The Emma Frost x Miss Piggy comic has hit the internet and it's so, so, so much more magnificent than I ever could have hoped for
Emma Frost: "Emma Frost, darling. I'm a telepath. May I read your mind to ascertain if you're telling the truth?"

Miss Piggy: "But of course, darling I am an open book, a tell-all memoir."Emma Frost telepathically witnessing the entirety of Miss Piggy's life.Wolverine: "Frost? She legit?"
Emma Frost: "She's..She's... She's everything. And I would die for her."

My 3 year old has officially started daycare. I dropped him off. My house is empty and quiet. I am sad, but it'll be ok because he's having a great time and making friends.

To expand on my fic advice: Genuinely genuinely write for Yourself first and foremost. Write what you want to see, what speaks to you, what makes your heart sing. A creative hobby is what you make it and you are more than allowed to have fun with it- which is why i say do whatever You Want

When we took office, NYC had a $12B deficit. Today it’s zero. And we didn’t close that gap on the backs of working people. We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets, & public housing. Call it Pothole Politics or Democratic Socialism: We are government that delivers for the people.

Twenty people
A four frame comic about getting twenty likes on a piece of art online. The first frame shows a smartphone screen with a comic posted on a social media platform. The text reads: "Aw man, only 20 people liked my new drawing...". The second frame shows the artist looking at their phone, sad. The text reads: "Twenty...". The third frame shows the artist looking up in thought, thinking "Twenty people...". In the fourth frame, the artist pictures themselves in an art gallery with their art displayed, surrounded by twenty people looking at it.

4 panel silly comic in black lines only. A blob guy has a big pencil. It says “I draw”. In the second panel he seems happy with his drawing and it says “all done yeah”. Panel 3 shows him holding up the drawing of a triangle with legs and a happy face. He goes “come on”. In the final panel he’s very pleased with himself, closes his eyes and tells himself “I’m a bit incredible”
