Hello everyone old and new, welcome back if you’re a regular, welcome in if you’re new. For them who don’t know; I’m Jack and I’m an illustrator who’s queer and has plans to write things one day. Until the day I get my hands on paper and pens I am writing a blog on being nuerodiverse and a sparks fan. Sharing my love and other people’s love of sparks, and combining it with nuerodiverse traits. I didn’t study psychology so all my views are just watching and reading into people. I am currently (still) on the autism waiting list, this series has helped me open up about my passions and stories from past and present. So come along for today’s ride, bring your favourite snacks or drinks. Because today I’m discussing special interests. Before I delve deep I will explain to you what a special interest is. A special interest is something you’ve fallen love with for years, you collect the items around it,  maybe develop your personality or style around it and you get happy and excited when y...

 Hello everyone, newcomers and regular readers. I am back after recovering from a nasty cold and burnout at the same time to share a new post. Today I decided to discuss one of my and most fans favourite parts of sparks, their repetition.  (This is the band sparks) Sparks have a diverse range of music, from glam rock to new wave/electronica to modern pop. They frolic freely through genres and sprinkle joy and fun wherever they land. I discovered them in 2021 so I’m a very new fan in some regards but I heard their song This Town Ain’t Big Enough and was transfixed, they sounded almost like true aliens of pop which David Bowie discussed in his Ziggy Stardust era, only these aliens were real. I had heard the song before my true opening into the fandom as I watched the film England is Mine during my college years (2019-2020) and always visualised the song as a funfair atmosphere since. The music is repetitive in the use of a piano riff and the guitars holding their hands and mingl...

 Good evening/morning once again, you join me very tired after a long week. I turned 21 recently, which was a huge milestone. My dad got me a badge machine so soon I’ll be making badge packs to sell and begin my art business. Anyways, I decided to do an essay on being LGBTQ+ and a sparks fan. So sit cosily, drink some water or eat a snack as we dive into this topic.  (teaser for todays post) I begin by sharing a photo of me. Why? Because I’m part of this community.  This is me. I’m a trans nonbinary person on the asexual spectrum. I have always told people I’m queer as many people don’t understand my sexuality; I’m demisexual which is where I feel attraction to them I’m friends with or trust. I won’t upset people with the trauma details here but I’ve had many times where people have taken advantage of me and left me confused about myself for a long time. I’m also gender diverse. I love dressing the way I like, my favourite thing to wear is a long flowy skirt I found in a ...
