An hour and 11-minute long mix of nothing but D'Angelo live tracks from various shows during the Brown Sugar and Voodoo eras. It's so well done. Also downloadable.

H'lo!
I’m Allan Lorde, a Canadian illustrator from Treaty 1/Winnipeg, MB. I've been doing this nearly 25 years. Holler at me if you need a poster or album cover done...or anything else you think I'd kick ass at! Let's talk!

A cover for a playlist called Garage Rawk Headache No. 99. Under the jagged title is a man holding his head in anguish as lightning bolts are pointed at his dome. The background is made up of red and yellow solid blocks.

The single cover for rapper Nestor Wynrush's "Back & Shark" posse cut. Outstretched hands are catching a Trinidadian dish called bake and shark (flatbread, shark fillet, veggies, etc.) A blue and grey map of Trinidad & Tobago is in the background.

A poster for the now-defunct radio show The Psychedelic Soul Shack. In the foreground is a bloody brain on a yellow couch, and the brain is saying the name of the show.

A poster for The Urban Bakery's Boxed Party, featuring Amy Traphouse and several other DJs. Pictured is a light green dilapidated house with red Christmas lights against a darker green background.

Hey, Alaska's been hit by a typhoon and no one is talking about it. Indigenous towns are in need of aid. People are missing and the gov't is still shut down.

If any creators here are in affected areas, please drop links for aid.

I'd personally swap "Pepsi Zero Sugar" for "Coffee," but it wouldn't fit the syllabic scheme, and just "Pepsi" wouldn't be truthful.

Still, quite relatable.

Doctor Manitoba Canada Fact: It's Thanksgiving in Canada. A holiday that happens earlier than American Thanksgiving, because it's Canadian Thanksgiving, not American Thanksgiving - a distinction lost on many Americans who struggle to remember other places exist, and have their own holidays.

It Weighs You Down

Read more cartoons! #PoliCartoon
Help us make more! patreon.com/barry

This cartoon has nine panels, alternating between abstract panels of gray and black paint, and non-abstract drawings. Each abstract panel has a caption in plain white lettering.

PANEL 1

A cloudy field of gray paint, with a caption: AFTER

PANEL 2

A fat man is on an airplane, seated on the aisle; a thin woman with a scarf has paused next to his seat.

SCARF WOMAN: Oh God, do I have to sit next to him?

PANEL 3

CAPTION: A WHILE

PANEL 4

A laundromat. The same fat man we saw on the plane is folding laundry. Mounted high on the wall behind him is a TV showing a talk show.

Clinging to the fat man’s back is the woman’s word balloon from the airplane panel.

TV: Let’s face it, fat people choose to be like that!

PANEL 5

CAPTION: IT WEIGHS

PANEL 6

We see the fat man again, in a coffee shop. Behind his back, a thin man wearing a sleeveless shirt and jogging shorts, is holding up a finger as he makes a point.

There are now two word balloons clinging to the fat man’s back, the word balloon from the airplane panel, and the TV’s word balloon from the laundromat panel.

JOGGING SHORTS: …put the donuts down and get off the sofa now and then!

PANEL 7

CAPTION: YOU

PANEL 8

The same fat man lying limp on the floor, possibly unconscious, covered by a pile of word balloons from the previous three panels, topped off by a new balloon spoken by an off-panel voice.

OFF PANEL VOICE: You’d look so much better if you’d lose some weight.

PANEL 9

The caption is so far down in the panel that parts of the letters disappear below the bottom: DOWN

7 years ago today, I got hitched to @technobeanie.bsky.social! Doesn’t feel like a lot compared to our almost 16 years of being together, but we don’t do things in order around here (both our kids were at our wedding, ha)

❤️

A photo from our wedding. We’re standing on the sidewalk in front of an industrial brick building, under a large window. He’s wearing suspenders and a bow tie, and I’m wearing a white dress with gold cap boots.
