Not Ready

Midnight on a Friday again, Robin? Look, I get things done when I get them done, and then you all get them.

I shoved this one down pretty hard at the time. But not so hard that it couldn't pop up when I came out and slap me across the face with a sign that says "You fucking egg...

Putting the "Conflict" in Conflicted

This is actually the case for me with a few different family members.

This comic will double as a fun (read: awkward) way to find out if my mom reads my comics. (Hi mom! Maybe. I give it 30/70 odds.)

Every Time

Been struggling to art the past couple weeks, so have a simple comic about a dumb thing I do way too often.

Corrections

Just last week the lady behind the deli counter heard me talk and said "sir" but then came up closer and went "Oh, sorry ma'am" and I felt the power to do all that attacking and dethroning god that losers say trans people do.

Robin: Year One

Whooooo! This is a lot more than normal. If I do another of these in a year it’s not gonna be this long.

Also, I was tempted to hurt everyone (including me) by making the title a RENT reference. You're all welcome.

Have a bulleted list of other thoughts that I couldn't fit into the ...

A Perfect Disguise

New Horizons is my first Animal Crossing game. I didn't think the series was for me. But like every other Switch owner in the Year of Luigi 2020, I wanted something low stress to do, and bam, charming island life sim with cute animal friends comes along and suddenly I have  Opinions about a ...

New Year, New Me

The positivity will continue until morale improves.

I wrote and started sketching this comic on New Year's Eve, intending to have it up pretty quickly into the new year. And the following day, I came down with COVID. So, not the best start for 2022.

If I wanna be nit...

Truly Chilling

I plead, "Can I turn up the thermostat?"

"Put on long pants, woman!" is her reply.

I have basically never worn long pants and socks inside the house, even in the dead of winter. I will be forced to reckon with this habit in the coming months.

"Hey, so..."

I kind of cut this out from being a continuing problem by coming out via a comic that went wider than anything else I've ever made.

But telling individual friends and family was always preceded by a lot of anxiety. Even people who I knew beyond any shadow of a doubt would be accepting and s...

I've Been Misreading the Vibe

Ever realize that your general sense of decent regard for yourself has actually been pretty bad? That most people actually like themselves a lot more than this?

Haha, me neither.

I am doing much better now. (therapy and transitioning rule, actually?)

How It Actually Happened

My first comic with the bottle was always a fun abstraction, but there was a much more realistic big moment that I had when I really started to come to terms with myself.

I actually drew this very recently, but before coming out. Putting it to paper (digital canvas?) was kind of helpful for...

What's In A Name?

"WE THREW OUT HIS NAME!"

Forgiveness

You stupid asshole, past me.

Between the comic site and the hi-res Patreon posts there's over a thousand files I'd need to edit. Still dunno if I have it in me to deciding if I wanna go through the trouble. It's a lot of work, but it will probably also bother me more as time goes on? We'll ...

Appearance Department and an Update

Hey gang, you might notice that this no longer labelled the Experience Boost Patreon. I wanted to change it when XP Boost ended, but told myself to wait until I launched a new project, and well, time makes fools of us all.

In the meantime, I want to share whatever comics I do make here, so ...

Hey, Gang

"What have you been doing this past year?"

Well, I... uh...

So... yeah. My name is Robin, and I'm a trans woman.

So you might remember I missed several months of bonus comics at the end of last year, and said I would talk about what happened eventually. Well, this is that. 2020 ...

May-June Bonus Strip 2021

Hey gang, you may have noticed I paused billing on the page, so you're not being charged by Patreon for me for July (and probably not August, either).

I'm trying to drill down and get my new comic project off the ground and want to focus what (little) energy I have on that. I know about eig...

Hey! I got last month's bonus strip up before we were halfway into the following month!

Feb-March 2021 Bonus Comic

I keep intending to keep up with these, but time has become meaningless these days and then it's suddenly two months later and I need to do a bigger one. Sorry about that.

So this comic is an accurate representation of me and FF14, as well as a general sense of my mental state.

Bonus Comic October 2020 - January 2021

I'm still here!

2020 was wild and rough, and the last bit of it was especially rocky for me. I'll talk about it at some point (later).

I'm sorry to have missed several bonus strips over the past few months, so I made a little mini-storyline as a way of catching up.

Bonus comic August/September 2020

Hey gang,

Apologies for lateness on this one. BUT! The lateness here is actually due to me putting in more time on the next comic series I'll be making. I've got the first chapter of this new comic scripted and the pages thumbnailed, and have actually started drawing real art for real gosh ...

Sorry for the silence over here, things have been crazy all over, and I didn't have much "haha here's a video game joke" in me. But here's a big bonus strip to (hopefully) make up for it.
