My car tells me that it’s 37 degrees Celsius outside. In Fahrenheit that roughly works out to be TOO %#£*ING HOT!

Seeing “Bluesky is an echo chamber” repeatedly feels metatextual.

You should read this story.
Hey Bluesky friends! I want to tell you about another comic I wrote called THE DAYS! This is a one-shot surreal slice of life about a family going through the first few days of grief. It’ll make you cry and crave lasagna! Featuring art from the immensely talented @uncannyzuck.bsky.social!

Since things are picking up here on Bluesky, this seems like a good time to share a comic. Check out Food/Love, an intimate story about love from me and @jakebartok.bsky.social that you can read on @globalcomix.bsky.social

Seeing all these Starter packs, I thought I'd create my own of some cool accounts I like and think you should all follow.

I’m still an absolute ice hockey newbie. Just heard the commentator say how many career fights for a player. Is that really a stat that they track? Do they track wins too? #iceHockey

If you're not reading The Pedestrian from @joeyesposito.bsky.social and @seanvongorman.bsky.social
out from @magmacomix.bsky.social then you should get on it. They're cooking up something fun and thought provoking in equal measure. You can read it on @globalcomix.bsky.social
or in physical.

Using one of your comic panels, show us where you are mentally.

Like most I've given up on Tales From the Quarantine. But I tell you, I've almost got my money's worth out of it following the drama. I do wonder though, why does that guy keep posting updates? At this point it would be better to pocket your ill-gotten money and keep your mouth shut.

Hey, you! This is a literal (and ham fisted) call to action! Our Kickstarter has 49 backers, only 5 hours to go, and is so close to a stretch goal! Who is going to be backer 50? It could be you!

Every October I think I'll spookify my name with something like Gary "we need to talk" Proudley, or Gary "out of coffee" Proudley, or Gary "the toilet water rising at a party" Proudley. Y'know, really scary things. But nope. Gary is 75% Gory anyway, so old faithful it is.

Is Kickstarter rough for comics right now? I have one going, but it'll be fine. We only need $160AUD over ten days. We did set a modest target. I feel I've seen campaigns recently fail, or only just meet targets when they should have romped in. Is it just my perception, or have you felt the same?
