Also, not naming any causes for this, but I had a dream where we were moving out of our apartment (typical) and I had to move boxes of Transformers toys I had no idea why I even had (not typical).

When you're in the parking lot in your car listening to John Payne-era Asia at 4:55 in the morning because it feels too damn early to go inside the office.

One of my big regrets was printing the first Newshounds book on glossy paper. It feels so massively wrong.
The current big drama in the increasingly stupid western comic book world: DC released cult classic title Warlord on a (more expensive) paperstock that matches original newsprint, giving a more accurate coloring. Collectors are review bombing in outrage because they think glossy = more expensive.

The responses I got to this were staggering and supportive. I'm overwhelmed. Thank you all so much.
I've got two that are nearly done and a third that has an ADORABLE image I can't wait to draw. After that, I'll take a break -- either work on the book some more or do other things.
Thanks again. :)

Ha ha! Never mind! Turns out there wasn't any room for it! Problems just solve themselves, don't they?
Okay, I've come to a compromise with my "do I draw a spiral staircase or not?" dilemma. The answer is yes, but in the background, so that it's implied that the character in question descended it ten seconds ago.

Quote this with what you have accomplished in 2025, no matter how big or small
Reading & writing has kept me alive this year.
Somehow, it’s been my most productive year as an author.
Here’s a guide to what I’ve published in 2025, in case you’ve lost track.

Well, I guess it's just as well I was only ever aware of her as a punchline for 60s sitcoms.
Will be interesting to see who lionizes the five times convicted for inciting racial hatred Bardot. But hey, she loved animals.

Brigitte Bardot's 30 years of sympathy for the far right
Convicted five times for racist remarks, the actress – whose foundation announced her death on Sunday, December 28 – remained one of the only French celebrities to openly embrace far-right views.

I did some work today, but the one-two punch of having to look up a reference online and eating dinner put a stop to my productivity. Something about the digestive process makes me want to do silly Hanna-Barbera character art, I guess.
But I'm okay with it. I have all day tomorrow to do more.

I reposted another post from him, but I'll do it again. Really great guy whose spouse inspired the happy-go-lucky spirit of Bijou. If anyone has a few spare coins to toss in his direction, it'd be appreciated.
I hate but have to admit, until my benefits kick in, or I land a new job... I kind of need help
I'm on a diet, I could stand to lose another 70-80lbs and basically coffee and popcorn fuel me, but I have Cecil and four kids to think about. We -HAVE- about two weeks of "oh god, Pasta? AGAIN?" so they're NOT going to be hungry, no matter what. Just... even $1 means a lot right now.

And if I may be petty and bitter for a moment (oh, hey, I have a card) it is irritating and angering that people will STILL throw money at a piece of excrement like JKR when I feel my work is just as good and possibly even better. There. I said it.

You know what, folks, let's make this 1000 followers. This is one of the best comics I've seen in ages, and this artist needs way more love. I also recommend the first book, "Tough As Nails."

So Tim and I have been shamed for never having seen "The Prisoner" (with Patrick McGoohan) so we watched the first episode tonight. Spoiler: The first Number Two left the Village to get married, start a bee farm, and then take in a nervous wreck pop singer as a guest after her doctor recommended it.
