Quick self portrait of just not moving with my cat, Chalita, in the AC all afternoon yesterday (and really, every hot day). We just lay there and listen to audiobooks, it's not bad.

My partner and I both got to hang out with Linney a few times, and weirdly, never once asked about her name! After we heard the origin, we realized that we had each separately always guessed she was named for Carl Linnaeus? Which would be pretty weird!! John Linnell is a much better namesake. 😆

A fun fact about today is: kicking the British Empire out is the most popular reason to have a national holiday. Something like 50 countries celebrate it!

Agreed! chipmunks are super dang cute and I'd love to see them in Chicago. Niles's folks' house has a huge yard with lots of trees and prairie natives for them to feel comfortable in.

I made a Terrible Comic (about squinnies!) for #makeaterriblecomicday2024 last night!
I cleaned it up a bit this morning so it's easier to read, but crucially, still pretty terrible.

Thank you!! I was thinking of scanning it so it’s easier to read maybe? But it’s so nice to have an excuse to draw something and not care if it’s perfect.

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

DES MOINES! Yesterday I visited the art center, ate a grilled cheese at Cheese Bar, had 2 scoops at Black Cat ice cream, went up to EMC overlook, scooped the loop, and marveled at the view from the Capital building.
Today at 2:30 I’ll be at Beaverdale books!

A sad fact about these drawings is they were made for what was going to be a Chicago-food-themed street festival that would have happened in spring 2020. :( A happy fact about them is that I had a super delicious Chicken Vesuvio the other night at Club Lucky in Bucktown. :)
