PSA: Take 30 minutes at dinner tonight to talk about Mpox. Pull up some photos on the big screen, and discuss how it spreads—through the air, skin contact, fomites, crusty flakes from scabbed pustules, and sex.

Just ordered a paperback of this jaw-dropping book, and couldn't resist making a moodboard! The Cruel Gods: The Thirteenth Hour has fantastic worldbuilding and characterization, and is my favorite book so far this year ✨
How many fat people exist in your art? Do you want to increase that number? ✨Hell yes, you do!✨
🖼️ https://t.co/76MqS4k63u is a free resource I started putting together in 2020 to inspire the inclusion and non-fetishized depiction of fat people in art. (1/3)
