I see #TransNotGoingBack trending, and uh... yeah. In case I didn't make my point clear enough the other day: I'm absolutely never going back.
I haven't transitioned for 12 years on some random whim. I did this so I could be myself. And I achieved that, and I'm happy. Thank you. x.com/LynnSenpai84/s

"I've been hoarding treasure (collectibles) my whole life and I've been known to breathe fire sometimes (in a manner of speaking after spicy food). Does that count?"
I love seeing the Miiverse "Yeahs" everywhere, but I kinda wanted to make my own.

Love it! Remember kids (and folks in their 20s, 30s, 40s, and up), there's no cutoff! If the only reason you're not transitioning is because you've arbitrarily decided you're "too old to transition," stop being silly and transition already! It's never too late! 
Ah. "My friend isn't taking care of themself and isn't taking the situation seriously so now I have to give some [extremely] tough love."
I admit I've been the Sabine and the Goldie in the past before. Those were stressful times, but you handled it really well here. Love it.

I recommend Dragon Quest in this instance. Stat-reduction spells are usually very effective against bosses and sometimes, status effects too. You can even put the final boss to sleep in the original game. XD

Indeed. Was ace before. Still ace after. Nothing's really changed except I don't have that bottom dysphoria anymore.
It's always such an honor to hear about people speedrunning my comic. I thrilled y'all enjoy it so much, but don't forget to take breaks and hydrate as needed too!

You know you married the right person when it gets to the end of the day and we both simultaneously have the sudden realization that today's our anniversary. Whoops! XD
Married 16 years, and we share exactly the same level of derp. ^_^

"Hormone seller, enough of these games! I'm going to transition and I need your strongest hormones!"
"You can't handle my strongest hormones. No one can!"

To be clear, yes, this is inspired by 's Dragon HRT series. I actually started to draw this close to two months ago, but I've been busy and juggling a lot and it just kept getting sidelined.
So, I figured I'd share this little teaser to see reactions and go from there.
Replying to
I'm so sorry you have to deal with such entitled people. I've been there myself, and I know how deflating that can be. Go at your own pace and do what feels best for you. ^_^
To everyone else: please understand that these comics are made for EVERYONE, not specifically just you.
Replying to
Ugh. So accurate. The bureaucracy of transition was literally the hardest part. I'm such an introvert, making calls and lining up appointments and arguing with insurance and all that paperwork filled me with so much angst. If I didn't HAVE to do this shit to be happy, I wouldn't.
Replying to
Joke's on you! I'm into...
*checks notes*
...personal growth and self-acceptance.
In personal news, a whopping ten years ago today, I started HRT. I used to think it would never happen, and now it's been part of my life for ten years already! ^_^
I hope you all keep reaching for all the things you want in life too. Y'all deserve only the best.
Enters a neurodivergent safe space. Gets ganged up on for having a differing opinion on irrelevant off-topic thing. I have autistic meltdown. No one apologizes. They move onto lighter more on-topic thing as soon I leave.
And I wonder why I'm so tired and depressed lately...
Update: I've been in the ER for the last few hours. Still here. So I guess it's probably good I didn't commit to anything today. ^^;
I think I'll be okay in the long run, but it's been a very long couple of days. Please send funny or cute things to make my day.
Er-hem... Forgive the repost. Forgot to hash my tags before. See y'all at #transprom x.com/LynnSenpai84/s

Resharing to remind everyone that Rain begins it's final chapter tomorrow. This is all at once, very exciting, very emotional, and extremely stressful for me.
And I really hope you'll all like it. ^_^
I vagueposted about it yesterday, but some of the hate being spouted is irritating me too much to be subtle. It's okay to dislike a work; it's not okay to be an asshole to the author over it. If you can't speak without being toxic, maybe you should just not comment. x.com/NyxisArt/statu

My friend has a stalker and is looking to move for her safety. I unfortunately know firsthand how scary and isolating this situation can be.
If you're able to help monetarily she has a KoFi. If not, even just sharing this around would be very helpful!

