it's bread!

We had to write a Mini Comic for my Illustration Class so I did mine based on The Frog and The Scorpion. Hopefully you all know the story! 

But if you don’t know the story… In the original the scorpion stings the frog in the middle of the river. When the frog asks “why” the scorpion says “it’s in my nature” and they both die. I like my ending more.

so again

Actual quotes from the Apollo 11 mission:

here are all of the scum who control oil, coal, and natural gas

here are the ones who run the factories

cut 6 perfect squares out of fabric(s) of ur choice, mine are 3x3 inches but urs can be bigger or smaller. make them all different colors if u want! go hogwild w this

now it's stuffin time

time to sew up the little hole with a ladder stitch! im using a different colored thread here so its hopefully easier to see, but when u do it id recommend using a color that matches better so ur stitches are more hidden. first put the needle thru the inside so that the knot is hidden

then pass the needle through like this, pulling as u go. try not to pull too tight or else itll end up weird and wrinkly! i still have some troubles making this stitch look nice, so dont worry too much about getting it Perfect! its perfectly ok if ur stitches show

once uve stitched up the little hole, tie a knot in ur thread and snip it off! now we really have a cube

repeat the process w ears and a tail in shapes or ur choice. mine's gonna be a kitty :3

i used some embroidery floss to make a funny little face. if u dont have any, u can also stitch on some teeny pieces of fabric for a face instead

finally, give urself a pat on the back for making a little tiny friend!!! u did it!!!

Give someone a rough idea of what your experience in the world might be like

Be a springboard for understanding both within yourself and with other people

Help you connect with other people that have similar experiences

Give us new words to describe a very specific experience where before there was none

Things that labels for sexuality and gender DO NOT and SHOULD NOT do:

Give someone else a complete and detailed idea of who you are and what your experience is

Put you in a box, thereby reducing your experience to a few words or sentences

Act as a divider between groups of people

During my first month with my therapist, I was given this worksheet to read and work on. She noticed that while I was talking with her, that my thoughts followed a lot of these. I wasn’t aware that my anxiety had brought me down paths of low self-worth and stinky thinking.  After a couple of weeks of talking with her, she gave me this worksheet to work on.
