Feeling despair at the world and something that no bullshit made me feel a little better was giving ten bucks to support someone’s work on Patreon. Not that it’s a big deal but being able to go “oh I like this, I want more of this in the world” made me feel like I had .00000001% control of things.

honestly hate that every time there's an industry bad actor, lists of "works by marginalized authors to support instead" start circulating like it's a moral obligation to be done out of guilt, & it's crickets every other day of the year. my art is not to be taken in as a reactionary measure

Awwright, 23 in my BIPOC Comics & Webcomics #StarterPack to start with!

If you're a moot and I missed you cause I didn't know you were BIPOC *or* I didn't know you were working on a comic, @ or DM me. Do the same if you're in, and would prefer to be removed for any reason. 🫡

I got the physical copy of the Taylor Fanzine I took part in last year! Here are some photos of the spread I illustrated. I illustrated her biography or through the eras of her life! Really fun project and amazing artists involved.

the average apartment in America is $2000 and people COULD afford that, if it weren't for needing to have proof of 3x the rent just to move in. It's easier to get a roommate, have relatives move in, and move in with a partner, than it is to prove you make $6000

This is why mask bans are suddenly being proposed. If you’re in a place where that’s happening and you think we should prioritize public and personal health and freedom over expanding the powers of the police state then please do let your representatives know why the freedom to mask matters to you

I did some layout analysis for different comics, and then I figured they’d probably be helpful for other people too. It’s really interesting how cartoonists can use different methods to create a sense of subjectivity or wrongness or slow time.

Did you know that tomorrow, June 24 2024 is national make a terrible comic day? You don’t have to make comics every hour or a multi-page story, you just have to string a few panels together. It’s mandatory especially if you haven’t drawn anything for yourself lately and you miss it
