It's amusing to read Joe patiently answering a set of generic pre-scripted questions, and then later unilaterally decides to skip the Q&A format and just launch into an extended manifesto about design philosophy.

Kubrick's ‘The Shining’ and ‘The Muppet Show’ were filming next door to each other at Elstree Studios, and that’s how Danny Lloyd got to visit and hang with Kermit in 1979.

When it’s had one of “those posters”, you knew it’d be a good movie… Later I found out those posters were Drew Struzan. And then they became more than the movie, they became the goal if you just kept drawing… I’m still drawing! Haha!

RIP Mr. Struzan and thank you!

Normal.

Digital drawing of my catsona wearing a Maushold hoodie. They're surrounded by Tandemaus and Maushold merch, like plushies, trading cards, figurines, a mug and a bag. (I wish I owned that bag). Under the drawing the words "Normal" are written in the style of how Pokemon types are labelled, with bold letters and on a greyish square background
