Alpha Wolfgirl x Omega Wolfboy Vol 1 & 2

heed the trigger warnings Hentai for the aggressive fucking folks out there. There’s so much to dig into here. It’s like a cake of incredibly thorough A/B/O worldbuilding.

778 Days

A simple, strong opening that delves into the struggle of being transmasculine. Having to reconcile the former feminine with the awareness of the inherent privilege of being a passing man, the preconceptions of the effects of testosterone on the body, the extremes of dysphoria, and remembering the past. It’s short, it’s sweet, and it’s a

You were just selling lemonade.

Part of the Fuck Capitalism Jam 2025. One of the most popular entries in the jam, I decided to take a quick peek to distract myself from other shit. I wrote my comment (“Hits like a lemon truck”) but I’m still shy of making my full analyses on actual places where people can see. Go

Designing Barbarous

So, I really love Barbarous. I reread the minibook of the design and process for Barbarous again (I have it digital) and just… it’s so great to see the process other artists go through for story and design.

Welcome to the Menagerie.

Here is where M logs their media activity. Partly because Goodreads is forgettable and keeping physical logs is harder. Sometimes M writes a lot. Sometimes M doesn’t write enough. It doesn’t matter. This is just a for-fun little blog so that M can remember what they thought about whatever they watched or read or played or. Whatever.

What is M?

I read. Voraciously. I have subscriptions to those book things on digital retailers. I consume books at nearly all hours. The hours I don’t spend reading? I’m writing. I’m drawing. I have a problem. I have a problem in that I love to read things that are in the same vein repeatedly. Book journals don’t work and as much as I text my friends screenshots of book passages, it doesn’t scratch the itch. Now I’m going to be doing… tiny… tiny book reports.
