Boston Pride is just around the corner! Our t-shirt will celebrate this year’s parade theme, “Moving Forward: Strong, Proud, United.”

At Fenway, we’re reminded that we’re stronger as a community—and that we’ll move forward together.

Want a t-shirt, other Fenway swag, and a great time with other Fenway supporters? Celebrate pride with us!

Congratulations to all the new Stonehill grads today. Not that you asked my advice, but here’s my 2010 commencement speech. I would say many of the same things to you all today.

"Designers: Beware of emails that say the first draft is “perfect.” It means your massive revisions are coming one at a time."

My newest portrait illustration is king of the dude selfies, my friend Tom.

The self-portrait that started it all is here.

Remembering the Shmoo: a face only a mother could love and no one could resist.

So… I recently gained 300+ followers overnight (weird). I thought I’d introduce myself.

How are you doing?

Another piece of street art from my recent trip to Berlin. My brother thinks it looks like me, but I’m not sure I could pull this look off.

Interrupting our regularly scheduled design porn and drag queen gifs for this important social messaging:

fenwayhealth:

Today is Give Out Day, a national giving event in support of nonprofits serving the LGBTQ community. Each donation is a chance for your favorite LGBTQ organization to win additional money.

At Fenway, your donation helps us:

Be the largest provider of out-patient HIV/AIDS care in New England

Care for nearly 800 transgender patients as part of our growing Trans Health program

Do ground-breaking research in LGBT health and HIV/AIDS at The Fenway Institute, home of the nation’s first community-based HIV research program and the first federally-funded research center to focus specifically on sexual minority population research.

Come out for LGBT health; give here. If you’re not able to contribute financially, why not donate a reblog, tweet, or post to help get the word out?
