Well.

another wild HOT MESS survived, this time at the Baltic Anarchist Bookfair!!

it's been a whole year of the Fireman--a look i mixed off kyo/zhar and the blaze in my heart!

i still think there needs to be a kny sequel called The Rage Of The Hairdresser, just for kyo and his impossible bangs... but i'm happy with the wig progress, and the character it gained after the night party trashing. also happy with the face i did this time, esp the stage of just blush/eyeshadow and big black brows--very vivacious!!!

and i'm more than happy with the overall experience!

talked so much my throat died angrily. i gave the hot/manifesto talk--essentially an intro to the social toolbox that i like using--and it's thinking/sharing/connecting but at its core this communication is... an encouragement i'd say.

still baffles me that it's actually so possible to share ideas with a crowd. that it really is possible to make your words reach people, and that people can choose to reach back!

GOOD DAY GOD'S SORRIER CREATURES CHAPTER 9 IS HERE🦋🐈‍⬛

still can't quite believe it got this far, but i'm so excited to continue! after all this tension kyojuro is about to crack!!!!!

to celebrate the pet theory finally making it out of haku's head, a wonderfully worded commentary from @oak-n ! do remember the horse comparison 💗

HAKU BLAST!!!!!!!!! 🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

he's a version of post-demonhood Akaza spiked with various cat references! from Baby Corn to Machine Gun Max (the family cat) to nervous Siamese cats in general

2025 art summary

Hey ! This year as been great 💪💪 to see the rest -> #my art (And my character had a lot of smooches ahem. Link to template, sillies and more art under the cut, not everything is DA related)

Ecstatic to finally bring you God's Sorrier Creatures, aka the pet thing!

Set in a world where Akaza kidnaps Kyojuro after their battle at the Mugen Train. It’s a character study, as well as a deep look at love and torture of being a hostage.

Today I am almost sixteen, after living through two years that felt like a hundred filled with pain, displacement, and loss.

Two years of war that devoured our dreams and childhood, stealing our sense of safety, our education, our very lives.

I used to be a top student, full of big hopes for my future.

But I’ve lost two whole years of learning, two years of my life, my future, my self.

This cursed war destroyed everything around us.

It changed our faces and left our bodies frail from hunger and deprivation.

It denied us food and water, medicine and rest, everything that makes life bearable.

It erased all our beautiful memories, stole our laughter and peace, and left us wearing the faces of survivors.

My family and I have lived between bombings and ruins, hunger and fear.

We moved from place to place searching for shelter, sometimes sleeping under the open sky,

sometimes in places unfit for life, between the freezing cold and the burning sun.

I’ve seen the fear in my sister’s and brother’s eyes, and in the faces of the few friends who remain.

I’ve seen my father, sick and jobless, helpless to provide us with food.

And I’ve seen my mother try to stay strong while everything around us collapses.

Two years of impossible survival. Two years of waiting for a ceasefire that never came.

And today, after the announcement of a new ceasefire agreement, we feel both hope and fear.

We pray that this time it will hold, that this time it will be real.

Hope that this nightmare will finally end, and fear that we will be let down once again,

as we have every time peace seemed near and this cursed war continued.

Please, don’t leave us alone.

Help us. Share our voices. Support us in any way you can.

Gaza today is not a place for the living. It’s a witness to the world’s silence.

My name is Ahmad, from Gaza.

I once dreamed of becoming something great.

But now I only dream of a day without bombing, and a morning that feels like the ones we used to know before the war.

some notes on Kyojuro and Zhar!

Zhar (she/he) is an oc-level alter ego i developed for Kyojuro: older, discharged from the corps, and entirely disillusioned. A bigender SM dominatrix to lead in 120 Days of Loving Devotion!

❗This is not just a headline. It’s our reality.

No food. No medicine. No safe place left.

We cry out in every language, hoping someone hears us:

غزة تموت جوعاً

Gaza is starving to death

Gaza meurt de faim

Gaza se muere de hambre

Gaza verhungert

Gaza sta morendo di fame

Газа умирает от голода

加沙正在饿死

ガザは飢えで死にかけている

가자는 굶어 죽어가고 있다

Gazze açlıktan ölüyor

गाज़ा भूख से मर रहा है

Gaza está morrendo de fome

Gaza sekarat karena kelaparan

غزہ بھوک سے مر رہا ہے

غزه از گرسنگی در حال مرگ است

Η Γάζα πεθαίνει από την πείνα

Gaza svälter ihjäl

(#167 on the verified fundraiser list by el-shab-hussein and nabulsi) (but we had to make a new gfm campaign cuz our old organizer stopped contacting us).

My name is Abdulmajid.

I got married one month before the war. Those were beautiful days — full of hope, love, and simple dreams. I dreamed of a small home, a quiet family, and a baby girl I could hold without fear.

But the war came… Suddenly. Brutally.

My mother was killed. My brother was killed. Children in my family were taken by the bombs. My home was destroyed. And my work stopped completely.

Then… in the middle of this nightmare, my baby girl was born. A tiny soul, innocent, unaware of the war. She cries from hunger, from cold, from the sounds of bombs shaking what’s left of our walls.

Today, I’m a father with almost nothing… Fighting every day to find flour, milk, or even a small meal to feed my child.

Prices are sky-high — a single 25kg bag of flour can cost $800. There is no work. No income. No safety. No stability.

I write this from under siege, hoping my heart will reach yours.

Even $1 can make a difference. It can feed a child, buy milk, or bring a moment of peace. Be the heart that reaches Gaza. Be the hand that saves.

📌 Please share this post. Let our voices be heard — not buried under rubble.

My dear friends, During the last war, my home was completely destroyed. In just a moment, I lost everything , my shelter, my memories, my safety, my whole world.

Now, I’m trying to return to North Gaza, to the place that once held my life, just to build a small tent and a simple bathroom… something that can give me a bit of dignity, a place to breathe again.

Tent construction cost: around $1,525 USD (includes wood, iron, waterproof fabric ). Bathroom setup cost: around $420 USD (includes water pipes, water tank, toilet, sink, and plumbing materials).

Deadline : 22 October

Current Progress: $ 18,785 / $20,730
