My name is Kat, I'm 28, and if need be, your new mom! I'm in too many fandoms to count and live with my loving husband, our son, and our baby girl.
This is my personal blog, I'm bad at tagging things, good luck if you follow me for something specific.
(Call me out if I'm being problematic, I'm bad at tact)

Native-owned businesses to buy from. Taken from the North American Indian Association of Detroit.
For text searching, some of the major categories used are: Food, beverages, clothing, accessories, jewellery, home goods, hygiene, beauty, books, sporting goods — but there are also many items that didn’t fit neatly into those categories, so try ctrl+F / cmd+F for whatever product you have in mind!
https://www.sweetgrasstradingco.com - Food, beverages (coffee & tea), skincare and grooming, beauty products from a wide variety of different Native-owned brands. The closest thing to a one-stop shop you will get.

Living alone with unmedicated adhd is so strange. Every hour I’m awake is a total wildcard. I might deepclean the entire apartment. I might start to perfect the art of microwave popcorn. I might just doomscroll for 45 minutes then fall asleep mid-tiktok. I will let the wind take me where I need to be.
TLDR version reads thusly: “life hard. lots happenin. gotta cut back for a bit.”
I want to start by saying thank you for all the work you do on Daughter of the Lillies. I love the story, the characters, the world it is set in.
The above ask got me thinking. I think people tend to forget you are posting this for free, that we are not paying to view it. Flat colors, black and white, rough line work are all good given this is a side thing, a hobby, a labor of love, but not your primary income.
I personally view the webcomic as the preview we get. The finished product comes out in the hardcopy, which I can buy if I want the really detailed pages. We have all seen the effort put into the pages, seen even the edits, retouches, etc. So if the online version looks a little rough, just think of it as the teaser draft. Or just enjoy it as is and remember to like stuff the artist/ writers post, share the comic with others, etc.
i will remember with absolute clarity, when the thought strikes me that i have a text to send someone, that this is the fourth time in three days i’ve attempted to send this specific text
i will forget, in the time it takes me to pick up my phone, that i picked it up intending to send a text
