Sometimes you just need to paint roses in the scheme of the Bi flag. Not sorry

Had the lovely opportunity to draw this logo for the brand Dogwood House LLC! As always, a pleasure working with the owner of this brand and I’m glad I was able to bring her vision to light.

When girls do the thing where they wear open button ups but tuck them in so that you can see just enough cleavage so that their whole titty isn't out, but you kinda wish it was.

Like this:

Good shit. Top tier shit. High quality shit.

Social skills: noticing when repetition is communication

So there’s this dynamic:

Autistic person: The door is open!

Other person: I *know* that. It’s hot in here.

Autistic person: The door is open!

Other person: I already explained to you that it’s hot in here!

Autistic person: The door is open!

Other person: Why do you have to repeat things all the time?!

Often when this happens, what’s really going on is that the autistic person is trying to communicate something, and they’re not being understood. The other person things that they are understanding and responding, and that the autistic person is just repeating the same thing over and over either for no reason or because they are being stubborn and inflexible and obnoxious and pushy.

When what’s really happening is that the autistic person is not being understood, and they are communicating using the words they have. There’s a NT social expectation that if people aren’t being understood, they should change their words and explain things differently. Sometimes autistic people aren’t capable of doing this without help.

So, if this is happening, assume it’s communication and try to figure out what’s being communicated. If you’re the one with more words, and you want the communication to happen in words, then you have to provide words that make communication possible. For example:

Other person: Do you want the door to be closed, or are you saying something else?

Autistic person: Something else

Other person: Do you want to show me something outside, or something else?

Autistic person: Something else

Other person: Are you worried about something that might happen, or something else?

Autistic person: Worried

Other person: Are you worried that something will come in, or that something will go out?

Autistic person: Baby

Other person: She’s in her crib, and the baby gate is up. Is that ok, or is there still a problem?

Autistic person: ok

“Our relationship has been a little rocky of late, so we were thinking that maybe adding a third person would be better!” So what you’re telling me is your relationship is stressful and a mess and you want to drag some innocent person into the middle of it, no thanks.

Geralt meets Jaskier and is like *sniff sniff* ‘yeah this guy’s part elf, I’m not going to comment on this because it’s a very personal thing to bring up in mixed company and also none of my business’ & never once questions that Jaskier knows this bcos like, that’s the kind of thing people know about themselves, right? and it’s a touchy sort of subject so it’s understandable that Jaskier doesn’t really talk about it, w/e

& then years later Yennefer comments on how improbably youthful Jaskier is and Geralt’s like ‘yeah he’s part elf’ (cause like, we’re all ambiguously-human friends here, nbd)

but Jaskier is like ‘what the fuck? are you talking about?? no I’m not???’ and Geralt is like ‘…..fuck.’

Meet the Cover Artist

Meet the Cover Artist

From the Kickstarter fundraising campaign for Trajelon: The Way of the Falling Star Book 2, Tuesday February 18th 2020:

As we get into this campaign, I want to be sure to talk about my cover artist, because he has given us some truly gorgeous covers. (Yes, that is a hint that I’ve already seen what he’s working on for Trajelon. I hope you’ll love it because I know I do.)

I first met Scott Baucan …

If you like to support local authors please share this kickstarter around! My mother-in-law is an author built from the ground up and self published her first book last year in 2019 and with success was able to publish it!

Now she's back at it and publishing her second book of the series and I'm so excited to find what's in store for her characters this time. Her work has been likened to that of a Tolkien like fantasy with a wide range of diverse characters and a thrilling plot.

Share this around so it gets the attention it deserves!

This is horrifying and way more people should be caring about this right now. Different cultures have just as much validity as ours and should be treated with respect, not blatant insult of the highest order! Take the time to care about other people for fucks sake!!

i wish everything was quieter and softer and less often
