There’s a derailing joke in here somewhere, but I’m not going to be the one to make it.
It’s mentioned on the characters page that Maria has a blog, so I thought we’d check in with it. I had fun drawing her busy room (does anyone know why I chose that character for the plushie in the background?). If one a.m. hadn’t been creeping up on me, I would have liked to do some experiments with shading on this scene. Ah, well.
Thanks for reading.

↓ TranscriptHey there, blogoholics! It’s your webmistress, Ms. Maria.
Sorry about the dearth of posts lately, but I’m working on a new progressive art project that’ll knock your socks off. ^_^ I’ll be sure to get copies up on Etsy when it’s finished!
I’m happy to see the comments have been buzzing with great conversations the past few days. The transfeminism thread has exceeded my expectations, which I’m sad to say are pretty low, this being the internet and all.
Speaking of which, I unfortunately must reiterate: keep the comments a slur-free zone. Everyone should feel safe and respected when they enter the conversation here.
This includes “indirect” slurs such as gay, retarded, and yes, lame. If you call something “lame” to mean it is pathetic, bad, dreadful, unfortunate, etc… you are violating the rules.
And if you do this while commenting in agreement to my post on how messed it is for the creators of Lost to use the fact that Locke’s a wheelchair user as a symbol of his flaws?
Well, you just missed the Clue Bus to Comprehension Junction.
It’s a bit late but I’ll answer the sidebar question: That’s Birdo/Catharine from Super Mario 2, supposed to be the first explicitly trans character in a video game. –New reader coming in from Tiger Beatdown; looks like I’ll be staying.
CAN I JUST SAY YES. YES. I HATE THAT ABOUT LOST. I CAN’T GET ANYONE TO AGREE WITH ME.
… Late to the game here. This comic is amazing.
