I have been making digital art since the days you had to plot pixels out on graph paper and hand-calculate their hexadecimal value to poke screen memory addresses while some old guy tells you the computer does all the work. linktr.ee/erickveil

The barrier to getting your players into a game of Brindlewood Bay is that you have to first get them to understand that EVERY SINGLE MYSTERY STORY is just a collection of circumstantial things that get tied together at the end, and not a puzzle to work out.

I may have some nostalgia bias, as Kill em All was my very first introduction to metal, and probably the reason I have an audiologist appointment next week.

Master is considered the best? I always ranked it: Kill em All, Garage Days, Ride the Lightning, *then* Master of Puppets. Then Justice. And those are the only albums I'll acknowledge.

My latest books cartoon for @theguardian.com
Two books talking 
Younger book  "What's happening?"
Older book  "The wheel of life has turned, my child... Our time on the front table of the bookshop is over, and, like brave birds flying south for the winter, we summer books must journey back to the shelves."

Younger book "But I like it here!"
Older book "All things must pass. The beach reads table you knew is already gone. The time of autumn books is upon us." 

Younger book "Will we ever return?" 
Older book "The cycle is eternal: the Christmas bestsellers and prize nominees will come and go, but people will always want something nice to read on holiday."

A New Color (1/5🧵)
Page 1: A man is walking home, smoking a cigarette, being quietly trailed by a UFO above him. As he enters his apartment, two aliens watch from inside the ship. Alien 1, who has a large head, says, “that’s him. Let’s move.” Page 2: The man walks upstairs as the aliens watch from the entrance of the building. The man enters his apartment and greets his little dog. Suddenly there is a knock at the door.Page 3: he peers through his peephole, and sees the two aliens standing in the hallway. Alien 1 is holding a briefcase. From behind him, the voice of alien one: “don’t scream.” Page 4: The aliens are seated across the room on the man’s couch. Sadie is in her bed next to them. Alien 1 says, “you’re not in any danger. Have a seat.” The man looks at his dog and thinks, “sadie is unusually calm.” Alien 1: don’t scream, or it’s a problem.

At last! I've been in a holding pattern where I just reread a book, knowing I'm going to have to immediately put it down no matter where I am on it when this one comes out.

I'm sorry but I invented Waziggy, a mean Ziggy who likes bad things and is rude. I invented him but I cannot control him, and I am afraid of him.
A cartoon character who looks very similar to beloved character Ziggy, but looks cruel and has a big "W" on his shirt

It blows my mind that you are able to finish things. That by itself no small task. I’ve finished a fraction of the things you have in about the same amount of time. And your stuff is cool on top of it!

Went into The City with some friends for a show and stopped at this little nothing of a place run by one guy. No sign. No name. Recommended the brisket. I've since learned to cook just so I could try to replicate it. I've been chasing that flavor for so long now. Decades.

I worked at a gas station for a summer job once. One of the owner's other stations got busted for selling to minors and so we had to card EVERYBODY for smokes. I was shocked how many people roll up to a gas station - in their car - with no ID on them.
