One half of the Queer & Pleasant Strangers. Also a regular of Humans Holler At News. I make podcasts, music, t-shirts, and play board games. Queer, trans, disabled, fan of penguins.

Gizmo, a tabby cat with a white face, belly, and socks. She is stretched out on a grey and cyan rug. Two of my toes are just about visible on the top left.
I Saw The TV Glow, Blu-ray case, cover and disk. The cover has the title in bright pink letters and shows the scene of Owen with their head through the TV screen. It also includes a barcode on the bottom, right side and the words "A film by Jane Schoenbrun" and "A24". The case shows the scene where Maddie draws a bespectacled ghost on Owen's neck in front of a large illuminated fish tank in Maddie's basement. The disc is a dusky pink colour and has the title in a loose, hand painted style font in a contrasting green colour.
A tabby cat with a cream coloured face and white socks is stretched out asleep under a green cat tree upholstered with wobbly green fabric. Her expression is very peaceful.
Small tortoise shell cat is flopping off the edge of her cat palace because it's too hot.
A menacing black creature, covered in colourful eyes (an abstracted character from The Amazing Digital Circus) overlaid with the silhouette of the back of someone's head as they watch static on tv (Justice Smith as seen in I Saw The TV Glow).

Quote from Clive Barker's Books Of Blood Volumes 1-3 "You cut up a thing that's alive and beautiful to find out how it's alive and why it's beautiful, and before you know it, it's neither of those things, and you're standing there with blood on your face and tears in your sight and only the terrible ache of guilt to show for it."

Book cover for Who Hunts The Whale by Laura Kate Dale and Jane Aerith Magnet. It's in a chunky, pixelart style with a dark blue background or bricks. There are several platforms of white brick with computer workstations, developers working, someone is sweeping the floor, multiple handheld gaming systems, and lots of energy drink cans. The top section of the building has 3 white, male executives, surrounded by money. This section cannot be reached from anywhere below as there are no ladders or stairs.
Jonathan Holmes (off Road Rules) is a beautiful, bald man, wearing black framed glasses, and a grey t-shirt. Text reads "We begin to die the moment we are born." "Free fish with every percolator." "Fix your heart or die" The image is quite grainy and is designed to look like an advert from the 70s
Clearly built from the beige bricks intended to make the bunny, there is instead a Lego facehugger, from the Alien/Aliens movie franchise. It is definitely not a bunny.
In front of the manual from previous image there is now a perfectly built Lego dandelion and carrot

Here and there are semi transparent, crimson butterflies fluttering.

4 painted miniatures are stuck on wooden dowels. They are Quantrons from Power Rangers and resemble humanoid figures in black clothes, with silver boots, gloves, shoulder pads and helmets. Each is holding a curved, serrated blade, approximately as wide as they are tall.
Picture shows a page from the book Who Hunts The Whale. Text reads "He eventually stopped eyeing me up like a steak he was going to smother in Lubajelly, field in half, and shove between the couch cushions while his parents were out for the afternoon..."
