#FirstFlight on #AirBaltic & #A220 from #STR to #ZRH!

Baby bird flight training.
Mommy was very patient with the very stubborn baby bir. I had to zoom in so sorry about the Blair witch project type cinematography.

#AllStarTrek Oh damn that was sappy. I guess #StarTrekEnterprise is an acquired taste.

#AllStarTrek This episode is an example of what I disliked about #StarTrekEnterprise. It's so soap-opery and melodramatic. Ugh!😖

And just like that, the poetry comics chapbook is *FINISHED*.❤️ OMG, can you believe it? I can't. Not just the comics, but *all* of it. Wow.
Since I posted this drawing to Patreon, I've been busy working on a website for the chapbook, figuring out fundraising ideas, and talking to the printer. I'm thinking of offering this particular drawing as a print — what do you think? Wouldn't this crow look great on your wall? *I* think so!
I'm both over-the-top excited to finally be done, and utterly at a loss for how to celebrate. Isn't that weird? So I'm trying to do that at least a little bit right here, right now. I made a Really Cool Thing! I still have to *get it out into the world* — but I made The Thing, and it's beautiful, and I'm proud. /1

On the A321's 🛫 #FirstFlight anniversary we celebrate 30 years of innovation! With over 4 billion passengers flown with 145 operators to date, the #A321 continues to #FlyFurther - soon to be flying 11 hours non-stop in true long-haul comfort with the #A321XLR.

The theme of “His first flight” is about self-confidence and courage. It teaches about the importance of facing one's fears bravely and boldly and one should always inculcate the spirit of never giving up attitude to attain success.

HEY EVERYONE! I have AWESOME NEWS to share! *Takes a deep breath for courage* ...Okay, here goes:
I am self-publishing a chapbook of poetry comics, and it's almost done! WOO-HOOOO!!!
Announcing this project has been surprisingly hard. I mean, really *really* hard. I've had to wade through a lot of internal noise & shaming around disabilities, internalized ableism, productivity, & all the awful messages we *all* get that our worth will be measured primarily by our ability to work & produce. All that garbage. I'm pretty sure many of you know what I mean & have struggled with at least some of this, some of the time. So I wrote a Patreon post trying to untangle all that, in case it's helpful to anyone else - hell, it might even be a pep-talk of sorts. If you wanna wade into that with me, you can find that here:

...Honestly, I'd really love to have your feedback on this & to hear how *you've* found your way through this stuff. Because you might notice that I scraped together the courage to make this announcement on Patreon back in March - and it's taken me just under 4 whole months longer to be brave enough to make a more general announcement here. I've been so afraid to jinx myself, so afraid to announce this project and then fail. I haven't known what to do with these fears. I didn't used to struggle with these kinds of doubts. YUCK.
Mostly the only way I know how to deal with fear is to shrug and do the thing anyway. I wish it actually felt as simple as that! So if any of you want to share how *you've* handled these kinds of fears & hesitation, I'd really love to hear what's worked for you - I could use some more tools for this particular toolkit. Suggestions, anyone?
