Why is it that I can never remember if “talent” has one “L” or two, but have no problem flawlessly spelling the word “pterodactyl”?

New comic: Creative Spark by @egogala.bsky.social - As an artist, I use all kinds of technological tools. So why does AI feel distinctly repulsive to me? www.crucialcomix.com/comic/creati...

Kristen reaches out from a pixelated version of herself. The title of the comic reads "Creative Spark: As an artist, I use all kinds of technological tools. So why does AI feel distinctly repulsive to me?"

I’m having a hard time visually depicting selecting music to listen to in a comic. Do you think The Youth would know what a jukebox is? Or a record? Love, An out-of-touch millennial

I stayed at a B&B the other night that had no cable/streaming services, just one small TV and five DVDs, one of which was “March of the Penguins.” So I watched that. The movie is about how emperor penguins walk for weeks to reach their breeding grounds but I’m left with a BURNING QUESTION.

Using AI to produce writing or art is like asking someone at the gym to lift weights for you. The effort is the point.

1/28/25 People are weirdly dogmatic about breastfeeding. Truth is, this baby is heathy and well fed and my body gave her everything she needed to triple her body weight in six months. Go me. Now I’m ready to stop and IDGAF what anyone else has to say.

#altcomics
Caption: I’ve made a decision that has been gaining traction since last weekend
Image: me sitting in bed saying “you know what? I think I’m done breastfeeding.”

Caption: I’ve been sticking with breastfeeding to protect Gwen through flu season, but her flu shot and success formula feeding last weekend got me thinking…
Image: me breastfeeding Gwen and thinking “why am I doing this? I can never tell if you’re getting enough” and Gwen is fussing

Caption: truth is, there are a million reasons I want to stop breastfeeding…
Image: me holding balloons with the following captions
I have to pump to feel comfortable
She bit me last week
I’m the only one who can feed her
No weed
No bodily independence
It’s annoying
I have to watch what I drink
Leaky boobs
No freedom

Caption: but I think one is enough.
Image: me letting the balloons go, saying “I just… don’t wanna do it anymore!”

As usual, I'm truly impressed by everyone's hourly comic day contributions, and, as usual, I didn't participate 🥲 . This time, I have a good reason, as I'm overwhelmed with a tight deadline! This reminded me of an earlier comic I made, so I'm sharing it now!

Someday, my baby’s toots will cease to be cute and that will be a sad day.

I wish there was an easier way to add alt text to my comics without rewriting the whole damn thing inside of each panel image.

Caption: The news caught up with me today and with it, a heaping dose of depression and anxiety.
Image: Bishop Mariann Budde imploring trump to have mercy.
Caption: I think it was this heartfelt plea for compassion from a bully and his bully’s response

Caption: I threw myself into cooking but it didn’t help.
Image: me sniffing basil thinking “I just want to live in the scent of fresh basil”

Caption: then at Gwen’s 6 month appointment, I learned that in addition to her last round of vaccines, she was also eligible for flu and covid shots.
Image: Gwen getting vaccinated and crying with me going “good job Gwen!”

Caption: if Gwen can be brave today then so can I
Image: me comforting Gwen

I don't want this thread to be languishing at the old place, so: 11 IDEAS FOR ENLIVENING A COMICS PAGE. Some pages will just lay there, not engaging you. And if you're not engaged, the reader won't be either. Let’s talk about ways to solve that problem as artists. 🧵

Fun wedding in NYC! Never been to one in an urban environment or in the winter. Will comic about it later, I promise. 💃🪩🕺

I’m standing in front of Alex in my sparkly disco ball dress, posing with my arms as though pushing the walls and ceiling away. He’s draping white rope decor that’s hanging from the ceiling over our shoulders
