I do a little graphic novel/webcomic called Alien Romance. You know how alien romances are allegories for the experience of loving an outsider? Mine's that but without being an allegory.https://bsky.app/profile/zxnn.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/zxnn.bsky.social/post/3mjsnkopals2cI had a Talk with my son about You-Know-What Academy. That was an experience that doesn't bring joy to any heart. Fortunately, he already knows that women/girls are people, so I didn't have to cut through a layer of sxual objectification first. Don't other parents talk to their sons?19 Apr 2026 00:01 +0000at://did:plc:aohlmcjpmpnlitsccjlfncpb/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjsnkopals2chttps://bsky.app/profile/zxnn.bsky.social/post/3mjqdvw6owc2cTyphoon being Typhoon. $10. I've been working on my Typhoondraiser marathon, in which I paint my cat as many times as I can until the white Chinese ink runs out, but life keeps coming to sabotage me. Still, I've done a bunch and will do more. This one is still unclaimed.18 Apr 2026 02:03 +0000at://did:plc:aohlmcjpmpnlitsccjlfncpb/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjqdvw6owc2chttps://bsky.app/profile/zxnn.bsky.social/post/3mjaerwk2y22oI'm laughing so hard.

It's not really daily; it's a side project I run while I'm editing my graphic novel.
