I have been making my dumb life from drawing my little guys and stuff for more than 15 years now and I would like to continue to and you can help...

A screen print featuring head shots of 8 soviet dogs which were sent to orbit from 1957 to 1966, all surrounding the original canine cosmonaut Laika. A red star and banner at the top reads 'Soviet Space Dogs' next to illustrations of two different orbital capsules used in the program. All text is in Russian. An oil painting of a red human skull with a bright orange outline against a collage of '80s Japanese wrestling magazine pages. Picture of wrestlers, wrestling, and a lot of Japanese text, presumably about wrestling. A digital illustration of a spectral owl, with cephalopod arms where its legs would have been. The owl has two arrows embedded in its ghostly body. There is a stylized human skull tied to the top of its head which also has an arrow in it. Night sky, a bare tree, clouds, and a full moon are the background. A black t-shirt with an image of a Black Crowned Night Heron: a medium-sized bird with a whitish chest/belly, dark blue-black wing tops and crown, a black spearlike bill, red eyes, and proportionally long yellow legs with long toes, slightly webbed standing on a stylized rock, with a green rushing river and blue sky behind. An actual bejeweled black crown is suspended over the bird's head and a golden beam of light is coming from within it down onto the regal heron. All this is within an elaborate frame rendered to look like patinated wrought iron. As part of the frame, arcing over the bird's head on either side of the crown it reads BLACK CROWNED, and below the birds feet are the words NIGHT HERON.

Me at the mercy of a new year
6 DEA agents with their faces pixelated out because they are fucking cowards standing around as Maduro in white socks, black slides, dark sweatpants, a cobalt blue hoodie and a dark beanie is made to sit on a chair. He is giving double thumbs up with his handcuffed hands and is not exactly NOT smiling. He looks cool.

A ball of puffy inflated letters forming five words. Each word is a different color for legibility purposes and streams of color are running out of the letters onto those below and dripping off the roughly spherical mass. The entire thing reads ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

Digital illustration based on the Night on Bald Mountain sequence from Fantasia (1940). Chernobog, a black and purple horned demon with huge bat wings is at center. He is gigantic, seated within the peak of the titular mountain with flames rising up around his waist. His wings are outstretched across the greenish-blue swirling sky and he is waving his arms around to direct the howling winds and spooks and ghosts to do his bidding. Some of these apparitions surround a swirl of ghostly lettering reading ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

There seems to be an implied belief in all this that there isn’t going to be any military pushback or armed resistance in Venezuela which is a weird assumption considering the entire 21st century

Drawing this motivated me sufficiently to make my own lemon pig
My actual lemon pig. I don’t have cloves around so his eyes are the round black ends of stick pins.

I understand everyone's urging for calls and emails but any elected official who doesn't think this is bad without being told shouldn't expect I will vote for them in any eventuality

Overall not a movie I think is very good, but I think about the ending of Alex Garland’s ‘Civil War’ movie pretty often.

Kurt Russell as Snake Plissken in Escape From New York. He’s got long hair, stubble, an eye patch, wearing a very beat up leather jacket. He’s sitting in a leather arm chair saying ‘I don't give a fuck about your war or your president.’

A pinup-style illustration of a lady who happens to have a guillotine for a torso. There are arms in short blue and white-striped sleeves extending from the sides of the guillotine frame, one is holding an empty basket and the other is holding up two fingers in a 'victory' sign. Below the hole where heads go sides she is wearing a short, pleated, dark blue skirt and her legs, covered in gartered nylons are curled up under her with the skirt riding just high enough to offer a glimpse of pink garters and ruffled underwear. A discarded crown is upside down behind her.
