I’m 39 and I’m AuDHD. My mom, the main person who really got me, suddenly passed away when I was 23. In more recent years, my dad has been one of my crucial support people; he helps me process my emotions out loud, he helps me brainstorm ways to approach something that’s surrounded by junkyard dogs of emotions, all sorts of stuff
Today, I wanted to show him that this one artist I like, she had made some art that was really encouraging. (The Latest Kate makes cute cartoonish art with encouraging sentences on there.) The way I worded it was “There’s this artist I like, and she makes encouraging memes.”
My dad gave his typical cornball smirk and said “make a meme. Put a character waving, and have the text say ‘Hi. My name is Arthur, and I’m encouraging.’”
My dad’s usually funnier than that, but I couldn’t pass up the chance to share a meme my dad made ❤️
Having fun isn’t hard when you’ve got a library card, and Arthur is encouraging 👋

I love The Latest Kate’s art!!! They’re always so beautiful and I can find one to match my emotions for each day.
Your dad is amazing and the relationship you have together is so special. Arthur is a great choice because there’s so many other images you can use and build off.
