I reach out for comics stuff when I’m working doubles because I just want that serotonin to hit a few times when I pull my phone out of my left back pocket at a job I’m embarrassed I still have

I would post crap to my friends on the platforms that are fun and occasionally enjoy some short form video content on the toilet but my phone would otherwise live on its charger in whatever room where I am not
Hey artist/creator/writer/etc people: if tomorrow you were guaranteed a very comfortable living the rest of your life, how would that affect your relationship to social media?

Working at a bar you know to expect ceaseless action and aggression on the high holidays- Christmas, thanksgiving, new year’s. Those lesser sleeper holidays (st Patrick’s, Valentine’s, mother’s and father’s) are predictable only in the certainty of their chaos, arrhythmic waves of childish anger

“M is for…”
My Boyfriend is a Bear by Pamela Ribon and Cat Farris
…don’t laugh. This book is actually incredibly charming. Don’t underestimate it, because it is such a genuine story about love, relationships, and their ups and downs and pressures, and that special feeling of finding your “one”

Taken after seeing the witchiest feet in the showers, seemingly both dry and wet, discolored like unto pus, long broken nails, bruised and aggravated nail beds, clacking on the tiles at Mount Scott community center

I am subscribed to Donald Trump's donor mailing list despite having never donated to his campaign, and it's remarkable how much they come off like someone trying to catfish your grandparent into thinking donald trump is their personal friend

Another great @floatingworld.bsky.social find: a collection of writings, interviews and media by and about Hayao Miyazaki from 1997-2008. This motherfucker wrote poems about his world that appear nowhere in the finished media just to understand how this world talks to itself

I deleted Instagram from my phone one week ago and it feels great. I still have the app, only usable on my iPad at this point, and I worry that less engagement will drop my already platform-unfriendly media even further down the tight algorithmic spiral, but using Instagram is thoroughly miserable

I work at an old man bar that opens before noon so every time I see Donald Trump calling a Spanish speaker horrible, insisting no one can understand what they’re saying or that they’re unamerican, I just mimetically shift sideways through time and space and do my glass cleaning idle animation

My colleague Mark Molchan is going deep with the graphite again. @markmolchan.bsky.social
Said I had to finish this by Friday. Still dreaming about Boris Vallejo, Greg Ruth, and John Picacio’s pencil work.

Send help was fun as hell. We haven’t seen gnarly Raimi in a while, and the two lead performances are hideously, hilariously undignified. It’s too long and has that classic Raimi element where he gets near the end, don’t want to stop having fun and just kind of peters out. Go see mid budget movies