I still have it bookmarked as Twitter.
I will still type Twitter if I link to it.
I'm still calling it Twitter.
That's it. That's the tweet. ;P
It's already been a month since the last page of Rain. Still kinda processing that myself. It both feels like it hasn't actually ended yet, and also like it somehow ended years ago. XD
A month later, how are you all holding up?
For the record, I'm gonna keep calling this Twitter.
I'm gonna keep calling these tweets.
And I'm gonna keep calling the owner of the platform a fucking twit.
Just another day on the internet. ^_^
We just unexpectedly lost one of our rabbits today. I'm not in a good way right now. I may go quiet for a bit, and may miss a day of posting. Sorry for the inconvenience but I appreciate your understanding.
Binky free, Astrid. 
Take care, everyone.
Take care, everyone. 11 years ago today, I legally changed my name. I've been Jocelyn for quite some time now. (I mean I've been answering to it for much longer, somehow getting my friends to call me that as a nickname even before I came out), but you know, it's been "official" for 11 years. ;P

And the second biggest mistake this person has ever made is sending weird DMs nobody asked their opinion on. :P
As an aside, bottom surgery is probably the second biggest victory of my life, so I'd like to counteract their negativity with my encouragement. ^_^

Having to cut toxic people out of your life is hard. At least for me, I often beat myself up, thinking there should've been SOMETHING more I could do.
But then sometimes: oh, man! It's just instantly freeing. Like, I just wanna do cartwheels down the street right now. XD
I'm getting better at just blocking people who harass me. I used to always put up with it because I thought I just had to.
I don't. You don't either.
There's too much bullshit in the world; there's no reason to subject ourselves to additional bullshit if it can be avoided. ^_^
Thank you everyone showing their support and sharing their stories on my last post. I'm reading them all and love to see it!
It is starting to get enough traction to draw in the haters, but that's okay. There's a report and a block with each of their names on it. XD

Wanna draw. Too tired.
Wanna write. Too tired.
Wanna game. Too tired.
Wanna sleep. Get up and do something.
Sigh...

Congratulations! You absolutely deserve it! :D

Oh, to be so relaxed that one simply becomes a fluffy little cat. :3
I can't believe how quickly I went from casual outside observer to "okay I guess I'm just a rat now." XD
Some folks are worried about Rain because of the tone/theming of some of these. I'm very open on my philosophy of "heroes conquering ordeal to earn their happy endings" for my own work.
But I support my friends' visions even if they seem dark or ideologically different.

A depressive phase after a huge life-changing event - even a good one - is actually healthy and normal. After my own bottom surgery, something I wanted more than anything, I dealt with it for months.
8 years later, I'm great. I think this'll be one happy dragon before long. ^_^
Thank you, everyone. I've been so anxious about this exact page for literally years. I'm so relieved to see it's landing for people. This has really been a huge weight lifted off my shoulders.
Hey all! A dear friend of mine and frequent collaborator, is going through some very hard times and is in need of help to pay bills and living expenses. If you can help, please do. If not, it'd be great if you could at least help share this around.

Delilah is a mood.
Remember, aspiring writers! You may know what you're asking and why, but your friends and Google searches don't. XD
#ArtistResolutions2022
Ironically, they're not all that different from my 2021 goals, but they're actually more attainable this time. I won't say anything's inevitable lest the universe find a way to thwart me, but I hope to make the most of the coming year. :)
- finishes anime
- last episode offers no closure
- no second season announced
- manga still ongoing
- damn it
- adds manga to reading list
- probably never gets around to it
- looks at new upcoming titles
- "this looks neat, only 12 episodes too"
- and the cycle begins anew
As I say every year: fuck fireworks.
It's worse than usual this year because in addition to me not handling sudden loud noises that sound like gunshots and explosions well, this year I get the added bonus of a splitting headache the whole time.
Fuck fireworks forever.
Fun fact: I swear a lot in real life (mostly to stall while trying to think of what to say in order to mask my stutter), but I try to limit myself to a PG-13 vocabulary in my writing.
But my previous post's "terrible comic" was actually my first comic to use an f-bomb. XD
I hope all my trans friends have had a nice Trans Day of Visibility (or at least a better one than mine). I'm only just now realizing it was today, because I spent most of the day sick and asleep, and I missed the whole thing. Whoops. ^^;
