Have You Tried Exercising? They said it like a cure, as if sweat could straighten bone, as if willpower could uncoil pain. But this spine tells a different story, years of quiet wars beneath the skin, vertebrae and bones locking with time, a body learning the language of pain. I have tried everything, movement, stillness, surrender, and still it never leaves. This is not weakness or refusal, but the shape of endurance, the body’s quiet defiance, the art of staying alive.

I’ve been waiting for the next Georgie book, and The Plot Solidifies jumps straight into the story without missing a beat. It’s great to have the gang back together, though not everyone is where they used to be. Hayler and Cute Guy seem to have moved on, while Troylene are stronger and more inseparable than ever. Georgie herself appears to have love interests, maybe even a chance at something real this time, but as always, nothing is ever simple in her world. The pacing feels

“Sephy was an extension of a drawing I had done previously and was now creating out of clay. The process was more deliberate and controlled despite working through a chaotic emotion (anger). I tried not to get frustrated with the “imperfections” and differences from the original drawing. But anger isn’t precisely as we wish it would be, we can only control it to the best of our ability, Ferris was an organic creation. My hands molded him as I talked without any planning going

“It’s just good to be able to put paint on a canvas without like, that internal editor/critic making a mess of my confidence and motivation. And it’s great because I’m experimenting with techniques, refining others - having a huge amount of fun! - and just...creating art for the sake of it. Very freeing and I’m so grateful for you and the space to simply create without judgement!” This participant gave me permission to share #transartist #transart #arttherapy #artstherapy #a

I was in the middle of reading when Shōga jumped right onto the book. He seemed to notice that one of the characters looked just like him, the same golden colour in the fur. Maybe that’s why he decided to join in for storytime and make sure we didn’t miss the resemblance.

“This is all of the different parts of me flowing through my body, interweaving. The light colours are Self-energy, and different colours represent different parts. At the start, I felt like there was a hole in my heart, so I felt I had to cut this part out. Then it felt more correct that it was in the pit of my stomach. Later, I drew a yellow colour linking the heart to the stomach, making it flow more freely back to the heart.” This participant gaff me consent to share #pup

This collage is a protest against the expectation of passive peace in the face of oppression. Set against the bright lights of a stage, the figure turns away, refusing the performance of compliance. Their stance is quiet but unyielding, a refusal to play along with society’s demand for silence and submission. The cut-out words resist the pressure to “be all peace, love and mungbeans” when injustice is pressing down. It captures the tension between society’s demand for complia

This has been the best book I have read in 2025. Double Exposure: A Life Visible in Two Genders is honest, tender, and deeply thoughtful, staying with you long after you close the pages. The writing invites reflection on identity, love, and the human need to be seen fully. It offers insight into a very unique life, showing resilience, authenticity, and the complexity of living openly, giving a vivid sense of the challenges and rewards of being fully seen and understood.

“I decided to do a traditional landscape, presented in a way that is completely different depending on how you physically approach the work. For abled folk, they may not see the clouds as dark because they view the image square on and standing, but from a wheelchair the clouds are more impactful. I also used acrylic medium to create tactile cues for people with visual impairments. The goal is to challenge the viewer to engage with the work from multiple perspectives as an exe

The newest member of the sensory garden is Senecio candicans, Angel Wings, a striking perennial whose soft, silver-green leaves invite touch with their velvety texture, offering gentle, grounding moments for all the senses. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been enchanted by the way its subtle, serene presence adds a sense of calm and visual softness to the garden, a quiet reminder of nature’s ability to soothe and nurture, filling the space with a gentle, comforting energy. #sen
