hello kind people of tumblr, my partner and i are in need of help. my partner is a tattoo artist, and a highly talented one at that. you can check out his work on instagram here. unfortunately, he was wrongly replaced at the tattoo shop he worked at in favor of nepotism and someone's bestie being given a job there. since then, he's been freelancing and having tattoo appointments at home. however, his printer broke last night and can't be fixed. it will cost more than we can afford to replace it so he is now without one, meaning he cannot do tattoos. a decent quality one will cost about $1000, and on top of rent and bills (i'm on food stamps) and feeding our cats, we're not in a place to purchase one. if he can't do tattoos, we have no money. if anyone has enough kindness to spare and wants to help us, you can send donations to paypal here!
please share this so it gets around, because tattooing is our main source of income and we need it to get by. thank you so much for taking the time to read this and help us out! we will be so grateful for even the littlest donation, it makes a difference!

My new album will be out on March 31st!!!!! UNKNOWN is a dark electronic project fusing psychological themes with witchy sci-fi-esque beats, taking you on an outer space journey telling stories of loneliness, hostility, vulnerability and self-realisation as well as reflections on society, relationships, technological advancement and shadow work. Stay tuned!

Any other neurodivergent artists just kinda end up depicting themselves with like....I don't know, a kind of split of some sort?
Like, maybe there's you and this part of you that just causes you issues, or there's you and the part of you that you need to do stuff but doesn't always cooperate, or you and the part of you that you find useful but sometimes overtax....that kind of stuff.
I'm aware of systems and figure y'all have your own cans of worms I'm not quite familiar with, but this is about whether a decision to depict my focus as a cat that really likes what I like and otherwise just doesn't really help when I need it is not entirely just a me thing.

First art of the new year is all about re-structuring your internal monologue.
In my early 20s I was working full time in London with many social commitments and a variety of hustles and side projects.
In my later mid 20s I cater to many sensory and social drain needs I have and indulge in special interests while respecting my lower energy reserves and celebrating my different way of processing the world.
Did I get more autistic? Nah. I got less fake.

[Art description: Three panels showing figures on a black background. Long descriptions follow.
1. A drawing of OP as a person with hip-length hair and a dress standing sadly with her hands clapsed together in front of her. She is coloured a muted rainbow gradient. Behind her, two pairs of nondescript figures chat while smiling. White text says, ‘I’m getting more and more autistic the older I get.’ 2. OP’s colours are brighter, and her expression looks happier. Crayon-like scribbles have crossed out the text from the previous panel. 3. OP’s colours are vibrant, and she balances on one leg and throws her arms out as she dances. The text above has changed to say, ‘I’m becoming more and more myself the older I get.’ \End descriptions]

I drew autism and adhd creatures learning how to hug in their own way

this obviously won’t represent everyone but the creature just didn’t want to be touched so the creatures found a different way to show their affection

A non-exhaustive list of the ways autistic people may show empathy even though we are assumed to not have it.
Are these exclusive to autistic people? No, not at all, we're just more often pathologized for them.
If I'm in a relationship with someone who does this, does that mean I just have to suck it up even if it doesn't work for me? No, it doesn't, but you do probably have some adjusting to do. You'll need to treat it as a mutual miscommunication instead of something it's all on the autistic (or ADHD, or whatever) person to fix. You'll have to change some of your expectations and get comfortable asking for (and explaining) the show of empathy you need - and you may even find out that the way you show empathy isn't working so great for them either. 😉
[Image description: AUTISTIC EMPATHY CAN LOOK LIKE… - Infographic by Autball.
White translucent boxes with black lettering inside on a magenta to purple diagonal gradient. The first four boxes read: (1) I’ve been through something similar, so maybe sharing my story will help; (2) Ooh, I know how to fix that! Maybe helping them solve their problem will make them feel better; (3) Oh man, now I have big feelings too! I just feel this so much!; (4) My favorite thing always calms me down, so maybe it’ll help them too. I’ll ask them to do it with me. These four are grouped together with a blue line and labeled: Misinterpreted as “Making it All About You.”
The next four boxes read: (5) I’m not sure how to help, so I’ll leave it to that person who looks like they do; (6) When I’m upset or overwhelmed, I prefer to be left alone, so I’ll bet they would like the same; (7) If I get involved, I’m gonna become overwhelmed myself, and that will take attention from them, so it’s best to just stay out of it; (8) I’m not sure how to help, and I usually make it worse when I try but get it wrong, so it’ll be better for everyone if I just do nothing. These four are grouped together with a blue line and labeled: Misinterpreted as Cold and Uncaring.
At the bottom is one last sentence, in white bold lettering, that reads, “Just because we don’t show it the same doesn’t mean we don’t feel it.”]

In honour of webcomic day, here's one of my favourite longer comics I've made, called "the worst ice cream in town". As always, you can find many more comics on my patreon, which is linked in my pinned post.
