Little Cookie Comics
General | Posted a week agoPuppy just remembered something she and a few acquaintances did back in 2011.
It was called
LittleCookieComics and it's VERY... of its time. lol
I don't think I can get into that account anymore (no idea which email it was) so it's, unsurprisingly, very dead. Worth a morbidly curious peek, tho.
Sadly, one of the main artists on that project has been deceased for a while now. Swiftfur. So the comics also act as a little memorial to their work, in a way.
If I ever did something like that again I wonder what Little Cookie would look like now. X3 Those are, ofc, based off of my old design (and gender inaccurate).

Observation about FA
General | Posted a week agoThis is the only site I use where being sex-positive and pro-kink actively loses me followers.
Goes to show you what kind of culture the staff have fostered, honestly.
That said, it's hilarious how people still get shocked by my fetish defending. I literally have it painted all over my page.

Dear Trans-Men/Mascs
General | Posted a month agoYou are important, and you are valid.
I know it can feel like your struggles go ignored because of how loud and relentless attacks on Trans-Women are in the media - but you are not invisible. Not to me, not to many.
One thing is for damn sure right now - you are extremely important in our fight for our overall rights.
Please know you are seen and you are wanted, and you are needed.

My trip to where I grew up
General | Posted a month agoMy boyfriend was visiting me the last five days.
Before he came over, I discovered that a trailer park I lived in near 30 years ago was abandoned, and still physically there.
So we went to check it out - and I found my trailer. On the plus side, I got good shots of the exterior. On the downside, despite the trailer being still safe to enter (relatively), it was now owned by a big fat pregnant raccoon momma.
It was her home now.
The nice thing is, she did not seem to mind us exploring the front end of the place, but she guarded the kitchen and back so I didn't get to wander the entire length. Fortunately she was fairly chill so long as we stayed on our end, but we were on high alert anyway.
The bad news: I was too nervous about her to really relax and drink in where I was. I really wish I had calmed myself enough to get good shots of inside. Instead I just have a couple hasty, shaky videos.
The good news: I was able to enter my old bedroom. Despite it being nearly 30 years now, and there having been many families after us, the walls were the same. I could even see the pin-holes of where I had posters hung.
Standing there, in that space, three decades removed was wild. It may not seem like much to people who have a consistent childhood home in their lives, but for folks like me it was a time warp. I was able, for too brief a moment, feel my own ghost.
Most of the places I have lived in my life before 19 are gone. Literally bulldozed, and gone. That's why it was so important to me to go there. My only regret is that our raccoon host made me spend far less time and effort inside than I had hoped to. We did, however, capture her fuzzy visage on video.

New updates on me
General | Posted 2 months agoThings, in a VERY relative sense, are a little better now.
That friend mentioned in my last journal and I have re-connected. Thanks to both my journal and a mutual friend helping to give us an avenue of communication. That is a relief for me.
That said I am still not in a stable mental spot, so I am simply not ready to dive back in to social media, or rebuilding my Telegram yet.
For my subscribers, if you didn't notice, I am making an attempt to continue posting work on Substar despite my break from the bigger net. For the rest of you don't worry, I'll be posting everything publicly once I feel better. It will happen, barring tragedy.
This coming week (as of this journal) I will be spending some much needed time offline with my boyfriend
, we're going to get a hotel where I grew up and just relax together in the hills. Soon after that, in around May-July, I will finally be living with him. That is something I am almost unbearably excited for.
Moving forward into the future I feel like I need to pull back from being as accessible to people as I have been. There's been too much hurt lately, too many lies, and as my drawing "Perform" strongly suggests - I am burnt out so badly.
There you go, thanks for sticking around.

What happened to Cookie
General | Posted 2 months agoI am broken. You deserve to know why.
I will preface this entire thing with yes, it is ultimately the fault of the Trump regime and its zealots, and the conditions they have left us in. I, and the friend I will talk about, are both trans women. While we deal with things differently, the tension and weight of this Trump era eroded both of us emotionally, and mentally. There's no doubt. This time we are living in is tearing people apart by sheer stress and despair.
Trans folk, at base, are front row-two, just behind immigrants. Like the immigrants being tortured and, yes, murdered, by the Trump regime - we suffer a great deal of gas-lighting, denial and media cover-up/spin doctoring of the truth. There are two active genocides in America right now. A genocide on brown people, and a genocide on trans people.
I want to clarify here that while they are specifically using trans women to smear and degrade trans people, trans men are equal targets in this onslaught. The hate campaigns just find it easier to label trans women as vile perverts, because we're an easier social target (mostly because cis men know how scummy they generally are, and they think of us as one of them but in a dress). That said, the majority of trans folk actually murdered by Magats since Trump won, have been trans men. There's no doubt they are out for all of us, and consider Enby among us as well, if they are even cognizant of non-binary to begin with.
Anyway, what happened to me?
I was in a bad place. I had injured myself in a tender spot by accident, and was already spiraling. I wanted to share something fun with my Telegram group, to which the first and only reply I got was ":(", from the aforementioned friend. That triggered me into self-destructive hysterics, which in turn triggered THEM into self-destructive hysterics. Two broken people being broken together, poorly. Turns out the face wasn't even in reply to me, it was a poorly timed vague post meant to get reactions before details. Side note: please stop communicating like this.
This friend was extremely important to me and my social media. I am inept with technology, and relied on them to figure out how to even use most platforms.
They left everything we made together, or shared. I did too. Everything crashed down around us as we mutually self destructed. This resulted in the version of my FA page you see now. This resulted in me no longer having a community on Telegram, or Matrix. This helped me make the decision to delete my Discord and Twitters.
I have been almost totally non verbal since this all happened. I am finding it very difficult to speak.
It is also important to note that this is not an incident in a vacuum. My personal life has been extremely stressful, non stop, ever since that golden child-raping shit-head took the throne. My internet life has been near equally stressful. Constantly dealing with magat scum keyboard warriors, AI bullshit, and overall apathy from the public.
I was absolutely set up for this collapse. All it took was one inner circle pillar to fall over.
As a final thought - I do not hold any ill will against my friend. I understand that we're all barely holding together anymore, especially in our community.
