Checking out Strip Law on Netflix today! So far it seems pretty good... I really needed an adult animated comedy that wasn't Bojack Horseman. Or worse, Rick and Morty. I have a super-low tolerance for nihilism as of late. So far it seems pretty good. I like the character of Sheila.

Okay, a lot of Project Eryss lately, but I thought you might be interested: Now that two stories are up, I made a TVTropes page.

So I'm writing up on Westwood Tower, which featured prominently in the Welcome to Paragon Bay story, and I finally finished the drawing of the tower. I'm not very good with city landscapes, which is why it took me so long... but I'm pretty happy with the results.

I suppose Valentine's Day is as good a day as any to finally launch the second Project Eryss story: Holly Blackthorne and the Silent Choir! It's not a romance, but it does feature the rescue of a hypnotized and kidnapped girlfriend... and sex. And naked monkey-themed superheroines.

I've been wearing a scarf all day, and I haven't even been outside. ...it's a nice and warm scarf, more like a shawl really.

Ugh. And here's me owning an 18+ server at that.

...oh. I was that #jets was the #1 trending topic today and my first thought was "West Side Story". Shows you how into sports I am!

The second Project Eryss story, Holly Blackthorne and the Silent Choir, is done! My Patrons have had access to it for a week already, but I'll release it publicly next week. In the meantime, here are three of the story's four illustrations (the fourth is a little spoilery, so not including that).

Saw the new Muppet Show special! My boy Rizzo the Rat had an entire song number!

It's been too long, but I finally finished part 11 of the "Whatever Happened to Chibi-Dina?" comic! New goal's to finish the storyline this year. Currently the comic is 69 panels... I want to see if I can get it up to 100 panels, so with 6-8 panels per episode we're looking at 15 or 16 eps total?

it's #worldhypnotismday... but it's not for us kinksters. It's about hypnotherapy and "removing the myths and misconceptions" about hypnosis... so it wouldn't feel right to post fantasy-based hypnokink art. However, it's also @erospertempus.bsky.social 's birthday, and THAT deserves some hypo art!

Hi! I'm feeling much better now! I drew a one-page hypnokink comic based on Dispatch, featuring Coupe and Blonde Blazer. It's up on my website. artofdinam.com/dispatched-m...

Ugh. I really, REALLY hate December.

Agh. December. I just wish I could skip this entire fucking month.

Ever since I was little I've heard the Beatles song "Hey Jude" as "Hey dude." I know it's not right, and I know it was originally meant to be "Hey Jules" and Paul McCartney wrote it to comfort Julian Lennon about his parents' divorce... ...but I still keep wanting him to sing "hey dude."

Important info!

Apparently P*ypal now asks for customer opinions on accounts sending invoices. If you are paying an invoice to a nsfw artist, do NOT mention NSFW in any way, keep it blank even. you risk both your account and the artists.

Head's up there is a Bluesky ban scam going around. This account just joined 40 mins ago and send me this DM. DO NOT CLICK THE LINK. Bluesky would NEVER send a DM like this and make you scared. This would come through email and would have a more professional email than this. Stay safe!

...I CAN'T be the only one who's sick to my teeth of all the "I'M OLD, I'M OLD!" jokes/freakouts whenever someone references a show or game or whatever that came out ten years ago or whatever? Guys. Time passes. It's okay. I'm pretty sure you wouldn't like the alternative.

Happy Hypnoween! I made another comic, which can be read here: artofdinam.com/chibi-dinas-...

“When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.” This Sherlock Holmes quote is famous, but I say it's useless. Why? Because even when you have eliminated the impossible, there'll still be at least a DOZEN solutions that AREN'T impossible!

Paypal is now playing harder ball on artists, going after anyone even mentioning commissions. Artists, send invoices. That way, no one has to say what the money is for on Paypal's paper trail. Customers, SAY NOTHING about commissions. Just say "thanks" on donos. Everyone: INCREASE THE CALLS.

I did not know this. ...happy Lesbian Day, girls!

