This was drawn a few years ago but might as well be apt for how I'm feeling this #YearOfTheHorse. Riding #PudgyHorse onto a pyre of my sketchbooks and materials. 🙃

Obvious nod to Arthur Rackham's 1911 illustration of Brünhilde's immolation scene from Götterdämmerung.

The ‘bel’ in ‘decibel’ is for Alexander Graham Bell.

Since the ‘B’ in 'dB' is a name-derived unit, it is capitalized when abbreviated.

Hewburn Greenidge made MB history 3 times: in 1913 when he was the first Black student to enroll at the MB Medical College, in 1920 when he became the first Black graduate of any of the U of M's colleges, and became MB's first Black doctor!

I thought last year's #AEWGrandSlam was better than the 2026 version, but this year was still a very solid, entertaining show.

We're spoiled as fans. We have great shows or matches on the regular online or weekly TV.

People will complain, but it's a great time to be a wrestling fan.

Ugh, I know this well.
I’ve seen three folks I came up with in the world of gig posters using it, and it’s disappointing to say the least.
man it sucks to see illustration people you've been friends with in the past/respected using ai reference. it's weird. like you're hand copying all that gobbeldygook with an artist's education why can't you tell its gobbeldygook

The last time I saw that album with its controversial (and taken out of circulation due to a lawsuit) cover at Into the Music, it was going for $150 CDN.
On this day, 35 years ago in 1991, TAD's 8-Way Santa was released on @subpop.bsky.social records.

I went to art school...

I had no clue this is what people meant by "warm ups". Like, a whole routine? Each part specific and functional? Dang.

Probably would have less "forgot how to draw" days if I did these every time. I'm gonna try it.

Gimme a break, the arsonist is now dismayed that all the fires he started are burning out of control?
Jason Kenney says separtation has been "de-stigmatized" by current UCP. The job now is to show what a horrible idea it is. If he were still premier, we'd have a government standing up to separatist leaders. Column. tinyurl.com/yz55wh3n #ableg #abpoli #cdnpol #yyc #yeg
Braid: Jason Kenney fiercely battles separatism — unfortunately, not as premier
Jason Kenney has emerged as a fierce opponent to separatism. If he were still premier this would be a very different government.

I had a kidney stone attack yesterday.
Woohooo!!!
Shoutout to the folks at HSC who took care of me for the 10 or so hours that I was there. The last time I had an attack (nearly six years ago), I drew this several weeks afterward.

CTV Winnipeg aired a neat piece about "lonely houses" in Winnipeg and elsewhere. You can check out the video or written version at their website: www.ctvnews.ca/winnipeg/art...
Survival of the stubborn: The little-known histories of Winnipeg’s holdout homes
We all know Darwin’s theory of survival of the fittest, often misquoted by stale memes and bad motivational posters and a certain hack reporter - those who last are those who adapt.
