If anyone at all is looking for a fantastic bit of queer media to watch this pride month (yes i am aware that it's nearly over but ive only just watched them myself) then please please check out:
Lingua Franca (2019) dir: Isabel Sandoval. The story of an undocumented Filipino trans woman living as a live in carer in New York
And
Carlotta (2014) dir: Samantha Lang. A film based on the life of an Australian trans icon and her friends and how they went from working class boys to household names. -A quick warning though this film is dark in places so please be cautious-
Both are centered around the trans experience, and I found both through looking at the work of actor Eamon Farren, and both are fantastic films that I wish were more well known.
If my mates aren't down to do this at the drop of a hat, no questions asked, what are we even friends for?
I am utterly captivated by this video series that Taryn Delanie and friends have been making on TikTok
anyone else get the constant fear that there are unspoken social rules you dont know about (especially in new situations, like when i first started taking the bus, i was afraid i was doing it wrong lol) so youre just always on edge and kind of… watching how other people act so you can copy the “correct” thing to do
Deans also 100000000% the kind of guy to find something and get fully distracted by it. Like the ADHD urge to put on the random paper crown from years ago the moment it makes an appearance and keep it because 'what if I need it later??!?'
(might be projecting, leave me alone here lmao)
Today, Dean sets out to clean his room. He gets about half of what he wants to do done before taking a midday nap, leaving the rest of the cleaning for another day.
being trans in the uk is scary rn so i drew trans dean to cope lol 🏳️⚧️
After the week we've all had let's have some destiel art. As a treat.
Dean that’s not what a vampire looks like…
It’s asexual awareness week! All cheating at cards is allowed for the next seven days!
YEEHAW! Jokes on anyone who tries to play cards with me! I don’t know how to play and I can’t remember the rules for longer than three seconds! I hope you get some use out of the week though! I kinda forgot it was asexual awareness week, so thanks for letting me know pal! The week has been improved!!!!

I LOVE HOW YOU'VE DONE YASSEN!!! THIS IS AMAZING!!
This is for @actuallytalldumbass but everyone else can look at it too ig... strap in tho, I'm a yapper, warning for ddbs spoilers as well lol
this one is prob what i would consider the first definitive piece of art I did of Alex that established this sort of look. The braid was a very essential part to how I drew him in the beginning, but these days I almost forget about it entirely.
this is a goofy idea i had of Alex and Yassen in that cutscene from Silent Hill. Not my best work, and I had never drawn Yassen before when I did this so he looks like about six different people throughout.
based on a bts photo from End of the Fucking World. love that show. and I think my art teacher posted this on his insta.... don't go looking tho.
I was reading Devil and the Deep Blue Sea around this time so occasionally the art will have them in what is likely a very inaccurate uniform. Not happy w how Yassen looks, but Alex? Amazing. the little thing in the corner is a note from my friend telling me that Alex does NOT look like that.
someone i know suggested a propeller hat.
Read a Sarov-Wins fic. Alex in a commie uniform.... what can I say...
Alex and Yassen (And My Melody shhhh)
I started drawing goofy t-shirts. That's a skateboard btw.
captioned "Meanwhile on Santa Caterina" there was a companion drawing of Julius pretending to be Alex, but I didn't include it.
The leg in his face prob looks familiar from the soccer drawings.
nothin to say about this
what i imagined Alex wearing before confronting Kurst in ddbs
Alex having a mental breakdown or smth. wearing interesting makeup too, idk why.
I think my main concern with posting Alex with long hair is less about the non-canon aspect of it and more about how unintentionally feminine my art style makes him look.... I have no problem with it, but I'm not sure about other people haha.
BONUS YASSEN BAM!
"nothing is real atoms never touch each other youve never touched anything in your life" ok. well when i pet my dog he is soft and when he licks my hand it is wet and that is far more real to me than whatevers going on at an atomic level
IM SORRY BUT THOSE HANDS ARE SO WELL DONE!!!!! OH MY STARTS ITS BEAUTIFUL ART!!!!!!
The Fall (Part 1) - 2024
Inspired by the painting The Fall by Alan Stephens Foster. This one is called "Part 1" because I did two versions. As I couldn't decide which one to post, I'll post the two of them this week ("Part 2" will be uploaded this Saturday).
