slightly warm to the touch take but my entire life I've been looking to be able to talk about life and the way I experience things without translating and approximating to some external framework of normative established meaning, so when I meet fellow neurodivergent people I'm not actually thrilled for the conversation to consist of "I have [name of symptom] how about you"

Me: *shows kid1 a picture of Kate Stewart* Would it be ok if she was your new mommy?
Wife: Hello, sitting right here?

Replying to repliiiies but I'm still in a weird headspace and not writing my stories I'm sorry :(
@subdaydreams
Aw, thank you! The next part of Dark Reveries (and Your Dark Reveries) is already up on Patreon. ;3
@grubbmilk
Yeah, you would not believe how many people are like "I don't mind if she's fat, but not too fat." Like... how subjective. lol
But thank you! I've been having fun drawing them.
And thank you again! lol
I wish I could do more with Fizz, but I have nothing further than the concept of her. :P
@succubus-lair-if
Ahaha! I'm glad someone caught that. lol The horns are also vaguely shaped as '666,' but of course one is backwards.
@vaya-writes
I know I replied to the typo bit, but didn't reply to the rest of the comment. So...
I'm glad the tension still works, even if it's manufactured. As the summary implies, Reveries takes the safety of patrons very seriously, so they tend to hire conscientious employees for the Dark side. ;)

the way people online talk about autism is getting really weird, like do they know that neurotypicals still have interests? that someone being passionate about a hobby doesn't mean they're autistic? you guys know that right

I just think that 'animals are living intelligent creatures that have feelings and deserve to be respected' and 'when done properly farming is beneficial to both people and animals and there's nothing wrong with raising and killing animals for food, clothing, and other products' are concepts that very much can and should coexist

lead balloon (the tumblr post that saved me)
if this comic resonated with you, it would mean the world to me if you donated to this palestinian family's escape fund.
--
no creative notes because this isn't that kind of comic.
I know I don’t owe any of you anything but I still felt compelled to write about my long term absence. And I feel far enough away from the dangerous spot I was in to be able to make this comic. I have a therapist now, and she agreed that making this could be a very cathartic gesture, and the start of properly leaving these thoughts behind me. I am still, at seemingly random times, blindsided by fleeting desires to kill myself. They’re always passing urges, but it’s disarming, and uncomfortable. I worry sometimes that my brain’s spent so long thinking only about suicide that it’s forgotten how to think about anything else. Like, now that I've opened that door for myself, I'll never be able to fully shut it again. But I’m trying my best to encourage my mind in other directions. We'll see how that goes.
I am still donating all proceeds from my store to Palestinian causes. So far, I've donated over $15K, not including donations coming from my own pocket or the fundraising streams which jointly raised around $10K. In the time since I made my initial post about where this money would be going, the focus has shifted from aid organisations to directly donating to escape funds.
If you'd like to do the same, you can look at Operation Olive Branch, which hosts hundreds of Palestinian escape funds or donate to Safebow, which has helped facilitate the safe crossing and securing of important medical procedures for over 150 at-risk palestinians since the beginning of the genocide.
