big day today
Black history month isn’t just about celebrating the people we know, but uplifting the people whom we might not know.
This was truly a labor of love as I spent that past few weeks learning about Tina Bell’s life and the impact she and BAM BAM in general had on the Seattle grunge scene.
I would love it if you read about her story and share this with others who are passionate about music and black history, I want her to be just as much of a household name as Kurt Cobain.
Also please listen to their album! Its incredible!
Happy Black History Month to all my Black grunge guys gals and pals!!!! We were always here!!!
Common punkflower tropes that I live for:
- Hobie meeting Miles' parents and charming the socks off of Rio
- Hobie living on a boat
- Patching each other up after a bad fight
- Miles going from filling his sketchbook with drawings of Gwen to drawings of Hobie
- Hobie asking before looking through Miles' sketchbook
- Haircare!!!! Hobie doing Miles' hair for him!
- Hobie's friends/family all finding Miles adorable
- Miles going to one of Hobie's shows
- Kissing the homies <3
- "Sunflower" "Cariño"
- Hobie doesn't like labels but he likes being Miles' boyfriend
- Hobie learning Spanish just for Miles(and being terrible at it)
- Miles pretending to not understand British slang just to tease Hobie
- Hobie is bad at video games/Miles is great at video games
- Miles making fun of Hobie for his dimension being in the 70s ("Dude you live in the stone ages." "Oi!")
- Late night talks and waking up in each other's arms to Rio knocking on Miles' door asking when he's going to get up
- No-power au meetcutes
There's more I might add later
the front and back cover illustrations i did for ONI HOUSE PRESS’s The Sun Weakens Beneath The Skin. you can pre-order them here. support black writers and stories!
Sun Weakens Beneath The Skin explores the complexities of the perception of the Self and the non-linear journey of the personal sense of Self, to what becomes of the Self in relation to its environment and other Selves? When one is denied the space and time to think of oneself beyond the physical. Sandra T explores these questions in an inner and wider spectrum.
