Hey there! =) This is based in the story of real people from 18th century Sweden, Ulrika Stålhammar and Maria Löhnman. A bunch of years ago when I first read about them I was so impressed, I still wasn’t used to the sort of stories that people wouldn’t believe in a movie (will I ever be?), and since I wished to make a comic about them.

There’s so many stories like that I feel need to be shared, people that usually wouldn’t be welcomed finding ways to reach happiness anyway, whatever that meant for them, no matter the period or place. And as more time passes more of us succeed in that.

I intended to put this up on Gumroad, but in the end I didn’t feel like charging. Making this bit by bit helped me to keep my sanity this last month and I hope it can bring you some good feelings as well.

“this is not to say that russia hasn’t been able to squeeze advantage out of false friendship in the past. but china is a different case entirely —much less prone to altruism and accommodation, proud, self-reliant, ambitious, and patient. why should china help cure russia’s complexes, or give its elite the means to secure their vanity or personal wealth? in this new entente, the kremlin has but two choices: play the role of lap dog, or get ready to whine about how it is being humiliated all over again. the west, in treating the russian elite with kid gloves, failed to teach it a lesson; china is much less likely to err on the side of lenience.”

i know the best places to throw myself so that
when i hit the ground, the hurt sticks

i know how to open these bones with just my teeth and 
a gold credit card and 

last night was beautiful i barely ate and when i cried
nobody heard me 

i’m sorry i’m a messy lover i’m sorry that i come as 
an expired body, already worn and already

unbecoming  —
i mean 

i told you and myself and my mom and anybody that would listen
that no i wouldn’t go back there again but

i woke up in this place where the light is eating through my eyelids
and yesterday i almost told you everything, how i’ve been a house of spiders

and none of them are interested in helping me live
but

you look like a knife and i am looking 
to get rid of myself

come kiss me, nevermind, i’m fine, it’s just a long day,
ignore the shaking and ignore the ache in my voice

i’m fine, it’s fine, shit happens in storms and we’re just
caught in the middle of one 

i don’t mean to be annoying it’s just 
not even breathing feels effortless

and i want to be someone who isn’t a burden,
who goes like smoke, who carries no weight

who whips out of your life,
never leaves footprints.

Damn, save some for the rest of us

This is like the opposite of that dude sliding down a snowy hill with classical music

unstoppable force vs immovable object

starcrossed lovers

a challenger approaches:

these men represent 3 different facets of the physiology of human beings

gas station dude: raw physical power 

classical music guy sliding down a snowy hill without skis: polished intellect

scooter man: unstoppable libido

gas station dude: id

classical music guy sliding down a snowy hill without skis: super-ego

scooter man: ego

these are the only 3 human emotions

I hate that coming out is like, entirely for the sake of cis&straight people. We come about because they can’t stop assuming that everyone else is cis&straight, we come out because they can’t stop being homophobic and transphobic and assuming that we are comfortable hearing it, we come out because they keep asking about why we don’t have a boyfriend yet or monitoring which bathroom we use. And then there’s the fact that cis&straight people are so invested in us coming out. They tell us it’s lying and deceptive when LGBT folks don’t come out to the point that they tell other people for us, they tell us that they “already knew” or “could tell” and brag about their gaydar or else they praise us by pretending it’s a compliment that they “never would’ve guessed”, then they go on to call us “brave” and “strong” for doing something we never should’ve had to do in the first place. And then there’s the idea that we are the ones who should feel ashamed about it and be told that they “still love us” despite the fact that it’s their hatred and bigotry that we’ve had to deal with the entire time we’ve known them and not the other way around. Coming out is the only milestone they think we have because it’s the one that they play the biggest role in and the one that they necessitate and I absolutely hate that about coming out.
