not_funhappy pride yall! i'm really happy to report my first backerkit, queer birds, went super well. i'm waiting on everyone's address to be confirmed for rewards, and then i'll be spending the tail end of this month mailing stuff out. cedrick & effluvia both have been really patient, and so has our print connection rick.
i've also been working really hard to get inhuman back to the press with a new printer. there was an absolute collapse of communication with my old printer (not rick!! lol) i think only the owner works there now? and like many businesses, the boss can neither handle customers nor handle the equipment and software the job requires. so that sucked!
but the good news is the /new/ printer is very easy to work with and all my work is still formatted correctly. SO i'll be looking to /finally/ get issue 4 on paper as well as restocking paper issues of other chapters in the shop.
my pride sketchbook inspiration this year is drawing from fish and pride flags. i've been trying to keep up with a daily draw in that department. i used to be absolutely obsessed with fish and ocean life in my preteens, so i have a lot of favorites and thoughts to draw on. i've shared a few on art sites and social media or whatever.
i'm slowly gearing towards rebuilding this website's code. it's really a mess, i think it's been running on a hack & slash modifiction job i did to wingsy's code that was written in 2019... something that "works" but if you're using a screenreader especially is downright hostile on the back end. i can and should spend time fixing that during the summer hours it's too hot to do anything but type on a computer.
no convention plans for the summer... tho we are planning to go to a music festival later this month. yall remember you can do that in masks still right? cuz also later this month is my meeting with pulmonary. why did one lung become smaller? was it covid? was it radiation? there will probably be no answers. but it's okay, i'm getting used to lugging an albuterol inhaler around too.
stick it out with me folks. we all need to be in fighting form for the future. i just kinda have a feeling it'd be for the best.
