I was invited to do a series of gender swapped comic book character Valentines for Comics Alliance by Laura Hudson!

This is the first in the series, Archie, Betty and Veronica.

“Gender-swapping has always played an interesting role in comic books, primarily in terms of derivative female characters with significantly smaller costumes, but also as a way to get perspective on how differently comics (and our culture) treats the different sexes…”

Love!

Haha, awesome. I read way too many Archie comics as a kid and even then
I used to get frustrated with them.

So close to havin double valentines. So close. Those even sorta look like my dates.

There is so much to break down in this world other than each other.

I'm really interested in and amazed by lots of stuff. Particularly:
- being queer as fuck
- breaking everything down (other than each other)
- active consent
- sex-positive education
- anti-oppressive language
- reproductive freedom
- rejecting the gender binary
- cooking and eating food
- dumpster diving
- appreciating
- being punk as fuck
- Doing It Yourself
- the ocean
- spoken word poetry
- spinning in circles
- blowing bubbles
- learning
- teaching
- sharing
- this little blue ball on which we live
- the solar system, galaxy and universe it is floating in
- honesty
- conflict resolution
- books
- direct action
- adventuring
- flexing my brain muscle
- being generally amazed
- you

Some people who are incredibly important to me died very recently, so this blog is likely to contain lots of stuff about death and grief and suicide. If this is triggering for you or you don't wish to see it for any reason, let me know and I will do what I can to help.

I also probably will post a bunch of punk music because that's pretty important right now.
