With 6 HOURS LEFT in the ⭐50% OFF⭐ sale, I'd like to remind folks that we are confirmed Private Equity Collateral Damage & will be taking a hit on payouts from our distro, Ingram.

ICC will be absorbing the loss, NOT billing artists, so we would appreciate your patronage today!

Reminder to folks that you can get anything you want at The Map Center, even 8x10 glossy prints with a washable finish so you can draw circles and arrows on them, wipe them clean and reuse them. No need to send them to the landfill!
Also, we will be closed on Thanksgiving.

Revisiting my boss is terrible:

He told me I didn’t “challenge” or document enough in my process. It was a 2 week sprint.

I was out for 9 weeks on medical leave.

They assigned someone else to my project. Totally fine.
My boss didn’t know if we got Friday off 😑

I could use some help spreading the word.

My new little book is about two sisters who hunt down killers and collect body parts while complicating their lives with volatile magics, bizarre visions, and a mysterious mouth in the wall.

Think Junji Ito meets Little Women.

The Pluribus atom bomb scene makes me feel seen. It’s a conversation with an insane idiot. That’s what it like to live in 2025.

Sometimes being a certain kind of neurodivergent is saying to other NDs “we can only ask a friend for their unwanted furniture if we offer them food because they also have a sick parent.” And I was right.

Anyway, I’ve been up since 8am solving things and got drunk by accident at 4:30.

My one contribution to Housewives discourse is that one can find delicious pizza on Reservoir Avenue between Park Ave and Legion Way and that Pizza Momma is just a few doors away.

“Thrashed By A Lady Cyclist” is a great album name.
If women get too physically strong they'll beat the shit out of you and for that we must demonize any kind of exercise and hearty food for them
