a set of screencaps from ‘dys4ia’ an amazing flash game by anna anthropy, based on her experiences with hormone replacement therapy. you can play dys4ia here this is a link.
the gameplay of dys4ia is incredibly simple, but dys4ia tells a really really really personal story, particularly for a flash game. obviously i’m biased, but anna anthropy touches on things with dys4ia that i would struggle to discuss, even with close friends.
at one point, i stopped playing right in the middle of one of the final ‘mini-games’ of dys4ia to watch the sun set and reflect on what some of it meant to me personally. imo, it’s probably some of the most strangely “honest” media depicting transition i have personally experienced.
that said, the game isn’t like, a perfect masterpiece. but it’s VERY COOL IMO idk i am extremely biased just ignore me k wutever. here is what anna had to say on the night she released dys4ia
dys4ia is the story of the last six months of my life: when i made the decision to start hormone replacement therapy and began taking estrogen. i wanted to catalog all the frustrations of the experience and maybe create an “it gets better” for other trans women. when i started working on the game, though, i didn’t know whether it did get better. i was in the middle of the shit detailed in level 3 of the game, and at the time i had no idea what the ending would be; it was hard to envision a happy ending.
this was amazing. there’s also a great interview with anna anthropy at prettyqueer.com at the moment
1. Don’t play this if you’re not ready to cry for about 10 minutes afterwards.
1.5 stuck on level 1 for five months ugh I hate doctors, I hate them, I HATE them.omg playing this right now. This is amazing

Not a lot of info on this wild minicomic Sacred Snot Comix I got at Fresh Meat. As best I can tell the artist is named Char Glauberman.
WOW!
Ooh.

fragile things
I’ve had this idea since the last guy that I “dated” rejected me, which has now been a few months ago. He had given me one of these shells on one of our first dates and I kept it in my coat pocket. One of the nights after being rejected, while at a grocery story, I searched in my pocket for the shell only to find crumbs. The shell broke to pieces just as our potential relationship had.
I enjoy how this piece turned out. At first I wondered if I should have drawn the hand in a slightly different position in each frame but now I think I made the right decision not to. I wanted to show the shell crumbling on it’s own without any of my own, physical interference.
I am excited to continue practicing more comic-like drawings, for one day I will get my graphic novel idea finished and the illustrations started. One day!
