May is probably too soon but any Blasian and/or Pacific Islander Black or Dark skinned people (I can only think of the Rock but I know he’s not the only one) would be a good fit for then.

July is disability heritage month AND French American heritage month. If you want to space out any of your remaining characters, they may be a good fit there. I know I would love to see French-American/French-speaking Women of Color and Disabled Women of Color during that time :).

August is trans history month (that seems new to me but I’m fairly new to being trans myself) so again some can go there.

September 15-October 15 would be perfect for any Afro-Latinas and Spanish African ladies you have (I think Hispanic heritage month was originally September but a lot of schools changed it to these dates so kids have time to prepare and celebrate it properly.

October is additionally Filipino Heritage month so you could put some Black & Filipino ladies there (I know there’s a bunch but the only one coming to mind is Hailee Steinfield) and maybe some other SEAsian/mixed ladies there.

And of course November is Indigenous Month! Any Pacific Islander girls you may have not been ready for in May could go here, and Black other-Indigenous women too.

I have a feeling you already know these things but hopefully this can give you more time, it sounds like you have an important set goal and I’m hoping to help destress. God knows I have one hell of a drafts folder.

Cheers to your trans journey!

I actually have a list in the drafts of Black female celebrities with Asian heritages for May. July is always complicated because Tumblr has very little findable Black disability content. I have never thought about French, but maybe next year. Everything after July is further than I'm thinking about currently, but I don't feature Hailee Steinfeld, unless she happens to be in the post with the Sinners cast or something. She won't be in the mix of what I've got going on.

I do feel like I never really do nothing for Hispanic Heritage Month, but I also don't always know backgrounds. It's only been cool to claim to be Afro Latina in mainstream for maybe a decade and a lot of guesswork was done prior to that. (If I have to do research work to figure things out, I usually am gonna skip it.

My general method is to look at my BFCD Calendar 3 months out. So, currently, I've been looking at April, May, June. Last month, I was tinkering with March, April, May. Next month will be May, June, July. Etc. So, things that I intend to make lists for are in drafts and posts that I intend to share start going into queue about 3 months early, and whenever I don't finish, I either slap a placeholder tag on it, leave it in drafts, or take a nearby off day to rush whatever I might have in drafts into the queue.

I don't necessarily omit the mixed ladies from things formerly queued, they just don't have as many posts that fit much of what I have going on. They're usually part of the Pink Days or B&W Days, but not so much, most of the other things I focus on. (I'm Black American. Idk when a lot of other things are taking place like Filipino Heritage time - Idk if I have ever heard about it, even though, I'm sure it is a big deal to some. And I knew very few Black Filipino characters or entertainers offhand, so I probably wouldn't make that an event, because so far, it sounds like it would be a lot of work and I don't like to do a lot of work.

But. Like I said, the stuff that I've got, I'm gonna be able to get much of it out that I hadn't been able to move before, and then I can maybe think about future events that I haven't done previously. Some don't last, even. Like, I'm gonna probably run out of black and white posts within the next few months and do away with B&W Days.

11: What do you like best about this fic?

4. Piece you wish got more love?

For my original art: this drawing only got 14 likes on my Instagram lol but it's one of my favorite pieces I've done recently:

(I really can't complain about not getting likes on Instagram though because I put zero effort into taking good photos of my art and advertising myself 😅)

For my ml comics: jdgejsvs this threw me into a rabbit hole of going into my мой рисунок (my art) tag and trying to discern each comic's ratio for how much I like it vs. how many notes it got 😂😅 Personally I think this comic is objectively one of the funniest ones I've drawn, but it didn't get as many notes as some others I've drawn, so I'd have to go with that lol

Art ask game

My original masterpost started out as a place for me to link my 56 Win A Commission Stories (See below for more). Then tumblr mobile and eventually tumblr desktop said the post was getting too unwieldy. So here is a masterpost of my creations! It is not complete, because when I started out, I was not as careful about linking and keeping posts. But it is still fairly comprehensive :)

@patheticbatman - My art blog (it was started later, so my older art was posted on this blog)

My Ao3 - Where I post both fanfics and original works that are too long for tumblr or come with no art.

My Bluesky - Where I post nsfw art without coverings.

Art Summary 2025 - A little showcase of my art from 2025! It has links to the previous years, and a new one will be posted every December 31rst.

I'm going to see Shrek: Kātahi Te Korokē tonight and I am SUPER excited! My siblings and I used to quote entire scenes from Shrek in the car and drive our folks absolutely around the bend but I haven't watched it in years so I'm hype to watch it i tōku reo tuarua.

I've only read the book, and it's been years, but they're soooo good, and the gifs I've seen from the movie only prove that
