I love being autistic. I really, really do. Despite how society treats us. Despite now. Despite not being able to do many things others can which make my life much harder under this society. I haven't the energy to read the current shit us gov is saying right now. But our existence has meaning.

Autism does not need to be cured! It's the rest of society that needs to be more accommodating!! Neurodivergence and disabilities cause suffering only because we have so little understanding or support. Treating it as something "broken" or "wrong" only enforces that, please just help people instead.

I'm so tired of all the Autism Cause Developments, dude. Anything to blame it on an imaginary thing that can be "fixed" rather than investing to give us space, support, comfort, and equal rights to live a decent life lol

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today. Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943. Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s. Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

Signed. Fuck ICE, free Palestine, end fascism.

I'm being so real right now, learn how to engage in media as art and not a reflection of your own real life morals. consume things that make you uncomfortable and understand why it makes you uncomfortable. Don't just base yours and others morals standings on the media you consume.

Store's open until late night Sep 26th! Support a disabled artist and their trans partner, get gay animal stickers (or cowboys, or fae...) in return. These varmints are up for preorder and depending on how they do, a pins and/or a second series may come later! #artistshop www.coyoteprince.com/stores

The federal govt wants to rescind the Roadless Rule, which would open 45 million acres of public land for private interests - disrupting wildlife habitat, destroying carbon sinks, and imperiling outdoor recreation in the places we love TODAY is the last day for public comment - file yours now!!

FINALLY. Error report to follow in reply. www.coyoteprince.com/stores

We have only gotten this far as a species because we are social and hardwired to be empathetic. The greed and cruelty that those in power show are not innate aspects of human nature, they are aberrations that cannot last.

HANG IN THERE BABY!! #art

Conservatives/fascists live on such a mentally different planet I cannot fathom. I genuinely cannot grasp being this hypocritical, this empty of care, this selfish and two-faced. Their lives are so devoid of substance that they have to make it everyone else's problem just to feel something

Evidently the invalid order error ISNT actually fixed and there may actually be a coding bug. A few customers are testing work-arounds with me while I also talk to Squarespace. If this continues I'll extend the store opening. Sorry for all the disruption- I'm just as confused 6_9

INVALID ADDRESS ERROR FIXED: Turns out it was my fault. 🤦I'd been manually entering weight for every order for years, but only just recently switched to automatic carrier rates to save time. A few items were missing their info, causing the issue. Should now be resolved. Thanks for the patience!

If you are trying to check out from the store but getting an invalid address error- California or not- please send me an email with a screenshot of the error + your address. They are being forwarded to Squarespace to try to find what's triggering this. Augh

California customers: We've gotten multiple reports of Cali street addresses causing an “invalid address” error. We’re unsure as to why this is happening, but are waiting on Squarespace. Apologies for the disruption! I'll post an update here (and discord, and the site, and...) when we know more.

We're open again for a limited time and have some new things! Funding going toward new stock, promotion for my autistic fantasy comic Widderwood, and feeding two queers. www.coyoteprince.com/stores #artistshop

12 PM EST today! Gob is itching to pack orders.

I know it's not like intentional or anything like that but it is exhausting that disability (particularly disability while young) is always, always left out of rhetoric about who has been fighting and sounding the alarm about fascism for years (decades, etc)

Store reopening for prints, stickers, and these American varmint sticker preorders Sep 15th - Sep 21st! Funding will be going toward preorder stock & promoting my autistic fantasy comic Widderwood. www.coyoteprince.com/stores #artistshop #furry

I LOVE FLATTING COMICS!! if u need or know of someone who needs their pages flatted, hmu........i am flexible w/ rates : o ) here is my resume, a love letter (intro) to flatting via google slides full version of this presentation over at tinyurl.com/Vronflat !!

I sure picked a rough time to rewatch Wolf's Rain. I forgot exactly how bleak the entry to the final act is, good God. And how finely it aligns with current events is unnerving.

