Please be conscious if you protest this weekend that there are feds at the protest. They look like you and they sound like you, not like Steve Buscemi in that one clip with the skateboard. Thinking you can spot them is self delusion. Nobody you haven’t met needs to know your last name.

the font I was trying out here was too squished together for the comic, but I didn't notice until I flattened the whole thing& exported it because I was working on a canvas size way larger than what I normally draw in l m a o 🫠

Three indie games, three different takes on a digital nightmare. While Proximate, Without a Dawn, and Dead Letter Dept. differ in their approaches, the takeaway is the same: our very perception of the world has been warped by systems outside our control. youtu.be/0zxQ9YAzy00

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

especially since there's this element of indulgence or favoritism that crassus seems to have for publius, which may have played a role in crassus' decision to plan an invasion of parthia. god. I'd love to get into marcus jr's head about it

KATABAY! @ getting coffee @katabay.bsky.social · 8d

god it's been a hot minute since I've drawn the brothers crassi, there's a funny little implication in plutarch that pins the blame of carrhae on publius instead of it being the exclusive fault of his father and god what I wouldn't give for the surviving brother's thoughts on it all

there’s some thought about cicero’s influence on a doomed generation of romans rattling around in here but mostly it’s about getting a little revenge before decay sets in <3

antony arrives, fulvia gets ready to stab cicero’s tongue to pieces with her hairpin & crassus jr is invited to join the party because I’ve written a whole arc filled with grief and resentment and miserable brother stuff just for crassus jr because he's my favorite. RIP to publius lmao
