Hi all! I’m NOT, in fact, dead. But I figure this piece is a good excuse to give a life update.
This year has been rough–financially, emotionally, mentally, basically whatever ‘ly’ you can think of, it went wrong. I’m lucky enough to have a really strong support network of friends in my life, so I’ve been getting by–just not much else (hence the notable absence from most of my usual internet platforms). One thing that has come out of the turmoil from this year, however, is a notable development of self-discovery:
I’m pan.
I actually did this drawing of everyone’s favorite proudly/loudly bi Scottish actor Alan Cumming last year, as a kind of reflection/expression of this discovery, but I wasn’t in the right place emotionally or mentally to share it.
But seeing that it’s Pride month, and that I’m slowly inching my way into a place of healing–there’s still a long way to go with plenty of obstacles still to overcome–I figure it’s the right time to post this.
Happy Pride Month, y’all. Better late than never.
