Here’s a fun vow to make with yourself:

Every time you're on social media, end by following a link off-site—and poke around for a second. 

Bonus points if it's a site not owned by shareholders or angel investors.

They came for crowds, holiday energy & retail deals. #BlackFriday at Liberty Tree Mall, 1995—kids on the carousel as parents hustle & shop. 🛍️🎠

This 90s time capsule was preserved on the @InternetArchive by the original videographer.

Found some time-lapse video of me painting an ungodly number of little blue flowers at @helioscopepdx.bsky.social - the only way I get through tedious things like this is because I love my friends there and they are infinitely entertaining while I work.

I recently told a studio mate at Helioscope that I didn’t know how to color. And I meant that I don’t really have a reliable approach to it. But looking at some of my really old color work I do kinda miss it.

As a cartoonist who self-fulfilled a kickstarter, this video is fascinating, re-traumatizing, and inspiring. Watch @jpcoovert.bsky.social manage 1,700 orders of his TTRPG bundle from his dining room? I feel that pain and that final victory.

Fun list. Out of these, I’ve only gotten to really dive into Daggerheart and the Tales of the Valliant Game Masters guide but I like them both a lot.

Fellow publishers are taking financial damage from unpaid bills from library distributor Baker & Taylor, who are closing down.

About Comics had no exposure here (haven't yet found our way into the library market), but it's a good time to buy a book from, say, @ironcircuscomics.bsky.social

Buy affordable original art from real life artists! I've got a couple inked pieces in here for just $30, along with other illustrations from my @helioscopepdx.bsky.social studiomates.
Apologies for so much etsy posting, but it’s a big part of how we operate. Anyhow, there is a TON of original art on sale rn for pre-Black Friday. Go take a look! helioscopepdx.etsy.com?section_id=6...

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.
