I've adapted a bunch of classic nursery rhymes into comics. Here's the first one, Humpty Dumpty. #kidlit #kidlitart #nurseryrhyme

IMPORTANT reminder for when you print zines:

Set your printer to "Scale: 100%"

Many printers automatically resize to 94% or something, which will shrink the image and give you weird borders when you fold the zine.

Scale: 100%.

Over the last year, you could have given into anger and despair.

Instead, you’ve organized in the largest numbers this country has ever seen to reclaim the power of the pro-democracy majority.

We could not be more thankful for you and everything you’re doing to defy Trump’s agenda.

I am a leaf on the wind, watch how I soar, Charlie Brown.
This is what happens when you shoot a Red Baron in the Alps, Charlie Brown!
Yeah? Well, you know, that's just like uh, your opinion, Charlie Brown.

God we need more of this. Imagine even normalizing rejection emails in creative industries (menacingly looking at the comics industry with bloodshot eyes)
Woah!

Ontario passed a law starting Jan 2026 that it is illegal for companies to ghost you.

If you have interviewed for a job they are legally required to inform you if they hire someone else or close the position.

The law also requires salary transparency on listings and disclosing use of AI

Fine! I WILL brag about Medieval, and awesome comic I co-authored with @alexcormack.bsky.social, the first issue of which is available now. Learn more HERE: www.neilkleidbooks.com/books/medieval
One of the cruelest tricks society played on creative people was planting the idea that being proud of your work is somehow unseemly and egotistical.

You made a thing! You like it! You SHOULD be proud of it. Brag all you want!

This is a 19-paragraph article to which 7 journalists contributed; it contains not a single hint that there is any impropriety in the President of the United States directing the Justice Department to investigate his political adversaries.
