Well “occasionally something edible happens” is now the official title of my garden, so thank you! 😂

4) but also I pay as little as possible for my garden! Build everything outta bamboo, get seedlings from friends who grew too many, seed swap, hit seed libraries, etc etc. The time sink is still outlandish vs food output, but it gets me outside and brings me enormous joy, so. :)

As a comic artist who had an art director for one cover*, hard agree. *it ruled.

Oh thank god there was a glitch in the drone! (She was still injured, but only in the ankle, she’s okay.)

I know we’re only 4 days into October but I made my first jaunt into town to marvel at the ‘ween decorations and was not disappointed.

(2/2)

Honestly, I would eat human if it was safe & ethical.

Drawing: a license plate belonging to me indicates: “DONOR - ORGAN” and “DONOR - BODY MEAT”.

I wonder, if it was legal, would human be used to cure hunger? (Drawing: at a soup kitchen, a woman in a hair net scoops up soup from a vat and asks “Human & rice?” to a man with a bowl, who replies wearily “Again?”)

Or… (Drawing: a well-dressed server at a fancy restaurant says to two wealthy-looking patrons: “Tonight’s human was a kale-obsessed cartoonist..” A woman says, excitedly, “OOH” while her date says, “EXOTIC!”)

Here’s a freebie from my daily comics stash ($2/mo on patreon.com/dcorsetto)! Tell me how you REALLY feel about… The Forbidden Meat. 🫢 (1/2…)

I’m often mistaken for a vegetarian. (Drawing: a guy goes “ta-da!” after bringing me to a restaurant called Meatless Cuisine. I exclaim “Oh!” and think to myself, “I hope they have gluten-free food.”)

The truth is, while I’ve lowered my meat & dairy significantly… (drawing: I’m chopping mushrooms and singing “mushroom, MUSHROOM!”)

… I have no problem eating an animal if I know it wasn’t factory farmed.

Drawing: a farmer’s market vendor tells me gently, “We HUG each pig to death.” I coo in reply, “AWW! Two, please.”

Sir I’m pleased to inform you that you are CORRECT.

Danielle Corskeleton @dcorsetto.bsky.social · 14d

Heehee I love you and your stink so much! 🌮

Our local studio tour is in November so we’re all updating our photos for promotional materials. I submitted four to choose from, which is now a test to see how many of my fellow tour members know that the cider/urinal/plant one is the most accurate expression of myself.
