My sweet little idiot has bad poops, so she's going to her first vet appointment next week 💔
This is one of those moments where I should probably consider opening up commissions 🙃

Fun fact, indie booksellers are always happy to order books, even if they don't have them in stock, for you to pick up in-store or have shipped. Heck, you can even ask faraway indie bookstores to ship a book, or you can purchase through bookshop.org and support indies across the US and the UK!

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.
We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

Comments fuel artists and creators. They help fledgling projects grow because other people see them and spread the word or interact.
We definitely cherish every single comment we’ve gotten on the comic on any of our platforms - especially the website.
Keep them coming. 🥰

It would be extremely cool if a bunch of people called payment processors over Black Friday weekend to ask why they're telling people what they can and can't buy with their own money. This holiday season, give the gift of calling payment processors over Black Friday weekend
Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls.
What you’re doing is working. Call MC & Visa.

"How do I find my art style?"
I've been a creative pro for 10 years, this is the number 1 question I get.
They want creative work to be recognizably theirs in an instant-- like Miyazaki or Wes Anderson movies.
This is the formula for art style, it's much simpler than you think.

Legit tho— we don't know if you don't tell us.
Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

Woke: DOGE was specifically constructed in a way to avoid accountability partially by zombifying the USDS which still exists as an entity
Bespoke: Dead or not, there needs to be a blue ribbon committee and a massive internal cybersecurity review to root out all the damage.

Comics: taught myself to read from comics, then smooshed my love of story telling & drawing comics together.
Animals: My love of animals got shot into overdrive after my first ball python. Now I'm volunteering at a zoo once a week, & working towards teaching proper reptile husbandry to public.
