Portrait format - click to see full drawing!
Finished! This is the social security administration building of Costa Rica in San José. It was designed by Alberto Linner Díaz in 1976 and is named after an author. This drawing shows the west side of the building, which is about double as wide.

12/ I am aware of all of the very legitimate criticisms of #Signal. They are real and they are why I am excited that there are so many alternatives with promise, some of which I use actively. Let us technical people use, debug, contribute, and evangelize the alternatives.
And while we're doing that, tell Grandma to contact us on Signal.

Session messenger / lewd /sexism
To all who thought that the alt-right #Session messenger is just a neutral piece of software without repercussions for your personal life, think again!
The #LokiProject just unrolled its latest feature: digital conversion therapy!
Yes, fellow fags and fairies*, just use #Session and finally become that hero-jawed, cishet, “totally alpha” bully, right out of a closeted right-winger’s wet fever dream 🤮️
Fellow artists, would you be interested in something like writer's hour ( https://writershour.com/ ) for making art? I'm thinking about setting up something like this, not sure how yet, suggestions welcome ~
Comic about online dating, mention of sex
This is a comic I made in 2016 when my friend was really busy with online dating. I wasn't really familiar with it personally because I had an old phone for the longest time, but I was enjoying her stories. This is all real, I'm not making anything up. Always wondering about the ethics of what I do but I figure its ok to laugh a bit with those guys.
non-binary, Iceland, +
Icelanders now have the option of "X" as gender marker in all forms of ID, including passport and driving license, as of the start of 2021. ^_^
And, a comment notes "I've noticed how binary the last names are in Icelandic before, but that's cool to see that they will be allowed "-bur" instead of -son or -dóttir."
Stumbled upon this #sticker motif I did ages ago for Berlin’s great comic shop #ModernGraphics.
IIRC the only requirement was: “Draw a figure that reads something”.
The lines are a bit clunky, but I still like this surreal idea of some sort of #Chaplin-esque mining bot “reading” an ancient laptop – a tip of the hat to #ModernTimes ⚙️
Please support your local comic shops in this time of crisis, especially those like MG, which always supported local artists!
trans*, Berlin, Medizin, +
Leute. Ich war heute bei der neuen Trans*/HIV/STD-Schwerpunktpraxis https://www.viropraxis.de/ (im Schillerkiez in #Berlin) und es war wirklich so nice, wie 1 befreundete Person geschwärmt hatte
Die machen da Innere Medizin/Endokrinologie, Infektologie (also HIV, andere sexuell übertragbare Krankheiten, PreP, Beratung für Sexarbeitende...) UND hausärztliche Versorgung.
Und wow war das ein angenehmer Umgang. Beim nächsten mal machen wir so ein allgemeines Durchchecken und es wurde diesmal direkt angekündigt, dass die Klamotten an bleiben dürfen, so dass mensch sich darüber keine Gedanken machen muss! <3
Wurde auch direkt nach Namen/Pronomen gefragt und darauf hingewiesen, dass, wenn sie mit der Krankenkasse Behördenkram machen müssen, da ein binäres Pronomen und so drauf muss aber dass man das zu dem Zeitpunkt dann bespricht.
Außerdem cool: Sie arbeiten mit 2 Apotheken zusammen an "besseren Hormonen", zB 1 Testocreme mit 1 Hauch Östro gegen vaginale Atrophie. Wow.
