Hi! Nice to meet you. I like to make stuff.

I made a library of zines, and also, some zines!

jkzinelibrary.carrd.co

I "sell" some of my art in exchange for donations to Project HOPE:

offeringstable.carrd.co

I like reading books with people about important things:

We're not going back. We can't go back. "Back" doesn't exist anymore. "Back" is dead. We have to build a new thing, a thing that can win, and we have to win.

for world AIDS Day I want to shout out @meakoopa.bsky.social and his collaborators for including a sexually active HIV-positive character and mentions of PrEP in a superhero comic than ran for a couple years (i.e. not just a one-off). fucking necessary stuff and we don't see it enough ANYWHERE dude

Do you like my nature illustrations? Do you know what started my journey on them? How I learned to draw backgrounds and plants? By hiking through Wisconsin state parks and nature reserves. This shit is so fucking personal. Please show up.

Man, the live cam on Midway Atoll (Kuaihelani) is mindblowing right now if you're into Laysan albatrosses. You likely heard that Wisdom, at ~75 years old, returned to the nesting site in late November. Her mate showed up as well. 1/

I've had to explain to my kid that his textbooks direct him to research a bunch of things on-line pretty easily because they are from the Before Times.
It's funny how I don't see anybody say shit like "oh what you couldn't just Google that?" anymore because everybody knows Google is just AI soup now and who the shit knows what it'll tell you.

Some of y'all still got your lemon pigs!

We ritually burned ours and scavenged the ashes for the lucky pennies. (We earned those damn pennies, lemme tell you.)

Hate to know what 2025 would've been like WITHOUT them, yeesh.

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

My main achievements today were finding places to squeeze $100/mo out of the budget and not wandering into the woods to live in a glade.

Yayyy, it's #ArtAdventCalendar time again! I had a blast taking part last year and found so many cool artists to follow. ☃️ For Day 1, here is a little gremlin gardener made from paper mache and wire, painted with acrylics!

First post for #ArtAdventCalendar is my only finished cross stitch piece for 2025. Based on a painting in the Museum of Modern Art.

The Benoit Blanc movies work because they know what you want out of a detective:

Someone who is weird as hell but morally strong and, by the end of the story, we've learned nothing about them except that they're still weird as hell and morally strong.

I went to a craft reuse place this weekend and there were barrels of white glue with a big old industrial looking pump to fill your own container and I can’t stop thinking about it. It was beautiful.

Wrecking young people's reading, writing & analytical skills during their formative years is an economic imperative for AI companies. For many of us who learned these things without AI, slop can't pass for news or entertainment. Destroying standards is essential to the industry's growth & survival.

If you ever hear about me caught up in some messy intrigue know it is a lie.

I do not have that kind of energy.

It's so fucking infuriating to see the effect that AI is having on artists' ability to make a living.

It doesn't have to be this way.
I'm really gutted about this. I spent over ten years building my website, it's what launched my writing career. But between AI hijacking all my traffic, literally, traffic from searches is almost 0 now, and my host raising fees to be hundreds of dollars for the year, I just can't anymore.
