Hi there gang, now that we have pinned posts, I'm Rake.
I'm a queer, hobbyist artist from the UK.
I love the design trappings of 1970s p*rnochic but without any of the hangups. So if you love comics, disco, fashion & gay stuff then say hello & maybe chuck me a tip? Tysm 🤠

Recommend a new anime, would you guys?
Is Dandaddan as good as the hype?
I really loved Frieren & Apothecary Diaries. Watched Ooku: The Hidden Chambers & My Happy Marriage, both were upsetting but compelling.
So yeah, that kinda vibes? Thanks.

Hey uh
Don’t care what the writer did to your fictional bestie
Death threats are insane and so are you.
Because the character is fake, the person is not.
Calm the fuck down, and move on.
Learn how to offer criticism like a fucking adult.

I think we are long past the point of noting the judiciary is ideologically captured by bigots and extremists
It is genuinely insane to see a judge describe Graham Linehan as a “generally credible witness” in a trial where he claimed Sophia Brooks has been engaged in “trans activism” since 2013 (when she would’ve been 6 years old), then, when challenged, claimed her drivers license lied about her age.

My sole take on Hazbin is that it's not a perfect show, but if you want lore with potential, it's there whereas if you just want the songs to wash over you, it's got em.

I thought I'd share a WIP redraw of an old illustration.
I think rewiring my brain is actually kind of working. It's mostly about repeatedly interrupting demoralizing internal dialogue and incorporating new healthy habits, including encouraging thoughts.
Hope you guys are all doing well.

New trailer for my lesbian vampire zine which breaks down a couple dozen lesbian vampire stories into ten essential themes that repeat through all of them. It's pretty damn long but I wish it were longer! I could do a whole zine about Carmilla, that's for sure. sara-century.square.site

Pepper Ann is an unsung hero for so many of us
This isn't even close to anybody else's replies.
But come on. A skirt over jeans? Cool as shit.

If you're buying gifts for the holidays, maybe consider supporting artists, writers, creators. Gift someone a Patreon, commission an art piece, buy a book, purchase handmade jewelry, etc. Your support means everything.
