I feel really shitty asking for help again but my internship that should've lead to a paid position basically didn't have room in their budget to pay me so I'm unemployed again.

I am not needing to make up about 630 USD before the 20th or ill be taken to court. and im currently in the negatives.-

Come February I will begin making toxic age-gap jokes about my elderly gf (I am 3 months younger than her)

I said this and then instantly experienced that season 7 scene where Julian tells Miles he clearly likes him more than Keiko

Why does anyone ship Julian Bashir with Garak when Miles O'Brien is right there

Had a ton of fun making this sequence for Outsider Trading. Check out the show! It's an independent multi-animator series with a ton of amazing artists working on it.

Every time the subject of Homestuck comes up I go on a 40min rant about it to my gf and tbh she should start tranquilizing me

Jamie 🏳️‍⚧️ @atomicrobots.bsky.social · 7d

Haha thank you! I tried to be clever. I just wish collies had easier ears to draw!

Co-star and professional love interest.

Three images of an older, chubby, anthropomorphic yellow rabbit. She is labeled "Janet Delahunt." The first image is of her in a dirty bathrobe carrying a beer bottle and looking nervous. The second is of her in a nice blue dress clutching a purse. Thought bubbles read, "Okay... I haven't seen Bim in over 3 years- so just one drink tonight. Maybe two..." The third drawing is of her back in her bathrobe, drunk, looking at the viewer and saying, "No one ever- *hic* recognizes me." In the lower right corner are two notes that read, "Early 30s" and "Trying to recover she swears."

POV you are 9 years old and trying to be a star

An anthropomorphic lamb character dressed as cupid. He is holding a bow and arrow with angel wings and a halo. He looks toward the camera with a timid smile.

I have a concept that's like Bojack but about a former Disney Channel sitcom star whose agent used to keep him in a dog crate

4 drawings of an anthropomorphic sheep. He is small with heart-shaped markings on his fur. First drawing he is smiling nervously with a thought bubble that reads, "Oh god someone recognizes me. This is why I don't leave my apartment!" The remaining three drawings are of the sheep in various outfits posing neutrally. A label to the left reads, "Avery 'Bim' Pecora." Labels to the right list, "Late 20s" "Cishet" "Learned Helplessness."

An anthropomorphic boarder collie is grabbing a fearful looking anthropomorphic sheep (Bim) by the shoulders. There are speech bubbles that depict the collie saying, "Retired?! But you're still in your prime! You shouldn't waste your talent! In fact, I have an opportunity for ya!"

Text at the top reads, "20 years ago..." The boarder collie is younger, and standing next to a child sheep. The sheep looks nervous and reserved. The collie is speaking to someone offscreen and saying, "He's just a little shy." Meanwhile, the sheep is thinking of the collie with a threatening expression. In his thoughts, the collie is saying, "If you fuck up another audition- I'm sending you to an Uggs factory!"

Rae the Doe - Mimi's Week of Proposals #1

Read the comic on Comics Kingdom: comicskingdom.com/rae-the-doe

Support the Patreon: patreon.com/raethedoe

Mimi looks really excited. She has heart eyes and is putting her hand to her chin in excitement.
MIMI: Ahhh, I'm so excited! Today's the day!! The day I finally propose to Rae. Hiding the engagement ring in a cupcake was such a cute idea!
We see a diagram showing a gold ring with a green jewel placed inside a pink cupcake.

Rae suddenly looks very nervous. Rae looks happy in front of her. Rae has pink frosting on her face.
RAE: Mimi, that cupcake you left on the counter was delicious. I ate it all in one bite. I think I swallowed something solid, though. Like one of my teeth or something, though. Oh well!

Mimi now looks very worried.
MIMI: Rae, do me a favor and cancel the M.R.I. you have scheduled for tomorrow.

Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth

You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people

Rae the Doe - Copyright Infringement

Rae looks nervous and a little annoyed.
RAE: UGH, I FORGOT I HAVE TO HANG OUT WITH BILL TODAY. I DON'T KNOW WHY, BUT WHEN I SEE HIS FACE, I FEEL LIKE I’M ABOUT TO GET IN TROUBLE FOR COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT.

We see Rae standing in a field with an orange cat wearing a white t-shirt and jeans. This is Bill, who she mentioned before. His face looks oddly similar to Garfield’s.

Bill breaks the silence. Rae looks annoyed.
BILL: WANNA BUY A BOOTLEG MOVIE?

Finally watched I Saw The TV Glow. Which is a movie about being transgender and that's the most important aspect of it.

Sharing with ALT text for those who aren't aware of the ongoing real world implications for trans people in the U.S.

"I'm afraid I could be arrested if I travel to that state..."

r/trans
u/RedRhodes13012⚫ 4h
Seeing people deflate when I explain simple facts of my reality bums me out.
Vent
"No, I can't go on that cruise to Italy with you, because I'm struggling to get a passport that doesn't put me in danger. I'm scared I might have trouble getting home."
"Yes, I'm looking at other job opportunities/leaving my position working at school, which I love so much. It's becoming unsafe for people like me to work with children - I got a death threat the other day."
"Will the doctor/therapist/etc. you're recommending be safe for someone like me?"
"Before I meet your parents, I need to know if they know about me. Will I be safe?"
"I'm afraid I could be arrested if I travel to that state for your wedding and need to use the restroom at the venue, I'm sorry."
Seeing it actually register on people's faces that this is my life- that these policies are real and affect real people they know and love- is a really bitter pill. On one hand, it's sad to have to break such depressing news. And on the other hand, it feels so isolating and infuriating that people who love me apparently have no clue any of this is happening unless I take the time to inform them.
Just needed to get that out. Thanks for listening.

Rae the Doe - Boring Anecdote

Rae is excitedly telling a story to Mimi, who looks neutral.
RAE: I GOT A NEW USB HUB FOR MY LAPTOP, AND IT'S REALLY EXCITING BECAUSE IT ALSO HAS AN HDMI ADAPTER. THAT'S SUPER HELPFUL BECAUSE MY LAPTOP ONLY HAS TWO PORTS AND-

Zoom in on Rae’s eye. She suddenly looks really intense. Her brow is furthered and her eye has a determined expression.
RAE: OH NO. IT ONLY HIT ME HALF-WAY THROUGH THIS ANECDOTE THAT IT'S THE MOST BORING THING ANYONE HAS EVER SAID. I CAN’T SAY "NEVER MIND THIS ISN'T INTERESTING” BECAUSE THAT'LL PUT PRESSURE ON MIMI TO SAY "NO, NO. GO ON!" I NEED TO FIND A WAY OUT...

Rae, sweating and with narrowed eyes, tries and fails to sell a lie.
RAE: I HAVE TO... GO. TO, UH, FAKE MY OWN DEATH. WAIT, NO. I MEAN ACTUALLY DIE. YEAH, THAT'S IT. I'M GONNA GO DIE, AND NOT FLEE TO CANADA.
