#1LineWed – Theme: Double

I didn't really love any of my lines with "double" in them to stand on their own, so I went with "twice" instead today. Also I hate the word "slough," but I use it because it's so visceral and gross. Ah, the sacrifices I make for my art.

#1LineWed – Theme: Heal

This color font on this background might be tough to look at, but I had some nostalgia this morning for early 2000s webpages, so deal with it.

Character Alignment Chart

Listen, nobody is going to care about this post, and I accepted that way before I even started making it. This is for me, okay? I took that bitch/dumbass/thot alignment chart thing, made it a little funnier (in my humble opinion), and applied it to The Wayward Deed.
