Undignified
“Undignified” is the word I’d use to describe myself, if I had to pick just one.
I love the undignified moments, they’re the ones I most want to capture in stone (well, comics) and share back with the world because that is when we are most relatable to each other as the simple little human ape creatures that we are.
I mean. You read about the incredible people— the ones who stop a runaway baby carriage from careening into traffic, or who land their first book deal, or who...

I’m on the bus now. This photo was taken a couple nights ago, when Lucy Bellwood graciously let me barge in to her house with hardly a warning to gobble up her leftovers for dinner and embroider while she knitted on the couch.
I’m thinking about community. I’m thinking how I instinctively recoil from official “Community”. The kind that organizes events and meet-ups based around a shared interest or identity....

https://www.ohjoysextoy.com/aids-hiv-prep-silver/
Who better to tackle the massive topic of HIV, AIDS and PrEP than a French Planned Parenthood volunteer who also happens to be gay, polyamorous, and got on PreP for himself just last year? Guest cartoonist Silver knocks it out of the park with this massive comic breaking down these complicated subjects.

Inktober 2018
The month of October has become an annual inking challenge for anyone with a pen! All's you gotta do is draw something (preferably with a utensil that uses ink, though it's not required) once a day every day for 31 days. The founding Inktober folks even provide a word prompt to help inspire, and it's fun to see how hundreds of people interpret the same word differently.
My relationship with drawing is... weird. Like, obviously...

A friend and I were talking about some issues they're having with their reproductive organs lately, but using the medical terms for those parts makes them feel dysphoric so instead they jokingly call it their DUDE-erus and BRO-varies.
So we're chatting and they referred to their cervix and I was like, "You don't have a portmanteau for that one?" and then I came up with SIR-vix!!!!!!!!!!