Just to be clear bc I know some people are anxious about accidently crossing boundaries with artists: I think it's funny as hell (in a positive way) when people find Waite or Deg sexy and make that clear for all to know

rightwing media ecosystem operates by stoking hatred and anger and divisions every single day, they want people to constantly be afraid and want people to hate eachother, everything we are seeing is a result of the destablization the right has profited off of

I got the dip pen out for this (context: Visa & Mastercard lumping "fantasy", citing "cat ears" as an example, under "illegal content"

Think its stupid that VISA and Mastercard think something as innocent as Cat Ear accessories are a bannable offense? Then heres something you can do about it. Complain to visa and MC, call your representatives. Advocate for porn, whole heartedly.

I simply cannot stress it enough. You cannot sit this out. They are coming for EVERYTHING. No media, no creators are safe under these policies. They want us poor, they want us criminalized, they want us disenfranchised. Call paypros. Call your reps. Do SOMETHING.

Seeing a payment service and major credit card companies list "fairies & fantasy" as ILLEGAL in the US is so outlandish that I can't help but laugh. Like please show me the law against fairies I beg you

Original Classics is now live on Kickstarter! www.kickstarter.com/projects/inf...

Your reminder that 99.99% of the artists you interact with are sustained by a second job or spouse/family, and followers do not actually translate directly to dollars

We lost one cat to cancer last nov, another this spring, and now my last cat is having a scare after I found a lump. I'm so tired of the losses man

Interest check! My post abt insta temporarily taking down my stickers breached containment. Gob has offered to head a 1 week flash sale of stickers while I'm busy w con prep. Funds would help us tremendously, allowing to offer preorders for the first set of stickers (coyote, crow, bat) What say you?

"Your cute animal stickers that promote survival" spread dangerous ideology" okay

September 9th! Save the date! My two Lenormands will also be available during the campaign! :D

I applied to my first ever convention art show/auction! Now I don't know if I'll be accepted. Perfectly okay if not, but I'm proud I put in the effort rather than shying myself away.

I hope the curse those witches put on him years ago has finally caught up (magic takes a while, yknow?)

Fellow history nerd weirdos, do you have any 18th and 19th century fiction books to rec? I love Sleepy Hollow, Black Beauty, and plan to read Fanny Hill uh.. someday. New to fiction of these periods, just looking to start. Ghosts, fairy, or "degenerate" (lmao) topics favored.

Oh my god please back this project, this is exactly what we artists need. LICENSING PLATFORM!

Having an online audience + clientw that have been routinely patient and supportive of me despite many years of disability/medical issues, exhaustion under capitalism, being inexperienced in comics + building basic management skills all on my own... It means so much more than I can ever articulate

I've started collecting and ripping up cards left by autistic orgs that egregiously push the "autism is on the rise" puzzle piece misinfo bullshit along with sending a strongly worded email (I don't expect them to read!) about how it harms us from burners. I'm so fucking angry and tired.

I mean it, fellow Americans: call your reps about this. It seems small in the short run, but this is going to fuck up businesses, especially small ones, big time.

Hosting another funeral service today. Death is perhaps one of the greatest teachers of empathy and care for others, if you stop to listen and follow up with action. How can you help lessen other's suffering today, even just marginally? How can you be kind?

Uptick in fellow disabled US artists being put in dire straits has me terrified. I am at risk of losing my house & studio if income doesn't improve soon. Widderwood is a queer fantasy comic all about how eugenics & capitalism punishes the disabled and autistic. Now nearing art production for ch 1.

Holding back from writing a long rant about it, but society divorcing art from human necessity & worth gets to me every day. From my own experience, it gets further compounded when you're disabled and reply on art as income. It's hard to not let it eat away at your self worth.

The Hallowed Grove For the boardgame expansion pack "Minos: Dawn of Faith" I was asked to imagine what religious ceremonies in ancient Minoan culture could have looked like. This is one of 4 illustrations I made for them on this topic, a kind of harvest ritual. Client: Board&Dice #art

Every artist deserves to be able to paywall all their art in a setup that would earn them a living wage, from an ideally financially-healthy supporter-base. But we love art and communication and sharing so much we do it for free. Which has caused society (especially tech) to devalue art as labor.
