Daiane dos Santos, brazilian Gymnastics’ legend, congratulates Jade Barbosa and the national team on their historical Olympic Bronze Medal.

Daiane was one of the most important athletes that paved the way for this medal and I wanted to subtitle this lovely exchange between her and Jade on live television. Interview for SportTv2.

Close up of my favorite drawing from this comic. I love his face here! The chirping dizzy birds was a last minute addition. Below is my thoughts about why I included them:

I saw a video about the visual shorthand we’ve developed that lost its original meaning long ago but we still understand. An example is in cartoons, to show a man has gone bankrupt, he is wearing a barrel with suspenders and no clothing. Or pulling out their pockets and a fly comes out to show they’re broke. Or when someone is hit, chirping birds suddenly appear flying around their head to show they are dazed.

These visuals were developed over decades of cartoon-making and I kind of like them. Adding the chirping birds to my story felt right. It marks my work as rooted in my own western culture, even as I use these beloved characters who hail from Japanese creators.

Eastern comics/manga/manhwa have their own visual language too, also developed over decades or centuries. It can be fascinating to study the differences and how each one came to be. I mean stuff like, when a character is sleeping there’s a bubble coming from their nose. Or when they are aroused, their nose bleeds. Or the hatch marks to show blushing! =^_^=

As artists and storytellers, we can mix and match elements from various visual traditions. We are a blend of the influences we have taken in. I had forgotten about the dizzy chirping birds until I saw that video. I was glad to have remembered them again.

A comic for small headcanons. In the immediate Nanosurge/Void fight, Ven's mind kinda falls back to 'factory reset' type start of mind, operating more on emotions and instinct and impressions, instead of masking and performing and over-analyzing everything.

Ven's mind eventually catches up and recenters itself but the first day or so after was a bit of confusing trip for all involved given Ven was talking in nir own little language and/or Re-Gene.

And the translations~~

Jello : Ortega's nickname.

Listen : One of Vendetta's treasured words, 'given' to Ortega because Vendetta is a sentimental troll at times. It's a bit like 'you're important. you're family. i love you'.

Vendetta : Ven's name, Number One Treasured Word, but also the word ne wholeheartedly associates with safety and sanctuary and shelter. Ne will often repeat it to nemself when ne is trying to feel safe and/or calm down (or, you know, calm down others).

The English words related to tool follow the patriarchal dichotomy of sex-based task assignment: the inside of a house, the female realm, and the outside, male sphere of activity. Housework, tasks performed inside a house, are "women's work," while tasks performed outside are "men's work." This division of labor is meaningful to English speakers even though they may not be conscious of its existence. Men use tools, instruments (with the exception of a few musical instruments), implements, machines, and gizmos outside. Women use utensils, appliances, and gadgets inside. In English, we speak of kitchen utensils, kitchen appliances, and kitchen gadgets—used by women, they are not considered tools. A search of the tools listed in Roget's International Thesaurus (1977) reveals only a few items stereotypically used by women (tweezers, nail file, bread knife, scissors), but numerous names for equipment reserved to the male sphere specifying types of drill, clutch, saw, plane, hammer, and wrench. Recently, though, KitchenAid has begun to advertise one of its mixers as a POWER TOOL, a tactic that blurs the boundary between the two experiential domains. Its actual effect, however, reenforces the barrier. Because women are leaving their interior domain for the male domain of "real" work, the ad imports the [+ male] phrase, power tool, and applies it to the equipment women use in a kitchen. Nothing has to change but the label applied to the objects women use; our "domain" remains the kitchen.

Man, the anthropologists tell us, distinguishes himself from other animals by his use of tools. Any object restricted to male use and ownership is a "tool," whether it's language, a hammer, or a penis. Men speak of their penises as tools, and describe their activity in heterosexual intercourse as "screwing," "nailing," "banging," "reaming," "drilling," and "hammering." So intense is the male obsession with their "tools" and females as containers or holes they penetrate that any two objects suggestive of that description, for example, electrical outlets and plugs, nuts and bolts, will have the metaphor imposed upon them. The essential distinction of PUD [Patriarchal Universe of Discourse] is the one which identifies the FUCKER and the FUCKEE.

Tried to watch the VoD on my lunch but was instead captured by this bit that had too much spook potential! Needed to draw it for

Having a good art class for the first time in my life is such an insane feeling, all the other classes were just my teachers being incredibly mean, not actually teaching anything and making us do nonsensical assignments and now I have a teacher that actually takes note of the kind of art I’m into and gives me assignments based on things I enjoy and can improve? I made an oil painting of my current blorbo because this way I’d be drawing something I like and still trying a new medium and learning things? My first homework was making concept designs for my OC? My next assignment will be making a scrapbook-esque research about Julia Lepetit from drawfee? Is this even real

For most, consideration of this Nothingness for any length of time is profoundly distressing. In fact, it is arguably this discomfort with the purportedly “empty space of autism” that energizes most autism intervention; fundraising, clinical research, and applied therapies are guided by what is typically seen as autism’s massive, imposing incomprehensibility. Certainly, autistic people sometimes hurt themselves, and those connected with autistic lives will often explain the need for intervention within the context of self-harm, but it is the larger rhetoric around mutism and social and conversational disconnectedness that drives most clinical autism discourse, an infinite well of figuring and explaining, resisting the existential aspect of autistic presence and expression and generating metaphors of fortresses, battles, kidnapping, and puzzles.

I've planned to post just mini-comics, but then I found this screenshot (Heathers 1988). Color palette, light reflections, sharp shadows - love this stuff. Therefore I draw Heather as Heater Chandler. I hope she doesn't look like she is in her 30s.

It all started because I saw some posts with Julia as Regina George (Mean Girls 2004) and I like to compare those two movies just for fun.

I haven't finished reboot yet. Did somebody die there?
