Folks always say “tell your people you love them” Hell I always tell people to do that. No one really reaches out to me. I need to just get offline. Nothing good is coming from being on right now

I miss doing the work I did in wrestling, although so peripheral it felt for a minute I had friends and peers. Almost like I mattered for a minute. I miss talking to workers and getting in their heads as I crafted merch and whatever they needed. I miss the collective and collaboration

for those wrestling-curious, this match is basically gold standard for the modern era: - two men at the top of their game - one is the classic "bruising bad guy" - the other has a "comedy gimmick" - the crowd is hyper-focused - the ref is perfect - the moves are sublime - the storytelling flawless

I know I don’t talk about wrestling a lot here, or much at all for a while. It’s a bit of an open wound for me. Tonight though I learned of the passing of PAC, who just wrestled yesterday is gutting. Man was so talented. I’ve been a fan since NXT. Too young. Far too young.

The storm seems to have downgraded to just pissing rain and 20-40mph winds.

I accidentally bought two copies of Super Mario Wonder off eBay. I was tired from not sleeping for two days and remembered I lost the cart, so I went on eBay to score one. I look today, I bought 2. So who wants one?

This nor’easter fucking sucks. We were doing ok for the most part, now the power is fluctuating. Round two of it is coming in a few hours

Seems I kicked the hornets nest on Twitter. I spoke up to some pro AI shit to refute their dumb shit. Every bot, sycophant, slop lover and some weirdo racist people descended upon me. I’m a gate keeper, my art sucks, I should off myself on repeat. At this point, keep your slop, choke on it

Also had to consult someone on getting rid of fallen trees in my backyard. So I need to work out the financial for that, they quoted me a grand. So if you have any project you need an artist for, please hit me up.

Oh and I finished Onimusha: way of the sword. Capcom totally did it again, great game. Highly recommended.

I’m working on a commission that’s an old NES game box, which led me down a rabbit hole of the whole graphic design styles used by every company that ever published on the platform

For those who might have forgotten, Dolly was always punk as fuck

"I made jokes about it, but it's the truth that I kind of patterned my look after the town tramp. I didn't know who she was, just this woman who was blonde and piled her hair up, wore high heels and tight skirts, and, boy, she was the prettiest thing I've ever seen. Mama used to say, 'Aw, she's just trash,' and I thought, That's what I want to be when I grow up. Trash."

My PS5, that I use mostly for streaming and my 4k movies is starting to shit the bed. I don’t care to replace it but I might have to unless I can get a proper deal on some other set up

I have to sort out equipment I bought over the past few weeks for streaming. New mics and all that. I’ve gotten things out of the box. That’s the step I’m at

This shit is why you can't separate continuing to financially support the Harry Potter IP (whether by buying the games, merch, watching the new TV show when its out) from the consequences of what JK Rowling does with that money She's become so stiflingly powerful that even private docs arent safe

So I started playing Final Fantasy XIV again. I’m trying Lancer for the first time, I haven’t played the game in a good 5+ years. Runs great on switch 2.

Anyways, how’s everyone? Doing anything cool? I have one commission going where I get to draw monsters. That’s about it.

I did see a new doctor and he gave me more info about what’s going on in my body than my old doctor. My old doctor would just tell me “things look rough but getting better” New guy explained shit

So I got this, one I liked the marvel Ultraman books, but the omnibus also had the comics from the 90’s included that haven’t been reprinted before. I’ve been looking for them for years

Guts are flared up like crazy, but I did get well into a commission, might even finish it today. And I did this.

Finally finished this leg of the coloring job. Don’t know when the next will start up so I’m open for work again. If anyone needs anything that is. I seem to have fallen out of the wrestling merch world completely. Not even remotely considered for most gigs. Bums me out but it is what it is.

This is horrifying. While a lot of us down here talking air quality and the sky being a funny color there are families losing everything, losing beyond everything. They need help.

Horrific flare up overnight, probably the worst since I got diagnosed. Gut bleed and I’m super nauseous. So yeah, monitoring things and ready to go to the hospital if necessary. Doc appointment booked.

The stupid heat is ridiculous. I hope everyone is staying safe and hydrated. New ultraman tonight, which is neat. I’ve barely been sleeping but doing a coloring job that’s kept me busy.
