle on the clown4clown actually: fool4bard

a pencil sketch of a jester holding a bard lightly by the chin. the bard squints and says "and you're certain of this." the jester gives him a smile that's just a little bit unhinged and says "do i speak words of which i am not certain?"

i always am so envious of the Fantasy Photoshoot Girlies i need to find the high-level-production group shoot vibe SOMEWHERE and inject it straight into my veins

just walked past the bathroom in time to see my cat lamp light up, untouched, with the brief little run-through of colors that it does when it's plugged in to charge, and after the initial "oh i dont care for that at all" scare im mostly just like "can yall stop with that shit"

perhaps whenever i start hyperfixating on something so bad it overrides everything else in importance and starts to affect my ability to actually function i shall simply refer to it as being seized by the Thrall, which makes it sound infinitely cooler and more like a curse