Gail Simone: Comics is about collaboration so as a writer I try to write to the artist's strengths. Shawn James: This is why comics suck nowadays -- artists demanding to draw only what they like to draw! In the REAL WORLD artists draw what I tell them and shut the hell up! ...okay, Shawn.

Know how they say you can't read in dreams? Well, I can. I just dreamt I was reading through my finished first draft of the next Project Eryss story, "Holly Blackthorne and the Silent Choir", and was astonished it was 50 pages in Google Docs. "Now it definitely counts as a novella," I thought.

Yay Supes!

FINALLY. After almost a month and several delays, my laptop is finally repaired! I've been using my Chromebook to keep up with online stuff, but it's just not as good.

Huh. I'm sweating under my right boob, but not under my left boob.

I can think of funnier things, but...

Kind of odd, but I'd forgotten the taste of melon. I mean... I remembered I don't LIKE melon, but I'd forgotten the exact taste. So I got this half-price bag of assorted sour gummi candy, and this one flavour stood out. I knew I didn't like it, but couldn't identify it.

Second season of Netflix's Sandman is up! Yeah... I know, all that stuff with Gaiman means I'm kind of less enthusiastic about the second season than I was about the first... but, well, I still want to watch the second season. I want to see how they adapt the comic.

Commission for @marleonka.bsky.social!

Happy Real Pride month, everyone! Hope y'all enjoyed the dress rehearsal Pride last month!

I finally sent my laptop off for repairs, so I'm without my main computer for a couple of weeks... depending on how long the repairs take. However, I still have my smartphone, my Chromebook, my tablet and my MobileStudio Pro, so, you know... I'm still as online as ever.

I think people in general are too quick to dismiss other people as "creepy" and "gross".

Oslo Pride Parade! Third year in a row I've walked in the parade! My feet hurt a little but it was so worth it!

I posted this last year... and I'm definitely planning on being in Oslo Pride Parade this year too. Unless it's raining. LGBTQ pride!! (I just don't want to catch a cold.)

And... just as promised... the new Project Eryss section (my anthology of superheroine-themed erotic mind control stories) of my website is up! We got character profiles, setting info, a glossary, and the first story in the series, "Welcome to Paragon Bay!" artofdinam.com/project-eryss/

Well, I'll do my part...

I have a terrible confession to make. I....don't hate the new version of "Heigh-Ho" from the 2025 Snow White movie. I mean the dwarfs LOOK like something out of CGI Hell, but the song... doesn't suck. I like the new lyrics, they add this "bickering family" dynamic to the seven dudes that I like.

Sometimes I remember misogynistic, homophobic or transphobic jokes from shows like The Big Bang Theory and get irrationally angry. Like I don't think I'm a violent person, but I'll suddenly remember something vile those bastards said and get filled with a desire to punch their fucking faces in.

It's Pride Month!

Oh yeah... happy Pride month! As usual, for the entirety of June I offer a $10 discount on all LBGT-themed commissions!

I feel so bad for these kids. They're going to get SO much hatred, and I suspect Arabella Stanton will get it the worst. I have long since given up on HP. JKR is an evil bigot, the HBO series is a pathetic cash grab, and WB are creatively bankrupt, but none of that is these kids' fault.

Happy Norway's Constitution day!

Still working on the site update, by the way. Got tons of stuff done this weekend, and I'm aiming for the official release of the brand new "Project Eryss" subsection this month. If you remember, Project Eryss is my long-in-process writing project, a series of erotic superhero themed stories.

The new Nevermoor book, Silverborn, has been out for days already! My Audible pre-order has come in! 18 hours of Morrigan Crow and friends await! For those of you not in the know: Nevermoor is a YA fantasy book series by Australian author Jessica Townsend, and it deserves all the attention.

Fuck. I've refused to watch the Ted movies because it's Seth McFarlane and the trailers were just so cringe, but then I chanced to see the a couple of eps of the prequel TV series and... ...it's actually kind of good. How the hell did that happen?

Asterix and the Big Fight miniseries is on Netflix! I've been looking forward to this. I've been a big fan of Asterix since I was a wee slip of a girl and read my dad's Asterix albums. I even drew Asterix myself a while back.
