I blog for the same reason I think some times. It is an itch I just have to blog to scratch. Hugs. Scottie

For me it is self harm. The constant pain my body is in and painful memories want me to cause the pain I can control, which releases endorphins, causing temporary easing of the mental torture I feel all the time now. But I don’t, and I won’t. Not now, not this minute, not this hour, not this day, not … as long as I can say not. I promised Randy back in 2014 I wouldn’t start doing it without telling him first. I have held to that promise. Hugs. Scottie

Ukranian soldiers advancing. That cat looks like it will personally take care of Putin as soon as the word is given.
It is 4:34 pm here in my office. Today I was struggling. But before that I had written an email to Ali that I was doing so much better and wanted to tell everyone. I had to go out to get my morphines this morning so Ron could take Tupac to the vet. When I got home I did a few things. Then I started doing the dishes and laundry. But by 1:30 pm my pain became so bad I was in tears. I desperatly did not want to take more medications, I get set back on my getting better every time I have to do that just to function. The federal government is trying to force my pain doctors to lower my pain medications yet at my last virtual appointment my pain doctor noticed how much pain I was in and did not decrease my medications anymore saying she could justify giving me that which RFK Jr. the road kill harvaster wants to deny all of us in serious medical problems. Remember this guy was also a cocaine addict who talks about snorting drugs off toilet seats.
So when Ron Ron got home from mowing his sister’s lawn he found me limping and nearly in tears. He had me take my blood sugar and I was having an issue with low blood sugar which could explain why I was shivering. He had me take two glucose tablets and stop doing any more work. I had been doing dishes and folding clothing by using my very high rolling stool that I moved from kitchen to bedroom and back as needed.
Ron made supper and I want to let everyone know that even as I was in tears from pain I ate a lot of food for me. I had five slices of rare roast beef and three small baked potatoes with gravy and a small bowl of green beans. I took my evening insulin which I have not had to do a lot of as I was not eating. But Ron was concerned after I ate that I was still distressed. So I agreed to give up trying to make this post for the morning and just post what it is. I do have more to add to it but my pain is so bad that sitting in my desk chair is horrible for me. I will add them to the next day’s post.
I thank everyone who is worried about me and I love that everyone enjoys these cartoons / memes / news posts. But I did promise Ron I wouldn’t take more medication which will make me sick and eat into my meager supply and would go to bed. I will try to make a larger cartoons / memes / news post tomorrow. Best wishes, love, and hugs to all. Scottie
Hello all, hope you’ll enjoy the upcoming Pride month content! This year, I’m planning to post comics every single day until the end of June. If you caught a glimpse at comment sections under recent strips, it has already pissed off thousands! It’s just the beginning.
It’s been a while since I gave you any life updates. My husband and I are still on the IVF train – it’s slow but steady. We are being crushed under the weight of debts because of it, but at least we got to keep our car after this spring’s threats, for those who wondered. Such is the price for growing our little queer family! At least we’ve got health.
I’m still trying to make a living from my art. I believe covering the internet with queer and trans comics and making bigots foam at the mouth is an important job, and you can help make it happen by getting me a coffee or by subscribing on Patreon. Every bit makes a huge difference!
So I hope Pride month will be good to you all. Except the bigots.
Be gay, trans, hydrated, or not,
Sophie
I am sorry this is so late, I am doing better which I will write about tomorrow, as I have to sit at my allergist’s office. The problem with today is my pain which makes it hard for me to function or get things done. But I am stronger is what I want to assure people. Hugs
Me when I am so tired. Hugs
