Shameless self promotion for the vintage buttons I just listed on my etsy.
Fists In!! live at the Lo Pub, opening for Lemuria in December 2011.
(This is me in all my punk, fat, glory).
Why do people feel the need to hold onto their ability to oppress others? Why is it important to them?
Hey guys! I’m going to make silk screened shirts with my art on them. What colour shirts should I order?

Look it looks like I’m working but really I’m just looking at tumblr.

You are so sweet, I seriously get so happy every time someone says they relate to my work. Believe it or not I make it because I feel alone and have trouble relating to people. It just feels like an awesome circle of love and sharing when people tell me they get it!
I do have an etsy! Currently it is just some crafty things I have made (jewelry, canvas patches and buttons). But I have been trying to write a comic a day so I can put together a zine, also I’m trying to order blank t-shirts so I can silkscreen my comics on them, but they are being really slow about it.
I also have been thinking of making a zine about women in the punk scene (and the sexism involved). But when I start thinking about it I feel like I could write a whole book and I get overwhelmed.
I’m bored, so here are pictures of me with each one of my cats.
It doesn’t.
I’ve started volunteering at The Edge Gallery on Saturdays, and I’m putting together a DIY Fest at the end of next month!
This is my crudely photoshopped placeholder image until I have enough info for a poster.
Yeah! Punk!
