🚨ALERT! No AI was used in my #Inktober drawings. I didn't "generate" this with some app. I used my talent, knowledge, experience and training to DRAW it with my own hand. Yes, really! Feel free to use your own brain to guess the #CritterCollectives group name... or google it and LEARN SUMTHIN.😁

Happy #Inktober! #CritterCollectives is my theme this year. Ever heard of "terms of venery"? There so many clever & fun animal group names I just HAD to draw em! Guess away, friends! With the drawing posed like this--- it look likes the Peanuts characters committed the crime & they're very proud😂

😱🤯I'M SUCH A RADICAL! maybe you assumed my platform was more like: jail all Christians, teachers can groom children to be trans, schools must have litter boxes for kids that identify as cats, a full ban on all guns & forced abortions for all. That's a sign you drank too much right wing kool-aid.

Hi from the Reuben Awards conference! I can only describe it as wonderful chaotic whirlwind. To be so focused on a lecture by THE Jim Davis, that you don't realize you're sitting at a table with THE Patrick McDonnell. 😱🤩 More to come when I come back down from this heavenly cartooning cloud!

Something to remember when the president blathers on about his rigged election nonsense tonight on your TV. He doesn't care about you and your problems. He only cares about his own power and grift machine that is the oval office.

The powers that be WANT us wasting our time defining communism vs socialism vs Marxism vs capitalism. The US is a mix as most countries are, the lines are blurry, but what's NOT blurry is who is indebted to the corporate wealthy class vs who represents the PEOPLE. OpenSecrets.org shows you the 💰💰💰

It's so hot... The data centers will use up your bottled water too. It's so hot... The snowballs that republicans will bring to the floor of congress to "disprove" climate change, melted in advance. It's so hot... For once trump isn't lying when he mumbles something about America being hot.

Z&F is nearly 20 years old-TOO OLD for an exhausting Kickstarter campaign. Ok-I'M too old 😆 BUT I still need help funding this book. So I'm making this VERY simple. Just subscribe/donate to my Ko-Fi page, or pre-order the book! Buy something else from the store, it all helps! ko-fi.com/dgriffstudios
