I am a queer coparenting mama to Dickens Jr. Doodler by day, 911 dispatcher by night. All my favorite shows look better on Tumblr. I am two years and 450K words deep into constructing a fanfic called Ages and I’m never giving up on it. Bering & Wells.
Ok, but Hanson was just like a gateway drug for baby queers in the late ’90s who didn’t realize or weren’t ready to admit yet that they liked girls, so that you could defend (sorta) the magazine photos in your locker against the cool kids who were all ‘but they look like GIRLS!’, right?
I really love your art style in these comics. It is really cute but covering more serious/heavy topics and it just balances really well. I look forward to hearing more of your story!

Hanson for sure was THE most lesbian way to have a dude crush in the ’90s!
For some reason I always thought that was Antonio Sabado Jr.

Mini~me(s) won’t have a rock, but a balloon, thanks to you! <3
I’m pretty sure for awhile in junior high I thought at least one Hanson WAS a girl, so…
