Someone stated that I post too frequently about the Oxford comma.

I found their comment to be impudent, offensive, and untrue.

Day 28 of Things I Don't Usually Draw.
back in high school and college I used to do a lot of studies off artists I loved. Alphonse Mucha was always hovering in the top 10 of that list.
I haven't done anything like that in a while so I thought I'd revisit it. Behold The Dance in all its glory.

I could do more raking to please the neighborhood aesthetic or simply wait for the snow to mask my shame and delay my task by weeks or months.

One option is easier.

Another piece I finished a while back, but I love it so much. It’s made from very precious mouth blown glasses that I am likely to never see again once I run out. They’re so rich and clear, with such perfect textures. The lead lines in this are the fold lines from the paper crane hanging above!

I'm doing another print run of these "Biology is Bigger than Binaries" shirts!

Back, quite literally, by popular demand. Bullying works, sure, but so does a bunch of nice cutie patooties politely asking!

Order 'em now, I'll mail 'em in early November.

I was scheduled to moderate Kate McKinnon’s book event this week at the Library of Congress and it’s not happening because of the shutdown. I think this is sad for all of us honestly.
ANIMAL KINGDOM except it's just Kate McKinnon holding a toothpick like a cigarette and explaining how various species fuck.

And the thing is … one reason *not* to gradually dull your brain into a barely sentient electrolytic jar of pickles is that sometimes … the WiFi doesn’t work. You don’t want to end up in a thunderstorm with a box of cereal and a gallon of milk screaming into the dark, “WHAT DO I DO FIRST?”
Go buy a more robust WiFi system, Kyle.

It won't solve the AI problem, but at least you'll have great WiFi.

Hi guys, did you already know there are competitions for window tinting? With better commentators than most of the tennis matches I’ve watched on ESPN? (Low bar I know)
