Found my pen by the way. If anyone on here cares. That saga wrapped up happily.
My oldhead rage really comes to the fore when a piece of tech just stops being useful the moment one part stops working or is missing and not easy to replace (i.e. I lost my fucking tablet pen and i already tried buying a replacement and it's apparently not compatible)

Workshopping ideas for what to call this little language furry comic of mine. Kind of want it to be a pun. Like...Wagging Tails and Tongues or something. Tails, Tongues, and...Barking in Tongues? Like speaking in tongues? That makes it sound religious, though, doesn't it?

I will post one hot take for the day: Capitalism is a death cult. It's what enables the murder of our planet and the abuse of our children and fellow humans in general. It's not Democrats vs Republicans. It's capitalism vs humanity.

Been distracted by Cult of the Lamb lately, but shop should be live again tomorrow. No sticker pages yet and still working on my latest commission form. I struggle to keep it simple but I never know what to throw on it.

Oh, I also made a VGen account:

Oof just caught that I missed some disinfo in a post I reposted. Sorry about that! I normally fact check but was being sloppy. Here's the article that was screenshotted, with no misleading commentary.
As Springfield's 15,000 Haitians brace for deportations, local churches train to resist ICE
SPRINGFIELD, Ohio (RNS) — Over a year since Donald Trump and JD Vance spread falsehoods about the city's migrants eating pets, Haitians’ temporary protected status is set to run out Feb. 3.

Also hate "this is not about politics." Sorry people, you have to GROW UP. EVERY DAMNED THING IS POLITICAL. Everything. The word people are searching for is PARTISAN.

Working on zines while dealing with a bit of paranoia. Also, realizing I'm a horrible person. What revelations has 2026 given y'all so far?

Bumping this because I'm going to the post office tomorrow!
Hester passed in October 2025, but not before voting for Democratic Socialist Katie Wilson and expressing her outrage at the Trump administration. She was 98 years old and saw things clearly. If you want to read her story, check it out.
I'm very happy to announce that my #zine about my nana Hester, beloved matriarch and Holocaust survivor, is now available to purchase (US only). She believed strongly in spreading her story to educate about the dangers of bigotry and fascism. This zine is an attempt to carry on and honor her work.

This 8-page-long half-page zine recounts in detail the experience of my grandmother, Hester Kool (née Waas), Holocaust survivor. Hester passed in October 2025 at age 98, but she left behind a wealth o...
