Hey, I'm going to be honest, I've had some rotten luck these last couple months. About three different projects got cancelled, so, if you need covers, pages, posters, album art, and you like my style, please consider hiring me.

Every person who comes out or lives their true selves in today's climate of scapegoating hate has more courage than many will ever know.

For real, though. Was at a conference this year and someone was saying how AI helps her write emails but it took her FORTY-FIVE MINUTES to get the prompt correct
people having to write entire bad novels just to generate one image, when artists can simply make stuff happen

YES, this is a gorgeous movie and a reminder to all of us in comics that you can push your colors harder. I tell my students honestly weekly--don't be afraid to color the way a character feels instead of whatever the local color is. EVERY ELEMENT can help communicate story, dirtbags! EVERYYYYY
Ran (1985)

Akira Kurosawa's epic retelling of Shakespeare's King Lear. A warlord's crimes come back to haunt him at the end of his life as he watches his family devour itself.

Hang every shot of this movie in the Louvre!

I have also been thinking about this
"In 2025, 40% of women aged 15 to 44 say they would move abroad permanently if they had the opportunity. The current figure is four times higher than the 10% who shared this desire in 2014, when it was generally in line with other age and gender groups."
Record Numbers of Younger Women Want to Leave the U.S.
The percentage of younger women in the U.S. who express a desire to migrate permanently has surged in the past decade.

We continue a conversation started during our Trektivism panel at STLV and cover a myriad of subjects including socialism, capitalism, and how to have hard conversations about those topics, all while building and relying on community. Thanks @chanda.blacksky.app for another stellar discussion 🖤

The Republican president is a pedophile who has doubled my healthcare costs and let scores of violent criminals out of jail. But a Democratic mayor-elect wants to make busses free in a city I don't live in. I have never felt more politically homeless.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

French Stewart, the guy from STARGATE?
I think everybody has a “Wallace Shawn from Young Sheldon” — my first one would probably be “Vincent Price, the guy who did the voice of Ratigan in The Great Mouse Detective”

Something cool I noticed reading through this classic THUNDERCATS collection is that the lettering (by Janice Chiang) always emphasizes the DER in "Thundera"
